Hi everyone I am so excited for  Roman Crazy so  to celebrate every day until Roman Crazy is out I will be posting a post about  Roman Crazy. Iam calling It ROMAN CRAZY  MANIA!! Today I have a interview up with the lovely authors of Roman Crazy  Nina Bocci and Alice Clayton !                                                 Where do you get the Inspiration / Ideas  for your books?                                 N I N A :ROMAN CRAZY came from a conversation that I had with Alice Clayton after returning home from Italy. My friend was getting divorced and I off-handedly mentioned how the best way to get over a divorce would be to go to Italy and find a nice Roman. After Alice and I talked, we thought it would make for a great bo...

1 Where did the Idea  for You are here come from? I remember writing a prologue of the heroine "seeing" the first time she'll meet her soulmate in a vision, but knowing nothing else about it (mostly because she has amnesia). Then I saw the hero as the hitman and struggling to remain a cold "nameless man" as his past increasingly comes back to haunt him. I saw them as yin and yang. She has a future she wants and he has a past he doesn't. The idea was that as they progress, they find their way back to some kind of balance. As I first wrote the story (it was originally a fanfiction, and so rough—OMG so rough), I only knew the destination: HEA, but only vaguely aware how I was going to get there. 2 Can you carry us through what  what your  writing process looks like ? My process (now, versus when I started writing You Are Here) is somewhat Jackson Pollack-y in that it's all over the place without much rhyme or reason. I start with a s...

Hiiiii, JoJo also known as She Whose GIF Game is Strong. LOL!! I was going to say On Fleek, but my son told me that was played, and I would shame  him if I did say it, so I didn’t…  1. Where did the idea for The Bachelor’s Promise come from? Well, it’s a part of the Bachelor Auction series, so the idea came from a fairy tale, The Frog Prince. Loosely based on it anyway. I took the promise element and ran with it, added some feuding pseudo-siblings, a grudge, and sexy times. And ta-daaa! The Bachelor’s Promise. 2. Can you carry us through what your writing process looks like? Something always changes at least a little—at least for me—because it depends on the book I’m writing and when it’s due. But the steps that usually remain the same are: Wake up. Blink at sunshine. Wonder why the sun is so bright, and I haven’t exploded into flames yet. Remember I’m not a vampire, and go make coffee. Brainstorm character sketches and plot. Call critique partner wh...

                                                                                         SYNOPSIS Indecent Proposal Manwhore. That's what the board of directors-and the tabloids-thinks of billionaire bachelor Reese Crane. Ordinarily he couldn't care less, but his playboy past is preventing the board from naming him CEO of Crane Hotels. Nothing-and no one-will keep him from his life's legacy. They want a settled man to lead the company? Then that's exactly what he'll give them. Merina Van Heusen will do anything to get her parents' funky boutique hotel back-even marry cold-as-ice-but-sexy-as-hell Reese Crane. It's a simple business contract-six months of marriage, absolute secrecy, and the Van Heusen is all hers again. But when sparks fly between them, thei...
