This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we're asked, "Name a book boyfriend you wish you'd created."
Can I be honest? I can't really answer this question. Writing has ruined me for reading in a lot of ways, and this is definitely one of them. One of the main reasons I write at all is because I want to create my own characters. I haven't fallen in love with anyone else's characters for a very long time.
That having been said, when I was just starting out--in the mid-to-late nineties, there were a few authors whose characters inspired me to create my own. Jennifer Crusie, Jayne Ann Krenz, Elizabeth Peters to name just a few.
Harper Forbes embarks on a journey of a lifetime as she follows her friend to Scotland, only to discover that she, too, has been mysteriously transported back in time to the 1500s. In this unfamiliar and perilous world, Harper must navigate through dangers and challenges she never could have imagined. But amidst the chaos and uncertainty, she finds not only her friend but also a love that transcends time itself. What will fate have in store for her? Join Harper on an unforgettable adventure filled with romance, danger, and the timeless power of true love.
Fall Giada Mazzi is Living her Best Life
A Games We Play/Whole Latte Love Story
Life is more than just the lies we try and tell ourselves about what we’ve done and who we are.
I guess the truth is that I never stopped loving Ben. And I never stopped imagining how different my life might have been if he were only the person I needed him to be, instead of the person that he is. Which is silly, right? I mean, truly; it’s laughable. Because if he were someone else, he wouldn’t be him. And the world is already full of people like that. What good is one more gonna do me?
Besides, if I’m honest, Ben wasn’t ever the problem. That was me. I was never the person he believed me to be. Oh, I thought I was, in the beginning. I tried hard to be, and that worked for a while. Sort of. But eventually I reached the point where I had to make a choice between living life for myself, or for everyone else.
And when it came right down to that…how could I not choose me?
