Vordol’s Vow by Dena Garson @DenaGarson #RLFblog #SciFi #Romance
Dena Garson, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Vordol’s Vow by Dena Garson
Genre Sci-Fi Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
A long time ago Vordol Silveira learned that if he wanted to become the best bodyguard in the galaxy he needed to keep everyone except his brothers at arm’s length. That vow served him well until he runs into the now grown-up daughter of his former mentor while working a security job aboard the LS Quantum.
Pitannah Lorento is a Quantum waitress who dreams of winning this year’s intergalactic burlesque competition in order to pay for her mother’s expensive medical treatment. Seeing Vordol again brings back years of unfulfilled desires – a distraction she doesn’t need. Yet, she’s no longer an awkward teenager and he is sexier than ever.
Vordol’s client’s safety has always come first but when Pitannah is threatened, his heart demands he make her priority. If he somehow manages to keep them both safe through the competition, his vow may become obsolete.
Why did you write this book?
Two reasons. One, there were several secondary characters in Rege’s Rescue that I wanted to follow up on to see how their stories turned out. And two, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to write in the world that the ladies with SFR Shooting Stars created. The LS Quantum star cruiser was a fun setting to explore.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Romance. I hop between historical, paranormal, sci-fi, fantasy, and contemporary based on my mood.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Kinda depends on the day. I love so many – from Scooby Doo to Princess Leia to Mr. Darcy. There are just too many to pick only one!!
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m outlining another steampunk romance and finishing a contemporary romance.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I plan to do a Christmas steampunk romance at the end of this year. And if I get my butt into gear and finish my contemporary, I’d like to release it by year end also.Where to buy Vordol’s Vow

Wherever Love Finds You by Laura Haley-McNeil @laurarmcneil #RLFblog #NewRelease #Contemporary Romance
Laura Haley-McNeil, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Wherever Love Finds You by Laura Haley-McNeil
Genre Contemporary Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13
It’s his game. He makes the rules. Rule number one – only he can break the rules.
Zach Lowe lives his life without relationships in business and personally. Getting involved doesn’t work well when you’re the Black Knight of Wall Street.
Ellora Duvall, the sweet kid who crushed on him in high school, waltzes into the world of corporate finance with the same wide eyed innocence she had in chemistry class. He hadn’t expected her to affect him the way she did, but he’s in control. A few weeks with Ellora will be pure pleasure, then he’ll move on. She’ll understand. He should, too.
Who broke his rules?
Why did you write this book?
I’ve wanted to write a brides series for years. I wanted to write stories where the characters fall in love and get married. One of the settings for this first is New York City, a place I adore. I devour books based in New York. As this story developed, I had to make sure what the characters said and did was typical of New York. These characters have been developing in the back of my mind until I had to stop what I was doing and just write the story. It was great fun writing the story and brought back a lot of memories.
What is your favorite genre to read? I have a couple. I love historical romances based in the south. I mean, who doesn’t want to marry Rhett Butler? And I love romantic suspense. Mr. and Mrs. Smith is one of my favorite movies. I love how Angelina Jolie is Brad Pitt’s equal.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
I think I gave it away earlier, but I do adore Scarlett. She’s so strong and she loves her family. She can completely ignore what they think of her and know that it’s her responsibility to make sure they have food in their mouths and a roof over her head. She forges ahead with blinders on. Nothing sways her from her goals. I love that attitude.
What are you working on at the moment?
The 7th book of the Crystal Creek Series is with the copyeditor. I’m excited because it gave me a chance to rewrite the ending of a very famous musical. The famous musical totally has the wrong ending, and it gave me the opportunity to create a heroine with my favorite career. I hope to release the book in September. Now that the release date is in writing, I’d better release it in September. LOL!
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I’m working on another Crystal Creek Boxed Set which I hope to release in time for Christmas! Ho! Ho! Ho! And I’m about halfway through the 1st draft of the 2nd book in the Beaumont Brides Series which is set in my 2nd favorite city in the whole world—Charleston, South Carolina.Where to buy Wherever Love Finds You

Chris Redding, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Destiny of a Gargoyle by Chris Redding
Paranormal Romance Heat Level: PG
He was born in a time when magic ruled the Earth.
Gargoyles protected fairies from goblins. His family was a group of elite gargoyles who were assigned to protect a specific fairy. His father’s dereliction of that duty cursed his sons to become stone and wait.
Now reawakened in the twenty first century where no one believes in magic how is he going to convince his fairy that she is one and that she is in danger from a goblin?
He must do that without falling in love with her.
Why did you write this book?
I’ve had a fascination with gargoyles since I visited Notre Dame in Paris a few years ago. When I had the time to write it I’d just visited Ireland so I chose to have them be Irish gargoyles.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Paranormal Romance
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Jim Beckett from Lisa Gardner’s The Perfect Husband. Just the mention of his name gives me chills because he was so bad.
What are you working on at the moment?
The third in the series, Calling of a Gargoyle. It’s about the last brother.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
Fate of a Gargoyle and Calling of a Gargoyle should be out in the next few months along with probably the first in a series of sweet romances set on an island in the Carribean called Matchmaker Island.Where to buy Destiny of a Gargoyle

Hunters’ Watch Brigade:The Game by Paula Millhouse @pmillhouse #RLFblog #NewRelease #UF #PNR #gamers
Paula Millhouse, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Thank you so much for hosting me during release week, Kayelle! I’m here to chat about my latest book, Hunters’ Watch Brigade: The Game. It’s always a good day to visit Romance Lives Forever. I love your site, and everything you do for the romance community. *Big cyberwaves to the crowd*
Hunters’ Watch Brigade: The Game
Genre: Urban Fantasy with a strong side of paranormal romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R, for some steamy romance, and a little bit of Supernatural chaos.
A demigod’s work is never done…
All monster hunter Samantha Silverton wants is a little R and R. She and her sexy partner, cat shifter Max, have a week off in the city that never sleeps, and she intends to enjoy it. But before she can unpack her suitcase, she’s caught up in the middle of a wicked game—a smartphone app driven scavenger hunt that’s bringing all the big, bad Supernaturals to NYC to play. The bad part? The game was the brainchild of Alex Van Dam—Sam’s first love. What’s worse? She has to play alone.
Maximillion Ra hasn’t quite got a handle on his unique shifter magic yet. He’s in love with Sam, but if he’s ever going to be any good to her, he has to face his family’s curse. But how can he leave Sam now, especially with her old flame in the picture?
Alex Van Dam isn’t interested in who wins his game. He just wants to find the final prize—an ancient Greek relic. Once he has it, he’ll use the artifact’s magic to control all the Supernaturals in Manhattan, starting with the Hunters’ Watch Brigade.
Only Sam stands in his way. And without Max by her side, even the monster hunting daughter of Poseidon has to wonder if she stands a chance…
Why did you write this book?
Thank you for asking, Kayelle! We’ve gotten great response from readers for Hunters’ Watch Brigade: Initiation, the first novel in my series. This is the second book and follows Sam and Max’s adventures as they fall in love while fighting Supernatural chaos in New York City.
I don’t like how devices interfere with conversations with people in real life. I wondered what would happen if someone designed a game people played on their phones and it caused all sorts of Supernatural chaos.
I combined my love for scavenger hunts and visiting famous sites in the city of Manhattan to create an adventure readers will love.
I also love the Greek Pantheon, so The Game allowed me to send Samantha up to Mount Olympus to visit her Uncle Zeus and her cousin Artemis along with her father Poseidon. She gets to ride Pegasus, one of my favorite scenes!
What is your favorite genre to read?
I like most genres, but my favorite is Urban Fantasy with strong paranormal romance elements. I like magic in my stories, and a heavy dose of heart thumping romance.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Right now, Cat Crawfield from Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress series. And I love her even more when Bones is on the page too.
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m happy to say I’m working on Hunters’ Watch Brigade: Betrayal, the third book in my series planned for release later this year with ImaJinn Books.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
My awesome editor Brenda over at ImaJinn books and I are collaborating on a spin-off series with characters from the Hunters’ Watch Brigade. We’ll be picking on the Egyptian Pantheon in those stories.Where to buy Hunters’ Watch Brigade: The Game

Stealing the Billionaire’s Heart by Robin Michaela The Billionaire’s Club Limited Edition Collection @Robinsromances #RLFblog #NewRelease #Billionaireromance
Robin Michaela, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Stealing the Billionaire’s Heart
Genre Contemporary
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Lyra Bretton is stunned when she’s abandoned at the altar. Figuring the best way to get over one man is to get under another one, she combs the luxurious Las Vegas resort where she was to be married, intent on spending her almost-wedding night with the sexiest man she can find.
Billionaire womanizer, Nicolas Sebastian, is tempted by the beautiful bride’s shocking proposal. The workaholic COO of the family hotel chain can’t deny his attraction to the woman who should be weeping in her room instead of shredding her wedding gown in his lounge. Their chemistry is explosive, but Nicolas has been burned before. He’ll never commit his heart because he learned years ago that women are only interested in his wallet.
Their Vegas fling soon turns into something neither of them can control. But, when they travel to his lavish property in Italy, money goes missing and expensive jewelry turns up in Lyra’s possession, putting their fragile future in jeopardy. Unless they can find a way to trust again, they risk losing each other forever.
Why did you write this book?
I thought it would be fun to play with someone else’s money, plus I’d get to “experience” life through a character who has more wealth than he knows what to do with. Turns out, it’s harder to write about having that kind of money than you’d think. I had to stretch to imagine having a private jet on call or what it would be like to live in a palazzo in Venice.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Although I read a variety of genres, contemporary romance is my favorite.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
I really like Mark Watney from The Martian (by Andy Weir). He’s emotionally strong and smart and resourceful. He never gives up, despite the overwhelming odds he faces. And he has a great sense of humor, which can usually help people get through the worst of times.
What are you working on at the moment?
I was recently diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer, so my immediate focus isn’t on writing, but on completing chemo and my upcoming surgeries. That being said, when I feel well enough between treatments, I’m busy plotting out the next books in the Sebastian Billionaire series.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
As soon as I’m able, I’ll be working on more Sebastian Billionaire books – one for each of Nicolas’ siblings: Melissa, Brayden and Caden (they’re twins).Where to buy Stealing the Billionaire’s Heart
