If you really want to help your local and favorite writers we hope you will take the time to read their books and write reviews on Goodreads. The reviews will eventually filter down to Amazon if you are not a verified member already. Writing a different interview on their website would be really nice too. Then you can share it on your social media pages. If we can all do that every time we read a book and give an honest review it will really help promote our more creative friends and family. With the changes being made in publishing to more self-published authors, now, more than ever they are having to do their own marketing. This is on top of writing the stories.
Strike the Fire by Lacey Dancer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed reading a romance type story that involved older people. There are more of us out there now-a-days who grew up reading romance novels just about those in their early twenties or early thirties and we really need more stories for our generation in their forties and fifties. Just because we are older doesn’t mean we don’t all look for a companion if we no longer have one. This is the next installment in the Life Oak series and continues with the same characters in the first two books and adds a few more that we hope to see in future editions. Now the project is getting underway but there are still tense situations to deal with. This time it’s mother nature.
Some quotes from the book that we liked in particular:
As big as he was, he didn’t want to feel like he was going to lose his lover in the sheets. He grinned to himself at the image.
“Her black hair reminded him of a panther he had seen roaming a habitat in Africa. She was all fluid grace and power. “
“Black hair and Elizabeth Taylor eyes had a way of creating sexual tension before she even opened her mouth. When she added a slender body and her lack of height, she generally got more hot looks and interesting propositions than the average female.”
“She glared at the moon washed square of the sky she could see in the skylight above her bed. She did not get involved with business associates.”
“Maxwell Greene was not going to be her lover. She controlled her body. Her body did not control her.”
We are still hoping to start a round-robin blog tour of all the North Florida published writers next month. If you are a published writer who lives in the North Florida region please get in touch and we will add you to the list.
