He was a member of the 2010 Spanish team that won the World Cup in South Africa.

#ThrowbackThursday Daddy’s Little Girl

With Father’s Day almost here, I thought I’d share with you Daddy and his little girl. This was taken shortly after she was born. She was all head with a tiny little body. So cute! We have been blessed to have her in our lives and she truly is Daddy’s Little Girl.

#WriteWed Inspiration for Nickie from Just One Night

Just One Night New Adult Erotic Romance by Caridad PineiroWhen I decided to write a story about twentysomethings who had to make tough choices, it was difficult to find the kinds of professions where the hero and heroine might have to choose between love and their careers.

When it came to the hero, I had been inspired to make him a Marine from my days at Villanova with their ROTC program.

The inspiration for Nickie, the medical school student, likewise came from my days at college. I was a science major who intended to go to med school. Went the whole route of taking the MCATs and applying. Interviewed and was wait-listed at Columbia.

In the meantime I started working at a law firm to earn some money to pay for food, school, and stuff. That’s where I discovered my love of Intellectual Property law and decided to go to law school. Being a lawyer gave me reasons to truly embrace a path to a writing career and publishing my first book.

So even though God closed the door to med school, he gave me a path to take me to where I am today.

Anyway, back to Nickie. Being in med school was going to be tough for her and also tough for any relationship with someone who wasn’t going to be around. I knew that this would be perfect for the story in Just One Night, especially since it points out some of the things Jase and Nickie have in common. They both are strong and protective and they both want to help others. Perfect.

I hoped you liked this little #WriteWed behind the scenes from Just One Night.

Just one other thing! Today’s my anniversary, so I’m sharing with you this photo from our wedding day which was so so many years ago. Wow. I can’t believe it’s been that long since I met my hubby during our Villanova days.

#TeaserTuesday JUST ONE NIGHT #NALit #Erotic #Romance & #Giveaway Winner

JUST ONE NIGHT New Adult Erotic RomanceI love the challenge of writing a short story that is sexy, but romantic. For me, the romance always has to be there so that I get emotionally involved with the characters.

I loved writing Jase and Nickie’s story and as I finished, I knew I wanted to give you a little more about what happens to them and also, what happens to Tommy, Jase’s best friend and Nickie’s younger brother. So look for ONE SPECIAL NIGHT very soon!

But now back to JUST ONE NIGHT. This is a sexy bit from the beginning of the book. Mature audiences only for this excerpt!

Also, we had that giveaway the other day and I chose a winner on Facebook, but I know many of you don’t do Facebook and I get it. So, I’ve picked a winner from the blog as well – Emily S. You’ve won a copy of THE LOST so please take a moment to send me your postal address so I can send it to you!

#ManCandyMonday Rafael Amaya

I’ve been getting People en Espanol lately. Don’t know why since I didn’t subscribe to it, but it’s been interesting to see all the different actors and actresses for shows that are new to me. Rafael was one of my discoveries from the magazine.

Rafael is a model, athlete and telenovela star who has been in various telenovelas and movies. I definitely think he rates being one of our #ManCandyMonday choices. What do you think?

Many thanks to Rafael for sharing this tweet! You can follow him at https://twitter.com/RafaAmayaNunez
