First of all, Hi Rachel, and thanks for
sharing your blog with me today!
1) Who is your favourite author and why?
There are so many authors I enjoy that I
don't believe I could pick just one. Mary Balogh comes to mind, though, as
someone who really evokes emotion in a story. That's something I'm drawn to as
a reader and try to emulate as an author.
2) When did you first consider yourself a writer?
I've considered myself a writer "in my
head" ever since I was young and discovered I had a talent for writing
stories. I think I considered myself an "official writer" when my
first book got published. There's nothing like having someone else believe in
your work—someone who's not your friend or your momJ.
3) Describe your writing space?
My writing space is on the sofa with my dog
Iris curled up next to me or on my bed with my cats walking all over me.
4) What are you reading now?
I'm one of those people that usually has
three or four books going at a time. Right now I'm reading Lethal Limits by Mia Downing, Unlaced
by Lynne Connolly and Ashes and Wine
by Taryn Elliott.
5) How many books have your written? Which is your favourite?
If you're talking about published books,
I've written five and one short story. I've written several books that will
never see the light of day because they're such messes. But they say the first
million words are just practice. J As
for which one's my favorite, that's like asking "Who's your favorite
child?" Each one means something special to me. My latest release His and Hers and Hers is special
because it's my first ménage romance, and it's an FFM ménage.
6) What comes first, plot or characters?
It depends. Some of my stories stem from a
situation that makes me wonder "What if…" I suppose that's the plot
coming first. Other times, I'm captured by a character. His and Hers and Hers came about when I was thinking about what
might happen when a third person is invited into an established couple's
relationship. Will the relationship survive? If the third person is a friend,
will the friendship be destroyed? What happens when messy emotions like love,
fear and jealousy come into play?
7) Do you ever suffer from writer’s block?
I haven't so far, knock on wood (*knocking
on my head*). But whenever I finish something I get a bit nervous, hoping I'll
be able to pull off another book.
8) What do you like to do when you’re not writing?
I'm pretty boring. I like to read, watch
movies and hang out with my pets. I used to roller skate, but all the roller
rinks near me have closed up L.
9) Tell us about your latest book?
As I mentioned earlier, His and Hers and
Hers is an FFM ménage romance. Here's a blurb:
Kyla
Denster and Jordan Brougham are passionately in love. Kyla knows she's lucky to
have a guy who uses all his tricks to keep her happy in and out of bed. Jordan
knows he's lucky to have such a hot, adventurous girlfriend.
But
neither of them knows that their best friend, Cassie DeSantis, wants them both.
Cassie's painful past has taught her not to wear her heart on her sleeve. She keeps quiet, afraid that revealing
her feelings would mean losing the two people she cares for most. Things change one night when an
impulsive kiss leads to the three of them spending an incredibly hot night
together.
When
the couple wants more of Cassie, she leaps at the chance to be with them. But
problems arise at her insistence that no one mention the L word and when Jordan
and Kyla clash over how to deal with disapproving family. Their triad relationship will only
survive if they all stand together to prove that three is the perfect
number—when all three are in love.
Let me also share an excerpt with you:
She
heard Jordan’s low rumble and Ky’s giggle. Then Kyla’s voice came from the
doorway. “Cassie.”
Cassie’s mouth went
dry. Kyla stood there wearing nothing but a tiny black thong and an impish
grin. Her hard brown nipples pointed straight at Cassie and her generous
breasts begged to be caressed and kissed. Cassie’s own nipples tightened in
response.
Kyla’s eyes flashed
as though she knew exactly how turned on Cassie was. Her smile hitched a little
higher. “Dessert is now being served. In the bedroom.”
Cassie pushed back
her chair and rose, her body tingling with anticipation. Kyla beckoned her with
a crooked finger and Cassie followed her down the hall. When they reached the
bedroom, Kyla stopped.
“One thing. Entrance
here requires special dress. Or undress,
I should say.” She smiled. “Let me help.”
Ky assisted as Cassie
stepped out of her shoes, socks, and pants and peeled off her top. When she
stood only in her bra and panties, Ky stepped in close. “I’ll undo your bra.”
Her warm breath tickled Cassie’s neck, her bare breasts, and hard brown nipples
teased Cassie’s skin as she wrapped her arms around Cass and unfastened her
bra.
“You can keep those
on…” Ky traced her finger down the seam of Cassie’s pink bikini panties. “For
now.”
Cream drenched her
pussy at the wicked promise in Kyla’s tease. Ky took her hand and drew her
through the doorway. “Come on.”
Jordan sat on the
bed, in a pair of black briefs, already distended by his rising cock. Dark hair
dusted his chest, and Cassie’s fingers itched to feel its texture, and the warm
skin underneath. More than that, she wanted to caress the bulge that grew
bigger the more she stared. His green eyes were bright, his expression dreamy.
His smile, the smile she loved, still hitched up a little higher in one corner.
“Hey, Cass. Ready for dessert?”
10) What’s next for you?
Well, I've finished an m/f novella that I'm
shopping around. We'll see what comes of that. I'm also working on a few other
things that I'm not quite ready to talk about (we writers like to remain
mysterious, y'know)J
