It Started Like This

(A Chelsea Camaron approved message)
Chelsea Camaron and I do a lot of plotting together. In fact, she’s the person I call to help me through my writer’s blocks. For me, the Regulators MC was an idea I thought up shortly after writing Secret Maneuvers. In depth, the Regulators MC is quite a bit different from what I’ve seen concept wise. However, I was intimidated by the idea of stepping into the biker romance arena. So, I put the idea on the back burner although CC said she thought it would totally kick ass. Time passed, and then I started writing Stripping Her Defenses. This was where I knew the Regulators MC would make an entrance into my writing world. They were always involved in Riley Sullivan’s story line and how he finds his ex-wife after their divorce. But the more I thought about them, the more I loved the idea of them. Still, I didn’t think I could do it on my own. I, admittedly, am not the expert at that sort of alpha man. Then it hit me. I needed my best friend. She writes an alpha man like nobody’s business! So I called CC and I laid it all out for her, positively sure I was going to have to beg. And I would have too. I would have begged and pleaded and even shed crocodile tears to talk her into the Regulators MC project. Luckily, she didn’t make me do all that. She immediately started spouting ideas for the series and I asked her if she would marry me and have little author babies with me. She told me our husband’s probably wouldn’t like that idea but we could totally write those books. So, I gave up the idea of running away and marrying my bestie and settled for writing the Regulators MC instead. I’m SO glad she said yes. She’s breathed this amazing, unbelievable life into characters in a way I never could have accomplished. I’m a lucky, lucky woman to have a friend who balances me so beautifully. She’s my ying to her yang. In closing, I can’t wait for everyone to read Ice. It already blows me away and it’s not even done yet. These characters… AHHH I love these characters. I can honestly say I couldn’t have done it without the fabulous, incredible, marvelous (I’m kissing my best friend’s ass here, bear with me) stunning, phenomenal friend. Hopefully, after you read Ice, you’ll love it as much as we both do. Thanks for having me here today! Happy reading everyone!

Jessie Lane is the best selling author of The Star Series, Big Bad Bite Series and the Ex Ops Series. She lives in Kentucky with her two little Rock Chicks in the making and her over protective alpha husband. She has a passionate love for reading and writing naughty romance, cliff hanging suspense, and out-of-this-world characters that demand your attention, or threaten to slap you around until you do pay attention to them. Jessie writes Adult Paranormal and Contemporary Romance & Upper YA Fantasy/Paranormal Romance.   Chelsea Camaron
Chelsea Camaron was born and raised in Coastal North Carolina. She currently resides in Southern Louisiana with her husband and two children but her heart is always Carolina day dreaming. Chelsea always wanted to be a writer, but like most of us, let fear of the unknown grab a hold of her dream; she realized that if she was going to tell her daughter to go for her dreams, that it was time to follow her own advice. Chelsea grew up turning wrenches alongside her father, and from that grew her love for old muscle cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles, which just so happened to inspired her ‘Daddy’s Girls’ series. Her love for reading has sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in the works. When she is not spending her days writing you can find her playing with her kids, attending car shows, going on motorcycle rides on the back of her husband’s Harley, snuggling down with her new favorite book or watching any movie that Vin Diesel might happen to be in. She hates being serious and is still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and, Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to always have fun.

Excerpt
~Morgan~ Looking at my phone screen, I smile at the text in front of me. I’m off 2nite. Movie @ ur house or mine? Texting back, I tell my best friend I will be at her house after work with takeout. It is not often she gets a Friday night off. Working in a bank, I have every weekend off. Casey’s career path is far different than mine, though, and it is one that requires weekend time. My day drags on as I review current investment portfolios and market changes. I have the best job ever. I get paid to spend other people’s money as an investment broker here in South Beach. My life is sun, sand, and dollar bills. Before going to Casey’s, I stop by my condo and change clothes. The down side to my job is the stuffy suits I have to wear: reasonable, past knee-length skirts; reasonable women’s dress pants; and reasonable button up shirts. I might hate them, yet in a sad way, the dress code fits my life—reasonable. It’s not long into girl’s night before the difference in our lifestyle’s show. “Damn, we’re not even halfway through the first movie, and you’re ready for bed? What the hell? Grandparents stay up later than you,” my best friend wakes me out of my doze. “Sorry, some of us keep normal business hours,” I joke back. “Yeah, your hours scream forty-two, not twenty-four, as does everything else in your life.” “I’m not that bad,” I protest half-heartedly. However, that voice of doubt says “maybe I am.” Maybe my stiff upbringing has rubbed off on me more than I care to admit. My parents raised me to be an example. As the oldest of three, I had to be the light to guide my younger sisters, Madyson and Mallory. Everything with my parents was about fitting the mold, keeping up appearances. Their brainwashing worked to some degree. Going away to college did nothing for me in my attempt to escape my overbearing parents, either. No, they live in my head, every rule engraved into my brain matter. Too bad no one warned me there is no cure and no escape once they get those rules engrained into your very being. I am a twenty-four-year-old virgin. A college educated, suit wearing, have my shit together prude. Yep, that’s me. I wouldn’t know what to do with a penis if it was given to me gift wrapped in Christmas paper, and topped with a bow. Morgan Ann Powell: pathetic, stiff, and borderline pseudo-old lady—that is me. I am, quite possibly, the only woman in her twenties who can count on one hand how many guys she has kissed. I am not cut out for parties, guys, or any wild times, either. My destiny is to be the old lady who lives alone, feeding all the stray cats in the neighborhood.

The Frozen Star by Jessie Lane Blog Tour and Interview

We are really excited to share with you the second book in Jessie Lane's YA/NA Paranormal Romance series, THE FROZEN STAR! Available now! And we're ecstatic to have one of the authors in this writing duo join us today! if you haven't started this incredible series yet the first book, THE BURNING STAR, is available for just 99Cents for a limited time only! 


Hi everyone! It’s Melissa from the Jessie Lane duo, and today I’ve stopped by Book Boyfriend Reviews today for a chat. HI there Dee! Thanks for having me.
Hi Melissa!! Thanks for stopping by, we are huge fans!! Shall we get started? Prepare yourself...

 Where did the idea for the star series come from? It all started from a dream Crystal had one night which later produced the first book, The Burning Star. The Frozen Star is the product of me taking over her vision and expanding on it.

What inspired it? A lot of daydreaming and research on my part was the inspiration behind my expansion on the The Frozen Star, on top of the world Crystal had already established in The Burning Star.

Are any of the names of characters names of people you know in real life? Unfortunately, no. All of the characters names are their own, as well as their personalities.

If you could tell us one thing to look out for in the frozen star what would it be? Expect the unexpected with a few of the characters. Not everything is as it seems, so be prepared for it.

Any hidden surprises? Of course! You will just have to read it to find out.

Will this be the end to the story or will there be spinoffs or another book? There is going to be one last book in the series titled The Divine Star, and there are some hints at who that is in The Frozen Star.

Will Kay discover more lies and secrets? Definitely more secrets

What does Kira have to look forward to? Having what she has always dreamed of. A family. Freedom. People that genuinely care for her. But now she has to fight in order to save one of them.

Do our characters get their happily ever after?? They’re getting there, but the journey to happiness is a bumpy one.

 Who are your idols and mentors? I love Maya Angelou and Anne Rice. Their writings inspired me to want to pursue writing.

If you get inspiration in the middle of the night or some random place, what do you do? I always have my phone on me so I can jot my notes down. I love my dictation app!

Where do you do your best work on this series? I work nights, so that’s normally the best time for me express my ideas on paper.

Do you have any weird writing rituals? I’m a coffee drinker, so I always have to brew a fresh pot before I start writing. That or I make some tea.  

Have you ever fan girled over anyone? Cassandra Clare. I got my hubs to take me to one of her signings and he patiently sat with me through her little Q & A and got to watch me nerd out with a bunch a kids.

Do you have any works you have started and haven't finished? I have three that are almost complete now. Unfortunately, life happens so I had to put them aside. My plan is to have the two that are the closest to their happily ever afters out by the fall.

What's the best advice anyone ever gave you? Don’t let anyone ever tell you that you can’t do something, and never let them stop you from pursuing your dreams.


Before I go I’d like to say a big THANK YOU to Dee for letting me stop by and chat today. I hope you all will check out Jessie Lane’s latest release, The Frozen Star, from our YA/NA Paranormal Romance & Fantasy series! Happy Reading!
Big Squishy hugs to Melissa!! Congrats on the Frozen Star release! We love you!!





The Frozen Star
Book #2 in the Star series
by Jessie Lane
Release Day: May 29, 2014
Blurb:
The journey continues:
Kay had discovered secrets, lies, shocking truths, and even love in a strange new world hidden from humans. Everything she thought she knew was turned upside down when she found out three things:

- She wasn’t human.
- She has a power she can't control.
- And there was a possibility that she had found a way to cure the cancer that was rapidly killing her with that very same power.

Then, just when she was on the precipice of gaining everything she wanted and saving her own life, tragedy struck. Will she be able to fight her way back to Ryan and save herself in the process?

Kira had lived a terrifying and confusing life of servitude and abuse under Lord Donovan and his son, Cole. It was an existence that had stripped away her emotions, and eventually, her reason to keep fighting. Just when she thought freedom was within reach, Lord Donovan struck again, ruining her plans and almost killing her in the process. When she awoke from her injuries, it was to stunning revelations that would change her life forever. Changes that she was not entirely sure she wanted to embrace.

Persistent individuals such as Prince Kane refuse to let her walk away, though. Will she embrace all of the sudden fortune in her life? Or will she walk away from those who need her most, forsaking their acceptance and love?
(will be made available when the book is published)
