Jen Talty

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

Jen Talty. I’m a USA Today Bestselling author of Small Town Contemporary Romance, Romantic Suspense, Military Romance, and I dabble a little in the Paranormal. I live in Jupiter, Florida. A funny little story about that. In 9th grade, my science teacher nicknamed me: Jupiter Jenni. Haha. And now I live there. I have three grown children. One in medical school and the other two are married. I love being an empty-nester, but also love it when they are all home. Writing is my passion and I love sharing it with the world! So, kick back, grab a glass of vino (or whatever you love to drink), relax, and let the romance roll in!

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

It is an interesting question and not easy to answer because they are both hard in different ways. The first book is easier because it’s shiny and new. It’s exciting and gets my blood pumping. But I’m creating a whole new world that I have to populate and get it right! The characters will appear in subsequent books, so they have to be solid, and that’s a lot of pressure. The following books are easier because the world is already set, but they are also hard because it can be difficult to stay within those boundaries. Either way, I love it all!

When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

Another fabulous question. What I have learned over the years is that readers love to read more of the same, but different. My readers have a certain expectation when they read my books. When I leave out an epilogue, I hear about it! While I do love a good second chance, I also love instalove! And there are other tropes I write. I really try to find topics that I haven’t touched on before, or approach them in different ways. When writing a family full of brothers, I try to make them as opposite as possible. Or sometimes so similar with one major difference. That’s always fun, because it’s the different thing that sets them apart. I read a ton. I also watch a lot of television. I get so much joy from movies, shows, and reality TV. It also helps generate new and creative ideas.

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

Take breaks regularly throughout the day. Try not to compare yourself to others. Everyone has their own path and what works for one, doesn’t always work for another. Take the time to learn your process. And don’t be afraid to tweak it from to time. I’m constantly doing that. Set realistic deadlines and goals. Constantly re-evaluate them. Set up a community with other authors. Everyone needs a good support system!

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

Anywhere from 4-8 hours.

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

This is always the hardest question for me to write. I adore all my characters. It’s like asking me who my favorite child is! I will say this, though. I have this character named Weezer in my River Winery Series. She’s a secondary character, but she’s hysterical. She’s manipulative, in everyone’s business, but simultaneously very loving and constantly helping the community.

What is your definition of success?

Success means different things to different people. For me everything is about reader connection.

WOTR24 #FairyTale #Beast #Beauty #trilogy – Depravity, Beastly Tales book 1 by MJ Haag

**Adult Romance**

Benella is concerned with two things – avoiding the two village boys who torment her and scrounging for food to help feed her family. Unfortunately, the best wild fruit and vegetables are near the walls of the estate, a dark misty place inhabited by an unforgiving beast.

When her tormentors lock her behind the massive gates, Benella knows her fate is sealed. Yet, the fate isn’t one she expects. Her encounter with the beast starts a bizarre cycle of bargaining for her freedom, a freedom the beast seems determined to see her lose.

A classic fairy tale with a new twist, the Beauty and the Beast saga begins with Depravity.

Intended for mature readers due to sexual situations and moderate language.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this audio book based on a friend’s suggestion.  Because I listened to the story I am not 100% sure of some of the character name spellings so bare with me…coolio!!

I am a big fan of fairy tale retelling so when my friend said she enjoyed it 3 months after she had finished reading it, I burned an audio credit to listen to it.

I will say the beginning of the book is slow.  So I was initially like maybe this isnt for me??  BUT there is alot of world building with Benella, her sisters, dad, the town, and their circumstance.   THEN all of a sudden his book was rolling right along.  I had definite feelings for her sisters (snarl) and her dad (flittery eyes and hearts).  The townspeople were generally kind to Benella and her family but some not so much….yeah I mean you Mr. Baker and Tennen.

Benella is a bright, smart, and kind girl who does everything to help her family even if she could get hurt doing it.  She sneaks around the Beast’s estate looking for food and trapping game to eat.  She knows the history and to not get caught.  The first run in with the Beast was scary but she escaped.  When her 2nd run in happens she was stunned to be allowed to go on with her life.  But she has questions as to why the Beast is asking her to stay.

The Beast is…a beast.  He is rude, arrogant, haughty, sirly, and lonely????  We see glimpses of him and wonder how this is going to play out like the book!! LOL  I know I did.  There were scenes in the story that I could envision like the Disney cartoon. 

This book does a great job leading up to the cliffhanger when everything changes for Benella and the Beast.  When I finished I immediately downloaded book 2 for the next book.

MJ Haag is the bestselling author of the Beastly Tales and the Resurrection Chronicles. Writing as both MJ Haag and Melissa Haag, she has sold more than three hundred thousand copies worldwide and authored several other series, including the Judgement of the Six and Of Fates and Furies.

She thinks bios written in third person are hilariously pretentious and doesn’t take much in life seriously, including her author photo.

She lives in Wisconsin with her three children and husband.

#WOTR24 #attendingauthor #authorspotlight – Annabella Michaels

Annabella Michaels

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

My name is Annabella Michaels and I’ve been writing contemporary gay romance for over seven years. I live in a small town near Cincinnati, Ohio with my amazing husband. We have two grown children who are the loves of our lives and our first grandbaby on the way!

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

For me, it’s the books that follow. The first book, I have the freedom to do whatever I want and make any changes that suit my tastes, but after that, I’m locked into certain things.

When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

I try to add in new characters and different locations within the series, so each book feels like a brand new adventure while also sprinkling in scenes with familiar characters so my readers can “check in” with characters they loved from previous books.

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

Try and find other authors who you can sprint with and bounce ideas off of. Having someone to talk to–even just for a few minutes in between sprints–can really keep you from feeling so isolated as you work.

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

On a good day, 5-6 hours. Busier days, I may only get 30 min.

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

Maddie from my Hamilton’s Heroes series was fun to write. He was a ray of sunshine.

What is your definition of success?

Being able to do what I love while making enough money to provide for my family. Anything else is just gravy.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

Savage Angels MC collections Books 1-9

This is the first time reading a Kathleen Kelly book.  I picked the book set because hello MC and Rocker combined how could you go wrong.  The series starts with Dane the president of the MC and Kat the singer of a rock band. The thing I liked about these books was that we go so many POV.  Each book did not just focus on the hero/heroine but we got a little from other people involved in the MC, the band or the town people.  I liked how each book lead into the next and there was overlap in each book.

There are so many twist and turns in each of these books.  I questioned some of the characters but things turned out well for all involved even if it wasn’t what I wanted to happen.  I enjoyed reading about all the MC guys and their women, the band members and how they deal with everything and the towns people and how they react to the MC.

I have not read a book that gives you so many character POV from the first book to the last. I will say sometimes I would get lost in who’s POV it was I would take a second to remember who was talking.  I didn’t want to put this book down once I started it and sometimes, I didn’t realize another book started. It kept my interest and I needed to know what was going to happen next.

I loved all the characters in these books.  OK well not ALL of them. There was just so much going on between the MC, the band, and the towns people, including the sheriff. I enjoyed this series so far and cannot wait the next two books to come out.

Kathleen Kelly is a USA Today Best Selling Author and was born in Penrith, NSW, Australia. She married her childhood sweetheart and they live in Toowoomba, Queensland with their fur baby, Freya.

#WOTR24 #attendingauthor #authorspotlight – MariaLisa deMora

MariaLisa deMora

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

MariaLisa deMora:
Raised in the south, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author MariaLisa deMora learned about the magic of books at an early age. Every summer, she would spend hours in the local library, devouring books of every genre. Self-described as a book-a-holic, she says “I’ve always loved to read, but then I discovered writing, and found I adored that, too. For reading…if nothing else is available, I’ve been known to read the back of the cereal box.”

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

The ones that follow are by far the more difficult. While the characters have had a chance to solidify themselves, it’s up to the author to ensure that all future interactions remain true to the developed voices.

When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

Music. Music is my go-to for inspiration. When starting a new story I’ll scroll until I find something that tugs at my brain, then stick with that song until I need something different. One time, I listened to Baby Shark on repeat for nearly a week! Whatever is needed to get the job done.

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

Listen to your heart and brain when writing your characters and stories. The more outside voices get involved, the harder it is to remain true to the internal vision. And allow yourself time to process the emotions dug up by the scenes and interactions on the pages as you write. Be true to yourself first. I think Robert Frost encapsulated it best with his statement of “no tears in the writer, no tears in the reader.”

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

Anywhere from 30 minutes to 14 hours, depending on the voices in my head.

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

One character comes to mind. Gunny is a biker in one of the MC series I’ve written, and the first time he entered the scene he stole it from the actual main character. Then he hijacked a good part of the rest of the book. By the time I’d spent about 10 weeks writing the book “Jase” (note that’s not Gunny’s name), I realized he really needed to have his own book. So I then spent about 2 weeks doing surgery on the manuscript, carefully culling the things that developed Gunny’s character out and setting it aside. Then, of course, Gunny’s book was the next published. Since then he hasn’t been quiet long. Oh no! Not Gunny! He’ll pop into a book without warning and I know we’re about to be off to the races as I try (emphasis on TRY) to control him. Right now he’s begging for another novella, and I’ll probably give in at some point. Just to shut him up, if for no other reason!

What is your definition of success?

Satisfaction in the end product. It’s not about getting letters, even if I do use the Wall Street Journal and USA Today information on my covers. It’s about turning out a story that speaks to me. I know if I love it, then readers will too.

Do you have anything you want to share that didn’t fit on one of these questions?

For me, the connections made with readers at events are part of the joy of writing. Even though I’m not very outgoing, meeting readers and listening to their take on my stories — what it meant to them — is a very important facet of being an independent author. I have so many fans-to-friends folks that the books brought into my life, giving me a much richer tapestry of support to draw upon, I cannot imagine not going to events.

#wotr #attendingauthor #smalltownromance Back to You (Starlight Harbor 2) by Bria Quinlan

A prodigal daughter…

Vivian Breck left town years ago after she and her first love “took a break.” With a not-so-secret baby on the way and a mother who was anything but understanding, she left Starlight Harbor to make sure her little one had nothing but love when he was born.

A first love never forgotten…

Camden Ross never got over losing Vi in high school and now that she’s back, he’ll do anything to win her—and her son—over. He’s got family on the brain and there’s only two people who can fill that hole in his heart.

Love never dies…

When the notorious Ms. Angie and her sidekick puppy Captain Jack Slickpaws wreck the town sleigh, Vivian needs to work side-by-side with Cam to repair it before the next Starlight Harbor vintage weekend or risk losing the state heirloom to a museum who is threatening to play finders-keepers. With the town’s history on the line, why is she having trouble focusing past the cut forearms woodworking first love?

WARNING: The Starlight Harbor series is a collection of quirky, fast-fall romances. You may start as enemies, but this novellete series means you’ll end up as more — Also, you’ll have to battle the town lairds (yes, plural), a troublemaking pup, and the women who seem to think there’s a 1900s war.

Review by Twinsie Dee

i bought this book and here is my honest opinion

Vivian left town when her and her first love broke up, she needed to not only keep herself safe but her baby she was keeping a secret. but now she’s back home in Starlight Harbor and is running the local garage and living next door to an ex from her past. When Ms. Angie lets her sidekick Captain Jack hit the emergency brake on the towns famous sleigh that is used at all the holiday events, its forcing Vivian and Cam to have to work together to get this staple in town back in prefect shape on a short time frame. How will Vivian going to handle her feelings and heart, but also her son’s heart and wanting to have that male figure in his life. Vivian’s life is already so busy and a little complicated she wasn’t about to add a relationship into the mix. but will her heart and head both agree? omg i just love this little town and all the characters, but Captain Jack is by far the best.

Bria Quinlan is an award-nominated bestselling author of eight Romantic Comedies and YA Issue Books (that she swears are funny…really. They are.) Her books make you snort Diet Coke out your nose or tear up and curse her name.

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

Right now, I’m working on book 4 in my Supernatural Desire Series, and it has been a slow go. Book 4 will be the last in this series, so it is much harder for me to write, and I think it’s because I know that I’m saying goodbye to these characters that I love so much.

When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

Each book in my series features a different set of main characters, yet the other characters show up in each other’s books, so I get to continue to allow the characters to grow and develop and that for me is a blast. I will also change locations and of course the situations in each book is different.

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

Breathe. Let the characters speak to you. And don’t push it. Your readers will feel it if it’s forced.

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

Not nearly enough. lol Right now that is my biggest problem. I just never have the time I need.

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

That is one of the hardest questions to answer. I love my characters so much. All of them. If I had to choose, I would say Desmond from A Vampire’s Saving Embrace. He was my first, lol. But I also love how he evolves throughout the books in a wonderful and subtle way.

#WOTR24 #Novella #Shifter #seriesStarter – The Wolf’s Darling, The Wolfe City Pack Book 1 by Sophie Stern

When Amy’s car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, she’s not exactly thrilled to have to stay the night in a small, creepy town. Wolfe City isn’t exactly “on the map,” and everyone sort of freaks her out. The way people are looking at her is like they want to devour her, and not in the physical way.

Sexually.

Amy’s never felt as much sexual tension as she has since she arrived in Wolfe City and she’s not exactly sure what to do about it.

Adam Hart has been looking for his life mate since the day he turned 18, and now he’s scented her. Amy might not be a shifter and she might not be anything like he expected, but she’s his mate. He’s positive.

He just has to convince the little human that he’s worth her time, that he’s worth her love.

*This romance takes place in the fictional town of Wolfe City and features sexy shifters and the humans who love them. HEA.*

Goodreads

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this book based on the blurb and because I love the author.

I love a good novella.  I love the insta love that generally happens with them.  I love a good shifter story too.  So this book has all the Checks I needed to download and buy.

Adam and Amy are a fun insta love/True Mate story that all shifter readers will enjoy for a quick read one afternoon.

Amy’s car breaks down and she walks to the city motel all the while feeling like she is being watched, which of course she is!!  Adam is off on a run when he scented his true mate and is stunned when its a human woman.

The story is Amy learning to understand the shifter world and Adam trying to not to claim his mate on the street before she understands what is happening with them.

I loved the short read and see there are 2 more books I will grab for another quick read one day.

D.M. Earl

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

D.M. Earl. I’m a Midwest Girl from the USA. According to my mom I’ve been reading since I was a very young child. My hubby and I have many fur babies. We both own Harley’s and luv to ride them. I write for sanity purposes truly. I’m not a people person so make sure to come to my table and say hi please.

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

Personally I think the ones after because you need to keep all the prior stories in correct order and everything that has happened in each book.

When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

I think out of the box and try never to repeat anything from the prior books. And believe me it’s hard but with time and patience it can be done.

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

Never give up on your dreams. And do not let anyone never you down. Reach out to me I’ll help as much as I can.

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

Now I would say between 3-5 hours usually unless I’m in a spot in my writing when I can stop then it’s for however long the words flow.

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

That’s a very hard question. I have many of my characters I love for different reasons.

What is your definition of success?

When a book of yours touches a reader so much they reach out to you, drop an email or leave a beautiful review.

Do you have anything you want to share that didn’t fit on one of these questions?

I’m thrilled and honored to be a part of this signing. And I will continue to write as long as readers grab up my books.

#WOTR24 #agegap #BestFriendsDad #BDSM – Beekeeping Age by Sophie Stern

He’s older. Wiser. Hotter.
More mature.
And he’s my best friend’s dad.

Remington West is the kind of guy who can get me into a lot of trouble. He’s twenty years older than me, for one thing. He’s Anna’s dad, for another.
Still, there’s an electric energy between us that I just can’t push away.
My body doesn’t seem to care that he’s all wrong for me.
It only seems to care that he’s of beekeeping age, and I…
Well, I’m ready to be kept.

Beekeeping Age is a standalone age-gap contemporary romance.

Goodreads

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this book based on the blurb from the author at a book signing.

First up if you don’t know Sophie can write some GOOOD Steamy reads.  I mean the Lumberjacks books is FIRE.  When I saw this blurb Iwas like NEED IT and boy am I glad I grabbed it.  But I am kinda mad it sat for a month due to life getting in the way.

Essentially Lacey sees and lusts after Anna’d dad when they are studying for a college test.  Remington sees the sassy siren but figured he won’t see her again.  When Lacey and Anna have trouble, Remington is who Lacey calls.  Remington pretty much tells Lacey right up front that she is NOT a good girl *gulp* and Lacey runs because HELLO HOTTIE DAD ALERT!!

When the stars align, and Lacey and Remington meet up again, things get alllll kinds of yummy.  Remington is so confused by his emotions and Lacey is as well.  LOL This book is a great read if you want spicey and sexy but also sweet and with an HEA.
