    Whisper My Name in the Aspen Gold Series

    Genre: Contemporary Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): G

    She was the girl behind the headlines

    Laurel Whitaker has been her name for fifteen years. Anyone hearing her true identity would know who she was, and she’s had enough of cameras, questions and stares. Spencer, Colorado is a great place to blend in among the tourists. But unwanted attention comes in the worst possible form—a tough, perceptive, and all too determined lawman.

    Sheriff Joe Cavanaugh looks out for people—his large loving family, his teenage daughter, anyone in his county who needs him. But the mistrustful young woman staying in the lake house beside his property goes out of her way to avoid his help, and that’s suspicious. Instinct tells him she’s hiding something…and attraction motivates him to uncover her secrets.

    Which book is this in the series?

    Whisper My Name is book #13 in the Aspen Gold Series.

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    This is my second in a multi-author series, and I have at least five more stories plotted. I’m sure many more ideas will come to me. I’m enjoying the freedom of writing what I love.

    How many books are completed?

    Personally, I’ve completed two. There are thirteen books published so far, however, including those of my co-authors.

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    I’ve written the stories of two Cavanaugh brothers so far: Dusty Cavanaugh and Kendra Price, as well as Joe Cavanaugh and Laurel Whitaker. My current work in progress is about Deputy Jericho Tanner and the woman he still loves. Audrey Knox left Spencer and made it big as a pop-country singer, but she returns in hopes of giving her daughter a normal childhood.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    Spencer, Colorado is a thriving tourist town, its main draw an exclusive high-security hotel where celebrities and well-known personalities can vacation in seclusion.

    Read the series: Seducing the Darkness by Shiela Stewart @shielasue#RLFblog #Paranormal romanceNo one is safe when the sun is gone in Shiela Stewart’s Paranormal Romance, Seducing the Darkness. Not even the vampires.

    Shiela Stewart, 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.

    Seducing the Darkness in the The Darkness series

    Genre Paranormal Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    An outcast by her kind, Trinity Ford has learned to live on her own…not an easy thing to do when you’re a vampire.

    Trinity was once a fragile girl. Being taken by a powerful vampire prince changed her. Discovering him in the arms of another woman changed destiny. Alone, she’s learned fast how to be tough, how to survive, and how to protect the people in her city from the evil that lurks in the dark. She was managing just fine, until Basil walked back into her life.

    Basil Hawthorn has been the reigning prince of vampires since banishing his father to the Realm of Dark Mystics decades earlier. When a prophetic dream makes him realize Trinity’s life is at risk, he decides the only way to save her is to push her away. Doing so is not easy. Trinity is the only woman he has ever loved, ever will love, and he can’t seem to let her go.

    When rumors arise of a plan to raise the King and blot out the sun, both Trinity and Basil know they must do everything to stop it. Even if it means working together. Despite the betrayal and the threat, they find themselves drawn to each other. Love has no boundaries, especially in the face of danger. But will they be able to stop the ritual before it’s too late?

    Or will the darkness capture them both?

    Which book is this in the series?

    Seducing the Darkness is the first book.

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    Originally it was only going to be a single book with everything wrapping up in Seducing the Darkness. After my publisher read it, she asked if I might consider making it a series. She was thinking 3 books. I couldn’t let the characters go, so 8 were created.

    How many books are completed?

    All 8 books are complete. I was writing one book while editing the other so that all 8 could be released in one year.

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    The heroine is Trinity Ford and she’s a vampire as is the hero, Basil Hawthorn. He is also the Prince of vampires. They are the lead in the first six books, then make guest appearances in the last two.There are also 3 other characters that are key in every book.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    Trinity isn’t your normal vampire. She wants to keep her city safe by taking out as many bad vampires as she can. But when a ritual is performed to blot out the sun over Jacob’s Cove, she has her hands full. Each book introduces a new character that are love interests for the 3 other main characters. With the sun gone, the vampires are taking over. Trinity, Basil and the other characters try to save what humans haven’t fled the city while trying to bring the sun back. In the midst of all the mayhem, love blooms adding brightness to a very dark situation. Each book takes up where the previous ended.

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    The ability to keep the hero and heroines storyline going. Unlike most other romance series books, I give the readers a look at what happens to the couples after their budding romance begins.

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

    To date I have 15 published books with a 16th and 17th on in editing.

    Read the series: Only One Man Will Do by Fiona McGier #RLFblog #romance

    In the erotic romance series of Minnesota Romances by Fiona McGier, the beautiful natural surroundings of Grand Marais lead to lasting romance for many visitors. An action movie star finds himself–and true love. An ex-KGB agent tries to tame a biker queen, but falls for her instead.

    Fiona McGier, 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.

    Only One Man Will Do in the Minnesota Romances series

    Genre-Erotic romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): A very steamy R-rating. No children allowed!

    This is an MC story, but here the female rides the Harley. Tough-as-nails businesswoman on weekdays, Alexandra is a biker queen on weekends. She’s never been satisfied with just one man, enjoying all of the men she “hand-picked” for her gang. When a large Russian man inserts himself into her life, she follows her instincts to some explosive sex. Ex-KGB agent Dmitri has been wandering across the USA for years. When the woman he’s sent to deliver an ultimatum to turns out to be his favorite fantasy come true, he decides to try to convince her that he can be all the man she needs. But he’s not willing to share her with her gang, and she’s not willing to give up other men. What starts as a fling gets serious quickly, before it turns deadly. When two of her bikers are killed, Dmitri is the main suspect. How far is he willing to go to keep her to himself? And has she really fallen in love for the first time ever…with a murderer?

    Which book is this in the series?

    This is book 2 in the series.

    How many books do you plan for the series?

    I’m not sure–I thought I was done, but another plot is whispering to me.

    How many books are completed?

    There are 4 books already published.

    What characters are the main stars in your series?

    Action movie star Raul Roderick, and his frequent co-star, Kelly Ann Sheridan. Their favorite indie director, Jared Sorenson, assigns his cousin, Veronica Sorrenson, to “babysit” Raul to keep him out of trouble. Ivan Trachenko owns a resort in the same area as their Gram-Marie. His cousin Dmitri gets sent to warn those who want to enable Raul in his addictions, to stay away from him. And Kelly’s mom Stella, is a retired CIA agent. Once they appear in the series, they often turn up in subsequent books.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    When you know and accept yourself, you are more attractive to others, and more likely to find someone to love, who will love you back. True love isn’t necessary for a good life, but it improves your chances of happiness. And a natural setting leads to peace of mind.

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

    1-For the Love of His Life
    2-Only One Man Will Do
    3-Her Last Resort
    4-No More Secrets

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    I love to go camping up in Grand Marais, Minnesota. It’s a beautiful small town on the shore of Lake Superior, with a thriving arts community. Drive up the Gunflint Trail and you’ll find resorts, campgrounds, and many lakes designed to let you reconnect with nature. I got the idea for the first book one summer when I was sad about leaving. I imagined falling in love with a local person, so you’d have a reason to move there. Writing these books lets me pretend I’m still up there. Plus I’ve grown very fond of the people in these books.

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

    2 Female Spies books: Secret Lover, and Undercover Lovers.

    A paranormal vampire romance saga: Prophecy of the Mayan Undead

    2 paranormal werewolf books: When a Wolf Howls, and Worth the Wait

    6 books in The Reyes Family Romances series: Never Too Old for the Game of Love, Recipe For Love, Love by Design, Prescription For Love (free download), Analysis of Love, and Love Therapy.

    I have always had characters intruding into my thoughts, showing scenes from their lives. When I ignore them, they start to yell louder. If I write their stories so they can live in readers’ heads as well, they usually leave me alone. Soon the next voices appear. I like the noise. I write romances that involve strong, independent women who enjoy casual flings, but are not looking to fall in love. Enter the man who feels the same way–until they both realize this is different. I love the passion of new love!
    I keep busy with multiple jobs, and have to squeeze in writing when I should be sleeping. As often as possible, I go out with my family, or just my husband, to view the night stars around a campfire. Stories present themselves to me while driving, while dreaming, and especially while camping.
    I write romances that involve strong, independent women who don’t mind casual flings, but who are not looking to fall in love. Enter the man who decides this is the woman for him. I thinks that how they ultimately both realize that they have found the one, is the most interesting part of a romance.

    When I was little, I thought everyone had stories in their head. I didn’t find out that wasn’t the case until kindergarten. I remember thinking that was sad; and that I should share the ones I had. I asked my teacher for help. I had her cut, fold and staple the paper into a suspiciously book-like shape. Then I drew the cover art and illustrated the interior pages. Finally, and most importantly, I dictated the text. And violà … a writer was born.
    It took thirty years for me to get from that first attempt to published author. I think the road thus far has added some depth and experience to my writing. At the very least I learned I shouldn’t ever do my own illustrations.
    A city girl, born and bred, I tend to place my stories in and around southeast Pennsylvania, or at least have a character or two from the area. Home is where the heart is and I make mine with my two beautiful daughters and my two grandsons who make every day a blessing.
    Making my own dreams come true, one happily ever after at a time.

    A small-town girl with a tragic past – an English billionaire with a secret – an old ranch that brings them together

    When a handsome and infuriating stranger from England finds his way to the small American town Misty Springs and turns everyone’s lives upside down, Abigail is forced to question everything she’s ever believed in. Despite her reluctance, Thomas wiggles his way into her heart. Sparks fly, and nothing will ever be the same again. But just when she may have found true happiness, a secret threatens to destroy everything.

    * * *

    This sweet small-town romance novella of approximately 34,000 words is Book 1 of the Misty Springs series. Each of the books can be read as a stand-alone with a happy ending, although there are some recurring characters.

    What is the overall theme in this series?

    This is a small town romance novel, more sweet than steamy, and it includes topics such as the loss of family, secrets, and rural life.

    Seeking Love (Misty Springs #1)
    Finding Love (Misty Springs #2)
    Resisting Love (Misty Springs #3)

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    I loved creating a fictional small town in the US. It was also interesting to come up with two sisters who chose very different lives and are rooted in this town. Abigail is the main protagonist of Book 1, whereas her sister Isabella is the protagonist of Book 2. Combining romance with themes such as second chances and family drama was a fun challenge.

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

    I’ve written four royal romances, all part of the same series but with different main characters. I’ve also published two books in the Romance Round the World series (Saved in Sri Lanka | Seduced in Spain). Several stand-alone books, such as the single dad romance Neighborly Love, make the list complete – and I’ve released a paranormal romance trilogy, as well as co-written two romantic suspense trilogies.

    Almost as soon as Devika Fernando could write, she imagined stories and poems. After finishing her education in Germany and returning to her roots in Sri Lanka, she got a chance to turn her passion into her profession. Having lived in Germany and in Sri Lanka with her husband has made her experience the best (and the worst) of two totally different worlds – something that influences her writing. Her trademark is writing sweet and sensual, deeply emotional romance stories where the characters actually fall in love instead of merely falling in lust.
    What she loves most about being an author is the chance to create new worlds and send her protagonists on a journey full of ups and downs that will leave them changed. She draws inspiration from everyone and everything in life. Besides being a romance novel author, Devika is a faithful servant to all the cats and dogs she has adopted. When she’s not writing, she’s reading or thinking about writing.

    What did you like best about writing this series?

    I loved watching how characters develop, growing stronger and more confident both alone and together. I am constantly surprised when a secondary character becomes so much MORE that they have to have their own story–and the next book is born!

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

    I have a sci fi romance called Seditious Hearts, that won the 2019 FFP RWA OTFS contest Sci Fi Romance category and is due to come out from Champagne Book Group in April 2021. In this enemies-to-lovers story, Lonan Tremayne is ordered to commandeer the Imperium medical frigate, IMF Intervention, for the Resistance–and convince the Chief Medical Officer, Sub-Commander Seppala Amundsen, to defect. Another wartime romance story–with a twist (or two).

    Renee Wildes is an award-winning WI writer. She grew up reading fantasy authors Terry Brooks and Mercedes Lackey and is a huge Joseph Campbell fan, so the minute she discovered romance novels it became inevitable that she would combine it all and write fantasy romance. Renee is a history buff, from ancient Greece (esp. Sparta) through Dark Ages (esp. Celt and Viking) to medieval times.
    As a Navy brat and a cop’s kid, she gravitated to protector/guardian heroes and heroines. She’s had horses (and dogs and cats) her whole life, so became the only vet tech/dog groomer in a family of nurses. It all comes together in her sci fi, paranormal & fantasy romance books for Champagne Book Group – fantasy, action, romance, heroics, and lots of critters!
