    Interview with EmKay Connor

    Why did you write
    this book?
    I saw an invitation on Facebook to participate in a box set
    featuring steamy beach reads. I’d been plotting a new series and this was the
    perfect opportunity to launch the Hideaway Bay series. The first four novellas
    feature the Delaney sisters-Joy, Hope, Grace and Faith. Each has a secret that
    is ultimately revealed when they journey to Hideaway Bay, a tropical Caribbean
    resort.
    What is your favorite
    genre to read?
    In addition to writing romance, I work as an author
    assistant to several romance authors. That means I read a lot of romantic
    fiction, across all genres, in the course of my day job. When I’m on my own
    time, I read Robert Crais, Stuart Woods and good post-apocalyptic fiction. I’ve
    recently discovered the Purge of Babylon series by Sam Sisavath.
    Who is your favorite
    character from fiction (not including your own)?
    While I love Elvis Cole and Joe Pike (Robert Crais
    characters), one of the most charming and engaging heroines I’ve ever
    encountered is Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum.
    What are you working
    on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?
    I’m currently working on the remaining novellas in the
    Hideaway Bay series, but I tend to have several projects in the works
    simultaneously. The best way to stay in touch and see what’s next is to connect
    with me on social media.
