REBORN Vampire Novel Playlist – RUSH by Aly & AJ

When I head to the gym and get on the stationary bike, I always like something upbeat to keep me moving.

It occurred to me as I listened to some of the songs that they matched the traits/actions of my characters in the REBORN Vampire novels.

RUSH by Aly & AJ is all about not letting anything stop you. It was actually used by the WNBA several years ago in their commercials. FBI Agent Diana Reyes is the kind of women who will not let anything stop her. Or at least, she was. In BORN TO SERVE, Diana is undecided about where her life is going and what she should do.

I first found out about Aly & AJ when the Jonas Brothers were their lead-in band and I took my daughter to a concert. Loved their upbeat tunes and have been listening to them ever since.

Anyway, here’s RUSH to get you pumped for the weekend!

Now it’s a little too soon to spill more about the book, but I will tell you that most of the action happens in the very glamorous and exciting principality of Monaco. Unfortunately I have not been able to visit, but there is a lovely website at www.visitmonaco.com that has lots of information and photos and I also got some great personal insights from Nicole Ceccato who is a native Monégasque. Thank you, Nicole!

Here is a lovely shot of the harbor in Monaco. A number of scenes in the book happen in and around this harbor.

FAITH IN YOU #FreeRead

I always tell people that I’m so impatient, I couldn’t even wait for the thimble of patience that was being handed out. So, even though I’ve got a big cover reveal planned for July 16th, I could not wait to share an excerpt with you from FAITH IN YOU, the sequel to NOW AND ALWAYS.

I knew even as I was writing NOW AND ALWAYS that Connie’s little sister Carmen had to find someone special to love. I also knew that Connie’s antagonist, FBI Agent Paul Stone, had a lot more going on that made him hero material in a future book. So that’s how FAITH IN YOU was born.

Why July 16th for the cover reveal? Well, Carmen is named after my sister and mom and July 16th is the saint’s day for the Virgin of Carmen, also known as Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. In Spain and other Latin countries, there are many festivals to celebrate the patron saint of sailors and other mariners.

It seemed fitting to have the reveal on that saint’s day!

So without further ado, here is a free read from FAITH IN YOU, the story of Carmen and FBI Agent Paul Stone.

Help an Author! Leave a Review & 4th of July Photos

So sorry to miss #ManCandyMonday but I was playing catch up in a major way after a few days off! I promise you’ll like my choice for next week. I love him!

Anyway, a lot of people ask me what they can do to support their favorite authors and besides buying their books, the number one thing you can do is to leave a review for them. Reviews really make a different and help authors get the word out about their books.

That’s my public service message for today! LOL!

Anyway, as I mentioned, I did take off for a few days and I’m sharing some photos from the annual 4th of July parade in Ocean Grove, NJ and the fireworks from Bradley Beach, NJ. Hope you like them!

Fall back Friday NOW AND ALWAYS Playlist

I had a very definite playlist in mind when I wrote NOW AND ALWAYS. The playlist was filled with songs that conjured up sultry tropical nights in Miami and the heartbreak of love that didn’t come easy.

So this Friday we’re falling back to the 1990s and Gloria Estefan’s Can’t Stay Away From You. I could so picture this being Connie’s song as she deals with all the love and angst of a relationship with Victor.

If you can’t see the video below, you can click here.
