On to the interview!!!
What sparked your interest in becoming a romance
writer? I am a complete romance
novel junkie. I love everything about them, and for the longest time I found
myself able to really call the twists and turns in a lot of books. I figured,
why not give it a try? I love to write so just go for it!
What was the first romance novel you read that made an impression on you? HA! Some may find it this completely cliché but
it was Fifty Shades of Grey. I think
that book left a complete impression on everyone who read it. Good or bad.
Tell us 5 surprising things about yourself.
1)
I am only 4' 10” tall.
2)
I had three children in less than four
years.
3)
I have a ton of tattoos (one full sleeve,
and then some)
4)
I have an addiction to Sweet Tea
I could never live without my childhood teddy
bear. (Whom I still sleep with)
What is your writing environment. Anyplace that is quiet. It could be
Starbucks, my living room, bedroom... I really adapt as long as I don't have
children screaming in my ear.
One of your favorite quotes
Your work is going to fill a
large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what
you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what
you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all
matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. - Steve Jobs
Do you have a website recommendation for other writers? I haven't come
across any great author resources, yet. But would love to see what others
enjoy!
Who is your perfect hero? And why? Perfect Hero? That is such a hard
question. I think I would say Maya Angelou since she is such an inspirational
pioneer in writing.
Which authors have caught your interest lately? Why? Lately I am loving Toni
Aleo. The entire Assassin's series is amazing. As a hockey lover, I just fell
in love with all the storylines.
What type of book have you always wanted to write? An erotic novel. I don't know if I could
bring myself to do it, but I hope to give it a try some day.
Who are your dream dinner party guests? Marilyn
Monroe, Johnny Cash, and Martin Luther King Jr.
Oh, and my grandparents on my father's side of our family since I never
got an opportunity to meet them.
What’s the last movie you watched and loved? Monsters University. I am such
a sucker for Disney!
Most _____________ in high school. (popular, nerdy, sporty…) Why? Most likely to fail. I had a rough time
when I was in high school, and often found myself on the outskirts of everyone.
Top three things on your bucket list. Travel
to Europe, Get braces, and adopt.
How did you get the idea for this particular novel? Honestly, I was thinking
about an amazing love story. Right after I finished one of the many I have
read. I thought about the perfect meeting, and how I would want to be
woo'ed. While Take Me Out isn't a
perfect love, it is one of the closest based to reality.
What is your favorite scene in your new release? I would have to say the
scene where Bentley and Charlotte meet. It truly sets the tone for the entire
novel.
If you could be one of your characters - Who would you be? And why? Jake! He is certain of himself, plus I always want
to slap Charlotte and Bentley around.
Flirting Questions
Which actor or book character do you have a crush on? Oh Jeez! Book crushes? Christian Grey,
Travis Maddox, and Jesse Ward. As for
celebrity crushes Carey Hart, Adam Levine... oh there are just way too many to
name!
What’s your favorite body part of the opposite sex? Eyes!
What does love feel like? I don't think love is a feeling we can ever
accurately depict with words. The feeling is something so once in a lifetime
that there is nothing in the English language to describe the feeling.
Hey, baby! What’s your sign? Cancer!
When was your last kiss? About five minutes ago, from a beautiful two year
old little girl.
What’s an absolute no-no in a relationship? Cheating. The cardinal sin!
How did you meet your significant other? We met in high school.
What’s your idea of a perfect date? Anything that involves the beach. Dinner
on the beach, drinks on the beach, dancing in the moonlight on the beach. I am
beach obsessed!
If you could take a romantic trip, where would it be? It would probably be
to London or Paris. Something about those European cities just scream romance
to me.
Do you believe in love at first sight? Absolutely.
Flirting Quickies:
Boxers or Briefs? Neither. Boxer
Briefs are the way to go. Not too loose, just right.
Facial hair or clean shaven? Clean shaven.
Alpha or Beta? Alpha!
Planner or Panster? Panster!
White wine or red? White
Coffee or tea? Coffee
Vanilla or chocolate? Chocolate
Sweet or salty? Sweet
Sleep in or get up early? Sleep in all the way!
Laptop or desktop? Laptop
Beach or mountains? Beach!
Winter or summer? Summer
Cat or dog? Both!
Twilight or Fifty Shades? Fifty Shades
Spotlight or In the Shadows? Spotlight
City or Country? Country
Clubbing or candlelight dinner? Candlelight dinner
Backpacking or luxury hotel? Luxury Hotel
Morning or night person? Night

“You know,” he said coming up behind me and wrapping
his arms around my waist. “You really
shouldn't do something like that when I am around. I can't control myself around you Charlotte.”
His lips met my neck and I melted under his touch. I had missed this; I had missed him. I had missed everything about our
relationship over the last month, but I had been too stubborn to give in. I knew once I saw him, I wouldn't be able to resist
him.
