Starting Over

Jennifer Louise

I’m someone who likes to look at the cover of the books, although they do not make or break me, as to whether or not I’ll read the book or not. I just like to give acknowledgement into the work put into them, so that the work is recognized, because thought and efforts went into it. And with this cover, I truly felt like it was a love story, and it was going to captivate me in some way or another. What else, I liked about the cover, is the over lapping artistry. I haven’t myself, seen anything like this, and this is truly beautiful. I honestly find this cover artistic and think it quite exquisite. 

As for the book itself, I instantly fell in love with Felicity. Her character is so outgoing, strong and independent. I just am so drawn to her. And what I love about her even more? She is a twin, something I have always had in my life. No, I am not one, I have just always had twins around me as friends, and relatives. And this one, is just like all of the twins I have ever met and known. 

What else that is drawing me to these girls, is that they moved from New York to Florida. My story is similar, I have moved to Ohio to Florida. A northern girl to a Southern girl. 

And Felicity is wanting to make a new start for her and her sister. But the thing is, the girls end up in a shelter. Oh, what a place to end up too.

While in the shelter, this is where Felicity meets Cameron. 

Now Cameron is one of these hot cocky sexy types. But the thing is, his father thinks that he needs to grow up, settle down and make partner in his firm. This is not something Cameron had set in his sites, but he decided to cooperate, and volunteer at a local shelter.

Are you seeing this coming into play now?

Cameron and Felicity just keep running into each other, and the thing is, they have an instant attraction to each other. And there is no if’s and’s or but’s about it, it is there, and there’s no fighting it. 

And the thing is, both of these people, are unique and stubborn in their own ways, and fate is quite insistent on making a statement. 

This book is quite entertaining in more ways then one, and you will not be able to put it down, because you will want to know what is going to happen. However, this book is meant for mature audiences. But trust me, it is well worth the read. I just fell in love instantly, and just had so many reactions. This book is just so life-like! Truly enjoyable, and a definite five star read!

My questions for Jennifer:

1. What made you write this book and how long did it take you?

Before I decided to write my own books, I fell in love with reading. With that passion for reading anything romance, I found some pretty amazing authors, one of them being M.S. Parker and her Club Privé series.  After I wrote my first book, "Starting Over", I wanted to see what other self-publishing options were out there, and that is when I stumbled across Kindle Worlds. These talented authors allow you to use their wildly popular stories as a backdrop for your own story, and that is how Club Privé: Rebuilding was born. The book only took about two months to write, once I got the story in my head. I outlined the basic story, with character names and possible plot twists, and then filled in everything else as I went along.

2. Who designed the cover?

I designed the cover. I am so glad that you like it! <3

3. Do you have any photos or descriptions of the characters that you can share with us?

The models on the book cover were my inspiration, or at least that is how I pictured them in my head. 

4. What are you working on now?

I am working on a continuation of the Club Privé: Rebuilding story, titled Club Privé: Restoring. More of Chloe's past is revealed and I also introduce Aidan's family. While I don’t want to give too much away, another figure from Chloe’s past comes back into her life and she struggles with how to cope and what implications that may have with her relationship with Aidan.

5. What motivates, you to write and do you anticipate that you were going to grow up and become a writer?

I did not grow up thinking I would be a writer. In fact, I wasn't really an avid reader until a few years ago. Raising a family, working full-time, and going to school, didn't allow any downtime for me. Now that my kids are older, I am taking that time, even though I am still working full-time and working on a degree.

My primary motivation to write coincides with my love for reading. I love the stories I read and want to convey the feeling I get into my own books. If a reader reviews my story and says, “I loved her writing style”, or “I found another book I could not put down” then I know I have done something right. That is what motivates me and keeps me going!

6. If you were to get writers block, or have ever had it, what do you do for it?

I didn’t get writers block with the first two books I wrote. But working on the third, has me second guessing the direction I wanted to go. I have been able to bounce ideas with my friends and family, but my current book is taking longer than I intended. Also, with my work/life balance, I usually only write one day a week, but that also gives me time to mentally gather my thoughts, for when I can write.

7. What suggestions can you offer for the aspiring writers out there?

Don’t give up! Even if your first, second, or tenth book doesn’t do as well as you had hoped, keep at it. At least that is what I keep telling myself each time I see the stats on my books. At the end of the day, these stories are your babies. Nurture them, write them with love, and don’t be afraid to set them free… or in this case publish them for all to read and enjoy.

8. How long have you been writing?

I have always used writing as my go to for stress relief and as a way of conveying my feelings to others, especially when talking doesn’t always get the point across. But writing and publishing my stories on Amazon, just started in March of 2017.

9. What are your hobbies?

Reading, of course!

10. Do you put yourself into your characters?

I don’t intentionally but I sometimes think about how I would respond to a situation, and then usually embellish from there.

11. Where is your favorite place to write?

I have a desk set up in my bedroom, so that I can close myself off and concentrate. It may not be my favorite place, but it is effective.

Outbreak by Sherry Robinson

Outbreak

By Sherry Robinson

When I first met Sherry, it was because she was advertising in the facebook book groups, about her book: “Sins of the cloth.” I read the blurb, and ask her if she would be interested in an honest read, review, and interview. And she was, and from that point, we became friends, and now we even work together.

As I was editing her newest release “Outbreak” I instantaneously fell in love right from the start. This book is everything everyone has always thought to be true, and is always afraid to mention.  And in the long run, you will see why, people are afraid to come forward with their own, ‘conspiracy theories’ because low and behold if they do, you know how the Government gets.

Sherry Robinson, brings in the perfect Mother character, Kate Carmichael, who has twin daughters. One ends up sick, but not the other, least wise not at first. Kate lives close enough to the Hospital to walk to and fro, and ends up seeing the reality this flu, or whatever it may be, is having on the people around town. Kate is a curious person who wants answers. Not just because she has a daughter who needs medical care, but because she thinks this is all too odd. Especially when the doctors have no real answers, and she even over hears what they are saying. 

Kate decides to do some of her own investigations on her laptop, once she gets home. She finds a few clues, and puts them together, and then searches out a reporter, and shares her own insights with him.

In the meantime, her other daughter starts showing signs of the illness too, and her initial daughter is not getting any better. Kate is scared to death that her daughters are at risk of death. But this doesn’t stop her from wanting the things she has found, publicized. 

Once she gives the information to the reporter, he too does his own research. He just can’t print something without first doing his own research. Said reporter believes there is a story here, and does check out everything. And eventually he does find out that not only is there something, but it was being hidden, and covered up quite well. 

After all of his P’s and Q’s are in order, the reporter decides to air his story. His Editor, questions his intentions, making certain that this is what he wants to do, assuring him that this will have some certain recourse. Without a doubt, he assures his Editor to release the story.

Once the story is released, the Feds start following the Reporter, questioning him, and even trying to get information out of him. They want the story retracted. The reporter refuses, stating he will not retract what he has found, because he knows it to be true. The feds get angrier, and start lashing out.

This is where I will leave you. I don’t wish to blow the entire story out of the water, although I have not given you every detail, trust me. I have left out quite a lot. 

I do want you to know that this is an intense read, and you will not be able to put this book down, not for one minute. Because if you set the book down, you will worry about these characters. You will wonder if while the book is sat down, will these characters be ok. This book is just that intense!

This book, “Outbreak” by Sherry Robinson is a big time five star read. You will enjoy it every step of the way! It is a very thrilling and entertaining read! It is very fast paced, and something that will make you think twice about things like the ‘bird flu’, and the ‘common cold’. I mean how many times have you been inoculated for the flu, and then managed to get the flu, and it was a flu that was not part of the inoculation that you received? So how are you safe? This book will definitely make you think about the true ‘conspiracy theories!’ Grab your copy today, before the next “Outbreak!”

Interview Questions for Sherry:

1. What made you decide to write "Outbreak" and how long did it take you? Outbreak is a story that came to me one day. I didn't have any intention of writing this, but the more I wrote the more interesting the story became.



2. Did you do any research for this book? No I didn't do any research for this book. It is all fiction.




3. Do you suspect the government as concocting the bird flu and other miscellaneous diseases yourself? (Be honest now!) I do kind of suspect that the government is instrumental in a lot of things that is being released into the population.



4. What do you think when you get the flu or a cold now yourself? When I get a cold or flu I hope it is just that, but who knows.

5. How long have you yourself been writing? I have been writing since high school, but I didn't become published until September 2014.



6. What made you choose me (Deneale) as your Editor and did I satisfy your needs as an Editor and would you refer me to others? (Again be honest!) I chose you Deneale as my editor, because I respected your honesty with my previous book. I was satisfied with the way you read my book "Outbreak" in a timely manner and returned it back to me. I didn't have to keep calling, or inboxing you to see if you had finished reading it or not. You kept me informed every step of the way, and I appreciate that.....



7. What all education have you had? I have a high school diploma, and I have a medical assistant degree. Then I went to college for a year and a half and studied Psychology. 

8. What are your future book plans? I am currently writing a book called "The Lies That Bind Us", and I am also working on a book called "GPS".



9. Who designed the cover &/or where did you get the picture from? I get my pictures from over seas, but I tell them what I want and then they design it according to my specifications.



10. Please provide for us your links to your social media & books so that we can follow you: https://www.facebook.com/sherryrobinsonmeettheauthor/?ref=hl

11. Anything extra to add? I just hope everybody get a chance to read this book, because this is the type a book that would make someone question the way certain sickness, viruses, and different illness come about every year, and how do they come up with the names of these diseases.
