Liz Danger Romance Series Book Recommendation
I finished the Liz Danger series by Jennifer Crusie and Bob Mayer, and once again, this dynamic duo doesn’t disappoint! If you enjoy witty banter and small town romance with a side dish of murder, you will LOVE this series. The heroine is a quirky rebel reluctantly returning to her hometown, and the hero is an ex-army ranger and current cop… and both of them end up embroiled in a murder investigation. All that being said, let’s be real - you can’t go wrong with a Jennifer Cruise book, so settle in. Nothing but good times ahead!

Book Recommendation: The Chemist
21 годину тому
Reading The Chemist by Stephenie Meyer was long overdue. Part of me is thrilled that I waited so long because after so many years of being a fan, I actually got to enjoy a new to me book by her. And it was fabulous. A high stakes political thriller romance, this book was a page turner from start to finish. The romance was amazing, but even more so, the enemies to allies sibling-like relationshi...
Writing Alien Heroes | Sight Beyond the Sun
Переглядів 1314 днів тому
Writing alien heroes falling in love with human heroines is so much fun, especially in the scenes where they discover something new about one another-something that might seem mundane to us (as humans) but becomes exceptional to someone from another planet. In this reading, Raveno thinks he’s having a simple fight with Kinsley, but when she begins to experience a panic attack, he realizes that ...
Writing Magic to Reflect Life & Love
Переглядів 48Місяць тому
Writing paranormal romance is especially fun because it gives me the opportunity to use elements like magic to reflect problems in real life. I loved doing this in my story, Ghostly Intentions. The hero, Colton, has never enjoyed practicing magic. His powers are dangerous and unpredictable, often with their own intent opposite of his own, but when he merges magic with Nannette, he has a unique ...
Author Shoutout to Ruby Dixon: Breaking Glass Ceilings & Finding Publishing Success
Переглядів 4Місяць тому
Author shoutout to Ruby Dixon! She is such an inspiration, and I love her author journey. Alien romance is still such a niche market, and not many traditional publishers have “risked” investing in the genre. But Ruby Dixon transcends the norm; she broke that glass ceiling, selling her indie novels to a traditional publisher. And her newly illustrated special edition covers are absolutely lovely...
From the Pet’s POV | Beyond the Next Star
Переглядів 18Місяць тому
One of the many joys I experienced while writing Beyond the Next Star was depicting the bond between pet and owner. In my novel, normal, seemingly uneventful interactions become hilarious, awkward, and even frightening from the pet’s point of view - because the pet is a human. In this reading, you’ll hear one of these interactions: Torek discussing with a friend how owning Delaney is more like ...

Sometimes it’s the smallest gestures that have the biggest impact: “Breathe, he thought at her, because he could tell by the strain in her corded neck that she wasn’t. With the live display projectors capturing every nuance of his expression, he couldn’t say the words. No matter how he felt for her, he couldn’t take her hand. To the 200,674 people surrounding him, the two billion people watchin...
First Kiss | Til Death Don’t Us Part
Переглядів 42 місяці тому
As a romance writer, I’m always looking for fun and exciting ways to describe the “first kiss.” Whether it’s a metaphor that connects to the character or plot, I love anchoring the hero and heroine’s kiss within the story in some new or fresh way that makes their kiss uniquely theres. One of the stories that I’m most proud of their first kiss is in Romancing the Holidays, Volume 3, my Witchy Bu...

Author shoutout to Jennifer Crusie and Bob Mayer! This dynamic duo are back at it in full force, both online - giving fans hilarious posts of their collaboration process - and publishing new novels!! The first romance novel I ever read that made me a “reader” was Welcome to Temptation, and for YEARS Agnes and the Hitman was my all time favorite book. I’m so excited that these two are publishing...
Scifi Romance Recommendation | The Host, by Stephenie Meyer
Переглядів 112 місяці тому
Book recommendation time! Slightly less well-known compared to her Twilight Series, Stephenie Meyer’s The Host was the first alien romance that I ever read and STILL one of my all time favorite novels. There’s a parallel in this book to Wuthering Heights and the quote: “My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary.” Meyer’s play o...
The City Beneath: Reflecting on witty banter, a dangerous hero, and a determined heroine
Переглядів 103 місяці тому
The City Beneath was the third book I ever finished, but the first I published. As my debut novel, the hero (Dominic Lysander) and heroine (Cassidy DiRocco) will always have a special place in my heart. Writing their witty banter was especially fun because Dominic is such a dangerous, dark character, and watching the sparks fly between him and the very determined, very serious Cassidy was thril...
The Misadventures of Wrong First Impressions
Переглядів 73 місяці тому
Romancing the Holidays, Volume 2, features my Witchy Business short story, Fated by Fire. This romance was so fun to write because it explores the misadventures of wrong first impressions. My heroine is a psychic, but her visions of the hero are all doom and gloom and villainous. When she meets him in person, however, he’s unexpectedly a “cutie pie” and she wouldn’t mind a taste. If you’re look...

@@zizoume6500 enjoy!!
I gonna read soon thank you for review ❤
@@JuniiDirk you’re very welcome - enjoy!!
Great video, Melody. A fabulous book as well. ❤
@@vickeywollan7239 thank you!! 🥰
Just put it on my goodreads! Cannot wait to read this series!
Yay!! Enjoy 🥰
I don’t think these are quite as good as the Kate Daniel series & the various spin offs, they’re a little too silly with the philosophy chickens, I guess, maybe just a little too lighthearted for my taste. And I don’t like how they go off after Kate’s sister for a whole book: I don’t really care about Kates sister. But when you’ve read all the Kate Daniels and all the Hidden Legacy books in the series, it’s at least better than the Edge series. I didn’t like them much at all.
Honestly, Hoyt’s books are far better than Julia Quinn’s IMO
They’re both my favorites!!
You're doing great Melody! Awesome quote from your character.
Thank you!!
I know someone that can make him a new leg...

Yay!! I want one :) Will my favorite author in this anthology sign it for me??
