burying his family in scandal and breaking up a wedding while seducing the
bride is not quite what he had in mind. Nor was finding true love.Step By StepMiss Artemisia Germayne is used to gossip. She is far from
the ton’s version of an ideal beauty. Worse still, she cannot dance. But when
she finds herself in the uncomfortable predicament of abandonment on her
wedding day, embarrassed and humiliated she retreats to the country.Nigel Rochefort, second son of the Earl of Monfort, has
always taken his good fortune for granted, so when the woman for whom he has a
secret tendre is about to marry his friend, the only logical thing to do is
break up the wedding. But that scandal is only the start. The bride’s sister
has also disappeared, and Nigel must first clear his name to assure Artemisia’s
affections. As he gives chase, many truths are yet to be learned. This is no
simple country dance or game of seduction but an unstoppable waltz of
desire—and true love.Buy This BookPublisher http://www.boroughspublishinggroup.com/books/when-we-danceAmazon http://www.amazon.com/When-We-Dance-Alanna-Lucas-ebook/dp/B00O3M4GKG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412557731&sr=8-1&keywords=alanna+lucasBarnes and Noble http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/when-we-dance-alanna-lucas/1120440793?ean=2940046207859Kobo http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebook/when-we-dance-1Smashwords https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/481535Author Social MediaWebsite http://alannalucas.com

in Regency London, only she’s put a curse on the lovers insteadBlurb:First in The Curse of True
Love seriesSimon is known as Lord Rakehell, so any sane woman would be wary
of wedding a man of his reputation. He truly loves Georgiana, and is determined
to prove it to her, but how can he convince her after being late to their wedding?Georgiana knew the dangers of falling instantly in love with
a celebrated rake, but even she had not expected him to show up for their nuptials

Tell us about yourself.I am the Greek Goddess of Love, and I adore jewelry, and all
things involving beauty and love. However, I have recently grown bored with the
perfection of my existence. Who can bear to eat ambrosia and nectar every single
day? I decided I would entertain myself by helping mortals find their one true love.
And what better place than Regency London, where they are enamored of anything to
do with the ancient Greek world.Tell us about Ares.I utterly adore him, even though he loves war, and fighting,
and conflict of all kinds. He is the complete opposite of me, which may be why we
are so passionate for each other. It is also what gave me the idea to play matchmaker.
Or maybe I should say “mismatchmaker”. It hasn’t gone as smoothly with
Lord Rakehell and Georgiana as I’d hoped. . . But I’m confident I can remedy everything.
After all, my reputation is at stake here.What do you think is your strongest point?My persistence.What would Ares say is your biggest weakness?My persistence.What do you wish was different about your life?I adore my life! I am having so much fun masquerading in Regency
London as Lady Aphrodite Carramont, with only Ares aware of my true identity. I’m
not sure when I’ll be ready to return home to Mount Olympus.
It could be a while.If you were given your fondest wish, what would it be?That everyone would fall madly in love with their one true love
and live happily ever after. BUT, only after I’ve had a chance to be involved, of
course. It wouldn’t be much fun otherwise. I’m definitely looking forward to the
next rogue on my list, the one known as Lord Wastrel. He’s proving to be a bit of
a challenge.Describe a place of perfect refuge.I don’t suppose I can say the bedchamber
I share with Ares, can I? Well, that is still my answer, even if I shouldn’t say
so.About the Author

Regency: Seduction of Lady Phoebe @EllaQuinnAuthor #RLFblog
Seduction of Lady Phoebe Ella Quinn, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. Let’s talk about
your book, The Seduction of Lady Phoebe.Genre: RegencyPublisher: Kensington PublishingCover artist: KensingtonLength: 101,623 wordsHeat rating: SpicyTagline:Blurb: Polite
society has its rules for marriage. But for Ella Quinn’s eligible bachelors, their
brides will show them that rules are for the weak of heart…Phoebe Stanhope is not a typical Lady. As feisty as she is quick
witted, no one can catch her, especially when she is driving her dashing phaeton
with its perfectly matched horses. And unlike her peers, experience has guarded
her against a growing list of would-be suitors. But when she encounters Marcus Finley,
what she fears most burns deep within his blue-eyed gaze…For Lord Marcus, the spark of recognition is but a moment in
the love he has held these many years. Now that he’s returned to England,
all the happiness he desires rests on Lady Phoebe never finding out that he was
the one who turned her heart so cold and distant. He must work fast to gain the
advantage—to convince her what she wants is exactly what she denies—but in order
to seduce her into his arms, he must be willing to give up more than he can control…Buy links:

What is the most important thing you do for your career now,
as compared to when you first started writing?I work on my social media platform. When I first started all
I did was write. By the time it dawned on me that I needed to get involved in social
media, I’d written four books. So during the time I was working with my agent’s
assistant learning to edit, I took a class and began building my platform.What websites do you visit daily?I try to support other authors, and visit many websites on a
daily basis. I regularly visit Writers in the Storm, for interesting writing tips
and Rakes and Rascals, for new historical releases.If you could change something about your first book, what
would it be?LOL. All the head-hopping I did when I first wrote it, and continuing
to exercise. I gained a lot of weight that first year.What do you enjoy most about writing?Telling my characters’ stories and the research. I love learning
new things.What is your work ethic when it comes to writing?Each morning, I catch up on email, Twitter and Facebook. Then
in the afternoon I write. I would love to write first thing, but I can’t think until
the other stuff is out of the way. Of course, that gives me an incentive to get
off Facebook.What kind of books do you read when taking a break from your
own writing?Mostly historical romance, though I still enjoy spy stories.Which of your books would you recommend to someone who doesn’t
normally read your genre, and why?I actually have a couple of people who don’t read romance that
are going to Read the Seduction of Lady Phoebe. I recommend the first one, because
it’s the start of the series and introduces the characters.What is your favorite holiday and why?A ski holiday in Austria. I love being on the mountain,
and we have very good friends in the area we frequent.What good book have you read recently?Miranda Neville’s The Ruin of a Rake.Where were you at midnight, on December 31st when the new
century started?We were in London wishing we’d gone to Edinburgh instead.If you were a color, what color would you be?Apple green.Please underline which statement is more like you:“I am a vacation spa because I am laid back and relaxed.”“I am a ten-countries in ten-days tour vacation, because I do things as fast as possible.”Please complete the sentences
I love pizza with Gorgonzola cheese, spinach and mushrooms.I’m always ready for time with my husband.When I’m alone, I write, read, and take walks.You’d never be able to tell, but I love riding on the back of my husband’s Harley.If I had a halo it would be just a bit crooked.If I could twitch my nose like Samantha I’d be the happiest person on earth.I can never jump out of a plane because no one will let me.Find Me HereWebsite: http://ellaquinnauthor.comBlog: http://ellaquinnauthor.wordpress.comTwitter: http://twitter.com/EllaQuinnAuthorFacebook: http://facebook.com/EllaQuinnAuthorGoodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7044274.Ella_Quinn
