Hello all, and thanks to Delilah for letting me blog here today!
So sometimes when an author writes a story they have a playlist of music they listen to. It can vary depending on what they’re writing (genre, heat level, etc.)
I tend to go back and forth. Sometimes a list demands to be made for a book, sometimes not. Sometimes I listen to rain meditation music because I can zone out and just type. Tonight I’ve turned off everything because we’re having a windstorm and I love the sound of the wind whistling through the tree branches.
My most recent book out is a Command and Control, a novella from Samhain. It’s the second book in my Holding out for a Hero series. The series follows three brothers in a small town, all who’ve chosen heroic careers to go into, and they’re journey in finding love.
My hero in Command and Control is Trevor. He’s my army guy. He’s a war veteran, and he has some serious baggage. This book didn’t really have a playlist, it had a song. Hammerhead by The Offspring. I kind of stumbled on it and really loved it. It worked for my hero. It was his song. It showed his frustration. His anger. His struggles. (Disclaimer: The end of the song gets kind of weird and there’s debate on whether this song is about a soldier, or more of school shooters type of thing. I went for soldier. I tend to just skip that little last bit of the song.)
Anyway, that’s a little peek at Trevor and this book. Leave a comment and I’ll have Delilah draw a winner to receive an ebook off my backlist!

I’ve been reading quite a few military/cop/hero stories over the past few months. I’ll have to add your series to my reading list.

I admit I’m super picky about military guys in books. Being raised in the military setting, living it myself and now back to being a dependent I have pretty strong feelings honed from years of living this life.
I’ll check it out though. I like to give them a chance.

I love reading books about military men and women. I love JoAnn Ross, Marliss Melton and Lindsay McKenna . This sounds like it will be a very good series to read.

As an ex Army brat and the wife of a soldier I love books with military heroes. This one sounds expecially interesting with the comment about serious baggage 😀
