Three Beautiful Romance Authors:

Most romantic pick-up line you've ever heard
Elizabeth: The line from Jerry MacGuire…"You had me at hello." My husband offered, “I better get a library card because I’m checking you out.” Twenty years of marriage has made him rusty. | Rhonda: Where have you been all my life... | Dani-Lyn: Well, it’s not very romantic but my favorite pick up line is from Disney’s Tangled: “Wow, somebody get me a glass… ‘cause I found me a tall drink of water.” |
Best Place for a First Date
Elizabeth: A movie. It’s safe and you have something to talk about. (And if the date blows, you don’t have to talk at all and you have time to develop a head ache so you can go home early!) | Rhonda: Observatory on a clear, star filled evening | Dani-Lyn: Ice skating at Rockefeller Center |
Food That Represents Love to You
| Rhonda: Chocolate Pudding | Dani-Lyn: Chocolate!! |
Most Romantic Book You've Ever Read
| Rhonda: The Magnate’s Indecent Proposal by Ally Blake | Dani-Lyn: Gone With the Wind |
Most Romantic Song in History
Elizabeth: Aerosmith’s “Angel” | Rhonda: Slave to Love by Bryan Ferry | Dani-Lyn: Endless Love |
If you had to choose between a wonderful romantic relationship that would end after only a year, or a so-so relationship that would last your entire life, which one would you choose and why?
Elizabeth: One year. You know the saying, “It’s better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all.” Besides, in the end, it’s eternal. Death is but a pause. | Rhonda: I would pick the so-so lifetime relationship. You have all the time in the world to turn it into a wonderful, romantic relationship, which usually takes a lifetime to build. | Dani-Lyn: Forever is a long time to stay in a so-so relationship. I’d have to take the thrill of falling in love and staying in a wonderful romantic relationship for a year. |
Elizabeth Seckman
Elizabeth divides her time between her beach cottage and her scrupulously clean house in the hills of West Virginia. Ooops. That's fantasy Elizabeth. The real Elizabeth spends her days schlepping after her four boys (five if you count their father) and the assortment of pets they swore they'd take care of. She does live in West Virginia; the house is clean when the mother-in-law visits; and she does have serious dreams of living at the beach. Elizabeth is a Marshall University graduate with a degree in counseling. This has proven very beneficial when dealing with the make-believe friends she hangs out with all day (she calls this 'writing'). Follow her blog at: http://www.eseckman.blogspot.com
Ditched at the altar…biopsied for cancer…Mollie Hinkle is having a bona fide bitch of a summer.When life sucks so hard it takes your breath away, what's a girl to do?
Road trip! Pack a bag, grab a few friends, and leave the past and the worry in the rear view mirror. What wounds can’t be healed by a drive across the Heartland, where quarter flips at cross roads determine the route and the future?
All roads lead to Craig, the second son and bad boy of the haughty Coulter line. Craig has spent his life taking care of number one—himself. He’s not interested in a relationship and he’s definitely not looking to fall in love. But if a morsel drops in his lap, who is he to refrain?
Mollie’s not looking for love either, but truth be told, she’s not opposed to it. Heck, if fate brought her to the miniscule Montana town to find happily ever after, she won’t fight it.Perhaps it is a summer where love, not time, heals all her wounds.

This quarterback is making the greatest play of his life…
Quiet bookstore owner Morgan Reed can’t wait to lie on the beach on her much-needed tropical vacation, but getting tackled by a tall, green-eyed stranger playing touch football isn’t exactly what she had in mind. Neither is falling for said stranger, or going along with the eccentric islander who sends them off with a mock wedding. But all’s fair when it comes to vacation romance, and Morgan has plenty of time to get back to reality when she gets home.
When he slams into the beautiful Morgan on the beach and sends her to the infirmary, superstar quarterback Seth Blake insists on helping her recover—if she agrees to share his bungalow with him. Seth is nothing less than smitten, and the best part is that the beauty has no idea who he is.
But when he finds out that their little “wedding” was the real thing, Seth finds himself in a sticky situation. Especially when Morgan finds out the man she fell for isn’t at all who he made himself out to be…

Learning to deal with her own existence as a Guardian, Shay’s attraction to Mason grows. But she has her own demons to battle, and when her daughter is abducted, she’ll have to trust Mason and his team. But Mason has his own ancient battles to fight…
