Tena, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We support all furbabies, real life or fictional. We want to know all about your Fiction Furbaby, but first, please tell us about An Angel’s Wylder Assignment.
An Angel’s Wylder Assignment by Tena Stetler
Genre Paranormal Romance/Mystery
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13Angel Killian Dugan’s annual trip to the family castle in Scotland is shattered by the arrival of Legion Commander North. Killian’s skills are needed for an urgent time travel assignment. A rogue demon has escaped back in time. He must discover the why and where then stop the demon before it can damage the past and change the future.
Killian’s girlfriend Chinoah Grace, a Native American shapeshifter is included in the mission, which takes them to the wild west town of Wylder, Wyoming in 1878. She will have her hands full fitting in and making friends. Nothing is as it seems. They encounter visions, spirit quests, and a mysterious shaman. On top of it all, blending in as a blacksmith is more physically difficult than he imagined. But not as challenging as keeping his hands off his undercover wife. Will they complete their assignment or run out of time?
Meet Adventure from An Angel’s Wylder Assignment
Full name: Adventure
Nickname: Addy
Gender: Female
Species: Canine
Physical description: furry, curly tail, black,
Relationship to main character: She kinda belongs to the Blacksmith shop. Killian and Chinoah took over the blacksmith shop when they arrived from the future. Chinoah and the dog bonded immediately. She promised to never leave the dog on its own again. She named it Adventure because of events in the dog’s life .
Relationship to the villain/antagonist: She attacks when heroine’s life is in danger.
Where this furbaby came from: The dog was a stray. The old owner took her in during frigid weather and left her at the blacksmith shop when he moved away due to health issues.Do you have any working or service animals in your stories? Tell us about them.
I have several working or service animals in most of my stories. A Witch’s Journey Series is all about animal rescue. Several animals in these stories have duties.
What inspired you to create this character?
Well, I try to have companion animals in most of my stories. Adventure seemed to just come as part of the story when I started writing it. I’m what is known as a panster (write by the seat of my pants) so my stories are character driven. Adventure stole the story in many ways and even saved a life.
What does the main character think about this furbaby?
There is a deep bond there because Chinoah is a wolf shifter. Once Adventured learned to trust Chinoah in both forms they were inseparable. Killian enjoys a good bond with Adventure but not like Chinoah. He was a bit worried she Chinoah announced that the pup would be returning to present day with them when the assignment was over.
What about this furbaby will readers like, and why?
Adventure is so loyal and protective, it adds another layer of feel-good to the book.
Describe a humorous incident involving the animal character.
Killian indicates Adventure must stay at the blacksmith shop while he and Chinoah port to another place in Wyoming. Chinoah disagrees and the dog jumps into her arms just as they are leaving. No way Adventure was going to be left behind. Another reoccurring one is that the pup always pushes her way into the buildings first then runs straight to her rug by the wood-burning stoves.
Which, if any of the pets in your writing are modeled after your own pets? In what way?
Several of the dogs or puppies in my books are modeled after my own chow chow, Mystic Reign. Mystic has a sweet, curious nature everything and person in her world must be investigated.
What do your pets do when you are writing?
My parrot, Taco, sits on my shoulder giving me her opinions. Mystic usually lays in the middle of the room or at the doorway guarding.
What’s the most unusual pet you ever had?
An iguana, his name was Fluffy. We had him for 15 years. He was a great pet and I still miss him. Mystic and Taco came from breeders. Fluffy was a rescue. Sammy Turtle was also a rescue. She is now 50 years old.
What do you feed your pet?
Mystic a special mix of dog kibble and tablespoon of Blue Buffalo canned dog food; Taco gets a cooked mix of veggies and sprouts, and then fresh fruit. Eclectus Parrots are a fruit-eating bird. She also gets fresh seed once a week. Sammy gets a mix of warm veggies, sprouts and blue buffalo canned dog food daily. On occasion, she gets her favorite sloppy joe or spaghetti sauce.
Describe a toy or favorite item your pet loves.
Mystic like little squeaky balls and stuffed toys. Taco likes parrot toys than can be torn up, shredded paper, pine cones, the food toys cranberries, snap peas, corn on cob on a skewer. Sammy enjoys her heat rock and tunnels in her habitat. They all have travel cages and love to travel with us in our truck and 38-foot 5-wheel trailer.

What Alice Treemont gives Jace Constant for dinner, in All About Charming Alice by J Arlene Culiner @JArleneCuliner#RLFblog #Contemporary Romance
In J Arlene Culiner’s recent contemporary romance release, All About Charming Alice, the heroine, Alice Treemont, is a herpetologist who protects snakes and rescues dogs. She lives in a rattling old house in the Nevada desert and cooks vegetarian meals.
Jace Constant, a well-known writer, is renting a room in Alice’s house, and he’s an out-and-out carnivore… or at least that’s what Alice thinks: “You look like a carnivore to me, not a vegetarian.” A cannibal, a woman-eater.
True, Jace doesn’t like the desert, dust, dogs, dog hair, and snakes terrify him, but vegetarian fare? Well… he’s willing to try anything!
J Arlene, 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.
All About Charming Alice by J Arlene Culiner
Genre Contemporary Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13Alice Treemont has no intention of falling in love. Living in Blake’s Folly, a semi-ghost town, she cooks vegetarian meals, rescues unwanted dogs, and protects the most unloved creatures on earth: snakes. What man would share those interests?
Jace Constant is in Nevada, doing research for his new book, but he won’t be staying. He’s disgusted by desert dust on his fine Italian shoes and dog hair on his cashmere sweaters. As for snakes, he doesn’t just despise them: they terrify him.
So why does the air sizzle each time Alice and Jace meet? A romance would entail far too many compromises.
Let’s chat about what to eat
Alice Treemont is in her forties. In 2022, she lives in the semi-ghost town of Blake’s Folly, Nevada. She is a vegetarian because she wants to harm no creature. What sort of food does she prepare? How about zucchini fritters made by mixing together whole-wheat flour, eggs, salt, cumin, coriander, and black pepper? They taste wonderful with fresh yogurt and mint.
And why not try squares of buttery oven baked polenta (coarsely ground cornmeal) topped with vegetables that have been roasted with fresh garlic, rosemary, and a few drops of olive oil?
What is the worst meal Alice has ever eaten? Like her author, J. Arlene Culiner, being served a plateful of meatloaf is a nightmare come true.
As for breakfast, Alice loves a big cup of milky coffee, homemade blueberry muffins, coddled eggs (you have to try those), homemade crusty bread and fresh butter. Yummy!
Drinks? Jace Constant loves fine wines, and Alice certainly shares his taste.
As for her animals, Alice feeds the dogs good kibble. The author also feeds kibble to her big beastie, Virgule, and that certainly seems to work perfectly. He’s fourteen years old, but he’s still good at helping me solve grammar problems.

J Arlene Culiner Social Media
Writer, photographer, social critical artist, and impenitent teller of tall tales, J Arlene Culiner, was born in New York and raised in Toronto. She has crossed much of Europe on foot, has lived in a mud house on the Great Hungarian Plain, a Bavarian castle, a Turkish cave dwelling, a haunted house on the English moors, and on a Dutch canal. She now resides in a 400-year-old former inn in a French village of no interest where, much to local dismay, she protects spiders, snakes, and all weeds. She particularly enjoys incorporating into mysteries, non-fiction, and romances, her experiences in out-of-the-way communities, and her conversations with very odd characters.
