Lance McGuire:
I hate the beach. I hate vacations. I hate all of this. No way do I want to be here. But my doctor is insistent. My accident messed with more than my body.
My head's a mess. My career is over. I don't know what I'm doing anymore.
So I've got a few things on my mind and I don't need Jenny.
She's a ray of sunshine when I really, really don't want anymore people trying to cheer me up.
But there she is all the time. Popping up, watching me, smiling and bouncy. I just want to be alone right now. But she refuses to walk away and it's really ticking me off. Until she stops coming around.
There's something that keeps drawing me back to her. Something more complicated. Why can't I stay away when she disappears?
Jenny Pierce:
I write bigger than life alpha males. My paranormal series is just starting to take off but I'm fighting my first bout of doubt and writer's block. Which is why my friend insisted I take this vacation. A retreat to find myself and my character's voice.
What I actually found was Lance. A grumpy, growly, oh-so delicious man that is begging to be immortalized. My inner muse is all over him. My whole body tingles every time he's near but no matter what I do I can't seem to break through to him.
He's perfect for Leo, my lion shifter hero. I've finally found his story but now something else is breaking my concentration. There's something hiding out there in the dark outside my little bungalow and I don't feel safe anymore.
I need a hero of my own and I'm not sure that just writing him is going to work this time.
