Interviewing Claire, from A Road Back To Grace. This could get steamy--again!
I’m once again interviewing Claire, one of my trio of main
characters in my new women’s fiction release, A Road Back To Grace. This
is the sequel to the first book in my Keeper Series, The Shell Keeper. Both are humorous and touching stories of three
women who become unlikely friends.
Some of you may remember reading my interview with Claire
back when The Shell Keeper first came
out.
If you missed it, click HERE to read it. Claire’s been through a great
deal since that book concluded, so today, I’m sitting down again to talk with
Claire about the new book...or rather I should say we are both in meditative
cross-legged positions as Claire is wrapping up a yoga session.
RN: So Claire, you’re into yoga now?
Claire: I used to think this was a bunch of new age crap but
there’s really something to it. Even after all that’s happened, I figure it’s
still good to keep my chi and chakras and junk like that in a good place. Hey,
don’t you have to do some sort of spoiler-alert or something?
RN: Oh, you’re right, thanks. For our readers, if you
haven’t read The Shell Keeper yet,
you might want to stop here...there could be spoilers. But we won’t go into
detail about the new book, A Road Back to
Grace. Just some teasers.
Claire: Teasing I can do.
RN: Yes, I’ve definitely written you with a talent for that,
among other things.
Claire: I’m good at the other things, too.
RN: And we’re moving on... So, you went through a terrible
situation near the end of the last book and this books picks up after you’ve
moved to Grande Valley to be closer to Bob—
Claire: And Gwen. You know, I don’t do things just because
of a guy. I’m taking some time to rest and get my bearings after...you know. I
shouldn’t say, right? In case they haven’t read the first book. The situation, as you say.
RN: Exactly. So now
you’re resting and getting your bearings, trying to figure out what you want to
do with the rest of your life. Who you want to be.
Claire: Not a gardener, that’s for frickin’ sure! (Claire
laughs, then adds) or a cook. That zucchini thing was out of control. But the
wine over here in Colorado’s wine country is awesome; especially the wine from
Bob’s vineyard. He’s very good at making wine. Well, he’s very good at a lot of
things.
RN: You’re getting kind of a dreamy look there, Claire. I
think you really like this guy.
Claire: Well, you should know, but I think you plucked me
out for this interview about half way through the book so I can’t say where
this is going.
RN: Yep, that way you won’t accidentally reveal something
you shouldn’t, since your story is still going.
Claire: We I can tell you Gwen’s bakery is off the charts
successful. And her new cook, Jason. Oh my, he makes me want to cook up
something. (she winks at me). But what’s up with Del? Her love life is a hot
mess. I kinda feel sorry for Jimmy, is he out of the picture now?
RN: I can’t say...spoilers, you know, but I can tell you Del’s
story is far from done.
Claire: That girl’s getting her own book after mine? (I nod)
‘Bout time. I’m in there too, right? (I nod again). Of course, I mean, it would
be rather dull without me. (another wink).
RN: We’d better wrap this up and you’d better get back in
the book. I think the Larson sisters need your help.
Claire: Spunky little old ladies, those two. They’re kinda growing
on me.
RN: And you on them. Have a great read, Claire.
She grabs her yoga matt and is gone, off to discover her
story at last. If you want to discover it as well, check out A Road Back to Grace. The second book in
the Keeper Series, this one is
Claire’s story. Hope you have a great read as well!
