I like to read darker romances because to me, it makes the HEA all the more sweet. How many do you plan in the series? I see that you are already working on the 2nd book. :) I wish you much success!

But a tough front usually hides a soft interior, I think.<br /><br />@Anonymous Thank you! It can be hard because publishing is such a competitive business that you'd rather be in the trend. However, they change so fast that I don't see it as a great career move anyway.<br /><br />@June M Thanks! I hope to have three books in the series total. The first, Giving It Up, is Allie's story. The next is Shelly's book, and the last would be Philip's. Thanks!<br /><br />@bn100 Thanks :)<br /><br />@marybelle So true! And sometimes a book will break out and defy all trends. I think readers are looking for a great story, first and foremost.

You get to meet almost the full cast in the first book :)<br /><br />@Karen Thank you and what a great question! Maybe the villains, because they need to be both strong enough to be scary (and thus worthy of the villain title) but also human enough to be redeemable. They are the heroes of their own stories, so you have to fully understand what it is, even if you're only writing down the part that intersects with your hero's story.Amber Linhttp://www.authoramberlin.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36453707.post-38152625588023886122012-07-09T06:26:19.514-07:002012-07-09T06:26:19.514-07:00Hi Amber,

You are a new-to-me author so the more I discover about your book, the happier I'll be!<br /><br />What characters are the hardest/easiest for you to write: The hero, the heroine, the villain (or villainess), the secondary male & female characters? What are the most fun to write?Karen Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732638672537005826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36453707.post-1313881455403821242012-07-09T05:54:18.950-07:002012-07-09T05:54:18.950-07:00How many books will there be in this series?

Can't wait to read it to see more of Allie and Colin and how they help heal each other's "broken parts."<br /><br />e.balinski(at)att(dot)netJoannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11607487527101899211noreply@blogger.com
