Angela asked Ella Maise:

Why did you use the same names for the people in To Love Jason Thorn and The Hardest Fall? Dylan, Keith, Vicky?

Ella Maise Hi Angela <3 Hopefully the names didn't bug you too much. In my defense :) when I published The Hardest Fall, it had been over two years since To Love Jason Thorn was published, so I completely forgot that I used Keith in To Love Jason Thorn. Vicky was only used once in the entire book in To Love Jason Thorn and I think every author is bound to use the same names eventually.

But Dylan...Dylan I used knowingly because the names I use for my heros are very important to me, and it has to feel right for their characters. And the Dylan in The Hardest Fall had to be a Dylan. I know it probably doesn't make sense, but believe me, I tried to go with a different name however none of them felt right and that would've bothered me too much.
Also, just to give a heads up, I did mention in social media and Goodreads, more than a few times that Dylan Reed wasn't Olive's brother Dylan--and that The Hardest Fall wasn't related to any of my other books.
