BOOK
SUMMARY:
When Stella Jo Chandler gets an offer to work at the Second Chance Ranch
celebrity rehab facility right after graduating from Texas A&M, she’s
tempted to turn it down. She wants to help real people with real problems, not
spoiled celebrities going on vacation for publicity. But growing up on her
family’s ranch left her with a love of horses that draws her to the
opportunity. How bad can babysitting a bunch of strung out celebrities be?
What she didn’t count on was being roped into a tangled mess with
infamous rocker and three-time rehab drop out Van Ransom on her first day. And
she sure didn’t expect to feel the overwhelming attraction that pulls her to
the man who has more issues than she can count on both hands. Like the hotel
rooms and tour buses he’s famous for trashing, the havoc he could wreak on
Stella’s heart would be irreparable.
Caisey Quinn’s
TOP TEN WRITING MUST HAVES
I get asked about my
writing process and where I write so I wanted to share my
Top Ten MUST HAVE’s for writing sessions!
1.
My
MacBook Air (& its charger)– It’s light and travels well!
2.
My
headphones/ear buds – Because not everyone in the library/bookstore/coffee
shop wants to hear my Spotify book soundtrack apparently. (weirdos)
3.
A pen
& notebook – Yes, I write lots of things out by hand still! Call me old
fashioned! #iprefervintage
4.
My iPhone
– The notes app is my friend!
5.
Bottled
water – so I don’t dehydrate
6.
Iced
coffee – So I can stay awake
7.
My
reading glasses – For years I got migraines while typing, until I started
wearing them! #lifesaver
8.
Snacks
– Sometimes it’s chocolate, or granola and dried fruit, or a protein bar, just
something so I don’t get hunger headaches.
9.
Pepcid Complete
– Not kidding. My characters give me indigestion. Or it could be number 6…
10. Excedrin Migraine – Are you sensing a
theme with the headaches yet? Hours at the computer and looong nights make this
miracle drug very necessary. I might be slowly destroying my liver or
something, but writers gotta write! ;)
So there is my
complete (and very unglamorous) list of writing session must haves!
How did the idea for
Van & Stella’s story come to you?
My husband and I were looking at places to vacation and we
came across this ranch in Texas (The Wild Catter) and it looked so secluded and
private that I thought it’d make a great rehabilitation facility for celebrity
types. I already knew that I’d write about one, but it was the model for the
Second Chance Ranch.
How many books are
planned for the Second Chance series?
Four definitely, possibly two additional ones. Each one is a
stand alone with different characters that somehow incorporates the ranch.
How is this series
different from your previous Kylie Ryans series?
It’s a lot grittier and sexier. In Kylie’s series, her
career was as much a character as she was, but in this series there’s more
focus on addiction and darker, more personal issues.
What was the hardest
part about putting out something new and different than what your readers were
used to?
The fear that everyone would hate it! Or that they’d think I
was just jumping on the erotica bandwagon. I always knew I would write
something darker and sexier, more adult than New Adult, after Kylie’s series,
but not all of my readers were expecting that leap. Fortunately they held my
hand the whole way! I am very blessed to have such loyal and precious readers!
What’s your favorite
part about being an indie author?
Having so much control over the cover, the formatting, the
price and the release dates.
Least favorite part?
Being responsible for making decisions about the cover, the
formatting, the price and the release dates. ;)
What’s one thing that
readers might find surprising about you?
I write my books out of order! I always thought I was doing
it wrong, writing scenes this way, until I met several other writers at
retreats that did the exact same thing.
What can we look
forward to from you?
There will be a surprise release this summer that’s a part
of the Keep Me Still world, and Falling for Fate this fall, which is the next book in the Second Chance series.
Fast Five
Coffee or Tea? Sweet Tea please!
Chocolate or Vanilla? Definitely
chocolate!
Billionaires or
Cowboys? Cowboys
PC or Mac? Mac,
but that’s a recent change.
Night Owl or Early
Bird? Definitely a night owl ;) It’s the only time I can get any work done!
Thank you so much for
having me!!
