Book Description:
Garrett and Brianna Zane have the perfect marriage on the surface. They share everything from love to their wildest sexual desires with ease. So when Brianna confesses she wants a threesome with his best friend Leobardo Vasquez, it awakens feelings Garrett has long tried to forget.
But the smoldering attraction between Leo and Brianna is hard to deny and even harder to dismiss when it’s all he can think about, especially when the three are trapped together in Leo’s cabin during a snowstorm. Seducing Leo will test their relationship, reveal old secrets, and maybe tear them apart. While there may be room for Leo in bed, there may not be room for a third in their marriage
And now, my friends, onto the interview !! Enjoy !
What inspired you to write
this story?
This story wasn't
planned at all. I wrote it in the days after my finals in May were done simply
because I needed an outlet that wasn't tests. It was stress relief.
What
is the main lesson that your book is trying to teach?
Love
comes in all shapes and sizes. There are ways to make it work even at the worst
of times.
Moving on to your writing
career, how long have you been writing? Did you always dream to become an
author?
A long time. Professionally,
though, it's been about three or four years. I originally got serious about
being published after my first official NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing
Month) and I've gone from there. And no, I didn't always dream of being an
author. I wanted to be an astronaut.
I’m always curious whether
or not authors read the same types of books that they write. So tell us,
what book genres do you love to read? to write?
I read in a wide variety
when I have time. I read mainly romance, but I have a fierce love of urban
fantasy. I originally started out as writing urban fantasy as well (and
still have plans to go back to it) and much of my earlier work reflects that.
What are you reading right
now?
I'm finishing up revisions,
so not allowed to read until that's done. However, I have a copies of Jim
Butcher's Ghost Story and Cold Days to read as soon as I am done.
Have any particular
authors inspired you to write? If so, can you name one and what you like
about their style?
I always struggle with this
because I can't name one particular author. Writing wasn't a decision I made.
It was something that I grew into over time. I remember one time just sitting
down and starting a story. I will say that the first story I ever wrote was
remarkably similar to The Princess Bride.
Do you have any upcoming
projects?
Oh,
I have a ton. I'm planning six releases in 2013 so busy girl here. I'm
launching my first series in March, a set of six books (not all will be out in
2013, though) surrounding the players of a professional ice hockey team. I'm
very excited about this. I also have a traditional fantasy coming out in May.
That's going to be a lot of fun as well. That one is a standalone, but I could
be persuaded to turn that into a series... Of course, next year's Christmas
novella, and I have a few other things on my plate that haven't been announced
yet.
About the Author:
Suzan Butler has a
penchant for Dr. Pepper, ice hockey, and world domination. She lives in Texas
under a not-so-secret identity with two monsters, writing books and planning
the next step in her evil plans into the twilight hours of the night because
that’s when it’s quiet in the house.
