    Snowbound With Ghost a new #paranormalromance by @_Ani_Gonzalez #RLFblog

    This quick interview includes info about the author, and introduces the story.

    About the Author

    I write sexy paranormal small town romance (whew, that’s a mouthful!) set in Banshee Creek, Virginia, the Most Haunted Town in the USA. The books feature feisty, irrepressible heroines conquering strong, controlling alpha males with a bit (okay, sometimes it’s a lot!) of supernatural help.
    I love to interact with readers so check out my website for my social media links.

    Interview with Ani Gonzalez

    Why did you write this book? Zach and Patricia where the supporting characters in Ghost of a Chance. He’s a bad boy pizzeria owner and she’s a straight-laced baker and they had a lot of chemistry. I knew they would get together at some point. In My Ghostly Valentine they both want the town’s most haunted building, the Rosemoor, and they’ll do anything to get it. They’re hilarious together and things get pretty crazy as the competition heats up. It’s a really fun book.
    What is your favorite genre to read? I read paranormal and contemporary romance and I love humor and fantasy. I mix all of these elements in my books.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)? Eve Dallas from J.D. Robb’s In Death series. I think she’s one of the best fictional characters out there and I really hope they bring her to life in a movie or a TV series (along with Roarke who is equally awesome). I also love the characters in Kristen Painter’s Nocturne Falls series. Those books would also make a great TV series!
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months? I just finished the first draft of Fortune Favors the Witch, the second book in my new Main Street Witches series. It’s set in the same world as the Banshee Creek series but features more magic and mayhem (and an adorable fortune-telling heroine). This book should be out sometime in the summer.
    Please tell us about your latest book.
    Baker Patricia O’Dare wants to buy the famous, but sadly derelict, Rosemoor Bed & Breakfast, and turn it into a luxurious teashop. Only two things stand in her way, bad boy restaurateur Zach Franco, who wants to acquire the building so he can expand his pizza empire, and the B&B’s resident ghost. All’s fair in love and war, specially where the incorrigible Zach is concerned, but as the fight over the Rosemoor heats up, Patricia fears that she may be winning the battle, but losing her chance at love.

    After losing his wife and unborn so to violence, Alex
    Navarro knew he could never love again, yet, when an old acquaintance comes
    begging for his help, what starts out as a ruse to save her brother turns into
    a love he swore he’d never find again.
    The survivor of a brutal attack, Misty Martinez has just
    come home to San Antonio to put her life back together when her little brother
    is framed for selling drugs. Her father insists she help, but to clear her
    brother’s name and find the real culprits she must go undercover, joining a
    band and posing as the girlfriend of the wealthy widower and owner of the
    nightclub where her brother worked.
    Alex Navarro is sensual, compelling…and arrogant and
    embittered, unable to return Misty’s love, as his heart still belongs to his
    dead wife. Yet their attraction is there, undeniable, mutual, all-consuming. A
    choice might be made to find pleasure in a moment, but something sweeter begs
    to be tasted. This love is like the redemption Misty is seeking for her
    family-difficult, dangerous and the only thing that can destroy the demons of
    the past.

    Gina Reyes takes her job as Miss Santa seriously. There are more

    Her family has felt the sting of his company’s Big Picture for the Greater Good
    philosophy, and the man represents everything she abhors.
    Lalo Navarro, a son of privilege, wants nothing more than to
    improve his beloved San Antonio. Imagine his surprise when he learns he’s a demon
    and not a do-gooder. Pushed into accepting the Miss Santa co-chair to raise his
    political visibility, Lalo is soon humbled by Miss Santa herself, the shapely Gina
    Reyes, who somehow becomes everything he wants. On opposite sides of just about
    every issue imaginable, the only thing that could bring them together would be to
    follow their hearts…and then a Christmas miracle.

From military to police officers, she has a love for writing about those who protect and serve.

    Nicole currently lives in the Rocky Mountain region where she continues to gain support and inspiration from life’s everyday blessings.

    Interview with Nicole Morgan

    Why did you write this book?   
    When I first heard of this anthology I was naturally excited by the sheer talent that was going to go into such a project. The authors involved are all immensely creative and have a real knack for spinning a sexy story. Having the theme be BDSM was all the more reason to intrigue me further. Always having loved the genre for some reading pleasure, and having dabbled in it in my book Intimate Confessions, I was curious to challenge myself and see how much farther I could step outside of my comfort zone and leave the ‘vanilla’ behind. And while I may not have written a perfectly decadent devil’s food chocolate BDSM story, I am pleased to say that I did find a little bit of a combination between the vanilla and the chocolate. Besides, what’s better than one flavor, but two? *winks*
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    I like most genres and can read just about anything, but I tend to steer toward the spicier romances and if they have a suspenseful back story then they’re all the better.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    I fell in love with the Callahan Brothers from JoAnn Ross years ago and will still go back and reread those books to this day.
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?
    I’m trying to finish up book 5 in my Sweet Awakenings Series, where a surprise character finally gets his long awaited happy ending… or does he? *smiles*
    Please tell us about your latest book.

    Shrouded Passions #historical by @FayeHall79 #RLFblog

    Today’s featured book is Shrouded Passions by Faye Hall.

    About the Book

    Title Shrouded Passions
    Genre Historical erotic romance
    Author Faye Hall
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    It was love at first sight when Devon Munroy first laid eyes
    on Lotte Higgins as she swam in the local waterhole. He wanted nothing more than
    to spend his future with her. He would have defied his father to do so too had she
    not been shot, lying bleeding and dying in his arms.
    The woman he loved was dead and Devon no longer cared what was
    to become of his future.
    Four years passed and Devon’s life had become little more than
    a drunken haze. All he wanted was the woman he loved back in his life and in his
    bed. When he reluctantly went to the local Hotel to spend the night with a woman,
    he didn’t expect her to look so much like Lotte Higgins. He certainly didn’t expect
    her to turn up at his estate as his wife’s new handmaiden.
    When Lotte started work at Devon’s estate, she thought only to
    reveal the monster who had tried to kill her four years before. She never imagined
    the whirlwind of passion she would be swept up in with Devon Munroy.
    Lotte knew if she were to succeed in targeting her attempted
    murderer, she would have to keep her true identity hidden from Devon. Lotte wanted
    nothing more than to tell him the truth, but she feared if she did than Devon’s
    wife, the woman whom had already tried to kill her once, would discover she had
    survived that night.
    When more bodies began turning up around the town, all brutally
    murdered, Lotte knew she had let things go on long enough. She would have to tell
    Devon the truth about his wife and about herself and hope he loved her enough to
    forgive her deception.

    About the Author

    Faye Hall’s passion driven, mystery filled books are set in small
    townships of North Queensland, Australia during the late 1800’s. Each of her novels
    bring something symbolically Australian to her readers, from Aboriginal herbal remedies,
    to certain gemstones naturally only found in this part of the world.
    Each of her books tells of a passionate connection between the
    hero and heroine, surrounded and threatened by deceit, scandal, theft and sometimes
    even murder.
    These romances swerve from the traditional romances as Faye aims
    to give her readers so much more intrigue, whilst also revealing the hidden histories
    of rural townships of North Queensland. Faye finds her inspiration from the histories
    of not only the township she grew up in, but the many surrounding it. She also bases
    most of her characters on people she has met in her life. Faye was able to live
    her own passion driven romance, marrying the love of her life after a whirlwind
    romance in 2013. Together they are raising their 9 children in a remote country
    town in northern Queensland, Australia.
