Name: Jamie CharlesAge: 31Gender: FemaleBirthplace: Cleveland,
OhioProfession: Artist/BartenderEthnicity: CaucasianDescribe her body build, skin tone, height and weight. Include
any unique features such as dimples, freckles, or scars: Jamie is average height
with a curvy, well-toned body. Jamie has a nose piercing, tattoos and fair skin.
At the beginning of the story her hair is long and black and she favors dramatic
eyes shadow and lipstick. Later in the book she changes her style a bit.Who is the significant
other in your character’s life?Miles Copeland. He’s dreamy, handsome, speaks his mind and it
quite persistent. He isn’t afraid of Jamie’s tough, scarred exterior and he’s determined
to win her heart. Thankfully, he succeeds.How does your heroine
dress?In the beginning of the book, Jamie favors a darker, edgier look.
I’d describe it as Goth Girl Meets Motorcycle Chick. It fits her mood and the image
she wants to project to the world. She relishes the fact that people find her unapproachable.How educated is this character?
Is she book smart, self-taught, widely-experienced?Jamie is a smart girl but she is self-taught and street smart.
She is capable of much more, but deep down she holds the belief that she doesn’t
deserve more.Does she scrape by, live comfortably, live extravagantly?Jamie is your typical starving artist,
in many ways, but she’s comfortable with her life as it is. However, when she starts
dating Miles she becomes more aware of what she doesn’t have. The difference in
their income levels does add to her insecurities.What does she have a knack
for doing?Jamie is a talented artist. She’s especially skilled at drawing
and painting. When she was ten-years-old, the man who Jamie considers to be her
father bought her art supplies after she got in trouble for drawing on a desk at
school.What is your character’s
family like?Jamie comes from a broken home and had a very difficult childhood.
Her father left home when she was about ten. Her mother was an alcoholic and drug
addict. Jamie had planned to run away from home at thirteen, but her best friend’s
family took her in and became her legal guardians. She loves them and is fiercely
loyal to them. Yet, she trusts few other people.Is she close to family?Jamie is very close to her adopted
family. However, she hasn’t seen her biological father since she was ten and hasn’t
seen her biological mother in more than fifteen years.If someone from your character’s
past showed up, who would she NOT want it to be, and why?The last person in the world that Jamie
would want to see is her biological mother, Josephine Charles. Yet, near the outset
of the story, that is exactly what happens. Josephine is trying to get her life
together and wants to make amends with Jamie. This sets off a series of events in
which Jamie is forced to deal with extremely painful secrets from her past that
neither she nor Josephine are truly prepared to face.Can your heroine keep
a secret?Yes. Jamie has kept lots of secrets for the two women she considers
her sisters. However, the biggest secret she’s been keeping is about what happened
to her as a young girl. It’s slowly been eating away at her, like a poison, and
making it difficult for her to form a true connection with or trust people outside
of her small circle.What inner doubt causes
your character the most difficulty?Being abandoned by her father without so much as a word and watching
her mother choose the man who hurt her over her has left Jamie with the belief that
she is unlovable. She behaves accordingly and avoids relationships at all costs.
Until she met Miles, she was content to live her life this way. Being loved by him
slowly changes her perspective on the matter and her self-perception.About Your Writer: Questions for your character to answer about you.
Why do you think your
writer chose to write about you?I was a minor character in her debut novel, Making the First
Move, but we really hit it off. To be honest, she was sort of fascinated with me.
She needed to understand what made me tick and to see it all play out. I think she
was also a little taken with Miles and wanted to go back and write our love story
as her way of secretly getting to spend some alone time with him.What do you wish your
writer had not told others about you?There are lots of things in my past that are painful and that
I’m not especially proud of. Reese put it all out there. Honestly, I didn’t appreciate
it initially. Yet, if she hadn’t I’d never have been able to truly love Miles. So
I thank her for that. I also hope my story gives hope to other women who might be
suffering from insecurity, self-loathing and self-doubt in the wake of a sexual
assault.Was there anything your
writer discovered about you that was a surprise to one or both of you?Learning the truth regarding my deeply-held beliefs about myself
came as a surprise to me. I go on quite a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance
in this story. However, I think Reese was just as surprised by the reasons behind
some of my bad choices. This book was a collaboration between the two of us. I’m
pretty sure my name should be listed as fictional co-author.What other character from
your book do you think your writer should write a book about? Care to tell us why?There are three other characters in my story who also deserve
their own happy endings: my friend, Lisa who works with me; Miles’s little sister,
Kari; and my other childhood friend, Xavier Hunt. There are some very emotional
scenes between Ex and me in this story. Ex deserves to find a woman who will love
him the way he deserves. Several readers have requested his story, so I hope Reese
is sitting in her chair, plotting his story out right now.Author Bio

Tell us about yourself,
please.I’m a successful Hispanic businessman in San Antonio. I’m married to my college sweetheart,
Rebecca, and we have a son, Michael.What is it that you want,
but cannot have? Authors call this the conflict of the story.All my life I’ve wanted to just be who and what I was. Gay.What’s your internal limitation?
Meaning, what is it about you that makes it so you cannot do what it is you need
to do during this story?My love and loyalty to my wife and son. My fear of losing my
family if I came out of the closet. My fear and shame that was beaten into me by
my father when I was a boy, though, has been one of the biggest nails on my closet
door.What inner doubt causes
you the most difficulty?The pain, the horrible, pain that would be caused if I came out
of the closet. My successful business position in the community and what would happen
if I came out as a homosexual.What’s your external complication?
In the story world your author created, explain what it is you fear most.The biggest complication to enter my life was a lover from my
past. Jorge Villagomez. I’d left him behind long ago and locked myself in the closet,
hoped he would always just be a secret from my past. But, when he returned to my
world, I knew my love for him had never died. It was stronger than ever.Tell us about your significant
other, that person who makes living worthwhile.At the risk of being hated, my life is divided between two significant
others. My wife, Rebecca and Jorge. And that is my pain. A love and respect for
the woman I married, who I truly love, and an equal love for the man I loved since
I was a kid.What would that person
say about you?Oddly, they would both say the same thing, but from different
points of view. That, although I am a loyal, good man who would do anything for
those I love, I am also a miserable mess. A man torn between two lives—my straight
life and being the homosexual who I really am.What is your family like?We are a typical family. Happy. Deep into our Hispanic heritage.What special skills do
you rely on?Skills. Funny, I never thought of having skills. I am, though,
a talented and innovative architect.If someone from your past
showed up, who would you NOT want it to be, and why?Jorge, of course. With him comes the pounding on my tight closet
door. And, most of all, my father. A man who hated me, who was ashamed of me.Are you happy with the
way your story ended? Why or why not?Very happy. It was a painful road, my coming out. I did hurt
my wife, I confused my son. But, in time—because ultimately she loved me enough—Rebecca
came to terms as best she could with my homosexuality. And, after an equally rocky
road, I finally reunited with my soul mate, Jorge.About the Writer
You have the length of
a tweet (140 characters) to describe yourself as a writer. Let’s see what you can
do.Ha! That’s a good one! Let me see…Nah, I can’t describe myself.Why did you choose to
write about this character?I simply love Hispanic culture and the character was inspired
by one of my favorite crushes, Hispanic actor Eduardo Yanez. Personality, looks,
everything. It felt good to turn a passion for a type of man into a character.Was there anything you
discovered about this character that was a surprise to you? When you wrote about
this character, what made you the most happy? What made you the most sad? Happy?That he was beautiful. He was NOT perfect, as he was a big man,
had been a big kid. Sad because of other imperfections. Sad because he was going
to do some things, in his struggle to finally come out, that would hurt others,
that would make him seem selfish, that would make him seem weak. But it was who
he was, and it was real. Not easy to make a character have flaws that you knew readers
would not like.Why do you write?I know it’s cliché, but it’s true: because I can’t NOT write.
But, then, too, I’ve always had this huge, huge world of folks in my head. And since
I can’t paint of sing about them, I have to produce them in the only other means
I know. Writing them.What do you want to write
next?I’m already into a story, another Hispanic set of characters,
only a bit darker than ‘Honor C’. A story where a horrific event that happened years
ago ends up being an unsuspected bond between the two main characters.What other character from
this book do you want to write about? Care to tell us why?The supporting character, Gabriel Barbosa, who had loved one
of the MC’s (Jorge). Just one of those guys you write, who you don’t plan to be
awfully significant, but then—ouch—you kind of like him a lot and want to write
him, to explore him further.Are any sequels planned
for this book?Actually, there is a sequel. The book was left with what readers
keep calling a ‘happy for now’. I want to go beyond and let the readers have that
conclusive happy ending.Author Bio
C. Zampa’s earliest stories were not written words, but drawings.
Adventures, romances—all drawn in comic book style, complete with dialogue bubbles.
Countless hours were spent in her room with her Mead Academie sketch pad and pencils.
While the stereo headphones piped the classics into her ears, she feverishly sketched
the wonderful characters who lived in her head, creating little vignettes for them.Even her early drawings reflected romance as she felt it—erotic,
sensual, natural, uninhibited.In her pseudo-hippie days of high school, she began to write.
Her teachers encouraged her to take her writing seriously, but to her it was strictly
for pleasure. Once entering the working world, she left writing behind; but, a few
years ago, overwhelmed by a need to create, she opened a blank document and began
to write again and has not stopped since.Author Social Media

Growing up, I didn’t know what I wanted to be. Once when someone
asked me about my dream job, I said I wanted to be a pretender.That’s why writing is the perfect job for me, because it allows
me the flexablity to become a new person in every book. In truth, I went through
a number of different jobs, before I decided to be a writer. I enjoy incorporating
the heartaches, headaches and fun of being a mother into my books.Currently, I’m working on a series about four executive wives.
They combine elements of women fiction with the passion of romance. The first three
books are available, Marketing Exec’s Widow, IT Exec’s Baby, and CFO’s Affair. The
last book CEO Widow’s Decision will be out by the end of 2014.Also, I have two books out in my Family Tree series…Summer’s
Growth and Fallen Leaves. (Paranormal Romantic Suspense)When not writing, I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling
around the country. I haven’t hit every state yet, but hoping to some day.Read the first chapter of any of my books by visiting my website.Author Social Media

Interview with Loc Glin, author of Unleashing the Woman Within @LocGlin #RLFblog
Unleashing the Woman Within About the Book
Title Unleashing the Woman Within The Mystic Museum
Series 3Genre Erotic Romance, BDSM, Paranormal Elements.Author Loc GlinBook heat level (based on movie ratings): RBuy This Book
Publisher http://www.bookstrand.com/loc-glinAmazon UK http://www.amazon.co.uk/-/e/B008D69BBWBarnes and Noble http://www.barnesandnoble.com/c/loc-glinInterview with Loc Glin
Why did you write this
book?This is the 3rd book in a series. I read the Fifty Shades of
Grey series, and decided to try my hand at writing BDSM. I was surprised, no more
like flabbergasted, by all the rules that the people practicing that sexual lifestyle
abide by.What is your favorite
genre to read?I love romance and fantasy. When I’m writing I try to combine
the two.What is your favorite character from fiction (not including your
own characters)?Bilbo Baggins ranks pretty high up on my list of memorable characters.
He ventured outside of his comfort zone and changed the world.Do you enjoy films and/or
TV shows? Which are your favorites?Yes, I like watching movies and TV. My current TV show favorites?
Hmm, there’s True Blood, Grim, Sleepy Hallow, Elementary, Blue Bloods, Castle. There’s
more but I’ll stop there. I won’t even start on my past, canceled, favorites. That
list is much longer. I’ve been watching TV for quite some time now.What are you working on
at the moment, and what are we likely to see from you in the coming months?I’m continuing to work on my Mystic Museum Series. To adequately
answer this question I will have to fill you in on the premise of The Mystic Museum
Series. Minerva’s Mystic Museum is located in New York City. Every full moon the “powers
that be” choose someone from the visitors of the museum. This someone, known
as the mystic walker, will be the hero/heroine of the novel. The “powers”
select someone they feel deserves a second chance, or just a chance to follow their
destiny. Minerva, the curator and caretaker of the museum meets the chosen mystic
walker. Through the magic that has been entrusted to her, Minerva supplies them
with the opportunity to change their lives.Each book in the series is vastly different from the others.
The 1st book, called Howling at the Moon, is a ménage involving shape shifting wolves.
The 2nd is called Dulce Isle. Dulce Isle is a ménage which explores a newly widowed
man’s changing sexual inclinations. The 3rd novel is called Unleashing the Woman
Within. It contains BDSM (with a warning that it contains forced seduction). The
4th novel, and what will be coming from me in future months, is called End Detour.
End Detour is a story about a hooker, and has hints of interracial relationships.
The 5th is called Undivided Attention, this one involves inter galactic displacement
and a curse. The 6th is called Magic in the Woods. It is a ménage and involves inter-dimensional
travel. There are a few other ideas floating around in my head that I haven’t begun
the creative process on yet. I think I’m going to be busy for awhile.About the Book
Rowena Milestone, corporate executive, has an accomplished career.
Yet one thing eludes her. Try as she might she can’t seem to have an orgasm even
though she likes sex. Her position in the corporate man’s world tends to intimidate
her dates. They perform well enough in bed, but they just don’t push her over the
edge, until she meets Stephen.Stephen Sloan has a secret. He belongs to a very special, no
holds barred, anything goes sex club. He never thought he’d meet anyone like Rowena
there, so he wanted to believe her outrageous story that she didn’t know how she’d
gotten there. When she disappeared without a trace he knew she’d been telling the
truth. Now armed with three pieces of information he is determined to find her.Rowena was devastated when the curator of the museum couldn’t
help. Minerva had said, “If the universe is willing, he will come to you.”
Fat chance she has of that happening.Note: This book contains forced seduction.Author Bio
I live in Little Falls, New Jersey. I am happily divorced, and I’m proud
to be able to say that my ex-husband and I are still on friendly terms. We created
two beautiful twin daughters in our union together. For that we will be forever
grateful to each other.My son in-law is proudly defending our country. Because of that,
I see too little of my grandson. Duty stations are never close enough to home.I share my home with Tiger Lily, the cat I inherited from my
daughters, and the man I consider my soul-mate.I work full time, and write in my spare time. I like to read
and watch TV or movies. I enjoy sitting poolside and swimming. Horseback riding?
Yes, I love it. Unfortunately there aren’t enough hours in the day to do all the
things I like to do, so I choose to write.I’m the first to admit that my life is uneventful, one could
consider it dull. But I’m happy, that’s what matters. Not many people can truly
say that. If more people were happy the world would be a better place.Author Social Media

Interview with Kristina Knight
Why did you write this book?
I’ve had a love affair with music all my life. It started with
the Beach Boys (which my mom introduced me to when I hit high school) and then the
pop stars of the late 80s/early 90s (with some hair metal thrown in). Rock stars
fascinate me, so when Nate popped into my head I knew I had to write his story!What is your favorite genre to read?
I read across genres, depending on my mood…but probably 60%
of my reading is contemporary romance. Because who doesn’t love a boy-meets-girl
story?What is your favorite character from fiction (not including your
own characters)?So many! But Samantha Jellicoe, from the Suzanne Enoch ‘Billionaires’
series is right up there at the top. She’s feisty, spunky and just a little bit
broken, but she also has a code and she lives by it. Love that!Do you enjoy films and/or TV shows? Which are your favorites?
Yes, to both! A few of my faves are NCIS, Revenge, any chic-flick
film …and I love the Romancing the Stone movies from the 80s. They’re a little clichéd
and some of the acting is silly…but they’re still so good!What are you working on at the moment, and what are we likely to see from you in the coming months?
I have 2 more rocker books, coming out in a few months with Harlequin
E and I just put the finishing touches on my very first SuperRomance from Harlequin,
which should be out in early 2015. So I’m in a little bit of editing/revisioning
limbo, but in my spare time (HA!!) I’m working on another contemporary about a cowboy
and a masseuse that I’m having so much fun with!Please tell us about your latest book.
Light My Fire is a friends-to-lovers/brother’s best friend book
set in the glamorous Hollywood world. Lily is desperate
to change her image, and she’s had a mad crush on Nate, her brother’s best friend
and a rock star, for years. She thinks he’s the ticket…but she doesn’t count on
falling for him…Lily MacIntyre needs to shed her sitcom teen-queen image if she’s going to carve out a real career in Hollywood. A tabloid-worthy fling with rocker Nate Lansford—her childhood friend and new cohost of a reality talent show—should do it. As long as she can accept that the notorious player will be moving on to the next eager conquest when the season wraps. Long before Nate’s hard-hearted image took hold, he and Lily were each other’s protectors and allies. No one knows him the way she does—and he doesn’t want his messed-up past to muddy up her potential. For once, the bad boy is trying to be good. Not easy when the good girl is getting wicked with him in the back of his limo, and every white-hot kiss proves they can never be “just friends” again…
