    Break Through the Ice by Rachell Nichole

    When Jasmine Graves is invited to the set of the movie based on her book series, she thinks all her dreams have come true. The Vince Demarco, the man she’s based her hero on for the past seven years, will be there and she can’t wait to meet him. Little does she know that she’ll have to face her worst fears to keep her leading man.
    Vince Demarco has never been as intrigued by a character or an author before being introduced to the haunted werewolf he’s been cast to play. So when he comes face to face with its creator, Jasmine Graves, he’s awestruck. But he fears an author who’s a reported recluse will want nothing to do with the paparazzi madness and crazy shooting schedule that comes with dating a movie star.
    Neither one can deny the almost animal attraction that overwhelms them at first contact. But can an author and her muse breakthrough the barriers between them, or will the heat between them turn to ice in the winter cold of the Adirondack Camp?

    Becker Circle by Addison Brae

    Genre: Contemporary Romantic Suspense
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): Rated R
    My first and only boyfriend believed I was too gutless to leave. He was dead wrong. My name’s Gillian, and I graduated Harvard early and left his hot temper and everyone else behind for Dallas. Determined to make it on my own, I land a second job bartending at the neighborhood pub smack in drama central where most every jerk in the neighborhood hits on me—at a huge price.
    A week into the job, the neighborhood’s very popular drug dealer falls to his death a few feet from the table I’m serving. The cops say suicide, but the hot guitar player in the house band and I suspect foul play, and I intend to prove it. We dig deeper, grow closer, and make a shocking discovery. We know the murderer. Watch the trailer.

    this book is part of a series?
    Maybe.
    you lost sleep while writing this book?

    Yes. Much of the book takes place in bars, so I spent lots of time talking to bartenders and bar patrons.

    you love to read?
    Yes. Just about anything, but especially thrillers, mysteries, young adult, and a good biography.
    you are never late?
    No. Well, rarely.
    you love pizza?

    you love sushi?
    Yes. I didn’t have it for the first time until way into adulthood.
    you have a pet?
    Yes. She’s a neurotic cat with a huge vocabulary named Lucy that’s 10 going on 10 months.

    The Silver and Gold Deception by Brenda G Bradley @BGTDS #RLFblog #RomanticSuspenseBrenda G Bradley, 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.

    The Silver and Gold Deception by Brenda G Bradley

    Romantic Suspense

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG

    Dee thinks her life is finally perfect; she’s found her “Mr. Right” and she has a great job.
    Things are going great until four masked men rob the store where she works—then things start to go wrong.
    Bad luck seems to follow her everywhere, and when she finds a corpse in her bed, she knows she needs help. Mayhem ensues when her oddball neighbors try to help when the F.B.I suspects she’s the mastermind behind the robbery.

    QUICK

    Do you write more than one genre? If so, what are they?…

    No.

    How do you come up with ideas?…

    My books are based on events and places I have experienced. When I was in a jewelry store that had a big picture window near the sidewalk, I wondered what if the place was robbed. That sparked the idea for The Silver and Gold Deception.

    What is the single most important part of writing for you?…

    I have always made up stories in my head even as a small child. Now I get to put them on paper and share them with the world.

    When did you write your first book?…

    I worked for the state of Maryland for thirty years. The year after I retired, I wrote my first book.

    Lies and Solace by Jana Richards

    She can’t live with one more lie. He can’t tell the truth.
    Harper Lindquist is convinced she’s found the answer to her financial prayers. Unless she pours cash into crumbling Solace Lake Lodge, she’ll lose her family’s legacy. Her would-be savior arrives in the middle of a Minnesota blizzard and she’s determined to prove to her reluctant, and trapped, financier the lodge is a sound investment. But Harper isn’t completely honest with him. And she has no idea the lake is hiding secrets of its own.
    Ethan James is a liar, but his money is very real. He isn’t convinced a broken-down inn is a smart investment opportunity. But the more he understands Harper’s dreams and desires, the more he wants to be the man to make them come true. The trauma in both their pasts means neither can fully trust the other. They must find the courage to love, to trust, and to accept, or yesterday’s sorrows will keep them apart.

    Tatia’s Tattoo by Linda Brendle @LindaBrendle #RLFblog #NewRelease #LegalThriller

    Tatia's Tattoo by Linda Brendle @LindaBrendle #RLFblog #NewRelease #LegalThrillerLinda Brendle, 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.

    Tatia’s Tattoo by Linda Brendle

    Genre Legal Thriller
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG
    As a successful D.C. lawyer, Tatia’s mission in life was to destroy the sex trafficking trade in small-town America. She knew where to find it. She’d been there. With only apathetic foster parents to protect her, she fell prey to the local pimp. Trapped in the sordid underbelly of a small Texas town, she survived by sheer will. Her friendship with her fellow victim Cindy was the only light of humanity in the darkness until she saw a familiar face. Would Mrs. G, a mama bear of an attorney, still think she had strength and potential? Would Jesse, the young Christian tattoo artist and biker, still look at her with a twinkle in his eyes? Or would they both see only the mark of shame Eric had etched onto her forearm?
    Why did you write this book?
    I live in a tiny town in East Texas that feels isolated and safe from the world. Several years ago I was shocked when a couple gave a presentation at our church about their organization, one that fights the sex-trafficking trade in a slightly larger town about fifty miles from where I live. The name of the organization is For the Silent, and it is my hope that Tatia’s Tattoo will help give a voice to the exploited children and youth who cannot speak for themselves.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    I’ve been a mystery fan since I discovered Agatha Christie when I was in the fifth grade.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    There are many, but the first one that comes to mind is Spenser, the main character in Robert B Parker’s Spenser Series.
    What are you working on at the moment?
    I’m beginning edits on the rough draft of Fallen Angel Salvage, a sequel in which we visit Tatia and her family ten years later.
    What books will we see from you in coming months?
    I have a second memoir that is due to come out shortly after Tatia’s Tattoo, but I don’t have a release date yet. It is called Mom’s Long Good-Bye and is the “rest of the story” after my first memoir, A Long and Winding Road.

Tatia’s Tattoo will be followed soon by Fallen Angel Salvage, the continuing story of Tatia, her family, and Eric ten years later.
    In semi-retirement from the business world, Linda holds a part-time job as secretary for her church and an on-line position as an accounting specialist for BookPros. She also writes a column for the weekly newspaper in the tiny East Texas town where she and her husband David live with their feral cat Kitty.
