michelle_leighton: I think the essence of him is in most of my characters, but nothing direct

patti_shaughnessy: :-)
yesi_cavazos: YES!!!!!!
michelle_leighton: When I first posted pics of Charlie, I wondered what y'all would think was going on
loverkaren: I wanted Nash alive as soon as I found out he was dead. Poor kid, but he comes home angry!
yesi_cavazos: LOL!
michelle_leighton: There will be a happy ending, but he has some things to work out first. He's bitter
loverkaren: I loved being inside Cash's head, his thoughts are so honest and forthright
yesi_cavazos: Marissa turning nice???? WHY??? Sitll don't like her...LOL!
michelle_leighton: Hopefully, you'll like her more once you get to see more of her
loverkaren: Oh every Bitch has ONE chance she better not spoil it
yesi_cavazos: Cuddles meaning he gets hot and heavy with a certain formerly annoying girl?
yesi_cavazos: LOL!
yesi_cavazos: haha!
yesi_cavazos: I did wonder why Cash didn't explain who Marissa was to Nash?
michelle_leighton: That's something that will happen in the next book. Nash had one thing on his mind
michelle_leighton: They'll talk more about who knew what and did what.
yesi_cavazos: Great! Cash is still going to stay his hot and awesome self though right? No going to the
michelle_leighton: I didn't want to ruin the mood and momentum by giving them a heart to heart. I
don't
yesi_cavazos: please...
lovermichelle: Okay, so there is a lot of confusion (still) whether Cash is good or bad.
michelle_leighton: head
lovermichelle: So if Cash wasn't on the phone with Gavin, who was he talking to?
lovermichelle: :)
loverkaren: We got a whole two books in his head, how could anyone think Cash is Bad, we heard
michelle_leighton: Who do you think it was? In one version, I divulged that, but then I removed it.
lovermichelle: I know, and I read both and now I don't even know! I'm so confused!
michelle_leighton: ;)
michelle_leighton: The next book will give resolution to that whole Bratva situation, as well as iron out
som
michelle_leighton: details with Cash and Nash. There will be a lot of Nash in it, though. The real Nash
yesi_cavazos: Yep!
michelle_leighton: He's got some issues. But he's still way hot and dangerous. You'll see with him what
michelle_leighton: With good reason! They've had a lot of people betray them
michelle_leighton: Oh, definitely. One person will bring it out. Very unexpectedly
lovermichelle: Will the third book be filled with even more steam, shots, bathroom scenes, etc.?
michelle_leighton: I doubt shots, but I already wrote one scene that is HAWT! I knew it had to be done
yesi_cavazos: I didn't think the bathroom scene could be topped, then came the VIP room...
michelle_leighton: the instant Nash made his appearance, so I wrote it and saved it
yesi_cavazos: Oh I LOVE it too!!!! Can't wait to read what you come up with after that! LOL!
loverkaren: Yes Nash needs a bathroom scene with a auburn haired short girl
yesi_cavazos: AWESOME! :D
kschimpf: michelle ... you said that there is an essence of your hubby in your books....do you have
loverkaren: Yes
michelle_leighton: I think she stems from me, to some extent. Just wilder. LOL
lovermichelle: Okay, how many deleted scenes are sitting on your laptop?????
michelle_leighton: I am the Ginger to my sister.
kschimpf: LOL and how does your sister react to your Ginger?
michelle_leighton: I didn't delete any scenes. I put the one I took out back in at another point
michelle_leighton: My sister laughs. I'm the only person who can make her laugh.
michelle_leighton: I think Ginger says things we all might WANT to say, just don't
kschimpf: Exactly!
loverkaren: I've know a Ginger or two in my life her name was Bridget
michelle_leighton: LOL We'd have a ball over dinner and drinks! I love to listen to Gingers!
loverkaren: So Gavin killing the russian mob, will it come back to bite him
michelle_leighton: I haven't decided how that will play out, but I can tell you that Gavin can hold his own
loverkaren: I think Gavin will turn out to be the most complex off them all.
loverkaren: My opinion.
loverkaren: Anyone that has their own doctor on call, interesting guy.
yesi_cavazos: :D
michelle_leighton: LMAO What will swell if it comes into contact with PB? Cuz that couuld be good
loveramanda: Nutella*
michelle_leighton: y'all
kschimpf: lmao I may regret this comment.....But I think Gavin would be one that could breath thru
michelle_leighton: Bahahahaha
loverkaren: Michelle which male character that you have written do you love the most
michelle_leighton: Oh, yikes! I love them all in a different way, but the most recent ones are always on
michelle_leighton: my mind more, so right now I'd say Cash or Nash. Maybe Nash. He's under my skin
michelle_leighton: He has such a rough edge, but he's so incredibly sexual and so incredibly fragile. But
he
loveramanda: MESSAGE!
loveramanda: hehehehe
michelle_leighton: Yes, he is steamy in a totally different way. I can't wait to see what y'all think!
hoang_betular: Michelle, what was the question you wanted to ask us?
lovermichelle: dana: No worries, we'll post the transcript so you can go back and read it.
lovermichelle: Will take some time to edit but we'll post the link when it's ready.
loveramanda: lol
kschimpf: panty ripping is good...but what are you gonna do for the other 18 hours in the day?
loverkaren: Being
dana: yay! okay, thanks for letting me know lovermichelle! =] and omg.. lol.
hoang_betular: someone who speaks from his heart... and from time to time, from the other head.
dana: I think honesty is mine. Hot looks is a plus. But you wouldn’t be someone your not attracted
kschimpf: A guy that walks between you and traffic just to protect you...
michelle_leighton: LOL I love them all! Especially the careening car protector. LOL
michelle_leighton: Nooooooooooooo I don't think I could ever write a guy like that
kschimpf: someone who you can see cuddling a puppy but beating the crap out of a guy who
disrespected
kschimpf: d you
michelle_leighton: YEAH!!!!!!1
michelle_leighton: I think I see all my leading men as both tender and strong
michelle_leighton: I'm not sure. I think I put some of me in every character, whether it's my likes or my
michelle_leighton: right:) hehe I could never be mean like that. Maybe in my head, but I could never
michelle_leighton: do it
michelle_leighton: I think all my leading men are in one way or another my hero
loverkaren: Does anyone else think that Olivia's Mom is Cruella Deville.
kschimpf: I do loverkaren
michelle_leighton: I'm so glad you could see how cold she is without her being in the story more.
loveramanda: I was trying to figure out how or why Liv's dad married her.
michelle_leighton: She wasn't nearly as bad when she was younger. There will be some sort of reverse
michelle_leighton: parallels drawn between her and Marissa as the story progresses.
loverkaren: You would think after daughter taken, would have changed the woman.
loveramanda: Hmmm...makes me wonder if Liv's dad had a little bad in him at one time.
kschimpf: I think Marissa had a difficult childhood...not sure if Parents paid attention to her
loverkaren: Is Liv's dad being a pushover ,why she looks for powerful bad boys?
michelle_leighton: You'll see that she was expected to act a certain way. She's trapped in a glass house.
michelle_leighton: Liv has had to be the strong one and she needs someone to take care of her.
loverkaren: Marissa's parents about money and status. Reap what they sowed.
loverkaren: It shows in the Liv wants to go back to farm and still take care of Dad.
michelle_leighton: If I do my job well, you'll not only like her, but you'll understand why she was the way
kschimpf: ooo can you see a "Nobody puts Baby in the corner" moment between those two
yesi_cavazos: **sighing** :)
michelle_leighton: I will certainly try. I can already see how broken she is. I hated her in the beginning,
michelle_leighton: but now I see her differently. And I hope you will, too;)
michelle_leighton: I wonder if other writers live all sorts of lives through their characters.
lovermichelle: So did you sell the rights of this series to the same one that bought The Wild Ones?
michelle_leighton: I feel like I get to fix what's broken about me, fall in love over and over again and
make
michelle_leighton: Yes, I sold the series to Berkley. They wanted it after I pubbed book 1, but I wanted
michelle_leighton: Well, I was wriiting Jake's story for The Wild Ones series, but they want me to stop
and
michelle_leighton: write the third Bad Boys book, so I'll start Nash tomorrow
lovermichelle: And when is the second Wild Ones book going to come out?
michelle_leighton: Well, I'm not sure at this point. I'll know more once the new deadlines come in
