So I ended up getting double tagged. By Katee Robert of Wrong bed, Right guy fame (and fortune), and also by Natalie Damschroder. But the more the merrier right - especially this time of year. The rules of the game - answer a list of questions about your current WIP and enjoy sharing the love. Easy. So here goes. Have a great day.
What is your working title of your
book?
Love Lost and Found
Where did the idea come from for the
book?
It’s a sequel to The Boss and Her Billionaire. I was in love with
Felicity’s character from that book and wanted to give her a story. But it took
me a while to work out how as she’d been trapped on a Cruise Ship for the whole
last book. Let’s just say this brings a whole new meaning to getting stranded
with Mr Tall dark and handsome…
What genre does your book fall under?
Contemporary Romance.
Which actors would you choose to play
your characters in a movie rendition?
If there was a taller, younger version of Johnny Depp, he’d be the
hero, and as for Felicity, hmmm, maybe Reese Witherspoon with one wild and
crazy spiral perm wig.
What is the one-sentence synopsis of
your book?
Take one tropical island paradise, one all or nothing business deal, a
bunch of lost memories and stir ‒ a potent Pacific cocktail of love, lost and
found.
Will your book be self-published or
represented by an agency?
All fingers and toes crossed it’ll come out with Entangled Publishing to
follow the last one.
How long did it take you to write the
first draft of your manuscript?
I’m still going! As any frequent visitors to this blog know, I have a
one year old, so writing happens in his sleep times. And those seem to be
getting fewer and shorter at the moment, sigh. I’ve spent about a month on it
and I’m up to chapter nine. My fabo critique partners also made me rewrite the
first chapters as well! I’m hoping that daddy daycare will step up over the
holiday season and I’ll be able to rock out the last few chapters.
What other books would you compare this
story to within your genre?
A Holiday Affair by Annie Seaton perhaps, and of course, The Boss and Her
Billionaire.
Who or what inspired you to write this
book?
It was the character actually. Felicity. She only gets a small part in
The Boss and Her Billionaire, but I like her smarts and her sassy mouth. I
figure I owe her.
What else about your book might pique
the reader's interest?
How about a tiny excerpt?
…”Best we undress for luncheon don’t you think?”
Without waiting for her reply, he dumped his small bag, stripped off his jacket
and shirt and peeled down his trousers to reveal turquoise board shorts and an
array of ink Felicity would never have guessed at. He stepped into the pool and
splashed the water up over his chest, making his tattoos sparkle and his
muscles gleam. Oh god. If there was ever a need for a new Caped Crusader, Rick
McCashin’s chest could take on Christian Bale’s any day. His tattooed torso was
hairless with perfect pecs, not too buff so they looked like manboobs, but firm
and smooth and…Must. Not. Look. At.
Passenger. Muscles. Say something to distract yourself. “Wouldn’t have
picked you for the coloring-in kind.”
He
rubbed his hand over his chest.
Duh.
Now you’ll be rude if you don’t
look.
“Don’t you like them?”
“I
didn’t say that. Just…”
“Just
what?” There it was again. The way he looked at her, with his eyes hard,
piercing, as if he was looking through her and searching for something only he
knew was there. She wrapped her arms around her despite the heat of the day...
The writers I'm tagging are:
Thanks as always for stopping by. Christmas is fast approaching, so if I
neglect you all, I apologise. I’ll share just what Santa put under the tree
soon!
