Top Ten List:

1.Why do you choose to write romance? Do you write any other genres?

I have always been a romantic, not the loose flowy dresses and head in the clouds kind, though. I am more of the optimistic/realistic, happy ending seeking, seeing how two people could be great together kind of person. 

Yes, I write other genres. I have a two books of a speculative fantasy trilogy published, and I am working on a science fiction saga that is a prequel to a short story available on Amazon.



2.How long does it take you to write a book, typically?

It depends. Typically, I would say it takes me about a year, but my shortest period took eight months. My longest project demanded more than a decade, so it depends. I definitely aim for finishing in a year.



3.Since a lot of romance books show both male and female perspectives, share with us the most difficult thing about writing the perspective of the opposite gender?

Men see the world differently than women. They tend to be more action focused and less feelings focused, but they definitely feel as well. Writing from a man’s perspective can be especially difficult if the character is unwilling to admit they are emotionally involved. However, there are ways around it. Thankfully, my husband is very good at pointing out when my male characters aren’t acting logically enough.



4.What would you say is your interesting writing quirk?

Hmm… According to my readers, I am good at writing interesting male characters. A recent reviewer commented on how much she liked my characters’ banter. I also tend to write secondary and tertiary characters who then end up with their own stories or, as in the case of the Earl of Dentin, take over the whole series.



5.Tell us a bit about a future project you are working on? Do you have any little sneak peeks you can share?

Currently, my project is a nine book series loosely inspired by fairy tales. The Beauty and the Beast novel is written and partially edited. I am wrapping up a mashup between Rapunzel and East of the Sun West of the Moon. Next, I am debating writing one inspired by the Month Brothers or a completely new idea called Constant Companion.

Next on my writing list, though, is the Fourth Novel of Rhynan. It doesn’t have a title yet, but it involves a mysterious character from Mercy and a yoeman’s daughter as they work to protect the infant prince. Dentin is also involved, of course.

A sneak peek from Grace by Contract, my Beauty and the Beast novel from the Duke of Brackenhurst’s point of view:

As I shoved open the heavy door to my workroom, I was surprised to find the room dark, a curtain pulled across the window blocking out the pre-dawn glow and the fire burning low in the grate letting off a meager heat.

Muttering against whoever had blocked the room’s chief source of natural light, I thumped my way across the dim space without a thought to the fact I couldn’t see the obstacles in the dimness. Upon reaching the window, I tugged at the curtain. 

It billowed and landed at my feet in a pool of green linen. Only then did I recognize it as one of the linen tablecloths that my father had spread on his worktables when the room had been his. Whoever had hung it hadn’t even secured it. 

I leaned over to pluck it from the floor before I recalled my injury. Pain laced through my knee, sending me scrambling with my handless left arm for a chair to prevent a total loss of dignity. One was within reach. I fell into it.

It was then I spotted her.

Three tables away Grace sat in my customary chair, head resting on her crossed arms as they lay on the open log book before her. With her face turned away from the window, I could only see the waves of unbound hair cascading over my book, desk, and blotter. Something in my gut twisted in a strange mixture of desire and irritation. Why was she here and not in her bed? Who had hung the makeshift curtain? She wouldn’t have been able to even with the increased height of standing on a chair.

As I sat there, temporarily enraptured with watching the rise and the fall of her shoulders beneath the luxurious waves of hair, I wondered what to do. Part of me wanted to let her sleep and regretted that I had risked disturbing her rest by removing the curtain. 

Another part of me wished to wake her and demand to know what she had been doing with my record books. They were definitely not within the scope of her position as my scribe. She was supposed to be writing and reading letters for me, not messing with accounts. Those were under Faramond’s and Rambler’s purview. 

Then there was the issue of working around her if she didn’t wake.

~~~~~

6.What is the most romantic date you have ever been on? Or, what is your idea of the perfect Valentine Date?

My husband, knowing how much I love Jane Austen movies, arranged to surprise me with a birthday viewing of Pride and Prejudice (the Kiera Knightley version) in a second run theater after I had given up hope of seeing it in theaters. Then he watched it with me and discussed it during dinner after the movie.

Release Date: March 12, 2020





Blurb


There’s
only one thing you need to know about Scarsdale High.

The Royals rule here.



We say when to jump and how high, and the rest follow like lemmings because to
do otherwise is social suicide.



As cheer captain, I have everything I’ve ever wanted, including Scarsdale’s star
quarterback, Navrin Fox.



There’s just one problem … his twin brother.



Lev Fox knows exactly how to push my buttons—he’s been doing it since
childhood, after all—but when I give into my baser instincts and let the boy I
hate best me in a battle of wills, it’s not only my reputation as Queen Bee on
the line, it’s my heart too.



Secrets, betrayal, and lies—that’s what we Royals do best.

But no one ever said anything about love.

Excerpt

“I’ve done everything I could to ruin you, to hurt you, and I never wanted that. I never wanted anything but for you to be happy … just not happy with him. I wanted you for myself. I wanted you happy with me.”

“I am happy with you.” I sob, and the irony isn’t lost on me.

He takes my chin in his thumb and forefinger and tilts it up to me. “Happiness isn’t ruin, Cub. I’ve destroyed you. I got what I wanted, and it wasn’t what I wanted at all. If you love me, if you ever loved me, you’ll let me go.”

I shake my head, but I know that steely determination in his eyes. I’ve seen it before. Too many times to count.

Lev kisses my forehead, my nose, and finally my lips. I grab onto his shirt and tug him closer. I try to pull him down on me, I hold on for dear life, because my world is spinning out of control and Lev Fox is the only thing worth holding onto.

Excerpt:

“Let me see.”
Derrick had gathered some supplies from Jed, who still carried my backpack.
There were unused rags leftover from Nick’s gunshot wound and a sewing kit in
his hands. The doctor had gotten down on one knee, set his supplies aside, and
was staring at my injured hand.
His jaw and
fists were clenched. I could see on his face that he was holding a part of himself
back as he drew near me.
I rolled my
eyes. “I’m fine. I’m sure you have more important things to do. My wounds
aren’t deep.”
The muscles in
his forearm tightened at my words. His voice sounded strained. “That’s for me
to decide.” He grabbed my hand and turned it over impatiently before dropping
it. “Flex your fingers.”
I did so easily.
He nodded his
head. “Good. The cuts don’t appear to be deep enough to have done damage to
your nerves. I don’t think you need stitches.”
I raised one
eyebrow. “Told you I’m fine.”
“But that
doesn’t mean you don’t need my help.” His dark gaze met mine as his voice grew
hoarse. I could hear whatever he was holding back coming through. “You’re
making a big mess with all this blood. Have I told you how much I hate messes?”
“You didn’t have
to, I could tell.”
My words were
nonchalant, but my heart was pounding loudly in my ears as he licked his lips.
He looked ready to either throw me off the edge of this barn for offending him
with my uncleanliness or like he was the real zombie here and ready to eat
me...
“We need to
clean you before I bandage you up.” He lifted one of my hands towards his face.
“It stopped raining and we don’t have any water to spare, so I’ve been left
with no choice. It’s not the most sanitary option, but...”
He parted his
full, sexy lips and popped one of my fingers into his wet mouth. I wanted to
protest, but I was paralyzed. He sucked the blood off like some kind of
ravenous vampire. I gasped in surprise, feeling weak in the knees. His mouth
was so soft, warm, gentle, and slow. He sucked on each of my fingers in turn
until I shut my eyes, ready to give myself over to him.
He moaned as he
continued to suck and I couldn’t help imagining that mouth exploring other
places. We would-
“Stop!”
The moment was
interrupted as Nick grabbed him by the shoulder and yanked him up and off of
me. Nick punched him in the stomach. Derrick grunted and hunched over, almost
collapsing to his knees again.
“I told you to
keep your hands off of her,” Nick growled the words. “If you touch her again,
I’ll hurtle you off this roof and let the zombies take care of you for me.”

 Interview with E.B. Black

Do your characters seem to hijack the story or do you feel like you have the reigns of the story?
Neither. My characters and I hold hands. I give them obstacles to face, they talk to me about their feelings, dreams, and secrets pasts. Together we make something beautiful.
In the past, I used to wrestle with them, but I’ve learned how to be their friends now.

Convince us why you feel your book is a must read.
My book is a must-read because I write about real things and real love. Yes, it’s a reverse harem and most people aren’t going to be in that kind of relationship, but the characters and the things they feel for each other are just as intense and beautiful as any other kind of romance.
Their love will be challenged many times in the book. It takes place in a zombie apocalypse and in a scary scenario like that, things get really intense.

Have you written any other books that are not published?
Yes, I’ve written many books and learned lots about writing along the way. Some books never get published. Others have a nice run, but are retired. I have books that fall into both of those categories.

Pen or type writer or computer? 
I’ve almost always written on a computer. I think writing with pen and paper is whimsical and lovely, but I have terrible handwriting and my hand easily cramps up. So I stick to typing.

Anything you would like to say to your readers and fans?
With my books, I hope to bring you on an emotional journey. I want you to get angry with my characters, I want you to cry with them, and fall in love with them. I try to make them feel as important to you as real people in your life.
I want my writing to help you find meaning in your life, but also give you an escape.
Give me a chance. Read one of my books because you’re the ones I write them for.
