New Book started - CRISES!!

So I started plotting my next Hope Bay book (contemporary romance series).
I had the character picked. Steve was going to get it - I mean the suave hotel-owner was going to get his story told.
But suddenly Daz started knocking on the door. He looked out at me from his cafe door and said "What about me?"
Oh geez.
See, I hate when this happens. I hate when I think I have the next couple sorted to start writing then someone else comes along demanding his story.
At the same time.
Which I can't do.
Crises Point people!!!!
I have to decide STAT!!!
Steve or Daz? Daz or Steve?
Serve them both right if I went with someone else instead!!!
