Felice Stevens - Hot Date http://amzn.to/2srW6FA 
What I love most about the
holidays is family coming together. Thanksgiving is y favorite holiday because
it's not about gift-giving but rather spending the day with loved ones and
sharing good food and drink. We always watch the Macy's Thanksgiving's Day
parade then the dog show. Afterwards we eat!!
Chanukah isn't an
important holiday but because it's near Christmas, we give children small gifts
for the eight nights. In addition, I make potato pancakes which I love, and eat
jelly doughnuts. Do you sense a common theme? Food!!
Happy Holidays!
Kelly Jensen - Uncommon Ground http://amzn.to/2sVqwld 
What I love most about the
holidays is giving gifts. While I enjoy the shopping part--hunting for just the
thing and wrapping it nicely--the opening part is the best. Especially when I
feel I've chosen something special. Yes, it's nice to know your gift (and
thoughts) are appreciated, but for me, it's more about that second of joy. The
quick expression of delight and the acknowledgment that your friend or loved
one know you were thinking about them, and just them, for a little while.
Nic Starr - Finding His Place http://amzn.to/2tuudLJ 
Christmas means
summer! It's the beginning of six or more weeks off school for the kids, with
long holidays and days spent at the beach or by the pool. So Christmas is the
start of fabulous family time!
Christmas Day is all
about the extended family spending time together. Sitting around the tree to
exchange presents, then gathering in the kitchen to prepare lunch - ham,
turkey, and all the trimmings. We all lend a hand as we listen to Mum's
favourite carols and sip champagne. We have huge bowls of cherries and a
pavlova to finish the meal instead of pudding. After lunch, the younger members
of the family usually go swimming while the rest of us sit with a glass of wine
and wait for the food coma to pass! The day always runs into the evening, with
more swimming, games of backyard cricket, and eating leftovers. In fact, we
seem to be eating ham and turkey for days!
Christmas is also a
time of reflection. We lost my Dad on Christmas Day, but I like to think he
chose that day because he knew we'd all be together, celebrating the day, and
so wouldn't be alone on the anniversary of his death. So we raise our glasses
and share special memories of the wonderful man he was, while feeling blessed
to have each other.
However you spend the
holiday season, may it be filled with love and happiness.
S.C. Wynne - Memories Follow http://amzn.to/2sCs3tg 
I love the holidays because
of the time spent with family. That sounds like a cliché, but what I love is
most of my family is in a good mood during the holidays. Maybe because they get
a little time off. It's a lot more fun spending time with family when they're
in a good mood because they've had a few days off in a row! Also, I just love
that the weather turns colder this time of year, and there is the scent of
woodsmoke in the air. I'm not a warm weather person. I think my DNA has icicles
in it because I love cold weather. Of course, I live in S. California, so cold
weather is relative. But cold weather or not, I look forward next month to
buying my tree and spending time with loved ones.

A Change of Scenery
A Change of Scenery
Hunger Roads Trilogy Book 1
by Debra Parmley
Genre: Futuristic Dystopian Romance
The Hunger Roads Trilogy: In a futuristic world of GMO’s, and overbearing government, a hot Special Opps soldier rescues an innocent belly dancer and gives her a wild adventure along the way, but there are larger issues to face in a world that has become dangerous and deadly.
A Change of Scenery:
Belly dancer Clarrisa Heat is headed from Memphis to the Caribbean for a vacation after a horrible divorce. A change of scenery is just what she needs to forget her troubles. At the Atlanta shuttle station she’s handed a letter, which states she cannot board the Zuilund Super Shuttle until she receives a Sendot injection, a new drug that claims to prevent a new deadly gastrointestinal illness. She stops in a shuttle lounge on her way to check in and gets locked inside the wrecked deserted room with no one to hear her calling and no cell phone service.
Navy SEAL Warren West finds Clarissa locked in the lounge. Soon they’re on the run because she missed her injection and shuttle, which lands her on the militia’s watch list. The heirloom herbs she grows in her bedroom will mark her a terrorist on Benjamin Innovative Genetics Corporation’s most wanted list if they’re discovered.
All Clarissa wanted was A Change of Scenery to live her new mantra… No men, just sand and beach. Is a change of scenery what she needs or is it Warren? And will he cause her to change her mantra?

Montana Marine
Montana Marine
Brotherhood Protectors Kindle World
by Debra Parmley
Genre: Military Romantic Suspense
Marine Recon Gunnery Sergeant Jack “Gunny” Barr has retired and returned to Texas when he’s hired by The Brotherhood Protectors bodyguard service in Montana. His job is to protect the volatile actress Angelica Glory. She’s a bombshell and an obsessive stalker has fixated on her as a target. Lucy Wood, her shy assistant, has her hands full watching out for her. When the women are sent to Montana to lay low until the stalker is caught, Angelia has nothing to do but lay by the pool drinking rum and cola while trying to seduce the hunky bodyguard set to protect them or die trying. Jack and Lucy are drawn to each other, but working for Angelica leaves little time to see where their desires might lead. A dangerous stalker with a love obsession is determined to have the woman of his dreams.
Fun facts about the author:
When Debra was young she could write with her left and her
right hands. When she was in college she often typed with her left while
writing on a legal pad with her right. Her friends asked how do you do that?
She has no idea. These days she types on a laptop, fast with both hands.
Debra once walked the plank on a pirate ship, off the Coast
of Grand Cayman Island. She walked right off the plank without a moment’s
hesitation.

One of the main characters in Remember Love, my contribution to the Memories with the Breakfast
Club world, is Antonio who appears in Felice’s Second to None. He’s my favorite secondary character in the Breakfast Club series, so when I started
planning a story set in that world, I really wanted to give him an HEA. Antonio
is a bartender at Sparks, and while he wants to hook up with Marcus, once he
realizes Marcus and Tyler are meant for each other, he’s very supportive of
their relationship. I wanted to explore his friendship with the two of them
while also teasing out Antonio’s story. I asked a lot of questions like: Had
Antonio had a relationship in the past? Is he truly satisfied hooking up with
no strings attached? What does he dream of for the future? I loved getting to
“talk” to him and learn his secrets, and I thoroughly enjoyed getting Marcus
and Tyler to help him find his way. While I was writing, I spent a lot of time
picturing the atmosphere at Sparks: Antonio serving drinks, the dancers, the
flirtatious customers. Listening to some dance playlists helped set the right
atmosphere for me, and my ever-present cup of coffee kept me going.

When I wrote Memories Follow I remember it as a wonderful
experience. I usually work in my bedroom, but this time I cleared off my desk
in the kitchen and I wrote there instead. I looked out my window all day and watched
squirrels playing and quail in little groups. It sounds like a Disney cartoon,
but it was one of the most wonderful experiences. I had no idea I even had that much wildlife
in my backyard!
The book flowed so easily and I loved sharing my new
characters, Scottie and Lance, while mingling them with Felice Stevens amazing
characters, Rafe and Alex.
If you ever have the chance to write for Felice’s Kindle
World, you should do it. I loved it and would do it again in a heart beat.

Finding His
Place
(Memories with the Breakfast Club Kindle World)
By
Nic Starr
How music features in my writing
process
Writing a story for the Memories with The Breakfast Club Kindle
World followed my usual process, with one key exception – I was writing in
author Felice Steven’s world so I needed a good understanding of her setting. I
also featured a few of Felice’s main characters so I needed knowledge of those
characters and their back story. This necessitated a re-read of the series
because it had been some time since I’d first read the books. As I read the
books, I made notes and scribbled ideas that culminated in an idea for my own
story and my own characters.
Part of my usual writing process is
developing a theme for my story and getting to know my characters. What drives
them? What are their passions? How have the events in their lives shaped the
people they are now? What are they looking for in their lives and in love? And
often I’ll choose a song or two that reflect my character, their situation, or
the feel of the book I’m writing.
Finding
His Place is Kieran’s story. Kieran is struggling
to find his direction after a life spent trying to please his father and be the
man he thinks his father wants him to be. Part of his journey involves
recognising that he can follow his own path and be happy. There were two songs
that represented Finding His Place to
me.
Keep Your Head Up by Ben
Howard
This song feels like a message to Kieran. Life
is about learning from the past, letting go and making changes. Look inside
yourself to find what makes you happy
– it will get better.
Insert
You Tube Clip here (https://youtu.be/ADP65wbBUpc)
It’s Time by Imagine
Dragons
This song celebrates Kieran’s new beginning.

Sometimes finding your place in the world can lead to
love.
Kieran Walters is the illegitimate son of a
successful businessman. Despite striving to win his father’s affection, a
confrontation that has been years in the making leaves Kieran devastated to
realize he will never be good enough. Jealous of the half brother he’s never
met, and who most likely doesn’t know of his existence, Kieran vows to find out
what makes his brother so special in their father’s eyes.
Darius Jensen manages a nightclub. He loves
his job, but is reluctant to commit when given the opportunity to become a
partner. His previous foray into business ownership with a boyfriend had
disastrous results, and Darius is still paying the price, both financially and
emotionally.
When Kieran starts working with Darius at
Sparks, Darius shows him it’s not too late for Kieran to realize his dreams—the
fulfilling career, a loving family, and someone who loves him for who he is. If
only Kieran can convince Darius of the same thing. But before Kieran’s and
Darius’s dreams can come true, Kieran needs to come clean with his brother and
deal with the resulting fallout… which threatens his relationship with Darius.

Music plays a large part in my
writing. I always have an internal soundtrack going in my head and that was
certainly the case for A Way with Words.
Tony hums to a Bon Jovi classic playing at his job site and music greets him
when he pushes the door open to the bar where Remy works. And of course, Tony
meets Remy when he plays guitar in the park. The background is buzzing with
everything from flamenco to classic rock and roll. Here’s a short playlist to
give you an idea. Enjoy!
Happy Reading & Listening,

Lane Hayes is grateful to finally be doing what she loves best.
Writing full-time! It’s no secret Lane loves a good romance novel. An avid
reader from an early age, she has always been drawn to well-told love story
with beautifully written characters. These days she prefers the leading roles
to both be men. Lane discovered the M/M genre a few years ago and was instantly
hooked. Her debut novel was a 2013 Rainbow Award finalist and subsequent books
have received Honorable Mentions, and were winners in the 2016 Rainbow Awards.
She loves red wine, chocolate and travel (in no particular order). Lane lives
in Southern California with her amazing husband in an almost empty nest.

Uncommon Ground is unlike anything
I’ve written before. I’ve written science fiction, aliens, and contemporary
romance separately. This was my first attempt to put all those elements in the
same story. Why? Because I love both genres, read both genres, and wanted this
story to reflect that. I wanted people who don’t normally read science fiction
to give it a try, and I wanted my science fiction readers to fall in love with
Dillon and Lang.
The setting for Uncommon Ground was a bonus. I
was excited to write in Felice Stevens’ New York. I love her characters and
stories. My plot is fairly peripheral to hers, with her characters only
appearing here and there. The reason for that is, well, my guys are aliens.
(Some of them. Okay, most of them.) I didn’t want to infect her world too much.
But now that I’ve done it once, I can’t wait to do it again, and I will be
using one of her characters in a pivotal role in a follow up story. I haven’t
picked my victim yet…
Writing this story was a lot of fun and I can’t wait to continue
Dillon and Lang’s adventure, and expand the world I’ve started building inside
Felice Stevens’ world.
Bio and links:
If aliens ever do land on Earth, Kelly will not be prepared,
despite having read over a hundred stories of the apocalypse. Still, she will
pack her precious books into a box and carry them with her as she strives to
survive. It’s what bibliophiles do.
Kelly is the author of a number of novels, novellas and short
stories, including the Chaos
Station series, co-written with Jenn Burke. A lot of what she
writes is speculative in nature, but sometimes it’s just about a guy losing his
socks and/or burning dinner. Because life isn’t all conquering aliens and mountain
peaks. Sometimes finding a happy ever after is all the adventure we need.
