Featured Book: Tragedy and Trust by Mary Manners
ONE WRONG TURN AT A FORK IN THE ROAD…
When Chloe Rylin flees New York City and her dream of becoming a Broadway performer, she returns to her hometown harboring a life-altering secret and the shame of a shattered past. Best friend Kelsie asks her to help build a house through the local Shelter the Homeless program, where Chloe meets Zack Coleman and his mischievous St. Bernard, Sammy.

But what will Zack think when he discovers the shame of Chloe’s past? Will he reject her, or can their fledgling love heal hurting hearts and blossom into a happily-ever-after, together?

What inspires you to write?
I have been writing my entire life. My earliest memories are of scribbling stories before I even knew how to print words. I would 'read' them to my family. I write because I just cannot imagine life without it. To me, writing is breathing.
Tell us about your writing process.
I write every day. I use notebooks to outline, and a white board to jot down notes as they pop into my head. When I begin a story, I know where it's going, but am still often surprised as the characters have their way.
How do you develop your characters?
Yes, I have a good idea of how my characters will develop when I begin a story, but often I am surprised. The characters speak tp me, and sometimes they just have to have their way!
Who are your favorite authors?
My favorite authors include Nora Roberts, Stephen King, Jeanette Oke, Karen Kingsbury, Fern Michaels, and Nicholas Sparks.
What genres do you write?: Sweet Contemporary Romance
What formats are your books in?: eBook, Print
