    Interview with Candace Shaw author of Her Perfect Candidate @Candace_Shaw #RLFblog #historicalromance

    Her Perfect Candidate 
    Title: Her Perfect Candidate (Chasing Love Series)
    Genre: Contemporary Romance/Harlequin Kimani
    Author Name: Candace Shaw
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    Why did you write this
    book?
    I wrote Her Perfect Candidate because I wanted to create a hero
    that is even though he’s somewhat of a playboy, he’s not a bad guy. Steven Monroe
    is the epitome an all-around great guy. He’s a millionaire but he doesn’t care about
    that and is quite modest. Instead, uses his position as senator to be active in
    the low-income communities and help others. His pet peeve is people who complain
    about the issues, but don’t do anything to find a solution.
    What is your favorite
    genre to read?
    My favorite genre to read is romance which includes the sub categories
    of contemporary, historical and urban fantasy. I also enjoy chick lit.
    Do you enjoy films and/or
    TV shows? Which are your favorites?
    I don’t watch a lot of television but when I do I can’t miss
    Scandal, Covert Affairs, Marvel Agents of Shield, Once Upon a Time and Royal Pains.
    I have too many favorite movies to name but I love everything with Elizabeth Taylor
    (favorite movie star) as well as more up-to-date romances and comedies such as The
    Notebook, Love and Basketball, You’ve Got Mail and anything with Denzel Washington.
    What are you working on
    at the moment, and what are we likely to see from you in the coming months?
    Currently, I’m finishing the second book in the Chasing Love
    series, Journey to Seduction, whose heroine is Sydney Chase, Megan’s twin sister
    and Bryce Monroe, Steven’s younger brother. The two have a love/relationship, more
    so on her side, until they take a cross-country trip together to Vegas for motorcycle
    fest. It comes out in February 2015. In the next month or so, I’ll begin writing
    my self-published novel My Kinda Girl which is the last book in the Arrington Family
    Series (check website below for excerpts) and it will be out in Winter 2014. My
    Kinda Girl is about Dr. Sean Arrington, a psychiatrist in his family private medical
    practice. While he’s the most intelligent one out his siblings, he’s also the most
    self-absorbed, arrogant one and playful playboy who has a type of woman he dates.
    He prefers the model-type. Tall, leggy, not-too-bright and dotes on his every word.
    However, he meets his match in Traci and she’s the total opposite of everything
    he thinks he wants. I can’t wait to begin writing the book.
    Please tell us about your
    latest book.
    Megan Chase is career-focused and independent woman who loves
    being single but not because she doesn’t trust men, she simply enjoys her life and
    her main concern is her interior decorating firm. Her family and friends keep setting
    her up on blind dates because they think she’s lonely after a break up from almost
    two years ago. However, she’s not and she’s tired of them. Steven Monroe is a state
    senator who is going to run for the United States senate seat his father
    is retiring from. However, the media views him as a bad boy playboy and his campaign
    team wants him to settle down with one woman before and during the official campaign.
    He keeps running into Megan and they it hit off and decide to date in name only
    to get her family and his campaign team off their backs.
    Co-owner of an up-and-coming interior decorating firm, Megan
    Chase loves being a single woman on the fast track to success. But everything changes
    when a flat tire brings Georgia
    senator Steven Monroe into her life. The sinfully sexy politician needs the right
    woman to clean up his image. And with Megan’s fine eye for detail, she just may
    be the woman for the job.
    Steven’s reputation as a player could cost him his chance at
    a U.S.
    senate seat. But when the cameras catch him and Megan in a kiss that’s all too real,
    it’s not only his future candidacy in jeopardy. As the lines between politics and
    desire begin to blur, how much will he risk to transform their passionate pretense
    into a landslide for love.
