Romance Writers Weekly ~ Character Vacation Plans ~ #LoveChatWrite


This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we're asked, "Let’s talk about summer vacation! Would the characters in your most recent work rather take a solo trip or join a family reunion? And what might they discover in their travels?"

Hmm. That's a tough question. My most recent (finished) work is Que Será, Syrah. One character has traveled a lot, the other hasn't traveled very much at all. I think Clay would like to introduce Allegra to his mom, but the two of them have also talked about spending time at the Calistoga Hot Springs Hotel, so maybe they'd prefer some personal time? 

So, I think I'm going to go with option number one. I think they'd travel to Cabo San Lucas to visit Clay's mom, his aunt, and his younger siblings. I think Allegra might discover that she's not the only one with weird relatives. On the other hand, maybe Clay will see his family through Allegra's eyes and discover that his family isn't as weird as he remembers them. 

The book I'm working on now is Going Up the Country--the sequel to Going to the Chapel. The main characters in that one have already been traveling to join up with family, so I think they're due for a solo trip soon. Maybe Wyatt will convince Arielle to visit him in Las Vegas. 

Anyway, hop on over to Jill Haymaker's page to find out where her characters would like to go. And don't forget to check out her book, Colorado Summer Stars.

POUR DECISIONS



Check out this new, Multi-Author Series.







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.
