My parents had a very strange marriage. They weren’t the most romantic couple, but my mom loved reading romances. I think it was her way of filling the missing romance in her life. She loved reading Harlequin presents and the other tamer romances. Once she was done with them, she’d let me read them. She knew I loved reading and I guess since I went through books like they were chocolate bars, she figured I’d read through them in no time. With each romance, I fell in love with the idea of a couple having a happy life at the end of each book. I was a very icy teen. Not very emotional outwards, but when I read a book? I would smile, laugh, cry and lived in the fantasy of the story. I felt the same way when I made up stories and wrote them down. At first, they were kid stories, but as I grew up they resembled some of those romances I read with the Alpha man and the corageous heroine. I turned into an absolute romance-a-holic. I love all things romance and one of them is romantic comedies. So I try to make my books romantic, funny and interesting. Romances have been a part of my life since I can remember. They made me smile when nothing else would and they helped me realize what I want out of my writing.
Mr. Buff
Blurb:
Every morning, Alexandra drinks in the sexy vision of Mr. Buff through his office window across the street. He takes his workouts seriously, and Alexandra never misses the opportunity to see him return, sweaty and pumped, to his office suite to shower. Turns out Andrew enjoys the view just as much as she does and can’t take his eyes off the woman who makes his blood roar.
But when Alexandra bumps into Mr. Buff at a club, things go from visual to physical. And much to her delight, she learns that Mr. Buff is really Mr. Dominant. She loves spending time with him and getting to know him the way nature intended, but she’s looking for more than a fling. How’s she supposed to make Mr. Buff realize he’s Mr. Right?

My mother introduced me to romances too. I was bored and she was desperate to shut me up. I have to agree with you about humor in romance. Love it. All the best with your release.

What a great little story! My mom would have NEVER allowed me to read romance books! But then again, maybe that’s why I’m a young adult author! haha!
Thanks for sharing, Milly, and Thanks Savannah for hosting her. 🙂 Great post.

Inspiring to hear why people do what they do, especially when it involves love and family connections. Romancing the soul is what it sounds like.

I was a member of the Harlequin romance book club. 🙂 Then I discovered Rosemary Rogers and historical romance. Good times.

I had to sneak the romances into my house and didn’t really read many until in my teens. If my mom read romances, she hid them well!
