    Aspen Gold Authors Social Media

    Once upon a time a group of writer friends–helping a member with a particularly difficult thread in a continuity series contrived by her editors–got the grandiose idea to create a continuity series of their own.
    Yes, this was us, and we threw ourselves wholeheartedly into developing characters, fashioning families, family dynamics, and a setting, which evolved from one member’s love of all things Colorado. We created family trees, character profiles, detailed maps, brainstormed titles and themes. We collected photos and researched and even started the stories. We proposed our idea to a few publishers and got no traction. So, after a time the contracted books came first, two members dropped out of the group, a couple new ones came and went. But the core group remained.
    In a tragic turn of events we lost a beloved friend and co-writer. Grief took the remaining wind from our sails. We recovered slowly, welcomed a new friend to our critique group. Then came a day when we got together and said, “We’re going to get serious and do this!” Energy built, and the series took on new life. A previous co-creator joined us again. Now, here we are, years after the initial idea, sharing the finished stories with you and hoping you will feel the same intensity and appreciation for this project as we do.
    We have many more stories to share, and the ideas keep coming. Look for more books to follow in Aspen Gold: The Series.

    Read the series: Wolf at the Door by NJ Walters @njwaltersauthor #RLFblog #PNR #ParanormalRomanceWhat starts out as a freelance article about werewolves turns deadly in NJ Walters’ paranormal romance, A Wolf at the Door. When real-life werewolf Jacque LaForge comes knocking, should Gwendolyn Jones run or let him in?

    NJ, 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 series.

    Wolf at the Door in the Salvation Pack Series

    Genre PNR

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    Gwendolyn Jones is working on an article about werewolves, not that she believes they exist. But there are people out there who do, like the nervous man who slips her a flash drive with information he claims will prove to the word shifters are out there. Gwen starts questioning just what to believe when two very real werewolves come knocking on her cabin door later that night.

    Someone has a flash drive with pictures that could endanger his pack, and alpha Jacque LaForge will do whatever it takes to destroy it. But the something deep inside him ignites when he knocks on the door of that “someone”. He didn’t think he’d find a mate, or that when he did, she’d be human. But now that he has Gwen in his arms found Gwen, he knows he has a fight on his hands to protect her from his former vengeful pack who are out to hurt him by any means necessary.

    Which book is this in the series?

    Wolf at the Door is the first book in the Salvation Pack series.

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    There are nine books in this series. It’s complete, although I have always toyed with doing an “next generation” spinoff.

    How many books are completed?

    There are nine books in total.

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    The original Salvation Pack consisted of five male werewolves—Jacque LaForge (alpha), Louis LaForge (Jacque’s brother), Armand LaForge (cousin of Jacque and Louis), Cole Blanchard, and Gator Rollins. These men broke away from their former pack to start their own. Any of them could be alphas of their own pack, but together they are unbeatable. It was only intended to be five books, but when I started writing their world expanded bringing in more characters, including the women they love.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    This series is ultimately about love, loyalty, acceptance, and what it means to be a real family.

    Please list the series titles below, in any order you prefer.

    Read the series: Wolf at the Door by NJ Walters @njwaltersauthor #RLFblog #PNR #ParanormalRomanceEach book in the Salvation Pack series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.
    Series Order:
    Book #1 Wolf at the Door

    Book #6 Wolf on a Mission
    Book #7 Wolf in his Heart
    Book #8 Wolf in her Soul
    Book #9 Wolf of Her Own

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    The characters. I fell in love with the Salvation Pack. I hated for the series to end. It was like leaving behind a group of old and trusted friends.

    What other books (not in this series, have you written?)

    I’ve written over 100 books over the past 16 years, so too many to lists. Some of my more popular paranormal series are: Forgotten Brotherhood, Hades’ Carnival, Blood of the Drakon, Legacy Series, Spells, Secrets & Seductions, and Dalakis Passion. I also have three sci-fi/futuristic series: Project Alpha trilogy, Marks Mercenaries, and Assassins of Gravas. Contemporary series: Jamesville, Summersville Secrets. The Tapestries series is straight up menage a trois/fantasy. And I have other single-title books, as well as stories in anthologies. I like to write in different genres, but I mostly write paranormal.

    claudia-shelton1-112320In A Week at Most, the first book in Claudia Shelton’s new contemporary mainstream romance series, Ashley and Mark discover that second chances and love are always possible. You just need to open your heart and mind to change. This story will sweep you to small-town life, yet lure you to Washington, DC for a brief holiday getaway. But Nature’s Crossing keeps calling them back. Sometimes finding a new path in life is just a footstep away.

    Claudia, 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 series.

    A Week at Most in the Nature’s Crossing Series

    A Week at Most is the first book in Claudia Shelton’s new small-town contemporary mainstream romance series, where an unemployed big-city newscaster is housesitting for friends. The three-years divorced woman is looking for trust. A man she’s introduced to has way too many secrets. And the one thing neither of them are looking for is love.

    Genre: Contemporary Mainstream Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG-13

    Welcome to Nature’s Crossing, a small Missouri town needing more than a face lift to survive. Got a moment? We’d be happy to show you around…

    Big-city newscaster Ashley Lanovan never dreamed she’d be divorced and unemployed at barely thirty-eight years old. Needing time to plan her future, she agrees to housesit for friends in Nature’s Crossing. After setting new life goals, and adjusting to small-town culture shock, she realizes that her priorities have been misplaced for the past ten years. Now her efforts to revive the struggling town, have gone a long way to restoring her confidence in people. But when it comes to Mark Garmund, the man she can’t shake from her thoughts—that requires trust on a whole different level.

    Recently, Nature’s Crossing seems like more than just a place special agent Mark Garmund wants to visit friends every so often. After years working for the CIA, he’s ready for a change, and the Park Services has offered him a job. Now, he’s got his eye on ten acres with towering pines, a park-like setting and one sprawling house he could call home. Meeting newcomer Ashley Lanovan has triggered emotions he’d rather not face, and a few he would sure like to pursue. But he has more secrets than the world will ever know, and evidently, more enemies than he’d ever imagined.

    Which book is this in the series?

    Book 1

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    5 (at least)

    How many books are completed?

    2

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    Each book has its own happily-ever-after stars, such as Ashley and Mark in A Week at Most. They will become an integral part of the series, along with their friends Janie and Patrick, but by the end of this book they’ve found their HEA so they’re story is over for the most part. As for the secondary characters, the star is Peabody!

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    Second chances, change and moving forward. Not only for the people, but for the community itself. Progress may mean change, but that doesn’t mean losing what’s truly important about a person, place or thing.

    Please list the series titles below, in any order you prefer.

    Nature’ Crossing series:
    A Week at Most (Book 1)
    Time to Grow (Book 2) (Coming Spring 2021)
    Book 3 (TBD)
    Book 4 (TBD)
    Book 5 (TBD)

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    I love the town’s setting! I love the on-going characters. And am looking forward to seeing the town of Nature’s Crossing revitalize itself. Plus, I already know a number of characters that will have their own HEA story.

    What other books (not in this series, have you written?)

    My other books have been romantic suspense:

    Risk of a Lifetime

    Slater’s Revenge (Shades of Leverage, Book 1)

    Claudia Shelton Social Media

    Award winning author Claudia Shelton has already proven herself a contender in romantic suspense books that cross over into the mystery-suspense-thriller genre. Whether sexy protector agents or small-town family settings, her fast-paced stories keep the reader guessing all the way to the end.
    Now, with the release of the first book in her new Nature’s Crossing series, she’s entering the contemporary mainstream romance genre (a crossover between contemporary romance and women’s fiction). The ongoing small-town saga is nestled in south-central Missouri, somewhere between Lake of the Ozarks, Table Rock Lake and Mark Twain National Forest.
    Claudia is a two-time finalist in the Daphne du Maurier (unpublished) Award for Excellence in mystery and suspense. Her debut book release, Risk of a Lifetime, was voted one of Ebooks Galore’s top reads for 2014.
    On a personal note, Claudia considers herself a music lover and water person, plus she enjoys anything to do with nature. In fact, the Nature’s Crossing series allows her to bring all of those things closer. Her main priority, though, is spending time with family, friends and her two sweet, conniving rescue dogs, Gidget and Daisy.

    The Legend of Skinner Robelard — Book 1 in the Legend Series

    Genre Historical Western Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG 13

    Pampered and privileged then betrayed and disowned, Elise Van Demer hides in plain sight and plots her revenge on the men who destroyed her life. With her goal in sight, she encounters a lawman from her past. Boyd Alvarez could ruin everything, and the last thing she needs is wanting some man who only wants to protect her.

    His family dead and without a home, Boyd Alvarez rides the range and hunts bounties for a living. When he stumbles on Elise Van Demer his only thought is to keep her safe. He can outgun just about every man, but can he protect her from her own plans of revenge? Can he teach her that loving a man is a better dream than destroying her enemies?

    Which book is this in the series?

    This is the first book in my Legends series

    At least three with a good chance of more

    How many books are completed?

    What other books (not in this series, have you written?)

    I’ve written a number of series. Wildfire love books 1-3 are sort of prequel to this story. The hero and heroine of The Legend of Skinner Robelard met in book 2 of the Wildfire Love Series. I’ve also written several books set in Medieval England and Scotland The Knight Chronicles is an ongoing series which will eventually link up all the heroes of those books.

    This book is number 4 in the series. I was hoping to get readers interested in the rest of the book when I published this one as a free read, 10 years ago. It’s published by Smashwords, but available on many other sites–just not on Amazon.

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    Right now there are 6 books, but I have a couple unfinished in my laptop, so who knows how many more will appear?

    How many books are completed?

    There are 6 books published–this one is a free download, but the rest are available only on Amazon (my publisher’s choice.)

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    In the first two books, the focus was on the romances of 2 divorced female friends of Juanita and Edgar Reyes, one of whom marries his brother. In the third book, the 9 Reyes children are grown up, and their romances take center stage. Enrique is the oldest son. The oldest daughter Rosa, who was the teen-aged baby sitter in the first two books, is the focus of the 3rd book, and she makes an appearance in the 4th book. All of the Reyes family members and friends weave in and out of most of the books. Reading them becomes a chance to visit with old friends.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    That a large, loving family is an excellent place to grow up. And that finding romance can be fraught with problems, but there is someone for everyone to love–when they’re ready. Some fall in love at a young age, while for some, it takes a lot longer.

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    My mother’s parents both came here from Poland back at the last turn of the century. Mom was 8th of 10 kids. I loved visiting with her huge, loving family, and I had 22 cousins. I made the family in this series Hispanic because they are the newest group of immigrants who are integrating into U.S. culture. And most of the romances are inter-racial because that’s the way I want the world to be–when you can fall in love with the person, regardless of their color or their nationality. And your family will welcome your choice into the clan.

    What other books (not in this series, have you written?)

    The Minnesota Romances–4 books

    Female Secret Agents–2 books

    One vampire saga

    Werewolf series–2 books

    One stand-alone book was just published, and another is under contract.

    I sub in high schools during the school year. Otherwise I’m writing and blogging about my books–and reading. Not only do I write erotic romance, I love to read it too.

    I often read while camping with my long-time HEA. Our four adult kids sometimes join us. Shinrin-yoku is forest bathing in Japanese, and as long as there’s no snow on the ground, that’s where I’ll be and what I’ll be doing–as often as possible.
    I also enjoy sewing–mostly masks these days– crocheting afghans to keep my loved ones warm, and baking–cookies, muffins, and especially pies. I’m known for my never-fail pie crust, so I put the recipe on my website under the pies tab, along with some of my family’s favorites, that I featured in one of my books that had a heroine who baked lots of pies.
