A SEAL in Wolf's Clothing was my ninth book in the series,
but my third book was To Tempt the Wolf, and it's really the beginning of my
mention of the SEAL wolves. Hunter Greymere was their team leader, and then I

When Being Lost in A Story-Isn’t A Good Thing
By Linda Lovely
Most of the time when I say I was lost in a story, I’m
praising the book. I don’t want to turn out the lights because I’m into the
book. I just have to turn the page and see what happens next.
But, there are times when I’m lost in a story that I want to
do just the opposite—put the book down and never open it again. This happens
when the author has confounded me—often

Get Lost in a Romantic Comedy Book
Sometimes you need to escape in a funny, light-hearted book without the angst. The world news is getting the better of your peace of mind and you don’t want any more dark, tragic reads. So, it’s time to turn to romantic comedy. The only problem is, the best romcom books can be hard to find.
When is a romcom not a romcom? When it’s labelled as chick lit, women’s fiction or a romance novel,

Beware All Ye Who Enter...
Oh the woes of getting lost...in a great story! The struggle is real, and many of folks know the truth! There is so much that happens between the first page and that last satisfying sentence. Ever close a book with a loud contented sigh...and then realize you just lost an entire day? No laundry for the kids for school in the morning. Meh, clothes are overrated anyway. You barely remember feeding

Five Favourites To Get Lost In Again #scifi #romance #superheroes
Hi, I'm Pippa Jay, author of scifi and supernatural stories to engage your emotions.
As a child going into my teens, I was a voracious reader, devouring everything up to and including my parents' books, some of which were probably decidedly inappropriate at the time (Ian Fleming, Georgette Heyer, and Alexander Kent). But into my twenties I settled into focusing on a genre I later came to know

The Secret to Writing Great Villains
by Madelle Morgan
The secret
is two words: character quirks.
And what
better source for inspiration than extended family? Sit back at gatherings, observe, and use
their strengths and weaknesses, unique idiosyncrasies and passions to humanize
your villains. Change the names and appearances, of course!
My widowed
mother suffered a health crisis in January and could no longer safely live
