I have a secret about these books.
They weren’t originally Valentine’s themed.
When I proposed the idea to my editor
for His Shock Valentine’s Proposal and Craving Her Ex-Army Doc, I sent her the
synopsis for both books thinking I would write one book in April 2015 and the
next in July 2015 about two brothers.
I had set the books in the summer time
in my synopsis and I figured the books would be released on different dates.
When my editor got back to me she was
excited about the idea, but wondered if I could make them both Valentine’s
themed, write them both together and then they would release them together and
make them a miniseries.
I have to say, my heart skipped a
beat. Could I do it? I’d never written two books close together like that
before. I usually take a couple of weeks to recharge the muse.
I said yes. I jumped at the chance.
Why not? It would be a challenge. It
would be fun.
His Shock Valentine’s Proposal is
still set in summer and ends on Valentine’s Day. In Craving Her Ex-Army Doc, it’s
set in the winter and you get to see even more of the first couple’s story in
the end of this book.
I loved writing about these brothers
in a small Montana town up in the mountains.
I loved the Valentine’s theme I got to
write. It was hard work to get the stories done, but if my editor asked me to
do something like this again I would in a heartbeat! I hope you enjoy the
Ralston brothers and their love stories.

Amy, if you are reading this I want to let you know that both of your books were completely awesome but I liked you craving her Ex-Army Doc a tad bit more.
ReplyDeleteJust keep on writing :D
Thank you, Hina! xoxo
DeleteWow to writing 2 stories at the same time, I'm not sure I could... Congratulations, I wish you much success :-) ♡
ReplyDeleteThank you, Launna. It was challenging and I needed quite a break to recoup my brain power after that. LOL
DeleteCongratulations, Amy!
ReplyDeleteThank you, William. :)
DeleteLove the idea of connected stories -- it's alway fun to see characters you've liked appear in other books.
ReplyDeleteI agree, Deniz. I love series books. If I love the characters I always want more.
DeleteI also like series books because we can continue in the life of our favorite characters, learn a little more about them. These sound like exciting books, Amy. I like a winter setting in Montana. So much can happen there. All the luck with your new releases. I need to add these to my list of readings. Thanks for sharing this with your readers, Nas and Amy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Victoria!
DeleteValentine themed books are fun.
ReplyDeleteThey are indeed. :)
DeleteWow! I am duly impressed. I write about as fast as a sleep-deprived snail, so the idea of writing TWO books that quickly makes my head spin. Good for you for being up to the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI was slow in the beginning of my career. Last year I wrote 5 books. I went from 1-2 to 5 and even I was a bit shell shocked, Susan. So if I can do it, anyone can. :)
DeleteThat's an amazing challenge to meet. They also look like great reads.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Medeia! :)
DeleteIt's nice to see characters continue their stories in a series. This sounds like a good Valentines Day read.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sherry!
DeleteWhat a perceptive editor! Glad you accepted the challenge Amy. I'm impressed that you could write them back to back!
ReplyDeleteMy editor is amazing! She always challenges me in my writing.
DeleteThank you, Medeia! :)
ReplyDeleteEditors are meant to push us, eh? Glad you went with it. Their instincts are so spot on.
