Interview with Cate Lane, Author of Perfect Match (Vice Club Nights Book 2)

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Perfect Match (Vice Club Nights Book 2)?

Last year my family and I had a fantastic holiday in Italy and some of the places we visited are featured in the story. For me, Florence is more romantic than Paris, and I was so inspired that I wrote some of the scenes while there.

If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Perfect Match (Vice Club Nights Book 2), what would they be?

"Femme Fatale" by Duran Duran as Tori is strong and sassy. For Gio, "Shot at the Night" by The Killers.

What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

I don't really have a favorite genre as I like to read all sorts of books, but mostly romance, small town, billionaires, MC, dark, suspense and military. I write about billionaires and former military main characters but I'm always looking to add a little twist or suspense. Perfect Match has a few surprises.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

Steel by Eva Simmons, The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods and Inda by Charissa Gracyk.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

Definitely the ones set in Italy as it was a wonderful way to relive my holiday. I want to go back now!

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

Not really, but if I get stuck on a story line the treadmill at the gym helps. Some of my best ideas have come to me on the treadmill.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

Do what you love.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

Life is full of surprises and so is my book.

Interview with Jody Gorran, Author of Luck and Love in 1902

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Luck and Love in 1902?

The idea for the story began twenty two years ago when I learned of the 100th anniversay of the eruption of Mount Pelee in Saint-Pierre Martinique, which, in two minutes, killed 30,000 people.

If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Luck and Love in 1902, what would they be?

Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On".

What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

My favorite reading genre is historical fiction, which has spurred me to write this historical romance.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

Sheltering Angel: A Novel Based on a true story of the Titanic by Louella Bryant, and Daughters of the Resistance by Lana Kortchik.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

Their escape from Saint-Pierre.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

I simply become somewhat possessed and determined to write what I'm feeling.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

I have two: "Information does not travel in a straight line" and "Nothing will ever be accomplished if all objections must first be overcome".

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

When one door closes, another door opens.
