Fab Four - Indulgence Releases Guest Sofia Harper

As promised, I'm hosting all the other fabulous Indulgence authors from September's release bounty. First up is Sofia Harper - my partner in #SexySurvivor crime. I've asked all writers the same questions - so here we go!



1) Can you give us a description of your September release in four words or sentences.
 HOT KNIGHT IN PARADISE is a light, steamy and snarky romance.

2) Your four favourite indulgences
TV shows are my one indulgence. I will discover a new TV show, or new to me, and gobble it up. I'm still trying to recover from my Dr. Who binge and that's only with the 11th Doctor. Matt Smith, be still my heart.

3) The four women/characters your hero would never date
Marshall wouldn't date someone who couldn't stop to smell the roses. Someone who didn't challenge him mentally. Someone selfish. So, Scarlett O'Hara would be at the top of his list. I personally love Olivia Pope from Scandal. She's smart, witty and a little broken. Marshall wouldn't date her, not because she's all those things but that her life moves at such a fast clip. He used that same boundless and driven ambition. He never stopped to smell the roses. She'd drive him nuts. He wouldn't date anyone from Friends. Honestly, Leah, is the perfect woman for him. The man is picky.

4) The four pick up lines your heroine would never go for.
Imagine my heroine as the Grumpy Cat.
Man: Can I buy you a drink?
Leah: No.
Man: I saw you across the bar--
Leah: No.
Marshall had his work cut out for him.

And about the Book! 
Stranded in paradise with no way to get home, Leah Smith needs a miracle, and fast. Instead, she gets Marshall Jackson, surely the sexiest man alive. Too bad he's got an emotional wall around himself--and her only hope of getting off the island ... Marshall has a strict no damsels in distress policy, but there's something about Leah that makes him want to break his own rules. He agrees to let her work in his bar until she earns enough to get home. But the more time they spend together, the harder it is to deny the scorching attraction between them. Soon hot island nights provide balm to their wounded souls, but will these two flawed exiles make peace with the past in time to claim the future they deserve together--or will paradise be lost?
Get it now.

Brand Shiny New

Oh my excited goodness me! This!

Yep. Book two is out in the world - and you can hear me - and my sad sorry cold filled voice, being excited about it! If for some reason this doesn't work in your viewer - you can pop to youtube instead. More importantly than my iffy in person voice though, Felicity is awaiting your e-readers. Love Love and Found is sitting pretty on Amazon and Barnes and Noble as we speak. Hope you love her voice! 



 But wait, there's more! Two of the September Release titles from Entangled Publishing's Indulgence line have heroes stuck on deserted islands so, because we can, there's a hero smackdown contest running all this week on Facebook, culminating with a Twitter party on Friday! And there are prizes. Of course! Click here for the rafflecopter action


Friday the 13th, heroes dressed only in towels, Team Rick vs Team Marshall, the banter's already begun on twitter and it's not even close to Friday. Hope you can come and join in the fun.

And, because I've been waiting to share till the book was officially official - the blurb!



Felicity Williams can't remember the last five years thanks to an accident that wiped out her memory. She fled her old life in hopes of starting fresh and found refuge working on a cruise ship. But her past is coming for her…

Rick McCarthy wakes after a climbing accident to discover that his business partner and fiancée has quit her job and disappeared. He’s trying to accept that she’s run out on him, but now he needs her signature to close a deal that could literally be life or death. He’ll go to any extreme to get what he needs…even if that means becoming someone else to win her back. But a little lie becomes a large mess when they’re stranded on a deserted island together, and old misunderstandings might ruin their chance at new love…


Remember I'm also hosting the other three Indulgence authors this month, so stay tuned for some smexy blurbs, bios and boys. It's a release party baby, and you're invited!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Reading!

It's the final countdown (cue music)



It's the final countdown (yes, sorry, that song is sooo now in your head). But it's countdown time in the world of Entangled Publishing - the September releases are just around the corner - coming to you on September the 9th! Yehaaa. As promised, I'll be hosting the other Indulgence authors, starting with Sofia Harper on the 10th! Swiftly followed by Hayson Manning and Marisa Cleveland! There will be some Facebook shenanigans - with giveaways galore and in the midst of all this, a wee blog hop with The Romance Reviews team.

 There will also be man candy. Fullstop.
This is not the hero from Love Lost and Found, nor even his inspiration, but he has tattoos, a fine head of dark hair and...well, he's pretty close to my chosen model for Rick McCarthy. Stay tuned. There will be more man candy. And shoe candy. And cake. Yes. Chocolate cake. I think September may become my favorite month of the year....

Four times the Fun!


September is release month not just for me and Love Lost and Found but for four great Indulgence titles. Over the month I'll be hosting Marisa Cleveland, Hayson Manning and Sofia Harper. To find out who their heroes would never date and plenty more besides, pop back here over the month! There'll be lots to talk about, as well as checking out blurbs and covers (Marisa has cowboys...hold on to your hats!) I'll be giving you a sneak peak of mine soon, promise! Can't wait!
If you've got anything you'd like to ask these lovely ladies, let me know and I'll barrage (ahem) I mean, ask them nicely! x Michele

Fabulous Style

Sorry I've been quiet for so long. We went on a family holiday (the first in forever) to the mountains, where Mr almost Two had a blast zooming down the slopes, and learnt to say "snows" with great gusto for the first time. The day he got to ride on the front of daddy's skis? Priceless!
But now I'm back in the land of computers and deadlines and I'm trying very hard to get just one more book written before this baby comes!
September is release month for Love Lost and Found too so there's been plenty of frantic trying to get organized for the blog tours and  good times that will be a coming. I'll have more about that later this month, but the other September releasees and I are hoping to have a bunch of blog tag fun. Four times the fun in fact! More when there's more.
In the mean time however that Interiors book I mentioned a while back is up for pre-order in NZ - featuring - ME! I painted our kitchen wall in some crazy colored stripes and ever since, we've apparently been hip enough to be considered interior savvy. Makes a nice change from interior messy! You can check it out if it's something you're into, or even grab a copy if you're so inclined.

Anyway, nice to be back. Hope you're all well and I look forward to some release mayhem very soon!

September is a coming

It's been a while since I started talking about the next books in the Love on Deck series with Entangled Indulgence - but the follow on from The Boss and Her Billionaire has a release date! September! Woot!
This makes me one happy pregnant lady as baby number two is a coming in October and with all the blogging, happy dancing and pompom welding that comes with a new release, I'm very glad to be getting cracking before I have a tiny little person in my arms again!

I have to say that book two - Love Lost and Found is a little bit special. Partly because it had an amnesia plotline - and I for one, love an amnesia story - although they seem to have gone out of fashion :-( But also because it picks up on Felicity - Michaela's best friend from book one. And, hells, I love her sassy mouth. Oh boy do I love it.
  
I hope you'll love it too! More when there is more. And just a reminder - all the Indulgence books have had a smexy new makeover. What do you think - here's book one side by side.
