Hey everyone! It’s Titilating Tuesday at my messageboard and I’m putting up excerpts from some WIP and upcoming books. Come on by!
Let’s see, what else? Oh, I’m editing Taking Chase right now and it’s not too bad. Just fleshing out some stuff. I can’t wait for you all to meet Cassie. And for those of you who’ve met Shane in Giving Chase, he’s back only more mature and ready for love.
This is sort of what I imagine Shane to look like, only a bit more blond and with faded jeans and cowboy boots. Anyway, I’m trying to walk the line between writing him as who he is - an arrogant man who sometimes can be a jerk and an outright jerk. He’s a big character, complicated. Wounded. But he reins it in for Cassie. At the same time, it’s got to be believable. No guy like Shane is gonna paint a woman’s toenails and watch Terms of Endearment with her on a Friday night. Still, he’s not going to treat her like he treated Maggie. He’s rough around the edges and defensive, but for her, he works to be a better man.
I hope that shows in the final product!
And speaking of my Chase Brothers - my editor told me yesterday Chased will release in March and Making Chase in June! Hee!
How is everyone today anyway?
Loved the continuing saga of the Chase brothers.

by Ali October 17th, 2006 at 11:47 pmCathy, thank you! I do too. I have to admit I fell in love with them after about three pages when I wrote Giving Chase.
Ali - thank you! Me as well.
