So, today is the wrap up day. I have adored every-single post that is on this event and they all deserve promoting again. I’m so happy that the authors helped me make this such a fun event – thank you all! On a side note, we still have around 24 hours left on all the giveaways – scroll to the bottom to see the ones still accepting entry. These are open until 31st […]
Hello and welcome to Scorching Book Reviews. My name is Nix and I do enjoy a good ménage story. The stories on this list are about relationships with more than just two people; whether it be for a month, a year or forever, the love story is about how they make it work together and, in my opinion, the best ménage stories are the one where we see the relationship beyond the sex. I’ve had to […]
Today, I am lucky enough to introduce Cage, hero from Bitten Under Fire by Heather Long, in this wonderful character interview. This interview is set after the book, in which a Werewolf army boy falls in love with his assignment. Enjoy readers – I did. Q : Tell me about your yourself. What will make me want to read your story? ANS : I’m a sergeant in the Marines and devoted to my pack, […]
It was Leonora Jeansdottir who first introduced me to the Great North Pack. The Pack’s Human Behaviors teacher, she felt that it was time to introduce the Pack to humans. Come out of hiding, even if only in “fiction.” This pack lives and has lived for 350 years in what is now call the Adirondacks. They are not werewolves. I made the mistake of calling them that early on and Leonora snapped at me. […]
Hi, everyone! I’m Antonia, and I write predominantly fantasy romance with LGBTQ characters. I want to thank Nix so much for running this celebration of romance and for letting me be a part of it. I’m excited to be here! I read my first romance novel at twelve, though even before then I always wanted a story where the characters lived happily ever after. My mom loaned the Nora Roberts book to me, telling […]
Why do you read Romance? I’ve always loved romance novels—for me, it’s the exploration of relationships that attracts me to the genre. Not just romantic love, but familial and also platonic relationships as well. In a romance novel, the character interactions take center stage. Other genres tend to be more plot driven, and that’s fine! It’s just not my jam. What was the first romance book you read? I believe it was Twice Loved by […]
Hi everyone! I’m Lisa Emme and I write urban fantasy and hot, steamy romance. Thanks to Nix for letting me be here to help celebrate Romance Month on Scorching Book Reviews. Today I have my romance writer hat on and I want to talk to you about one of the best tools a writer has…Google. We’ve all heard the joke, “don’t judge me by my browser history, I’m a writer not a serial killer”. […]
First of all, thank you so much for organizing this month-long Celebrating-Romance party, Nix! I’m delighted to be part of it! I grew up in a small town in the Black Forest, which was surrounded by wooded hills and overlooked not just by one, but two ruined castles. Is it any wonder then that I fell in love with history at a very young age? So imagine my delight when back in 1999 I […]
Hi, I’m Tami Lund and I write romance. Whenever I type that, I envision myself in a room with a bunch of other people and we’re all sitting around in a circle in those scoop-shaped (not remotely comfortable – who the hell ever thought those were a good idea and why do they still exist?) plastic chairs and we’re taking turns confessing some deep, dark secret. Don’t ask me why; I guess that overactive […]
Hi! I’m messy. I don’t mean messy in the shit-stirring, Real Housewives sense. I mean messy in the “Oh, bless her heart” kind of way. I’m flaky, and awkward, and sometimes you have to remind me at least twice to do things before I actually do it, and even then it’s not a sure thing. A lot of that stems from my anxiety and depression, but some of it is just me being a […]
