This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we're asked, "How do wit and comedy enhance love stories? Does it make them more relatable?"
Ooh. I don't have a good answer to this. I love humor, comedy, wit, and enjoy adding them to my books whenever I can. I think it's very Irish of me (Mom's side). Black humor is a classic defense technique and the Irish excel at it.
But, yes, comedy certainly makes love stories more relatable to me. I'm honestly not sure if the majority of readers understand how many times my characters are whistling as they pass a graveyard when they crack jokes. Those that "get it" get it. Those who don't...well, hopefully they still get a laugh out of the humor.
Now, hop on over to Jill Haymaker's page to find out where she'd like to travel. And don't forget to check out her book, Montana Pines Spring Forward.

No Way, Rosé
By Kate Davies
Could this be a second chance worth savoring?
Rosa
Don’t get me wrong - I’m thrilled that Nonna left her winery to my sisters and me, but I’m terrified, too. With Allegra and Bianca both out of the country, the responsibility falls totally on me - and what if I’m not up to the challenge? Now my ex, Jake Wright, is offering to help out, but that’s terrifying in a different way. Working side by side is bringing all those old feelings back to the surface, and I’m falling for him all over again. But does our partnership have a future, or is heartbreak on the horizon?
Jake
I’ve been away from our hometown for ten long years. Now I’m back, and working with Rosa is both the best and worst thing that’s ever happened to me. We’re saving her family winery one day at a time - and giving in to the heat between us one night at a time, too. But I’m afraid this pairing has an expiration date…
Meet the Martinelli sisters: Rosa, Bianca and Allegra. These partners in wine have just inherited a once-storied winery in the heart of Napa Valley. They’re living the dream, right?
Not so fast! Because, as it turns out, not everybody is happy for them. And that includes their Uncle Geno who’d assumed the property would come to him.
There are hoops to jump through, barrels to get over, and a mountain of regulations they'll have to scale. But the sisters are crushing it—and we don’t just mean the grapes. They’re making wine, falling in love, and working together to restore their inheritance to its former glory, one pour decision at a time.
