Ben Carrington from More Than Words, Madison Falls 2 by @suebeehny #RLFblog #Contemporary
Interview with Ben Carrington
This interview is designed for your hero or heroine to tell
readers about himself or herself.Tell us about yourself, please.(Shrugs) (Looks up with gorgeous sky blue eyes)—(Reed, his
best friend, nudges him to get him to talk.) Okay! My name is Ben Carrington. I
co-manage Sutton Construction with the idiot next to me-OW! Damn it!-(Shoves
Reed back.) I’ve lived in Madison Falls a little over a year now. (Reed rolls
his hand in front of Ben in the “keep going” gesture.)I’m not that fond
of talking. What else? Oh, Reed called me after we got out of the Navy and
asked me to move here to help him after his dad retired. So, that’s it.Authors call what you
want but cannot have “the conflict” — what is yours?I’ve been in love with Tracy King, the owner of King’s Cake
in a Cup, almost since I moved here. I want to ask her out but can’t seem to
manage the words. I go to her shop all the time to try her cupcakes and listen
to her talk. I’m hoping she’ll take the hint and ask me out first.What can you not do (but
need to do) during this story?I need to be able to tell Tracy how I feel about her and the
real reason I’m so quiet all the time. I’m not a jerk, but like I said, I don’t
like to talk.What inner doubt
causes you the most difficulty?I’m afraid that Tracy will move on before I have a chance to
make my move. I also don’t want her to think less of me when I tell her my
secret.In the story world your author created, explain what it is
you fear most and why.Tracy’s dad is out of prison and wants money from her. I’m
afraid he’ll try to hurt her to get what he wants. He’s ruthless and I want to
keep her safe at my house.Tell us about your
significant other, that person who makes living worthwhile.(A slow smile spreads over Ben’s face and his eyes light
up.) Tracy is…(He gives Reed a warning glare to keep quiet.) Tracy is
everything I’ve ever wanted in a woman. She’s beautiful, outgoing, smart, and,
well, she’s everything. I love her so much, I run extra miles to stay in shape
because I eat so many of her cupcakes. Try them. They’re the best.About the Writer
Susan Behon,
author of the Madison Falls Series, enjoys creating a world that brings readers romance, laughter, and a healthy dose
of sexiness. Susan graduated summa cum laude with a B. A. in English from
Norfolk State University. She currently lives in Ohio with her very own romance
hero of a husband and their two wonderful daughters.What was your biggest
challenge in writing this book?I think my biggest challenge was in making Ben an awesome
book boyfriend since he doesn’t talk much. I had to help him convey his
feelings in other ways.Why did you choose
this character for the interview today?Ben needs to learn to open up and talk to more people. I’m
trying to get him to be more of a people person.When writing the
book, what did you discover about this character that surprised you?Still waters run deep with Ben Carrington. He may look tall,
dark, and quiet, but his inner thoughts will throw you for a loop.Are any sequels
planned for this book?Absolutely. I planned it as a series. I am currently writing
Book #3, Keith’s story.What genre(s) would
you like to write that you haven’t tried yet?I would love to try romantic suspense or maybe a paranormal
romance.What would your
readers be surprised to learn about you?I’m a left-handed, green-eyed, triplet who happens to have a
mad addiction to Reese’s cups.Why should readers
who haven’t picked up one of your books before give this one a try?It has everything: romance, steamy love scenes, humor,
action, suspense, and an intriguing story line.Is there anything
you’d like to say to your readers?Please, please, please buy my book(s)! You’ll fall in love
with the characters and walk away with a smile on your face.About the Book

media contacts for the author. Today’s featured book is Fallen Angel: A Mafia
Romance Part 1 by Alisa Anderson and Cameron Skye.About the Book
Title Fallen Angel: A Mafia Romance Part 1Genre Erotic RomanceAuthor Alisa Anderson & Cameron SkyeBook heat level (based on movie ratings): RWhen Jess packed up her belongings and fled her small hometown in Kansas, she never looked back. Free from her family’s dark past she was finally able to pursue her lifelong dream as a professional dancer. She never expected to find herself at his door…or at his club.
Nick was unlike any other man she had ever met. Sexy…Alluring…Predatory. Dangerous. The kind of man with more secrets than even she had. Every instinct warned Jess against knowing him further, but she always did like playing with fire…
Nick Roman took one look at Jess and knew she was trouble from the very start. But something about the defiant twist of her mouth and the wide, haunted eyes of a damaged soul touched him in places he had long ago thought dead. He knew he needed to stay far away from her for his own sanity, but like a moth to a flame he was helpless to resist…
Working at Takers Gentleman’s Club was the last place Jess thought she would find herself, but she quickly learned how the game was played.
See what you want, take what you can get…but at what cost?

About the Author
Well…Alisa did stuff and
is still doing stuff. only now she has two boys crazy enuff to want her as
their mommy. hey, at least she tried to warn them, so her job is done. she
doesn’t like to capitalize, partially because she likes how lower case letters
look visually, but mostly out of laziness. please don’t judge. it could be you.
and she would say, hey. you’re alright, buddy. you’re ok in my book. now c’mere
for a hug. the hug might be pushing it. air kiss? you are strangers, after all,
with only a mutual love of poor grammar.She lives for a world full
of controllable anatomically correct, android men programmed to meet her
specific feminine needs (wink, wink, nudge, nudge with a big waggle of the
eyebrows). who look like the rock. and ian somerhalder. and idris elba. and
that’s it she promises. variety. gotta have variety, right?But alas…apparently
that exists only in johanna lindsey’s genius mind. so until then, she enjoys
her incredibly warped sense of humor. she reads tons of erotica and romantic,
drippy goo that makes her heart go pitter patter. then she thought, hey. what,
she said to herself. (softly, of course, so no one finds out she is indeed, 2
nuts short of a fruitcake) maybe you should write this stuff too. maybe someone
will like it and maybe buy it. so she said, huh, you think? then she said,
well…yeah, i wouldn’t have suggested it…(inserts sarcastic tone) and then
she was like lose the attitude, ok? then she was all, would you just shut up
and write, already? sheesh! and she did. :)Author Social Media

Ruth Kaufman author of Follow Your Heart answers five easy questions
to help readers get to know her better.Author Bio
Ruth Kaufman is a Chicago author,
on-camera and voiceover talent and freelance editor and speaker who loves
chocolate peanut butter milkshakes and singing in a chorus.Her
second medieval, FOLLOW YOUR HEART, released in April. Writing accolades
include Romance Writers of America® 2011 Golden
Heart® winner and runner up in RT
Book Reviews’ national American Title II contest.Learn more at www.ruthkaufman.com and www.ruthtalks.com. Follow her on Twitter:
@RuthKaufman or Facebook: Ruth
Kaufman Author & Actress.Describe the perfect vacation.The perfect vacation I already had was to England and Wales
in part because I spent a night in two different castles. One (Amberley) was
more medieval, and the other (Thorndale) more modern, but both were amazing
inside and out. I also visited some of King Edward I’s castles (Beaumaris,
Conwy, Caernarfon and Harlech), designed to be a day’s march apart. The
Snowdonia region in Wales is one of the most beautiful places I’ve been. The
perfect vacation I hope to have would be to Italy, including Siena and Cinque
Terre.Tell us about your
favorite toy as a child.This will date me, but my favorite toy was my Beautiful
Crissy doll. She had the most amazing, shiny red hair you could make longer or
shorter. I liked her hair at its longest, probably because I had black, curly
hair that was hard to control and so often kept short. I just loved her hair.What are your hobbies?Two day jobs (writing and acting) can keep me pretty busy. I
enjoy singing in a symphony chorus. We usually perform major works such as
Poulenc’s Gloria or Orff’s Carmina Burana, but just completed a Rodgers and
Hammerstein concert at Chicago’s Orchestra Hall featuring approximately 200
singers, 70 musicians and 8 soloists. Our maestro received permission from to
customize a program of 23 songs. In season, we rehearse one night a week.When you read for pleasure,
what kind of books do you choose?I choose historicals and historical fiction, mostly, though
I also enjoy paranormals. I also want to read friends’ books, but it’s hard to
keep up! Right now I’m reading a friend’s historical fiction set around the
Chicago Fire, and another friend’s contemporary. While I still prefer an actual
book when possible, the Kindle app has made it easy to acquire and carry around
a “stack,” so I flit between books more than I used to.What kinds of things do
you read when you’re researching a new book?It depends on the genre I’m writing. For medievals, I’ve
collected more than 200 books on 15th century England. There’s great
information on the Internet, but it’s rare to find the level of detail I need.
In my current release, Follow Your Heart, the heroine is a stained glass
painter, so I had a great time seeking out books on medieval stained glass and
the techniques used to create it. If I’m writing a contemporary, I go online to
research the characters’ careers or review notes from an interview I’ve done.About the Book
Title Follow Your HeartGenre HistoricalAuthor Ruth KaufmanBook heat level (based on movie ratings): RStrong-willed Joanna Peyntor has
two uses for a man: to pose for a stained glass window design or to commission
her skills. But when her brother conspires to ruin her reputation, she concedes
to a third: a husband to help save her glass-painting workshop.Sir Adrian Bedford must marry
without delay on his quest to redeem his family name and lands. Who’d accept an
impoverished former nobleman insisting upon an unusual stricture in their
marriage contract? But Joanna, a woman striving to succeed in a man’s world,
agrees that discussions of a personal nature are prohibited.When irresistible attraction makes their marriage of
convenience inconvenient, will his dangerous secrets keep them from following
their hearts?Buy This Book
