Nina Lane: I'm HOPING HOPING HOPING for August

LoverMichelle: Ria, I freakin' love the look of your blog. So relaxing and colorful. one of my
faves.

Patti: michelle 10 min before mentioning a shower scene. i am impressed

Nina Lane: Lol -- uh, did I really PROMISE it?

LoverMichelle: ;;)

Maria D: LOL Michelle

LoverMichelle: I think I may have had dreams about that!

Ria@aBookishEscape: AW thank you Lover M!! as you know I'm a huge fan of all Lovers!!
Cant wait to meet yall at book bash :)
LoverMichelle: Yeah! I'm so excited. :)

Vilma: Me too!

Nina Lane: Hi ctwin & miss! Glad you liked it

Ria@aBookishEscape: Gigi Laroux <- Welcome and you have an AWESOME name. I'm Jelly.

Nina Lane: Hi Gigi -- love the name!

Gigi Laroux: Thank you, it is my naughty alias....

Nina Lane: very apropos

Ria@aBookishEscape: HEY HEY!! Me Likey!!

Vilma: Nina, what inspired you to write the story of Liv and Dean? How did the idea develop?

Nina Lane: Vilma, it started as a short erotic story about a woman who was trying to get
pregnant

LoverKaren: Hi newcomers this is a totally open forum. So jump on in and ask Nina a question.
Don't be shy, we aren't.

Nina Lane: then Liv just walked right into my head and wouldn't shut up

Gigi Laroux: I am so glad you decided to make it longer than a short story. I can't get enough of
it...

Nina Lane: And I knew focusing on a married couple was "different" so I took a chance

Vilma: LOL! I just love that it started in a different place in their lives... married... with a whole
different set of issues to work through... such a fresh perspective!

Vilma: yup! absolutely!

Nina Lane: Thanks, Gigi! Liv and Dean really came to life for me right away

Maria D: So glad you did Nina bc its such an amazing story

Ria@aBookishEscape: Agreed!!

Gigi Laroux: I love knowing where they are now but some of my fave scenes are the flashbacks
to the beginning of the relationship.

Nina Lane: Thank you all so much! Gigi, I LOVED writing those flashback scenes!!
Maria D: OMG...their first time!! :-X

Ria@aBookishEscape: So Nina do you think Liv and Archer will ever become close?

Nina Lane: Loved focusing on how they met

Vilma: I pictured that PERFECTLY... when they first met.

Nina Lane: Ria -- quite possibly

Sherri Cook joined the chat 2 hours ago

Ctwins: Ok, finally caught up! Phew... I love that it revolves around a married couple and it
makes us married women feel normal...somewhat...if only we were Marie to Dean! 😉

Ria@aBookishEscape: YAY!!

Nina Lane: Hi Sherri!

Ctwins: Married

Ria@aBookishEscape: OH wait i'm getting ahead of myself

Ctwins: Married

Ria@aBookishEscape: sorry *fingers crossed*

Nina Lane: Ctwins -- that is so awesome. I love that women see Dean as ideal hubby material,
because I sure do.

Nina Lane: Dorky professor thing and all

Vilma: but he's no perfect, which makes him all the more real.

Gigi Laroux: he sounds fantastic!

Vilma: I'll tell ya... the dorky professor thing worked for me... I'm married to one! I could relate!

Lena: Whew. Just read that deleted scene...

Ria@aBookishEscape: What happened to Archer seriously broke my heart sure everyones

made mistakes but jeez that must have been so hard!

Ctwins: There is just something about professors... ;;)

Nina Lane: LOL, Vilma

LoverMichelle: yes, perfect!

Gigi Laroux: I know, poor Archer, I felt sorry for him

Maria D: one of the things i loved was that it was so real

Lena: I love that they're dorky! I'm dorky! I especially loved the pictures they drew for each
other... so cute.

Gigi Laroux: loved the deleted scene

Peeps2 joined the chat 2 hours ago

Maria D: loved the pictures too, so cute

LoverMichelle: Okay, Nina, did you draw those pictures????

Nina Lane: Lena, those came about because at one point my editor and I were thinking of ways
to lighten the story up, and I wanted to prove taht Liv and Dean still love each other deeply and
with humor

Vilma: I loved the pictures too! The humor was great!

Nina Lane: Hi Peeps

Nina Lane: I hired an artist to draw Liv's pictures

Peeps2: Hello Girls!!

Nina Lane: But embarrassingly, I drew Dean's myself

Nina Lane: And that is about the best I could do

LoverMichelle: You did? I think I already told you how I loved how Liv explained what a BFF
was to Dean!

Peeps2: LOVE THAT!

Sherri Cook: Hi Nina. First time to your books and started with The Erotic Dark =D>

LoverMichelle: Now, I need to go back and look at the pictures. So presh.

Nina Lane: But I was so glad I could do that for him. :-)

Crystal: I loved everything about the two characters...your books are just fab!
Nina Lane: Thanks so much, Sherri and Crystal!

LoverMichelle: Hi Sherri and everyone else. Welcome. Open forum.

Nina Lane: Sherri, glad you were an ED fan first!!

Peeps2: Will we see more of Archer in the third book

Gigi Laroux: I loved the Erotic Dark, I was waiting for the Erotic light to come out and found
Arouse instead. Loved it

Sherri Cook: Thanks for the welcome. Almost missed it by 5 minutes!

Gigi Laroux: still waiting though..... :)

Nina Lane: I'm really happy you liked Arouse after ERotic Dark

Nina Lane: I had considered publishing Arouse under a different name because it's so different

Ria@aBookishEscape: PEEPS!! I'm a HUGE Archer defender!! yay! #notalone

Sherri Cook: Love, love, love ED...very interested in the depth of the story and characters.

Peeps2: :)

Nina Lane: Peeps -- not likely in book 3

Crystal joined the chat 2 hours ago

Gigi Laroux: Actually I was so glad Arouse was different from all the BDSM stuff out there
right now. What a refreshing change...

Nina Lane: But Archer is "on the list" for his own book one day

Ria@aBookishEscape: So Nina what are 3 things you like to do for fun?

Peeps2: :) I had a lot of people tell me they loved Archer! Cool!! yay

Ria@aBookishEscape: WHAT!!!!!

Ria@aBookishEscape: YAY!!!!!!

Nina Lane: <high five>

Ria@aBookishEscape: OMG!! #FANGIRLFREAKOUT

Crystal: I want to know more about Archer too!

Nina Lane: I hang out with my kids, do yoga, and read -- all fun!

Gigi Laroux: It would be great if Archer could get his life together and find LOVE!

Patti: i would love an archer story -- loved him

Nina Lane: I think he deserves it too -- he has issues. But then, I thought he had to with Dean as
his older brother

Patti: and ps i read that deleted scene. damn nina......damn

LoverMichelle: haha Patti!

Nina Lane: I wish I'd been able to fit that into the book -- was very sorry to cut it

LoverMichelle: I literally loved how much Liv grew in the second book, but I must say that last
chapter had me in tears..absolute tears.

Peeps2: Who was yelling toward the end of Allure, someone get to Jennifer!! She'd help Dean
out with Crazy McGee!!

Ctwins: Who do you picture as Dean and Liv? I'm a visual reader and always interested in who
the author pictures.

Nina Lane: Michelle, I rewrote that chapter countless times

Maria D: Michelle, me too

Peeps2: agreed Michelle on the tears :(

LoverMichelle: Were you crying when you wrote it?

Patti: agree michelle...so agree

Nina Lane: I might've been a little teary -- but the really tough scene was the miscarriage

Gigi Laroux: That was so sad!

Peeps2: My husband saw me reading and crying and told me to get a grip :)

Nina Lane: Ctwins -- Vilma picked Gemma Arterton, who is so perfect.

Ctwins: the miscarriage was horrible!

Patti: Nina - that was so heart wrenching. I had to put the book down for a bit after that. i felt so
sad for them

Nina Lane: And Maria, didn't you pick Rachel Bilson?

Maria D: Nina, I died for Livand Dean with that! Yes, Rachel Bilson

Peeps2: Dean=Henry Cavill right??

LoverMichelle: I think I had anticipated the miscarriage that it didn't affect me as much as the
last chapter. Sigh.

Nina Lane: The miscarriage was definitely rough -- in the early draft of the book, Liv didn't
have a miscarriage because I didn't want to put her through it

Vilma: here's my liv: http://vilmasbookblog.files.wordpress.co...

Patti: Didn't we pick Pedro Stoltz for Dean?

Nina Lane: Peeps -- yes!!

LoverMichelle: Aw, now that makes me sad.

Ctwins: I would love for them to have a baby in the third book...hint hint...

Maria D: Yes Patti we did

LoverMichelle: Yes, Pedro.

Nina Lane: But I also knew Liv and Dean weren't ready to be parents by that point

LoverMichelle: I want a long shower scene in the third book!

Peeps2: yep! they

Nina Lane: Oh, I forgot about Pedro!

Gigi Laroux: Agreed, parenthood would totally change their relationship

Patti: Nina I am happy with your choice. As tough as it was it seemed 'right' - but they need
more time to grow together before a baby

LoverMichelle: You are so right Nina.

Ria@aBookishEscape: I understand that Nina!

Nina Lane: I really think the miscarriage is their big turning point

Vilma: Absolutely. I agree, although it totally broke my heart too.

Maria D: I agree Nina,

Peeps2: Yeah, I agreed with it too. They need more time. but they gained from it

Gigi Laroux: Archer was so sweet to her during all that

Patti: I need this to be a movie/hbo show. how do we make this happen? i want more more more
liv and dean

Nina Lane: Michelle -- extended shower scene. Noted. :-)

Maria D: but it was so sad

Ctwins joined the chat 117 minutes ago

Patti: we are holding you to it Nina ;-)

Peeps2: I know 5 books, right???

Nina Lane: What I liked about the Archer situation is that he redeems himself to Liv, but by
doing that, he hurts Dean

LoverMichelle: Will Archer appear in book 3?

Peeps2: Liv and Archer have a lot of similarities

Nina Lane: I don't think so, Michelle, but don't quote me

Peeps2: they are the underdogs

Nina Lane: Peeps -- exactly!!

Nina Lane: More alike than they even realize

Peeps2: hence why dean is always likes the underdogs

LoverMichelle: Can you give us a hint as to how long Liv and Dean will be apart?

Peeps2: too long!

Peeps2: one hour is too long :)

Maria D: i feel for Archer...and i gotta say, his family left a lot to be desired. Loved how Liv
responded to them

Ctwins: Holy hot Pedro! Had to check out to check him out! Dean totally...

Nina Lane: About 2 weeks right now

Nina Lane: And they MISS EACH OTHER BADLY

Peeps2: so it

Gigi Laroux: skype just doesn't cut it!

Peeps2: s only 2 weeks

LoverMichelle: Okay, two weeks I can live with, which means lots of phone sex, right?

Nina Lane: Dean's family isn't in book 3 -- he's done with them for now.

Ctwins: Good. I love them together, but time apart definitely works well.

Peeps2: yeah, two weeks i can live with

Peeps2: i was freaking thinking it would be months

Maria D: Good, I dont blame him :)

Nina Lane: The time apart really helps both of them, in a good way

Gigi Laroux: 2 weeks is not so bad, I thought it would be longer

Nina Lane: Peeps -- Dean might leave again, but they can't be apart for too long, plus he has to
come back and deal with the sexual harassment charge

Peeps2: poor dean doesn't want to be away from her :(

Ctwins: I love how you write their time apart because they learn so much about themselves
during those periods.

Lena: How long is the investigation? Dean has to stay away from the university all semester,
right? That's gotta be horrible for him....

Patti: AGAIN???? NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

Nina Lane: Ctwins, Liv learns a LOT about herself when she is apart from Dean
Nina Lane: Lena, it is a couple of months -- and yes, he has to stay away from the university,
but not necessarily Mirror Lake

Ctwins: forgot about the harassment charge...grrrrrrr

Peeps2: boo

Peeps2: Crazy McGee. can't stand her

Nina Lane: lol

Lena: got it! I don't want him and Liv apart for one day, much less weeks at a time!!

Gigi Laroux: she is bad news

LoverMichelle: I forgot about it too! Grrrr

Maria D: ughh, can't wait for his name to be cleared!!

Peeps2: big time. Knew it when she entered the scene

Peeps2: the grad student will help him!

Nina Lane: I don't think Maggie is so much evil as she is controlled and scared of her father

Gigi Laroux: but I hate girls who use sex as a weapon

Peeps2: make excuses for her ;) haha. she's spoiled

Gigi Laroux: his whole career and rep are at stake

Nina Lane: lol -- can't help it. I did write the girl. :-D

Peeps2: hehe

Gigi Laroux: every story needs a villain I guess...

Maria D: I think she's more afraid of being cut off

Nina Lane: Gigi -- that's a good point and not an easy thing to do

Nina Lane: Too many villians come across as cartoonish or stereotypical

Gigi Laroux: well she nailed it! :)

Maria D: you wrote her well Nina, you knew she was going to do something desperate
Nina Lane: thanks!

LoverMichelle: Do you find it difficult coming up with different words or phrases to describe
the sex scenes in the book or even different scenarios? Gosh, i always sound like a sex addict,
but I'm really not. It's just Dean is so beautiful, sweet, and perfect.

Nina Lane: So do you want a snippet??

Patti: i feel like she isn't a villain/spoiled brat but exactly like Maria said desperate. She is so in
need of her father's approval that she is willing to do anything to get what she thinks she needs

Peeps2: YES!!!

Nina Lane: Michelle -- so funny!!

Gigi Laroux: yes please!

LoverMichelle: Waiting.....

Lena: YES!

Crystal: Yes

Nina Lane: Patti, exactly!

Ctwins: Pretty please!

Patti: yay! i got something righ

Patti: t

Nina Lane: And Michelle, sometimes yes -- I use a word checker for repetition so I'm not
constantly using words like "slide" or "caress"

Ctwins: attempting to put kids to bed at the same time is tricky...but still following.

Nina Lane: My copyeditor said once, "Nina, Dean is thrusting way too much." :-D

Peeps2: hahah

Lena: hahahaha

Gigi Laroux: not possible! :)

Patti: Nina, I will tell you right now, Dean can't thrust enough!
Maria D: LOL, Michelle...Hahah Nina, can he really thrust too much ;p

Nina Lane: Ctwins, I can relate

Nina Lane: lol

Crystal: Lol...love it!

LoverMichelle: I like the word length myself.

Maria D: Great minds, Patti :)

Patti: I like the good old fashion C word - nice and dirty

Patti: hell yea Maria!

Patti: hell yea Maria!

LoverMichelle: I may have to go back to my highlighted sections again!

Nina Lane: I like that one too, Patti :-)

Nina Lane: Okay, hold on....

Patti: hee hee!!

Gigi Laroux: Love Kindle, you can just search and don't have to bend down any pages... haha

The Awaken Teaser was removed, look for it to be revealed to the public later this summer.

Patti: oh i feel a surprise comin'

Gigi Laroux: Awwwwwww

Nina Lane: Hi Yesi!

Maria D: Yesi!! :)

LoverMichelle: So he fantasized about them, so I assume we may get to read that in the book?

Yesi: Hi!!!! I had to pop in and at least say hello! :)

Patti: hey yesi

LoverMichelle: Read the snippet above!

LoverMichelle: Then prepare to pass out!

Ctwins: Well da,

Yesi: Going to it now! :D

Nina Lane: Michelle, that's what keeps him going

Ctwins: well damn...can't even type

Gigi Laroux: 2 weeks is WAY too long!

LoverMichelle: I can't even think straight. I never though Kellan Kyle would be knocked out of
#1 Book Boyfriend. Never, but he has.

Nina Lane: It's long for them, definitely! Especially after all they've been through, and that they
were separated for 3 weeks before Christmas

Peeps2: he has! sorry Kellan

Patti: Dean is man. Kind of hard to beat that

LoverKaren: We all know DEAN is the TOTAL PACKAGE

LoverMichelle: Yes and legal and doesn't make me a cougar!

Nina Lane: SO happy you love him

Peeps2: OMG!!

Alicia: Nina all I'm going to say is that I need a baby for them

LoverMichelle: Oh, Nina, we have no doubt it is hot. We trust you 100%!

LoverMichelle: How 'bout Doctor?

Gigi Laroux: I loved when she said she didn't care what most men would do but what did YOU
do professor?

Patti: hahahahah they should SO play doctor!

Nina Lane: Alicia, I think most readers on on board with that exact same thought!

Gigi Laroux: Sadly, as soon as there is a baby there is no more hot sex on the living room floor

Ctwins: My mind is all over the am with "elf and fairy"...you can't leave us hanging... :-?

Nina Lane: The reader consensus is that Liv and Dean need to be parents

Peeps2: ehhh, im okay without it

Patti: "oh wilt though leave us so unsatisfied??"

Yesi: I missed so much! Damn it's hot in here!!! LOVE Dean!!!

Nina Lane: I'm not so sure about the doctor thing, but definitely other hot stuff

Nina Lane: Ctwins, hold on...

Patti: lets end the story with them finding out she is pregnant. this way we get the hot steamy fun
and a baby

Peeps2: word!

Maria D: Agree Patti

Gigi Laroux: yes

LoverMichelle: :-*

Ctwins: Who says you can't have hot steamy sex after baby?!?

LoverMichelle: Hahah!

Peeps2: so the series is done with 3 books??

Patti: I am sure you can. but let’s not waste precious book time with pregnancy, healing, etc

LoverMichelle: It's just that most people don't want to read about it is the problem.

LoverMichelle: yeah, that's six weeks out but then again, Dean can take lots of showers!

Nina Lane: oops, sorry

Nina Lane: Peeps -- Liv and Dean's story is done in book 3

Patti: hahahahahaha. Michelle you are nuts! >:D<

Yesi: Lol Michelle!

LoverKaren: Please Please NINA, I am begging write an extended shower scene for Michelle.
A Long Hot Shower.

Nina Lane: but there's a chance of more books about other characters like Archer

Nina Lane: lol Karen

Peeps2: i'll be in withdrawl :)

Ctwins: Showers are good ladies...

Maria D: LOL Michele

Peeps2: cool

Gigi Laroux: Ha Ha maybe a COLD shower!

Nina Lane: Ctwins here:

LoverMichelle: There is a time when you just have to stop writing the characters and know
when it's time. So I do understand that.

LoverKaren: As great as you write Nina you write it we will read it.

Nina Lane: This is Dean's POV

Linda: Oh a book for Archer !

Nina Lane: Thank you, Karen!

Ria@aBookishEscape: I hope it’s a BIG chance we get Archers story

Nina Lane: Her cheeks redden again. “Yes.”

MJ: Just joining in...holy cow I am so confused lol

Patti: like keebler or lord of the rings?

Nina Lane: “Like with pointy ears and a funny hat?” I can’t help grinning. “That’s what got you
so hot?”

Gigi Laroux: lol

Nina Lane: She shoves at my chest. “No, not with pointy ears and a funny hat.”

Lena: lol

Nina Lane: “Then what?”

Ctwins: That is fantastic!

Alicia: I'm loving this teaser so far. I will never look at elfs the same. Lol

Gigi Laroux: I love it!

Nina Lane: “You were like a Lord of the Rings elf. You know, with a leather vest and tight
pants and a bow and arrow.”

LoverMichelle: I was skipping around my house just so excited!

Nina Lane: Thanks so much, Linda

Peeps2: so well deserved!

LoverKaren: Still am Excited and all I did was read the book

Ctwins: Very well deserved!!!! Love your writing...

MJ: It is such a relatable story...one of my favorite couples ever.

Alicia: Congrats Nina!!!!

Patti: yes kudos >:D< =D> :-X

LoverMichelle: I loved that it was the second book (which sometimes doesn't do as well as the
first book) that hit the best seller's list! That is incredible.

Nina Lane: That was especially amazing because Allure was REALLY hard to write

glandavazo: Trying to catch up I know I'm late but I LOVE THE LITTLE EXCERPT

Maria D: Awesome!!! =D>

Nina Lane: Partly because it was a second book and I wanted to deliver something good

Ctwins: I find that I'm a book 2 girls in all of the series' I read. Hmmmm.

Nina Lane: Thanks, Gloria!

Maria D: You more than delivered!!!

LoverMichelle: BTW, if you guys didn't know, Nina has a street team. Here's the link if you
want to join. https://www.facebook.com/groups/49950853...
Alicia: I want to join. :-)

LoverMichelle: I didn't think I could love Allure more than Arouse, but I totally did! 10 stars all
the way for me.

LoverKaren: Everyone we will be having the transcript of this chat on our site. So if you miss
anything you will be able to read it.

Crystal: Best two books I have read this year!

Nina Lane: Ctwins -- it's really a challenge to make a book be a complete story and also a bridge
to the conclusion

Peeps2: true

Nina Lane: I think of Allure as "Dean's" book because he has to deal with his family and come
to terms with his past

LoverMichelle: There are still so many people who don't know about Nina's writing and we're
hoping the street team can help with that. :)

Nina Lane: And Awaken is more "Liv's" book

Maria D: Michelle, me too!

Gigi Laroux: I am so glad that you tell the story from both of their POV's

Nina Lane: Thanks, Michelle!

Peeps2: definitely. and the family really added to it too

Linda: Can't wait !

MJ: And when is due out? Sorry I'm sure you have answered that already.

Ctwins: I can only imagine. The second book is always my favorite for some reason...FSOG,
crossfire, etc... Book two always does it for me!

Alicia: How did you come up with the book names Nina?

Peeps2: august

MJ: thanks

Patti: Gigi I agree - reading both perspectives gives so much depth to the story. i can't get
enough
Nina Lane: Gigi, I LOVE writing Dean's POV. Love imagining what he's thinking, especially as
it pertains to Liv

Peeps2: me too!

Nina Lane: MJ -- hoping for August, but not official yet

Peeps2: loved that about Allure! More Dean!!

Alicia: Liv has Dean totally whipped and I love it!

LoverMichelle: How much of Awake do you have written?

Ctwins: The male POV is always a treat, is it hard to write?

MJ: Team Dean all the way :)

LoverMichelle: Awaken

Nina Lane: Alicia -- I wanted titles that were punchy and evocative. Arouse is like the
beginning, then Allure is where they find safety together

Peeps2: but stil alpha :)

glandavazo: I don't know if I miss this but is there any more baby talk in Awaken???

Nina Lane: Awaken is where they both have to open their eyes

Nina Lane: Yes, definitely more baby talk! Plus dealing with the aftermath of the miscarriage.

Nina Lane: Ctwins -- I usually have to rewrite Dean's POV to make it sound more like a guy's

Alicia: Love the titles. I love how you described What an Allure is in your book.

Nina Lane: shorter sentences, sometimes not even full sentences.

Linda: I was totally thrown by the titles. Thought the stories were going to be totally different

Lena: Oh, Nina, I love that! (the logic behind the names of each book - especially Awaken)

Gigi Laroux: It must be really hard to get inside a guy's head

MJ: How long will Dean be gone on his expedition and how much of that is covered in the
book?

Peeps2: Kelsey is going to be pissed that they've been holding out on her
Ctwins: Agreed Gigi...

Nina Lane: Dean was definitely more of a challenge than Liv

Gigi Laroux: You tell it from Dean's POV very well

Nina Lane: MJ, as of now it's 2 weeks, but I think he might have to go back and forth a few
times to fulfill his job commitment

Patti: do you write both POVs simultaneously?

Nina Lane: Patti, I write chapter by chapter and usually pretty linear

Nina Lane: So if one chapter is Liv, then I just switch to Dean in the next

Linda: Good night all. Nina ill be sure to put another excellent review on amazon for awaken,
I'm sure it's going to be great

Nina Lane: I don't write all of Liv at once, then all of Dean at once

Ctwins: Do you get writing block while building their story?

Patti: wow, that's pretty amazing. i would think it would hard to get out of one mindset and
move to the other. you rock

Nina Lane: Thank you so much, Linda -- and thanks for joining us here!

Maria D: Love the alternating POV

Nina Lane: Ctwins, no writer's block with Liv and Dean -- the challenge is getting all the
different pieces into place

Ctwins: Like a puzzle.

Nina Lane: and lots of shufflng around and rewriting!

Nina Lane: In the early drafts, Archer isn't even in Allure

MJ: Although I will be sad when Liv and Dean's story is over, what is next for you after this
series?

Ctwins: How cool. I love to hear how authors put their thoughts together and the obstacles they
encounter as well.

MJ: I'm sure this was discussed already...sorry.

Patti: alright ladies it has been a pleasure but i have to go - my bed is calling! Nina if i have said
it once I have said it 100 times before - you're the best and thank you for bringing Liv & Dean in
to our lives! Night ladies!!! >:D<

LoverMichelle: One of my favorites lines from Allure: "The fact that I was studying the perfect
harmony of the stars and the planets at the exact same time I was falling in love with you." :-X

Nina Lane: MJ, the sequel to my other book Erotic Dark

Patti: oh and thanks for ED too ;-)

Nina Lane: Thanks so much, Patti!! Have a great night.

LoverMichelle: Night night Patti! Behave.

Patti: never michelle - never!

LoverKaren: Nigh Patti

Peeps2: awwww love that Michelle

Maria D: sweet dreams Patti

Nina Lane: Then MJ, I'm thinking of other books in the Spiral of Bliss series focusing on other
characters

Gigi Laroux: Yay, I have been waiting a long time for the sequel!

Nina Lane: Michelle -- I LOVE that line!

LoverMichelle: That just made me cry harder!

Gigi Laroux: Night Patti

Nina Lane: That whole section where Dean is talking about the music of the spheres was one of
the very last things I wrote in that book

Nina Lane: It took me most of the evening

Peeps2: LOVE DEAN

Crystal: Love that section Nina

Nina Lane: I kept having to stop and make sure I was getting the details right

Nina Lane: I did some research for that!!

Ctwins: ok...my pillow wants some head and my sheets want some ass...I'm off to dreamland
and will try to dream about an elf that doesn't look like Will F. Good night ladies...it has been a
pleasure!

Peeps2: hahahaha

MJ: Lol...goodnight Ctwins.

Nina Lane: LOL, Ctwins -- thanks for joining us!

LoverMichelle: Haha. Ctwins! Come join us again for another chat..we'll leave the light on for
ya!

Gigi Laroux: Night Ctwins

Peeps2: ive never heard that one bf!!

Gigi Laroux: that was funny!

Ctwins: XO

Maria D: haha good night Ctwins..think of Orlando Bloom

glandavazo: I went through a miscarriage and it was by far the hardest thing I went through I
can't imagine Liv going through that without Dean

Nina Lane: :-(

Peeps2: I know. I was like, Dean cant leave!!

Peeps2: but they'll be okay, I just know it :)

LoverMichelle: Yes glandavazo and the fact that she didn't tell him had to have been the hardest
thing to do as well, knowing there was nothing he could do about it.

Nina Lane: That was really tough to write

Peeps2: i bet

Nina Lane: In a way it was also easy - I've had 3 miscarriages and knew exactly what Liv was
experiencing

Nina Lane: So I didn't have to wonder how she was feeling

Peeps2: :(
MJ: :(

Alicia: :-(

Gigi Laroux: :(

Crystal: That was very difficult to read...I just couldn't stop crying

Nina Lane: But then I had to sort of relive it too, which was the tough part

glandavazo: For me it was hard but I hadn't even thought how my husband felt and Dean has
been through too many to imagine

Alicia: Do u have kids now Nina?

Peeps2: Someone asked why did liv buy the little hats and put them under the bed?? was it bc
she wanted to have kids later?

Nina Lane: Alicia, two! 8 year old boy, 5 year old girl

glandavazo: I'm sorry to hear that Nina

Alicia: Praise God!!!

Nina Lane: Peeps -- she's definitely thinking about it

Nina Lane: One of my editors mentioned what you did, Gloria

LoverMichelle: Lego boy and Cookie girl. I guess we don't have to guess how you came up with
those names. :)

Peeps2: okay, someone asked my what that meant. i think that was my guess

Nina Lane: LOL

Alicia: I think a baby will help them heal.

Nina Lane: That there's not a lot of talk about how miscarriages affect men

Nina Lane: Especially men like Dean, who have this intense protective instinct

Alicia: Very true

Alicia: The miscarriage issue made him very vulnerable.

Lena: Agreed. Poor Dean, having gone through it so many times now...
glandavazo joined the chat 67 minutes ago

Lena: (and poor Liv, obviously)

Peeps2: I loved how the ex said you thought I wanted space?? You really didn't know me very
well at all

LoverKaren: Misscarriages are something a lot of people don't talk about or even deal with in
real life, great to see in honestly portrayed in book.

Nina Lane: Remember too that Dean was married to Helen when he was in his early twenties, so
now it seems like a lifetime ago

LoverMichelle: Does Helen appear much in the next book?

Peeps2: that's why Kelsey needs to know what's going on. She's a friend to both of them :)

MJ: But I loved watching Liv's growth and how she was able to send him off on his trip even
though I'm sure she would have rathered he stay with her. So selfless. Made me love her even
more.

Alicia: I hate Dean Ex wife

Maria D: My heart broke for them...as bad as i felt for her, i felt just as bad for him bc he keeps
going through it and bc of his need to protect her

Nina Lane: So his reaction to past miscarriages is totally different than Liv's

Nina Lane: Michelle, not much, no. I think both Dean and Helen have come to terms with their
pasts.

Peeps2: ditto MJ

MJ: No we don't like Helen.

Peeps2: I didn't like her at first, but then I felt okay about her toward the end

Nina Lane: Helen isn't on the list for a book of her own

Peeps2: i'm alone :)

glandavazo: i think that no matter how much time goes by there are just things you don't get
over, you live and move forward but you don't get over

Peeps2: hahah
Nina Lane: I think she's okay -- I mean, she suffered too.

Alicia: Lol.

LoverMichelle: Okay, good, because I did like Helen at the end. She redeemed herself.

MJ: Ok yeah she did.

Alicia: Good no more Helen.

Maria D: Loved how Liv grew in Allure, looking forward to her journey in Awaken. I could
take or leave Helen

Alicia: I wanted to slap Helen

Nina Lane: And she's not out to wreck Liv and Dean's marriage or anything

Alicia: What about Deans best friend at the niver

Nina Lane: Maria, Liv still has some growing to do!

Alicia: Sorry

Lena: Nina, I loved that Liv truly believed the meeting he went home for was about tenure. Her
faith in him in spite of everything else going on really touched me

Peeps2: I LOVED the scene with liv's hair pulled up tight and Dean pulling it down!!!!

Peeps2: LOVE DEAN

Alicia: What about Dean Best friend at the college getting a book

Alicia: I forget her name

Maria D: Kelsy

Nina Lane: Lena, so glad you loved that! I meant it to show that she still had his starry-eyed
belief in him

Alicia: Yes Kelsy

Nina Lane: Alicia, Kelsey will very likely have a book of her own too!

MJ: No the older woman's reaction to their shagging in the coat closet was so great...had me
chuckling big time.
Peeps2: Yay!

Alicia: Kelsey needs love too

Nina Lane: Peeps, I have to admit that I was chuckling when I wrote that hair scene

MJ: Oh and I love Kelsey.

Peeps2: it was so cute

Lena: It was very poignant... really illustrated how much she loves and respects him even if
they're trying to work through issues and don't know exactly where things stand.

Nina Lane: I could just SEE Dean pulling out Liv's hair pins and her getting all huffy but not
trying to get away

Peeps2: When you described her, you knew instantly what she was up to. Dean did too

Lena: lol, I loved the coat closet scene!!

Alicia: I thought him taking the pins out was very intimate.

Nina Lane: "What's up with the hair?"

Alicia: Yes the coat closet was hilarious

Peeps2: hahaha

Gigi Laroux: loved the coat closet

Nina Lane: The coat closet was fun to write too

Peeps2: such a guy thing to do

Nina Lane: Oh, and I think the elderly lady Florence will reappear in Awaken

Peeps2: NICE!

MJ: Yay!

Lena: wohooo!

Maria D: coat closet and the old lady's reaction were awesome

Nina Lane: Not in a huge way, but I liked her

Gigi Laroux: she was cool

Nina Lane: (Michelle -- "reply function disabled") ?!

glandavazo: i loved Florence she's awesome

Lena: Ladies, it's been lovely chatting but I need to hit the hay. Thank you Nina and Lit Lovers
for doing this, it was really fun! :)

Alicia: Will Liv visit Dean in Italy?

MJ: Goodnight Lena.

Gigi Laroux: Night Lena

Alicia: Goodnight Lena.

LoverMichelle: Thank you Lena! Don't be a stranger!

LoverKaren: Night Lena

Nina Lane: Thanks, Lena!

Nina Lane: I will email you about McGill

Lena: I won't! Thanks for having me! :) Goodnight all

Lena: Nina- I will DM you my email

Nina Lane: Thanks! Have a great night

Maria D: Good night Lena

LoverMichelle: So you are working on Awaken right now. What's next?

Nina Lane: Alicia -- Liv visiting Dean isn't in the cards right now

Lena left the chat 56 minutes ago

Crystal: This live chat has been awesome! Nina I so look forward to Awaken! I know it will be
great! Good night everyone!

Nina Lane: I once wrote a scene of them going to Paris together, but it just didn't seem to fit

Alicia: Okay. I kind of figured. Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Gigi Laroux: What do you like to read when you aren't busy writing?

Nina Lane: Thanks so much, Crystal! Have a good night

LoverKaren: Night Crystal

LoverMichelle: Night Crystal!!! :)

Gigi Laroux: Night Crystal

Nina Lane: Gigi, I just read ME BEFORE YOU by Jojo Moyes. LOST MY MIND.

Alicia: Goodnight Crystal

Nina Lane: It was amazing

Nina Lane: I'm reading Comfort Food by Kitty Thomas right now

Peeps2: It was fun chatting with you girls tonight!! Take care and talk to you later!

Maria D: How is Comfort Food? Its onmy TBR

LoverKaren: Night Peeps2

Gigi Laroux: Night Peeps2

Maria D: Night Peeps2

Nina Lane: I really liked it -- very well written

Nina Lane: Thanks, Peeps!!

Gigi Laroux: I haven't heard of it, I will check it out

Alicia: I'm going to look on goodreads for that one.

Maria D: Darker or not than Erotic Dark?

Alicia: What is Darker?

Nina Lane: I actually think Erotic Dark is darker -- Comfort Food is more "conventional"
BDSM, I think

Alicia: Ohhh. I'm following now.

MJ: I'm intrigued.

Nina Lane: But it's edgy -- about a man who kidnaps a woman and turns her into a submissive

Maria D: will have to move it up on my TBR. Did you read The Dark Duet? Curious...

LoverMichelle: A friend reads all of Kitty Thomas's books and loves them.

Alicia: Sounds HOTTTTT

Gigi Laroux: Have you read the Marriage Diaries set by Janelle Denison aka Erika Wilde. The
main guy in there is Dean also

Nina Lane: I started Captive in the Dark, but I didn't have a Kindle at the time and got tired of
trying to read it on my computer!

LoverMichelle: Maria I think you will love the too since you like Dark Duet series, and she did
too.

Nina Lane: So it's on my list to start again

Alicia: I absolutely loved the Dark Duet series.

MJ: Do you have a favorite author that's not yourself? ;)

Nina Lane: I'll read that next -- I love darker erotica, which is somewhat weird considering Liv
and Dean

Maria D: Michelle, you know me well! Loved Dark Duet and The Erotic Dark. Gonna def check
it out

Nina Lane: MJ, I really don't! Honestly, I love specific books more than authors in general

LoverMichelle: Yes, but now I'm interested in the books Gigi mentioned! :)

glandavazo: I'm hope to see more of Kelsey in awaken she one of my favorites

Gigi Laroux: about a married couple spicing up their love life, very hot

Nina Lane: Gigi, I haven't read those, but I will now!

LoverMichelle: Me too! :)

MJ: 1click here I come.

Nina Lane: Gloria -- Kelsey is definitely in Awaken again, but she's more on the sidelines

Nina Lane: Liv and Dean are more "on their own" in Awaken, especially Liv
Nina Lane: She doesn't rely on Kelsey as much as she did earlier

Alicia: Will we get an HEA

Nina Lane: YES!

Nina Lane: I am a firm believer in HEA

Alicia: yay!!!!

Maria D: YAY!!!

Gigi Laroux: whew that is good news!

MJ: Oh thank goodness!

Alicia: Nina, do you do book signings

Nina Lane: Oh, speaking of "Dark" erotica

glandavazo: :( i loved it when she kissed Dean she's so bold and honest

Nina Lane: Very early on when I started Liv and Dean's story, I thought about making them a
kinky couple

MJ: That was a great scene.

Alicia: I'm glad you believe in HEAs

MJ: Gasp!!

LoverMichelle: =D>

Nina Lane: But then I realized that just wasn't them

MJ: Very wise

LoverMichelle: Kudos to you Nina. I love that they are different but real.

Alicia: I like the way they are. The love and sex is very genuine

Gigi Laroux: When I first read the blurb for Arouse I thought it was going to be another fifty
shades type thing and it was so refreshing that it was not

MJ: I agree Gigi.

Nina Lane: And I'm okay with writing kinky stuff, but it was so obvious to me that Liv and
Dean weren't that way

Gigi Laroux: Don't get me wrong, I enjoy reading the darker stuff too

Alicia: I think their intimacy makes them HOTTTT

glandavazo: your god at the kinky couple thing though

glandavazo: good

Gigi Laroux: It is nice that they are a normal couple but so Hot!

glandavazo: agreed

Nina Lane: I definitely have ideas for other kinky couple stories

Alicia: I like when she watches him jerk off in the shower too. I like when she masturbates
because its something we can all relate too

Nina Lane: Alicia, Michelle is a BIG FAN of that shower scene!

Alicia: Me too!!!!

MJ: Me too. They are normal couple with a healthy sex life

Alicia: I loved that you wrote that.

Nina Lane: And when Liv and Dean are apart, they don't have a choice!

Alicia: Yes very normal and healthy.

Alicia: I loved it!!!!

Alicia: I like phone sex too

LoverMichelle: Alicia!!!!! My favorite scene ever!!!!!!

Nina Lane: I'm trying to decide now if Liv and Dean should do the Skype thing or not

Alicia: :-)

LoverMichelle: I actually took a screen shot of that part and sent it to my husband who was
waiting for his flight to take off.

MJ: Yup...I'm right there with ya. OH yes Skype!!!

glandavazo: well they are apart I'm sure there will be a few sexy phone calls

LoverMichelle: I told him how "HOT" it was!

Alicia: Now that would be HOTTTT Nina

MJ: And how did he react?

Alicia: And he can tell her what he wants her do for him. :-)

LoverMichelle: I asked him if he did that. He said, "No, but if it turns you on, I will." I'm sure
he lied.

Gigi Laroux: @lovermichelle, I was trying to figure out what body part you took a shot of to
send before I figured out what you meant. lol

LoverMichelle: Sorry, that shower scene gets me so excited!

Nina Lane: LOL Michelle

Alicia: Lol

LoverMichelle: I'm sorry Nina. You know I talk about it non-stop, and I cannot help it. Wow!

MJ: So don't!!!

Nina Lane: Alicia, Michelle has put in a request for an "extended shower scene" involving
Professor West

glandavazo: ok I'm gonna head out, glad i made it for awhile thanks Nina and lovers

Alicia: Ohhhhh that visual will be crazy.

Maria D: lol Michelle!! I read it to my hubby ;)

Alicia: I love it

Nina Lane: Thanks for joining us here, Gloria! Have a good night

LoverMichelle: Thank you glandavazo!

LoverMichelle: Whew, Gloria is much easier. :)

Gigi Laroux: sweet dreams

Maria D: Good night

MJ: Have a good night.

Maria D: good night

Alicia: Night, night

Alicia: I feel like the Walton's saying goodnight. Lol

MJ: I like that idea of an extended shower scene. Oh my...

Gigi Laroux: lol

glandavazo: night all this was my first chat i had fun!!!!

LoverKaren: Ladies, since you love Nina's writing would you love to read more from her??

Gigi Laroux: of course!

Maria D: yes

MJ: Absolutely!

Alicia: Please post an extended showers scene for your blog tour or a teaser.

LoverKaren: Well I know something you might not, she has more books

Nina Lane: Lol -- okay, Alicia, I will start thinking about that

Eny joined the chat 38 minutes ago

Nina Lane: MJ, my Nina Rowan website is completely broken

Gigi Laroux: That book was HOT!

Alicia: Whats the link the Nina's fb group again?

LoverKaren: I loved these books.

MJ: Well that's no fun.

Nina Lane: Thanks so much, Karen!

Nina Lane: But Karen posted the Amazon links

LoverMichelle: https://www.facebook.com/groups/49950853...

Nina Lane: Hopefully the website will be up again soon

MJ: yes she did and thank you Karen...I just wrote them down.

LoverMichelle: ^^^^ That's it there Alicia. It's the street team for Nina Lane.

Nina Lane: Gigi, when did you read that?

Nina Lane: I can't even remember when it came off sale

LoverKaren: Michelle is just too quick for me

Alicia joined the chat 35 minutes ago

Alicia: Thank u. I kicked myself out clicking on links. Lol

Gigi Laroux: After Erotic Dark. Maybe just over a year ago
LoverKaren: Hi again Alicia, Chatzy will kick everyone out at least once doesn't discriminate

Alicia: Lol. Good to know.

Nina Lane: I wrote Tea and Spices ages ago - so glad you liked it!

Gigi Laroux: loved it

LoverMichelle: Is that historical?

Alicia joined the chat 33 minutes ago

Gigi Laroux: historical but very sexy!

Alicia: What is Erotic Dark?

Nina Lane: Michelle, it was set in colonial India -- romance between a British woman and
Indian man

Alicia: Is that a book by Nina too?

LoverKaren: So are her Rowan books very very very sexy.

LoverMichelle: I just don't know if I can wrap my head around historical. I know, I'm a snob!

Nina Lane: Alicia, Erotic Dark is a book I published about a year ago

LoverKaren: Yes Alicia

Gigi Laroux: yes, super hot and sexy Erotic Dark

LoverKaren: As Nina Lane

Nina Lane: Before Arouse and Allure

Alicia: I need to go look for it then.

Gigi Laroux: It doesn’t read like a history book or anything, great characters and super sexy

LoverKaren: http://www.amazon.com/Hundred-Lanterns-E...

Maria D: Can’t wait for The Erotic Light!!

Gigi Laroux: me neither

Nina Lane: Gigi, you might like a book called THE CAPTIVATION -- I wrote it under the
name Natasha Rostova

Alicia: What is erotic light?

Gigi Laroux: I will check it out

Nina Lane: It's still available online, I think

Alicia: Nina you have

Maria D: sequel to The Erotic Dark

LoverKaren: http://www.amazon.com/Shaping-Erotic-Sho...

Nina Lane: About a woman who gets taken prisoner by a very sexy Cossack captain during the
Russian Revolution

Alicia: A lot of pen names

Alicia: Lol

Nina Lane: Alicia, I know, it's ridiculous

Nina Lane: I'm down to two now, though

Alicia: Lol

Nina Lane: Nina Lane for the sexier contemporaries

Nina Lane: Nina Rowan for historical romances

Nina Lane: That's it!

Nina Lane: And Nina really is my name, so I need to stick with it.

Alicia: So your friends don't know you write then?

Nina Lane: Depends on the friend. :-)

MJ: Lol ;)

LoverMichelle: haha!

Alicia: Lol
Maria D: lol

Nina Lane: I have young kids, so I don't advertise my Nina Lane books to my neighbors or
anything

Nina Lane: They all know about Nina Rowan though

Gigi Laroux: sometimes a naughty alias is a very good thing to have :)

Ria@aBookishEscape: HUGS and KISSES I'm off to lay down my little Nina it was great
chatting with you and ALL the other lovely ladies in the room.

Maria D: i'm sure they read them

Nina Lane: And the sex in the Nina Rowan books have shocked some of my fellow moms!

LoverKaren: Betcha your neighbors are reading Nina Lane

Alicia: Well please let me know if you ever come to NYC for a book signing.

Maria D: has anyone ever commented about your books to you, not knowing you wrote them?

Nina Lane: Thanks so much for joining us, Ria, and thanks again for all your support!

Alicia: Lol. Exactly Lover Karen

Gigi Laroux: i am sure if someone got a hold of my kindle they might think I was a sex addict
or something!

Ria@aBookishEscape: <3 <3 YOU!!! <3 <3

Alicia: Hi Ria!!!!

MJ: You know they are reading it pretending to be shocked. Yeah right..lol

Gigi Laroux: good night Ria

Nina Lane: lol -- I was actually interviewed as Nina Lane in the local paper

Nina Lane: And they named our town

LoverMichelle: Night night Ria!

Alicia: Lol.
Nina Lane: So one of my neighbors put 2 and 2 together and asked me, "Were you just
interviewed in the paper?"

Maria D: night Ria

Nina Lane: So I had to fess up

Maria D: what did you say?

Alicia: Makes me think about the book the Help .

Nina Lane: Something like, "Uh, yes, but that's the pen name I don't advertise too much."

MJ: And had they read your books?

Nina Lane: No -- she's a lesbian. :-D

Nina Lane: Part of a two-mom family

Alicia: Lol

Maria D: lol

Nina Lane: She just shrugged off the news, despite me being worried about her reaction

LoverMichelle: haha!

Gigi Laroux: :)

MJ: lmao!

Nina Lane: Another friend told me now I have "lesbian cred" so I shouldn't worry what other
people think

LoverMichelle: http://host.madison.com/news/local/fifty...

LoverMichelle: Is this the article? I really hate that term "mommy porn."

Maria D: me too,Michelle

Nina Lane: that's it!

MJ: Same here. It's so demeaning somehow.

Nina Lane: That was just when Erotic Dark was taking off
Nina Lane: I hadn't even started Liv and Dean's story yet

LoverMichelle: See, I think it's done wonders for our marriage and our sex life. Shhhh!

MJ: Oh believe me I thank EL James everyday but that term has got to go.

Nina Lane: Yours and others, Michelle -- no doubt!

LoverMichelle: Do you ever do local book signings?

Gigi Laroux: I love on the Kindle no one needs to know what you are reading

Nina Lane: Not yet! I haven't even done any Nina Rowan signings

Nina Lane: Gigi, totally agree

Nina Lane: I was reading Comfort Food at my son's karate lesson the other day!

Nina Lane: no one was the wiser

Gigi Laroux: It's all good unless you get too hot and bothered! :)

MJ: That is great. My Kindle is the best present I have ever gotten.

Nina Lane: lol

MJ: And squirm in your seat? lol

Alicia: Yes, because if they people knew the kind of stuff I read. Lol

LoverMichelle: Exactly Gigi!

Maria D: unless they are your nosy dentist and then oh well, thats what you get for reding over
my shoulder

Gigi Laroux: yes, squirming, haha

Nina Lane: LOL Maria

Nina Lane: Then did he say, "Open wide" :-D

Maria D: :D

Gigi Laroux: lol

Maria D: LOL, Nina!!!

Alicia: My husband asked me one time what I was reading about. I was like deep throating. Lol

MJ: Hahaha!

LoverMichelle: So Nina you expect Awaken to be done by August/September. What is next

after that?

Gigi Laroux: husbands should appreciate all the knowledge we are gaining!

Maria D: after the shower scene, my husband asks me to read to him LOL

Alicia: Yes indeed.

MJ: Mine does.

Nina Lane: Michelle, I'm hoping it's the sequel to Erotic Dark

Nina Lane: Which is pretty much done, but needs to go through the editing process

Maria D: Yes, that would be great Dean and Gabriel

Gigi Laroux: I will have to read ED again

Alicia: Lol. So you read him a bed time story. Lol

Maria D: i do Alicia :)

Nina Lane: Then another Spiral of Bliss story, I think

Nina Lane: Oh, question for you --

Nina Lane: So I have a sexy historical romance set during the Dutch tulip craze in the 17th
century

Nina Lane: Romance between a ship captain and a headstrong woman

Alicia: Lol

Nina Lane: Does that sound at all interesting as a reader?

Nina Lane: It's legit, Alicia!

Alicia: Yes,

LoverKaren: HMMM I like it

Gigi Laroux: I am sure you could make it interesting.

Nina Lane: I'm trying to decide if I should keep my Nina Lane books contemporary

Gigi Laroux: Is the captain hot?

Alicia: I love historical romances

Gigi Laroux: does he look like a pirate?

MJ: I would definitely give it a go.

Alicia: Does the captain look like Johnny Depp

Gigi Laroux: I also like historical romances

Nina Lane: Or if I should put some historicals in too

MJ: lol both of you

Gigi Laroux: just put in lots of sex

LoverMichelle: I can't vote on this. :(

Nina Lane: The captian is Bram Vanderveer, and he's tall, dark, and hot

Alicia: Hot sex

Gigi Laroux: excellent

Nina Lane: not Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow

LoverKaren: Okay Nina I want to read it

MJ: I'm sold

Alicia: Me too.

LoverKaren: PLEASE

Gigi Laroux: I would read it

MJ: Put in a shower scene of some sort and Michelle will read it too ;)

Alicia: You should know that I'm a one click whore. So send it my way
LoverMichelle: Haha, MJ, damn girl, you're like my BFF now!

LoverMichelle: :)

LoverKaren: We need a scene with water and masturbation for Michelle

Nina Lane: Okay, I will give it a go -- I have it written (though it needs a rewrite) but it's been
sitting on my computer for a few years now

Nina Lane: LOL MJ

LoverKaren: That did not sound good. Whoops

Gigi Laroux: did they even have showers then?

Alicia: They need to have sex on the deck of the ship

LoverKaren: Will edit that !!!

Nina Lane: Well, Amsterdam does have all those canals

LoverKaren: Waterfall

LoverMichelle: Maybe no showers, but they definitely had penises. Is that the correct plural
form?

Gigi Laroux: lol

Nina Lane: LOL

Nina Lane: Yes, I assure you they did ;-D

Maria D: LOL Michelle

MJ: I am literally roflmao right now

LoverKaren: Fountain

Alicia: Lol. They can skinny dip in the canal.

Gigi Laroux: they had showers or penises?

Nina Lane: The plural is not "penii"

Alicia: Lol
LoverMichelle: :D

LoverMichelle: So do you have any new books coming out under the Nina Rowan name?

Nina Lane: Did you notice I never use the word "penis" in my books?

Nina Lane: Not a word I particularly enjoy.

Gigi Laroux: yes, very classy of you :)

MJ: It's just such a silly sounding word.

Nina Lane: Michelle, there will be a novella out in December, then another novel out next May

Nina Lane: So nasally sounding

LoverMichelle: Wow, you have been busy, busy.

Gigi Laroux: so how do you find the time to write, your kids are still pretty young.

Alicia: I'm going to download erotic dark tonight

Gigi Laroux: it is so good!

Nina Lane: My son is in school and my daughter starts kindergarten in the fall (she's in
preschool right now), so after I get them off to school, I'm at the computer

LoverKaren: Alicia, once you start Erotic Dark, you will not want to go to sleep

Nina Lane: Then I work some after they're in bed at night

MJ: Wow, really? 1click here I come yet again.

Alicia: Wow!!!! I like that.

Gigi Laroux: I need to lock my Kindle in the closet so I can get something else done!

Maria D: You will not put it down!!

LoverMichelle: I'm curious, how did you all hear about Nina Lane's books?

MJ: Probably your blog or FB page.

Gigi Laroux: after I read 50 shades all sorts of interesting books started popping up in searches
on Amazon
LoverMichelle: So Amazon suggested it Gigi?

Gigi Laroux: I think so

LoverMichelle: What about you Alicia?

Alicia: I heard about her book from a bloggers page. She was raving about Nina's books.and I
clicked on the link

Gigi Laroux: I think it was available to borrow from amazon prime and I got it that way before I
bought a copy

LoverMichelle: Awesome. I was just curious, so I'm glad to hear you've seen it on blogs and that
Amazon recommended it. :)

Alicia: I follow bloggers very closely.
