She never imagined her heart could ever dance again

She never imagined her heart could ever dance again…

Former dance student Sara Hart had aspired to grace the stage on Broadway, but a reckless decision forced her to renounce that dream. Years later, while struggling with an ungratifying job and an even more unsatisfying love life, she literally stumbles upon a dangerously sexy stranger who sends her heart—and her body—into hyperdrive. His touch makes her feel alive again and sparks a desire to rebuild her dance career. But Sara is still haunted by the demons of her past. One dark lie could cost her everything.

He’d stopped believing in love …

Real estate mogul Tom Wright caters to the rich and famous. He lives the life of the perfect bachelor—partying hard and dating the most beautiful women in Manhattan. But he has one golden rule–no commitments. Ever. Then he meets sexy Sara Hart, and something about her makes him want to throw the damn rule book out the window. Every time she’s near, the blood in his veins pulses with a raging fire he can’t contain. But Tom’s shadowed history is resurfacing, unearthing ghosts he’d rather remain buried.

Will this wicked dance be their last?

1. What was your inspiration in coming up with the plot in the story?
   
   Growing up, dance was a way for me to escape. My parents worked two jobs to put food on the table, and there were times I would find myself home alone and I’d unleash my inner swan in the middle of our living room. I regret never pursing dance professionally. When writing this story, it only made sense Sara would be a contemporary dancer. It was a way for me to live my dream through her.
2. How long did it take you to write this book? What is the amount of research that went into writing it -- ie. did you need to travel somewhere or interview someone?
   
   It took me about three years to write the story and two years to polish. A lot of time went into learning about the writing process in general. I joined online writing groups and made some great critique-partners who later became close friends. Juggling a full time job while running a household with three little children also played a role in the amount of time it took to write the novel. My next novel won’t take as long. In terms of research for the story, the internet is a great resource. I didn’t need to travel or interview people, but I have visited some of the locations.
3. Any favorite quote or scene from the book?
   
   Yes. One of my favorite scenes is the first time Sara and Tom meet. Not a lot of people believe in love at first sight or soulmates, but I beg to differ. When I first met my husband, I knew in that instant he was going to be in my life forever. Sometimes, that deep connection can just be with a close friend, that one person you meet and you instantly click because it feels like you’ve known each other forever. I have one of those people in my life too. It may not happen to everyone, but those connections exist.
4. What's your daily routine when you are working on a book?
   
   When working on a book, I need to be completely immersed in the story and wrapped up tightly in a character’s skin in order to bring forth their voice. I need to brood for a few days, until the character’s voice and their story feels like my own, then I let them take over and magic is born!
5. Have you always aspired to be an author?
   
   What was the biggest challenge you had to overcome to get to where you are now? I actually talk about this on my blog. Becoming an author didn’t occur to me until five years ago. I just woke up one day and thought, “I think I will write a book.” The next step was to jump on my computer and google “How to write a novel.” The first two years were the hardest, but once I got the basics down, the story fleshed itself out.
6. What do you enjoy doing on your spare time?
   
   Do these activities shape the books or characters that your write? I read a lot of on my spare time. The key to learning to write is reading, especially across all genres. It opens your mind to endless possibilities and helps you define your personal writing style. I have three young boys, a hubby, a dog, and full time job; finding spare time is like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. But when I do...VICTORY!
7. What keeps you passionate about being an author and continuing to write books?
   
   I love this question. Entertaining others is what keeps me passionate about writing and wanting to pursue this career. I know why I love reading and I simply want to be part of that—taking readers to other worlds and making them feel and experience something outside of themselves. It’s an intoxicating feeling.
8. If there is one thing you can tell readers on why they should pick up this book, what would it be?
   
   Readers should pick up Wicked Dance because it’s a book about finding your true love and discovering that happiness is not about finding that person that feels like your universe, but finding that person that makes you realize the universe is already yours.
