The Story Behind The Sweetest Obsession by Nicole Snow
There’s nothing sweeter than a love that’s lost and found again. That’s at the heart of my latest small-town grumpy sunshine romance book, The Sweetest Obsession, a dropkick to the feels with hilarity, hotness, and just the right amount of heartbreak.
Ophelia Sanderson was never supposed to see her first obsession again. You only let your brother's best friend blow your heart to smithereens once and Grant did a mighty fine job of that years ago. But there's no denying family business when it calls her back to little Redhaven, North Carolina. There's also no cure for old bruises to the heart when a familiar snarly face shows up, already up in her business.
Police Captain Grant Faircross is boned seven ways from Sunday. Ophelia's homecoming is the very last thing he needs when he's chest-deep in case work, raising a little imp of a girl, and still hitting a wall when it comes to his missing best friend, also Ophelia's brother. The grumpiest man in town isn't used to feelings—much less his heart being flung around the second he finds out Ophelia's in real danger. Keeping her safe might be the easy part. Having her under his roof, in his bed, and igniting in his soul? All bets are off with the sweetest obsession he can't stand losing again.
That’s only the beginning. There’s so much interwoven between the lines in this deep, emotional romance worth sinking your teeth into. A cozy small town with a dark underbelly, tragedy and hope, and family secrets that upend everything. In Redhaven, nothing is ever as neat and easy as it seems, and sometimes it takes the scariest truths to unlock hearts and set them free.
This book is the best kind of romantic suspense—a twisted “whodunnit” mystery with a love story that will move your soul. My biggest hope is that if you peel back the layers, you’ll find a few of your own truths about life and love hidden in the words.
Head on over to Amazon and grab The Sweetest Obsession while it’s free with Kindle Unlimited. You can read it as a standalone, but your experience will be even richer if you start with the first book in the series, The Broken Protector.

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Dragon Guard?
We wanted to write a book that would've kept our teenage selves up reading until 3 in the morning. We just love dragons and magic, and wanted to take our own stab at it, and found some incredibly fun characters along the way.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Dragon Guard, what would they be?
Well, for Meleya, we actually have a playlist haha. She has a couple of different mood songs, but the most likely one is actually Fight Song, by Rachel Platten.
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
Fantasy by far. So yes, our favorite genre to read is the same as our favorite genre to write. Fantasy gives you a chance to let limits melt away.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Defiant by Brandon Sanderson... just finished Murtagh, but it might be on the TBR pile to read again.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
Honestly, there's a dragon corpse cleanup scene that's actually awesome, and then a REALLY fun mid point battle that was an absolute blast.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
Well, our co-writing process could maybe qualify? We'll write big swaths on our own, leaving gaps for each other to fill in, and then go over the story together as we go... after VERY in depth outlining, of course.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
Choose Light, Burn Bright, Drive Out Darkness, Light The Way.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
To leave a review and buy the next one 😉
But for real, that you should recognize your gifts that you have and grow them. Basically, become the best you that you can be.

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Rise of the Republic?
I enjoy science fiction books and wanted to create a fictitious world where humans have just reached the ability to travel the stars and discover what's out there. I think SpaceX and the reality that we are not far off from beginning our journey beyond Earth is what really inspired me to dive into creating this world and series.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Rise of the Republic, what would they be?
Viking battle music, yeah, that's what I think many of my characters would choose as a theme.
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
Biographies, historical fiction, technothrillers, and military SciFi!
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Working on the new Elon Musk book, The Invisible Machine, Winning the War in Your Mind, and The World Played Chess.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
The Orbital HALO insertion that takes place in book three over the planet Intus.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
Lots of caffeine!
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
To become the 1%. You must do what the other 99% won't. That ascribes my work ethic.
Stop caring what other's thing. That is my life motto.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
This is fiction, an escape from the real world. Try to enjoy the ride and allow yourself to peel away the many layers to this onion of a story I have written. It will blow your mind the deeper you allow yourself to fall down the rabbit hole.
