Guest Post with Author, Clare James

 

Author Interview at Kitty's Book Spot!.

 

Hi 2kasmom! So happy to be here today, thanks for having me!!!

 

Your book is about a race car driver. Are you a NASCAR fan or INDY fan yourself?

 

*I’ve become a fan writing this book. I was very much like Viv at the start of the story—I didn’t understand or appreciate racing. This book was going to be about a baseball player, but an editor suggested car racing. It was the right move and I fell in love with it. The culture and setting of racing in this book becomes its own world and it’s just a blast!

 

What was the first book you remember getting excited about?

 

*I’m sure there were a ton when I was little, but I was in deep with the Harry Potter series, The Hunger Games, and Divergent.

 

Are there any secrets about you that you are willing to let our readers know?

 

*Gosh, I don’t know. I’m not all that exciting. Okay, I’ve mentioned that I was a dancer in my previous life before, but I was actually an NFL cheerleader as well. It was a ton of fun!

 

If you could be any animal for a day - what would be it be?

 

*My dog. She is so spoiled and has a great life!

 

Do you like to listen to music while you write?

 

*I like to listen to music before I write. Once I start, I usually need silence.

 

Has music ever inspired you to write a specific scene?

 

*Sure. For Caught, I listened to a lot of songs from the TV show Nashville.

Cherry Pie (Mercury Rising Book 1) by Samantha Kane     Date of Publication: September 16, 2014   Blurb:   You can go home again if you can get a foot in the door.   Mercury Rising, Book 1   A year after packing and moving from L.A. to Mercury, North Carolina, John Ford still hasn't adjusted to the heat. Or to life without his long-time partner. As he fixes up the old house he bought, the quiet becomes his only companion, and he's content with that—until a deep-voiced stranger plants himself under a tree across the street.   Eight years ago, Connor Meecham left someone behind in that house—himself. Now he's back to find the man he used to be, before drugs and prison sent his life careening off the tracks. But it's not his mother's face peering through the window any more. It's a man who seems as lost as Conn himself.   When John learns what the house—and the dying town—mean to Conn, he finds himself opening the door to his heart. Just

This is book #6, in the True North series .  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding of the series, and too avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this compelling series in order. Skye returns to the place she hates the most to help out the sister she always wanted.  When she gets there, tables have turned.  There is now danger if she pushes too far in finding her sister.  Who can she turn to? Benito AKA "Ben" is a blast from the past, who has always had a thing for Skye.  She was the one that got away, and he has no intentions of letting that happen again.  He also has to find her sister and solve his case. While this author is a definite auto purchase, she always brings the goods to the table.  In this story, we get a second chance romance with such heart and heat that every page is a sizzling delight!  I loved the banter, and was eagerly turning each page to get to the next.  I give this book a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***Th
