    Bryony, a shifter mermaid, has run away with sexy witch Maia, and now they’re living the dream in Las Vegas. But Maia is hiding a secret. When her ex, a super-hot warlock, turns up, Bryony can’t fight her attraction to him. Will she choose him? Or Maia? Or both?

    Know Bryony, the Heroine from Love Comes in Many Shapes in Rainbow Desire

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your heroine.

    It’s late, she’s bored. What does she do?

    Go for a swim in the pool. She spends as much time as she can in water.

    What kind of food would she impulse buy if hungry?

    Like all shifter merfolk, she loves seafood. She likes the fried squid and shrimps from her local Chinese restaurant.

    Describe the kind of clothes she prefers to wear.

    As little as possible! Clothes are a hindrance when shifting. Fortunately the climate in Las Vegas enables her to waft around in a bikini and shorts most of the time.

    Does she know how to fix things?

    Yes, she grew up the only girl in a household of mermen, and learned to fix broken things – boats, kettles, pipes…

    She tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.

    When Maia, a witch, came to the Morvann islands, Bryony fell in love with her. She tried to tell her family and Clan about their relationship, but they freaked out and ordered her to break up with Maia. Mermen are a conservative lot, and she was the first openly gay mermaid on the islands. As a result she ran off to the US with Maia.

    How does she act around children she doesn’t know?

    She loves children and is very natural with them. In her job as an entertainer for a hotel in Las Vegas, she often interacts with children and loves it.

    What is she like first thing in the morning?

    Bright and perky, ready to seize the day. Maia on the other hand is a night owl and doesn’t start smiling until about 10 am.

    How does she act around people who don’t know what she is?

    She acts as natural as possible. Officially only Maia knows that she is a shifter mermaid, though her manager and some of her colleagues at the hotel suspect something. She changes into her mermaid shape as part of the show, and though she pretends it’s a costume, some who see her up close can guess that it’s not. But hey, it’s Vegas, anything goes.

    Will she let a worker handle things or do it herself?

    She will do it herself if she can. She likes fixing things, and also she is prudent with money.

    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?

    Unadorned skin. Mermaids usually avoid piercings and jewelry as it causes issues when shifting from human to aquatic form.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Neither. Unlike Maia she doesn’t drive. She take taxis a lot, or Maia drives her.

    Recycle or toss?

    Recycle. Merfolk respect the environment.

    Thanks for helping us get to know your heroine!

    Meet the hero from Lord Stanton’s Shocking Seaside Honeymoon by Cerise DeLand @CeriseDeLand #RFLblog #RegencyRomance

    Meet the hero from Lord Stanton's Shocking Seaside Honeymoon by Cerise DeLand @CeriseDeLand #RFLblog #RegencyRomanceWhen a storm blows off the North Sea and slams into the village of Fenwick on Sea, the villagers prepare for the inevitable: shipwreck, flood, land slips, and stranded travelers. The Queen’s Barque Inn quickly fills with the injured, the devious, and the lonely—lords, ladies, and simple folk; spies, pirates, and smugglers all trapped together. Intrigue crackles through the village, and passion lights up the hotel.

    One storm, eight authors, eight heartwarming novellas.

    Lord Stanton’s Shocking Seaside Honeymoon by Cerise DeLand

    Genre A Regency era Romance novella and part of the Storm and Shelter collection by The Bluestocking Belles and Friends.

    Storm and Shelter is available now for Pre-order at $.99, on April 13, 2021—release day—the price goes up.

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG-13

    Lord Stanton is about to marry for the second time. But his bride is so different from his first wife, now deceased. Josephine Meadows is her father’s heir to his far-flung merchant marine trading company. She’s smart, savvy and beautiful. What’s more, she’s in love with Stanton. Madly. And she has been for lo, these past six years. But now, just as they marry and go off to their first night together, and just as each is ready to prove to the other, their love, an agent of Josephine’s goes missing on the high seas. And both of them, though eager to consummate their vows, must go off to discover if the agent is dead…or alive.

    Know the Hero from Lord Stanton’s Seaside Honeymoon

    It’s late, he’s bored. What does he do?

    Stanton, of late, likes poetry. Love sonnets to be exact! He’s eager to claim his new bride in all ways and reading erotic words is not what he should be doing!

    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?

    “I have simple tastes. But I do enjoy a finely done roast of beef.”

    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.

    “I wore a uniform whilst in the Hussars and now I prefer my black superfine. My tailor is a marvel and I need not appear in his shop to be fitted. This is a blessing as I am a busy man working in Whitehall to defeat that scoundrel Napoleon.”

    Valet or takes care of himself?

    “I do employ a valet. A fine fellow who knows how precisely I wish to dress. More than that, he is astute and knows when to appear and when to vanish!”

    Necktie/cravat or open shirt?

    “I do appreciate a cravat tied in such a manner as to remain tied!”

    Carriage or horseback?

    “Both means of conveyance have their uses. A horse is a proper beast for quick travel. Also, sadly, for the battlefield. Of carriages, I demand comfort and the best springs. No use breaking one’s bones in order to arrive at a tea party, eh?”

    Once upon a time a group of writer friends–helping a member with a particularly difficult thread in a continuity series contrived by her editors–got the grandiose idea to create a continuity series of their own.
    Yes, this was us, and we threw ourselves wholeheartedly into developing characters, fashioning families, family dynamics, and a setting, which evolved from one member’s love of all things Colorado. We created family trees, character profiles, detailed maps, brainstormed titles and themes. We collected photos and researched and even started the stories. We proposed our idea to a few publishers and got no traction. So, after a time the contracted books came first, two members dropped out of the group, a couple new ones came and went. But the core group remained.
    In a tragic turn of events we lost a beloved friend and co-writer. Grief took the remaining wind from our sails. We recovered slowly, welcomed a new friend to our critique group. Then came a day when we got together and said, “We’re going to get serious and do this!” Energy built, and the series took on new life. A previous co-creator joined us again. Now, here we are, years after the initial idea, sharing the finished stories with you and hoping you will feel the same intensity and appreciation for this project as we do.
    We have many more stories to share, and the ideas keep coming. Look for more books to follow in Aspen Gold: The Series.
