lifetime resident of Celebration Township, and lives on coffee fumes
and loves stories at her downtown store, Beans and Books. As each one
of her friends has found love, she’s been excited but secretly
envious. As much as she wants to find a man, she knows that the odds
are stacked against her, not with the medical issue she has kept
hidden from everyone.
Aaron Findley was born
in Celebration but left when he was a boy. A few months back, he
returned after his mother passed away, and even the race cars he
drives couldn’t get him out of town fast enough. His sister,
Alesandra might enjoy the little po-dunk town, but he prefers bright
lights and beautiful women hanging off of his arms after he finishes
a race.
Six weeks before
Thanksgiving, Aaron crashes his racecar and lands in the hospital in
serious condition. When he is discharged three weeks later, he finds
that he has fewer friends than he originally thought, and a career
that went up in flames like his car. His only choice is to convalesce
at his sister’s house in Celebration. Grumpy and bored, Aaron finds
himself hiding at the small coffee shop for hours as he comes to
terms with his new life.
Velevet
& Vows
The
Celebration Series Book 13 (Finale- Christmas)
The epic finale of the
Celebration Series is finally here. Celebrate Christmas once again
with the couple that started it all: Casey Lowe and Thad Wagner.
Velvet & Vows
starts out twenty days before the wedding and there is a lot to be
done. With wedding showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties, the
final dress fittings, holiday preparations and the last of the
details for the ceremony and reception, Celebration is crackling with
energy–but it’s not all good.
With a few
misunderstandings, many secrets and a serial arsonist running rampant
in the town, the days leading up to the wedding are far more
stressful than Casey and Thad ever planned for it to be. It will take
the entire town to tell this story as we pass from one leading
character to another.
Prepare yourself for
this one-of-a-kind novel that will bring insight into every character
you’ve fallen in love with during the series, and even a few
characters you’ve never heard from firsthand.
NOTE: While
Velvet & Vows can be a standalone novel, there have been twelve
other books in this series before it. This book incorporates all
twelve of those couples into one story and might be slightly hard to
follow if you have not read the other books.

GUEST POST
What are you passionate about these days?
My family. My friends. Writing stories
that others enjoy. I’m also an advocate of Domestic Violence
awareness as I’m a survivor, and I love to meet new people!
Do you have a favorite movie?
My favorite all time movie is Patch
Adams. It was instrumental in me becoming a police officer in the
last 90’s. It was after I watched that movie that I wanted to have
a passion for something that I did. I wanted to make a difference in
people’s lives, and shortly after I saw that movie, I joined the
police academy. That movie has stayed forefront in mind for many
years.
Do you have any “side stories”
about the characters in the Celebration series?
Actually, I do. A few of the characters
have minor parts in two other series. The Pleasure your Fantasies
series has a cameo of Sophia Thayer from Raffles to Rattles. And the
Heart of the family series has several cameos from other characters
in The Celebration Series, especially the last book, Carnations and
Hot Toddy Kisses. That book actually takes place back in Celebration
Township where this entire series is located.
How did you come up with the concept
and characters for the series?
Several years ago, I wrote Tangled in
Tinsel for a Christmas boxset. After I wrote that, several of my
readers told me that it would made a great series. At first, I was
like, no, but then I started thinking about it and decided to make it
a holiday celebration series. Each book, and there are 13, would
revolve around a US holiday. We started with Christmas, then moved on
to New Years, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter,
Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Father’s Day, Fourth of July, Labor
Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving and then the following Christmas. One
year in the life of this small town.
What is your favorite part of this
series and why?
My favorite part of the series was the
final book, Velvet and Vows. It had been one year in the life of this
town, and this final book was a unique creation. During this book,
you get to see and hear from all twelve couples, plus several
children, that were the main stars of the books. The book centers
around the first couple’s wedding and an arsonist that is running
around the town. It was an incredible undertaking to make sure each
character had a chapter and they all flowed into the next. It came
out wonderful and is one of my favorite books!
Convince us why you feel your book
is a must read.
Set in a small town, it’s more than
just romance. It’s about family values, friends and overcoming
odds. It’s about new starts and finding yourself while celebrating
life. So many of my readers have told me that they wish they could
live in Celebration Township and hated to see the series finish.
Do the characters all come to you at
the same time or do some of them come to you as you write?
Normally, I figure out my main
characters pretty fast. In this series, I needed to come up with
twelve characters and a host of minor characters. I had a very
in-dept spreadsheet that tracked them all. From names to
characteristics to special traits. It was pretty incredible to see it
at the end and how many people I had created for this series.
What is your writing process? For
instance, do you do an outline first? Do you do the chapters first?
The only series that I have ever
outlined is the Twisted Love Series, and that is only because I am
co-writing it with another author. We outline a couple chapters at a
time and then proceed so we stay on track.
I’m a true punster. I have an idea
for a book, sit down to start it and begin to flesh out the
character. By the fifth or sixth chapter the characters have pretty
much taken over the story and I am only the outlet for their words
and actions.
There are many times that I will even
write the final scene of the book. This helps me to go from point A
to point B.
Have you written any other books
that are not published?
I have several that I am currently
working on:
Carnations and Hot Toddy Kisses is part
of my Heart of the Family series. The fourth and final book for that
series is coming out soon.
I’m am also still working on the
Twisted Love Series with co-author Amy Manemann. The fifth book, Love
Carved is slated to come out hopefully in December. There are nine
books total in this series
The Pleasure Your Fantasies Series has
a new book, Secret Fantasies that releases very soon, and will have
at least four more books in the series.
The final book of the My Blood Runs
Blue Series, Blue Bloods Final Destiny will release in 2020.
Plus, I have a brand new series that I
will be working on intently called Rise Again Warrior series which
will focus on military personnel coming back to civilian life and all
that they have to do to try and deal with normal life after all they
have seen and done.
