18-year old Paige Rice, an exquisite beauty from East Hampton, NY, has just
celebrated her high school graduation and is expecting to spend her summer
living it up with all her socialite friends. But her parents have a different
idea – she is being hauled away-literally- to the mountains of Vermont for
the entire summer- in an RV!
Assuming she will be an outcast amongst
the other teens at the campground still does not prepare her for the treatment
she receives, which is far worse than she imagined. She also isn’t prepared
for Travis, the campground owner’s son and the “Sexiest” guy she has ever laid
eyes on. Travis is the only one who shows any interest in getting to know Paige.
The only problem is that they have to explore what lies between them in secret.
But once all the secrets are stripped away, the truth may be
crushing.

Author Interview
1. Where did the idea for Inspire come from?
I was actually camping with my family when the idea for
the story came to me. We had just hiked through the woods down to a lake,
and I was staring out at the boats when it hit me. I spent the rest of
the afternoon “daydreaming” away.
2. How did
you come up with the name of the title?
My protagonist, Paige, has a tattoo that
inspired the title “Inspire.” It’s also a key part of her character.
3. What was the hardest part
of writing Inspire? The easiest?
The hardest part of writing the book was
writing the ending. It took a couple of drafts before I was happy with
the way I was leaving off. (I’m trying not to give too much away, so I’ll
leave it at that.) The easiest part was writing the dialogue between Paige and
Travis, and the “LOVE” scenes. They were fun to write!!
4. Are you
working on any other projects?
Yes. At least two of the other characters
from this book are getting their own stories, and then there are a couple other
projects in the works.
5. Do you
have a specific writing process?
I really consider myself a mix between a
panster and a plotter. The first part of my process is visualizing the
characters and the main scenes of the book. My mind starts playing them
out like a movie, and so I write it down exactly how I see it. Then, I go
back and fill in the story around those scenes until I have a book that I would
like to jump into.Although I
outline my book ahead of time, things always change along the way as I get to
know my characters better.
6. Do you have a certain time of day where you
feel most creative?
Honestly, not really. I usually always have a notebook nearby so
that I can scribble down things as they come to me. I could be in the shower, in the car, running
through the check-out line, or making dinner and something may hit me.
7. Do you
have any favorite authors?
Yes, I have LOTS of favorite authors, but the
two that stick out the most are: S.C. Stephens and Abbi Glines. Their stories come to life for me, and I have
a thing for their leading men!
8. What tips
or advice do you have for other aspiring writers?
My
first tip would be to write what you love! Second, edit, edit and edit some
more. And third, if you’re a self-published author, let someone else do your
formatting. (Your time saved is so worth
the money!)
Author Bio
By no surprise my favorite hobbies are reading and writing. But beyond escaping
into the written fantasy world, I love experiencing new things. Surfing,
motorcycle riding, snow blading, glass blowing, parasailing, SUP boarding are
just a few that I have checked off my bucket list, but there is still so
much more to explore. Right now, being a mom is my biggest adventure
and the best by far!! In the quiet calm hours of the night though, I can usually
be found typing away creating a world of romance where drama still exists but
love (hopefully!!) always prevails.
