To Have and to Hoax...

THE SURROGATE HUSBAND

Entangled Lovestruck

Wild child lingerie store owner Lucy Hamilton is a happily confirmed bachelorette. As far as she's concerned, men are something best enjoyed in small doses, never to be allowed too close. Then Lucy's mother tells her Aunt Bev that Lucy has eloped and is married--a tiny lie only meant to appease the dying woman...until Aunt Bev miraculously recovers. Now Lucy needs to find a "husband" for an upcoming family wedding, and fast.

Fortunately, Lucy's ridiculously hot, ridiculously straitlaced new accountant Dex Levian is willing to be her stand-in spouse for the weekend. And that's when the trouble really begins. For starters, Dex's "involvement" with a client―no matter how irresistible―might ruin a merger he hopes will make his career. Worse still, the chemistry between Dex and Lucy is more than convincing―it's sizzling. But for Lucy, falling for her fake new husband is the most dangerous thing she can do...

READ a little . . .

Lucy folded her arms over her chest. “We can’t ask him to be my fake husband. First of all, I haven’t agreed to play this game. Secondly, Dex is my accountant, not my boyfriend. I hardly know him outside our professional dealings. And I just met him in person for the first time five minutes ago!”

“Let’s just ask him,” her mom said. “See if he’d even consider it.”

Through the door, Dex coughed loudly, as if to remind them he was still waiting.

Lucy motioned toward the sound. “Come on. We can’t leave him out there. He’s an important, busy man. I’m sure he has numbers to crunch or something.” Swallowing hard, she pulled the door back open and headed to the sales floor. And found Dex examining a pair of red lacy crotch-less panties. He didn’t look in the least confused by them, which sometimes happened to the more clueless men who came in to buy something for their girlfriends or wives.

His gaze skimmed over her body so fast she wasn’t really sure she’d seen it. Was he imagining her in those panties?

A warm flush started at her ears and worked its way down to her throat and neck.

With a barely concealed amused expression on his face, he returned the underwear to the display table. “Everything okay?”

Mom went over to him. “I…we…Lucy has a question for you.” Placing a palm in the middle of Lucy’s back, she shoved her forward. Lucy stumbled, righting herself just before she slammed into Dex’s broad chest.

Coward.

A slow, sexy grin settled on his lips. “Something you want to ask me?”

GETTING TO KNOW WYNTER

ANGI: How often to you get lost in a story?

WYNTER: Not as often as I’d like anymore! When my husband, who is in law enforcement, used to work nights and my kids were small, I had loads of reading time. But now hubby is on days and the kids are in college. My alone time is nearly non-existent, so there’s no more slipping away to read. However, I do reserve my daily stationary bike session for some Kindle time ;-)

ANGI: What’s the first book you remember reading? 

WYNTER: A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I fell in love with the story—at first. Until poor Sara was left destitute. But since it all worked out in the end, I forgave the author for making me cry in the middle. I still adore that book.

ANGI: What do you like about the hero of your book?

WYNTER: Despite being a CPA, Dex is to-die-for sexy! He protects those he cares about and he never gives up on Lucy.

ANGI: Fairy Tale or Action Adventure?

WYNTER: Definitely Fairy Tale. I’ve always been one to swoon over Cinderella’s or Snow White’s prince, much to my husband’s dismay. (He’s a huge Action Adventure fan). He doesn’t mind the swooning, but he’d rather it be over Hans Solo or some dude wielding a very large caliber gun!

ANGI: What was the first story you remember writing?

WYNTER: It’s a little embarrassing, and a little funny at the same time. I was about nine years old and angry with my mother for something I can’t remember. I had a school assignment to write a one-page story, so I wrote one about a very cruel mother duck getting her comeuppance. My teacher apparently thought my work was either good enough or humorous enough to show my mother during the next parent-teacher conference. Thankfully, my parents were more amused than mad. And a writer was born!

ANGI: What’s your favorite movie of all time?

WYNTER: I’m a Mel Brooks fan, and my all-time favorite is Young Frankenstein. I think I’ve watched that one about a dozen times. It never gets old, and never fails to lift my mood.

ANGI: Who’s your favorite villain?

WYNTER: I’ve always loved Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty. She’s so evil and dark and powerful. Honestly, I always rooted for her. I was thrilled when the movie starring Angelina Jolie recently came out and portrayed her much more sympathetically, although she did lose a bit of her villainous appeal.

ANGI: What is your biggest vice?

WYNTER: Boy, I’m glad you said biggest, because if I had to list them all, we’d be here all day. I have a serious addiction to ice coffee. The problem is so bad that I now buy the stuff in half gallon cartons—four at a time. I’m considering starting a support group.

ANGI: How is it working with hot guys and sexy women all day?

WYNTER: Gee, it’s really tough. When I worked in ‘the real world’ before I became a writer, I had to deal with irate clients and be away from home long hours. It’s so difficult to make that long commute into my home office wearing my pj’s and to fire up my imagination. Conjuring all those sexy men and women and manipulating them into all sorts of interesting scenarios is just brutal! I really miss that work-a-day world. NOT!

A TEXAS RESCUE CHRISTMAS
Texas Rescue, book 2

Home for Christmas 

Trey Waterston has been on the outside looking in for so long he nearly forgot where home is. But when he has to go back to the ranch that is his Texas birthright, he expects it to be as difficult to navigate as everything else in his life. He does not expect to find a halfhearted search afoot for a missing heiress. Beautiful and innocent Rebecca Cargill has disappeared, and nightfall—and a snowstorm—is coming. If they don't find her, she could die. 

Not on my watch. Instinctively, and directed only by a photograph, Trey knows he is the only one who can help her. Maybe he can finally claim his legacy. But why is he suddenly so sure Rebecca is a part of it?

A LITTLE ABOUT CARO

Despite a no-nonsense background as a West Point graduate and U.S. Army officer, Caro Carson has always treasured the happily-ever-after of a good romance novel. After reading romances no matter where in the world the Army sent her, Caro began a career in the pharmaceutical industry. Little did she know the years she spent discussing science with physicians would provide excellent story material for her new career as a romance author. Now, Caro is delighted to be living her own happily-ever-after with her husband and two children in the great state of Florida, a location which has saved the coaster-loving theme park fanatic a fortune on plane tickets.

AND A LITTLE BIT MORE

ANGI: How often to you get lost in a story?

CARO: Every day.  Every single day, I’m either reading or writing.  One of the great benefits of being a published author is that I can legitimately say I’m working when I’m getting lost in a story.  The guilt factor is still there when I escape into a book—because I’ve got kids and a house and shouldn’t I really be doing laundry?—but I try to squash that guilt flat as a bug.  Being an author helps.  But even if you have no intention of writing, you should squash that guilt bug when you take time to read.  Reading is good for the soul.  It’s art. It’s essential to life.

ANGI: Can you tell us about a real-life hero you’ve met?

CARO:  I love you for giving me the chance to talk about two of the most memorable people I ever met. When I was a cadet at West Point, I volunteered to work backstage at the Eisenhower Hall Theater. Usually, this meant I gave up my precious few hours of leisure on a Saturday to set up the stage for concerts. It was fun to rig the lights for the Beach Boys or to stand by with costume changes for the dancers of 42^nd Street. The theater is as far from the military world as you can get, so I enjoyed the change of pace.

Now comes the part where I get rewarded for failing to report for duty on time:  I was late to the theater the night that Johnny Cash was in concert.  I hadn’t changed into combat boots and camouflage yet, and since I was still in the formal Dress Gray, the theater folks asked me if I would mind escorting Mr. and Mrs. Cash for the evening instead of hauling equipment. Being tardy to anything at West Point was usually treated as a crime, and in this case, crime paid!

Mr. and Mrs. Cash (cadets address everyone formally) were two of the most charismatic people I’ve ever met. This is not to be confused with flamboyant.  On the contrary, they were unassuming and humble, but they had an energy that made you glad to be standing with them.  They were more interested in everyone around them than they were in themselves.  I couldn’t believe that June Carter Cash was really so interested in me and my experience as a woman at West Point.  She wanted to talk with me. She made me feel like I was interesting and important. I couldn’t believe Johnny Cash (“It’s just Johnny; you don’t have to call me Mr. Cash”) wanted to know my opinion on whether or not he should include a certain song in his set.  He really wanted to know my opinion. What a wonderful way to live life, as if everyone around you is interesting and important! I only knew them for a day, but years later, I cried when they each passed away.
ANGI: I cried too, Caro. Johnny Cash is a memory I have with my father. He loved everything by THE MAN IN BLACK.

ANGI: What do you like about the hero of your book?

CARO:  Ah, this hero. He’s very special to me. Trey Waterson was destined for the NFL, but he suffered a head injury during a game ten years ago. This is no fairy tale when it comes to his injury—the brain damage is real, and it is permanent. After his injury, Trey never returned home, where everyone remembers him as a superstar. Through sheer willpower, he’s carved out an anonymous but successful life for himself, but he doesn’t recognize that he’s successful.  I like him because he’s a little bitter. He’s got walls around himself and defenses firmly in place.  That may not sound likable, but I think it is realistic.  I can identify with that!  The best part, of course, is that he becomes completely heroic and swoon-worthy when he saves the heroine. For her—for love—he comes out of his personal fortress.  I think he deserves every day of happiness he’s destined for by the last page of A Texas Rescue Christmas.

ANGI: Is there a playlist you’d recommend for reading your latest release?

CARO:  I don’t have a playlist, but I do create a Pandora radio station for each book I write. For A Texas Rescue Christmas, I listened to holiday music, of course! I finished this book in June, writing on my back porch at night. I live in Florida, where it cools all the way down to 85 degrees after dark.  Yet I was listening to Christmas music and writing about frostbite in an ice storm.  I did actually put on a sweater.  If I did my job well, you’ll want a sweater, too, when you read the book.

ANGI: Fairy Tale or Action Adventure?

CARO: Good one, Angi!  I’m going to say fairy tale, because I’ve got plenty of reality, thank you very much. I want to escape into a different world.  However, some of my favorite movies are action/adventures like “Die Hard” and “Under Siege.”  Why? Because they are fairy tales, too.  The good guy wins.  Amazing friendships with unlikely characters are formed. Superhuman feats are performed by ordinary people.  Bruce Willis and Steven Segal are fairy tale characters in the best possible way.

ANGI: What is your biggest vice?

CARO: Wine. I love wine.  It’s a great cruelty that wine officially counts as “empty calories.”  Why can’t it be chock full of vitamins and minerals?  Why isn’t it the one thing you are allowed to have unlimited quantities of when you are on a diet? But nooooo….crunchy raw vegetables had to steal that show.  Darn it.

ANGI: How is it working with hot guys and sexy women all day?

CARO: I change my screen saver on my laptop with each new book I write. It’s a little embarrassing to explain to the kids why Mommy has some hot, hunky, not-Daddy guy on her computer screen.  My husband, the delightful “Cupcake Carson,” however, gets bonus points for being understanding. In fact, just two nights ago, I was feeling stuck on my current manuscript. “I can’t see the hero clearly,” I complained. Cupcake said, “Well, you should go Google hot blonde men.”  I admit, that stopped me for a second.  My husband told me to go Google hot guys?  Then I burst out laughing.  He’s definitely got this married-to-a-romance-novelist thing down!

ANGI’S GOTTA ASK: Hey, yesterday was Veteran’s Day. Thanks so much for serving our country, Caro. Do you have a special story about your time at West Point?

CARO’s GOTTA ANSWER: I guess I jumped the gun on this one with my Johnny Cash story.  That was definitely a high point during my four years at West Point.  There were, of course, very low lows as well. The Lords of Discipline vibe was very real there. I was in one of the early classes to have any women at all, so there was a lot of prejudice to face on that front in addition to the traditional hazing.  Looking back, I’d say it was the best of times and the worst of times—which frankly, it is meant to be. The bonds formed with classmates are truly for life. It’s family.

After graduation, I served in the Military Police Corps in the U.S. Army.  It was a privilege.  There’s no other way to look at the time I spent with my soldiers. I appreciate the respect for the military which a “thank you” demonstrates, but in my case, I always have to humbly pass the thanks on to those who served and didn’t live to tell the tale. God bless them.

ENCHANTED BY AN EMERALD

THE EMERALD'S LEGEND

The Brigonne Emerald was brought to England during the Crusades. It is known to have been split into three pieces in the eighteenth century.  The popular legend is that the pieces will only fall into the hands of people who need them—people who will use the stones for good.  However, those who have actually owned the gem know there is more to the legend: the gem reveals the face of the owner’s true love.

KATHERINE'S QUICK FACTS

BACKLIST

Favorite "emerald" city? Seattle is my favorite emerald city.  I love the food there and the vibe of the city.

I’m hoping to visit Dublin soon so that might change! J

Kelly or emerald green?  Emerald green

Diamonds or emeralds? I’m not partial to either.  I like them both!!!

Hiking boots or stilettos? Stilettos but my husband likes to hike so I have hiking boots too!

ANGI: Emeralds are known to make the wearer more successful, clever, funny and to be an aphrodisiac. Without spoilers, can you tell us if and how you took advantage of any superstitions in your novella?

 

CATHERINE K: The beautiful emerald in my novella has a legend attached to it, that it unites soul mates. That’s the unifying element that brings all of the couples together in the Enchanted by an Emerald anthology.

CARO: Captain Jonas Black, a pirate in 1740, is mesmerized by the vision of the woman he sees in the emerald, so I would say the aphrodisiac quality came into play.  Jonas is certain he’ll keep his resolve to use the emerald to pay a debt of honor to his brother, but when the vision becomes a real woman who drops into his life from the year 2014, his willpower is put to the test.

TERESA: I didn't really use any of the superstitions about emerald in WHEN WE GET TO PARIS. The story's hero, Henry Stewart, is devastatingly handsome, witty, charming, sensitive, brave and irresistible, with or without his emerald.

WYNTER: I wouldn’t say I took advantage of any of those superstitions, but I will say that having possession of the magical stone certainly enhanced the attraction that Jack and Natalie felt toward each other. Before the stone came into their lives, Natalie had been holding back, but when she finally allowed herself to feel something for Jack, the aphrodisiac effect definitely came into play!

NANCY: WHAT TO KEEP is a reunion story. When the heroine discovers the stone, it definitely acts as an aphrodisiac. It also gives her clarity when she's trying to sort out her future.

MIMI: Absolutely! Both my hero and heroine have had a run of bad luck—stuck on the bottom of Dame Fortune’s wheel, they’d say. The emerald reveals their instant, hot connection and gives them both a lucky break.

KATHERINE G: TO CHARM A THIEF is a caper.  The stone is tied to my heroine and her family.  Her father has spent his entire life trying to retrieve the stone. Jules doesn’t really believe in the legend at first, she just wants the stone to thwart her father.  But once Devlin enters the picture, the stakes change.

ANGI: What circumstances or who inspired the hero for Emerald Intrigue?

CATHERINE K: I need only look at photos of Viggo Mortensen (from Lord of the Rings) or Richard Armitage to see inspiration for my hero in terms of his darkly handsome appearance. J  For his character, I had no direct inspiration—although for some time, I’d been thinking about a story of a naked man found in the forest by a lady. I took that idea and asked why he was left for dead, who would do that to him, and my plot unfolded from there.

CARO: I carefully—oh, so carefully—studied photos of pirates from Errol Flynn to Jack Sparrow to Hook on “Once Upon a Time,” but none looked as gritty and tough as I believe a real captain would have to be.  I found the right kind of model in the artwork for the Assassin’s Creed “Black Flag” video game, however. Physically fit, heavily armed, constantly on the lookout for both danger and opportunity?  Perfect!  Let’s drop a woman into his arms from three centuries in the future and see what happens.

TERESA: I researched the archives of WW2 soldiers’ accounts that are now available on-line. These histories were all inspiring, but I found three soldiers’ stories that fit my plot line. Those soldier’s names are mentioned in my Dear Reader Letter at the end of the novella. I don’t want to give away Henry and Simone’s journey, but the major events are based on actual accounts.

WYNTER: Sounds corny, but my husband is always in the back of my mind whenever I write a law enforcement type of hero. Jack, though, is a wounded hero, one of my favorite kinds to write.

NANCY: I love reunion stories. They're my favorite ones to write. I'm also obsessed with the TV show REVENGE. I modeled Sawyer Sullivan after Nick Wechsler, who plays Jack Porter on the show.

MIMI:  I enjoy reading about alpha men, but I’m too hardheaded to actually be in a relationship with one—we’d do nothing but argue! On the other hand, I’ve always loved artistic men, the ones brimming with wit and ideas, the fun ones who stimulate your mind as well as your body. Guys like this are often overlooked in the genre despite their sex appeal and intelligence and innovative, er, moves. Artistic hottie + creative brain = peel you off the sheets wow!

KATHERINE G: I love the movie “To Catch a Thief,” so when we were talking about jewels the first thing that popped into my mind was a jewel thief.  And since Jules was going to be stealing gems, Devlin had to be the guy who wanted to catch her.  I modeled him after Daniel Craig’s James Bond: suave when he has to be, physical all the time and a little bit broken when it comes it relationships.

ANGI: Is your hero superstitious? believe in lucky charms? or that destiny is set?

CATHERINE: He isn’t superstitious, but he’s intrigued by possibility and the legend that the stone can unite soul mates. In my story, he finds that the legend is definitely true. J

CARO: My hero must face the destiny question directly, since the heroine is from the future and knows how the famous pirate comes to his end.  I don’t want to give any spoilers, but imagine if someone knew what happened to you.  Would you want him or her to tell you?

TERESA: Like most soldiers in war, Henry Stewart holds on to his lucky charm and believes that it really is helping him.

WYNTER: Jack isn’t superstitious at first, until he notices that the emerald glows with Natalie’s image, which quickly makes him a believer. Doesn’t hurt that he’s wanted her for a while!

NANCY: Sawyer has never stopped loving Emma. Even though it seems as if life is determined to keep them apart, he believes they are destined to be together.

MIMI: My hero, Wyatt, is used to creating his own worlds. As a graphic artist, he’s more comfortable when he’s in control of his work, but since he’s come down with the world’s worst case of artist’s block, he’ll try pretty much anything to get his pencils moving again. In steps Felicity with that lucky stone and…

KATHERINE G: Devlin is a former Interpol agent so he’s not ruling out anything that comes up in an investigation.  Also, his family believes strongly in the power of love, so he’s keeping an open mind.

OUR QUESTION FOR READERS:

Some of the heroes and heroines in these stories accept the visions they see in the emerald. Others cannot believe what they see with their own eyes.  Do you think you’d be a believer or a skeptic if it happened to you?
