Congratulations to "Karen J.", the winner in Jennifer's giveaway. Thank you to all who participated.
Today THE RETURN OF THE REBEL releases!!! You can find it on store
shelves and online. :-)
I thought you might have fun meeting the people behind the
title. So I’ve invited Cleo and Jax to join us for a fun little interview.
Let’s see what they have to say for themselves.
Limo or pickup?
Cleo – “Oh, that’s easy, pickup. You might be able to take
the girl out of the ranch but you can’t take the ranch out of the girl.”
*smiles proudly*
Jax – “A limo. In New York City, nothing says success like a
limo and a smart suit. And who doesn’t want to be successful and show the
people who said you’d amount to nothing that you’ve surpassed even your own
dreams.”
Country or rock?
Cleo – “Country. I just love it and the yummy cowboys that
sing the songs, especially Tim McGraw and Luke Bryan.”
Jax – “Give me Rock ‘n Roll. Something to get the heart
pounding. But I guess if “some people” want to hear country, it wouldn’t be so
bad.”
TV or movies?
Cleo – “Movies. I just love romantic comedies. Who doesn’t
love THE PROPOSAL?” *wispy sigh* “So romantic.” *gives Jax a quick glance and
blushes*
Jax - *clears throat* “Umm…neither. What little spare time I
have away from the office, I spend reading the financial papers. A hedge fund
manager has to stay on top of everything.”
Sunrise or Sunset?
Cleo – “Definitely a sunset. The work day is done. It’s time
to kick back and let your hair down. And it’s so romantic.” *turns to Jax and
smiles*
Jax - *pulls at his finely pressed collar* “Sunrise. It’s
the beginning of a new day. It’s like a do-over to see how much can be
accomplished that day.”
Run or Walk?
Cleo – “I like to run in the morning. It gets the heart
pumping and makes me feel like I can conquer the world. And then there’s the
benefit of still fitting in my work clothes after splurging on a bowl of ice
cream.”
Jax - *smiles and shakes his head* “You definitely don’t
have to worry about that. For me, it depends if there’s a lot of money on the
line. If there is, I’m running to my desk. If there’s nothing pressing, I’m
taking the elevator in my Manhattan office and walking to my desk.”
Fast food or
sit-down?
Cleo – “I like a sit-down meal with candles, good food and entertaining
conversation with a really sexy guy.”
Jax – “Me too.” *Cleo turns to him with a look of surprise* “Well,
I mean, uh, except for I prefer female company.” *everyone laughs* “I wouldn’t
mind some good conversation either and I am a little hungry. How about we head
on out of here and get a bite to eat.”
*Jax gets to his feet and offers Cleo
his arm* “I’m afraid I don’t have a pickup, but we could have the limo stop at
the auto lot and we can pick out one in your favorite color.”
Well folks, it seems like we’ve lost our two interviewees.
*Cleo and Jax are smiling at each other as they slip out the door to a waiting
limo* Seems as though opposites really do attract. ;-) In the meantime, here’s
a little about their story. And then it’s your turn to answer a question and be
entered for a chance to win Jax and Cleo’s story, THE RETURN OF THE REBEL.
EXCERPT:
Her eyes
twinkled. “Are you flirting with me?”
“If you have
to ask, I must not be doing it right.”
She laughed
some more. “I’m glad not everything about you has changed. You were always a
great guy in my book.”
Her gaze
lifted up to meet his. The tender look in her eyes touched something deep
inside him—a part of him that he thought was long dead. In that moment, he felt
more alive than he had in months.
Without
thinking he reached out and caressed her cheek. “Thank you.”
She leaned
into his touch, short-circuiting the logical side of his brain. The only
coherent thought in his head was to pull her close and kiss her. And this time
he wouldn’t be kissing her rosy cheek. This time he planned to find out if
those cherry-red lips were as sweet and passionate as they were in his
daydreams.
TRAILER:
The guy from the wrong side of the
tracks…
Being
promoted should be a dream come true, only it means working closely with Cleo's
childhood crush, Jax Monroe. Jax may no longer be the rebel she remembers, but
he still gets her heart racing like no other.
Jax cares
too much about Cleo to let her get too close—but keeping his distance is
proving impossible! As Jax reveals the extent of what he's been through, will
Cleo show him that some things are too precious to put off until tomorrow?

Congrats on the new book, Jennifer! I have to admit to being a vanilla ice cream girl. I like chocolate, but vanilla is always my first choice. LOL

Marcy, thanks! Between you and me, vanilla is my favorite ice cream too. :-)
DeleteI LOVE ice cream of any flavour but I would choose vanilla over chocolate.
