Carol Van Den Hende https://bit.ly/45LkzsF Welcome, today we are talking with Carol Van Den Hende! Thanks, Carol, you for taking time out of your busy schedule to answer a few questions. First, let`s delve into who you are.

You are involved in so many activities besides writing. Can you tell us a little about them?

Like many Coffee Time Romance readers, I wear multiple hats. For instance, I’m a wife and a mom to twins. By day, I lead the Responsible Use of AI (Artificial Intelligence) for Mars Incorporated. Outside of work, I enjoy contributing on Boards of Directors; recently I served on the Board for a school for students with autism.

Can you share a little something about yourself that’s not mentioned in your bio on your website?

I’m an avid pet parent to two Siberian kitties, one skittish and one goofy. Follow me on social media, and you’ll often see their furry faces on my Facebook or Instagram feeds.

For fun, I love to move to music. At my gym, you might find me grooving to Zumba, Hip-Hop or Bollywood dance classes. If you’ve read my books, have you noticed how my main character Orchid Paige loves to dance?

How long have you been writing?

I’ve been penning stories since childhood. The Goodbye Orchid series was a decade in the making.

What have you found most challenging about it?

I lead a busy life, so I often feel short on time for writing. When I’m able to carve out time, I treasure it and strive to make the most of it!

Now, let’s hear about your series, Goodbye Orchid, which has won awards for Disability Awareness. Can you tell us a little more about the books?

The series asks the question: ‘What happens when life changes in an instant?” In Orchid Blooming, you’ll meet half-Asian Orchid Paige, an executive in the beauty industry whose life changed when she lost her parents at a young age. Now as an adult, she wants to win a work trip to Asia, to feel closer to the memory of her ...

Gail Pallotta https://bit.ly/4nugmQr Gail is an artist in the sense of a good murder mystery with a large dose of love and romance. Her tales are filled with intrigue and fun. What an awesome gift to have in a writer. Check out her website www.gailpallotta.com for a list of her wonderful books. There’s not much better than a writer who pours her heart into her works. Thank you for the interview Gail. You are awesome!

When you first found out you were getting published, how did it feel?

As a student in college in a professional writing class, my assignment was to submit something I wrote for publication. I decided on a poem. When it was published, I was amazed, but thrilled beyond the moon.

When you opened your first box of books, who was the first person you called to tell them it had arrived, and why?

I published articles for many years before I ventured into the world of book publishing, even though it had been a dream of mine. My husband and a cousin had encouraged me to attempt a book. When the published copies arrived, I immediately showed them to my husband and called my cousin.

Are your characters created from people you know?

I create characters by giving them a personality, a profession, a goal, flaws and good points then I put them in a situation or two and let them journal until I become well acquainted with them. I imagine there are bits and pieces of people I know or have observed in each of them, but none of them are one particular person.

How long does it take you to write your novels?

It doesn’t take long to get a first draft, but I keep re-writing. I like to take a long time to sharpen my characters and plot. I’m in the midst of writing a three-book series, with a book due every six months. I got the second one, Dangerous Detour, finished in time for my publisher to get it out in seven months. I’ve made that a goal for my third one.

If you could be married...

Miles!”

The shout was drowned out by the sound of splintering wood, rumbling growls, and the feeling of his arm bending the wrong way as he landed on the old wood floor. Awesome. Really. This was just…the absolute best.

He groaned, wincing as he tried to get up, only for his arm to flare with pain from fingers to shoulder as soon as he moved it. “Dammit…” He looked up as footsteps approached, the hair on the back of his neck standing up. Crap. He was going to die. There’d been a lot of close calls, but this was it. Was he a little relieved? Maybe, if he was being honest with himself…

“Are you dead?” a familiar voice called, and he relaxed as a woman crouched through the hole he’d left in the cabin wall. She looked pretty battered from the fighting outside, black hair matted with blood by her temple, claw marks on her forearms ...

A match destined to end

Yet impossible to resist…

Since he inherited a dukedom, all Declan seems to do is put out fires. The latest? Deterring his feckless cousin from chasing a reprehensible woman. Except Grace Nayao Richards is far from reprehensible, and the beguiling, feisty young woman draws Declan closer…

As the illegitimate daughter of an earl, Grace needs an advantageous marriage to protect her and her sister’s futures. The handsome duke’s solution?

About TRAPPING THE BUTTERFLY
Hot Springs Arkansas
The 1920s

On the eve of her eighteenth birthday, Bethany is eager to celebrate at the Arlington Hotel. More than anything she wants to cut her long hair into a bob, raise her hemline, and learn to do the Charleston.

Unfortunately, every aspect of her life is strictly controlled by her aunt and uncle who want to keep her--and her inheritance--stiflingly close. If they have their way, she will return from her holiday engaged to her uncle’s new business partner.

Little do any of them know Al Capone has rented the fourth floor of the Arlington, and one of his men has taken a liking to Bethany. All that stands between the innocent young woman and the hardened gangster is Detective Paul Tollick.

Instantly drawn to Bethany’s enchanting beauty, Paul will do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Between deadly criminals and oppressive family ties, can he help her claim the freedom to follow her heart?

The Stolen Bride: Kings of Fury, Book 2 by Gena Showalter https://bit.ly/4nbcqE8

Clover Deering is living her best life. Kind of. Maybe. Okay, so, not at all. The owner of Fur-Ever Pet Spa is deeply in debt and battling a temper that scares even herself. Things go from bad to catastrophe when a terrifying man claiming to be a berserker king demands an impossible mission: force a rival royal to welcome evil into his heart. In exchange, he`ll gift her with a prize she cannot resist—meeting the twin she never knew existed. The problem? King Viktor Endris isn`t just scary, he`s downright feral.

When captured by Viktor, Clover enacts her own plan. Tame the unhinged warrior, turn him into an ally, and use him to rescue her sister. Not an easy task as Viktor is at war with ferocious turul-shifters, talks to an invisible friend and flips from controlled to chaos in an instant. As their undeniable connection deepens, she discovers a heartbreaking truth. Falling for her is Viktor`s only path to ruin. Yet without his downfall, her twin`s fate is sealed. The worst part? Clover just might be falling for him, too. But in the end, only one can survive. Her man, or her sister.
