Thanks for adding Twice Tempted to you...Hi McEckK,<br /><br />Thanks for adding Twice Tempted to your TBR pile. May it never topple over!<br /><br />What can I say: Zoe is next to the oldest in family of six brothers and sisters. <br /><br />Personally, I like a big cast of characters and my reading tastes reflect that:Sabrina Jeffries, Alexander Hawkins, Beverley Kendall, Rachel Gibson, Lara Adrian etc. Chalk it up to my background in teaching. I used to having tons of people around me. ;D<br /><br />BTW, I haven't brought *all* of them forward. ;)And even those who were in TT, with very small speaking parts, won't necessarily have a book of their own. <br /><br />In fact I think people might be surprised that Third Time's a Charm *isn't* about one of Zoe's siblings. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Marquita Valentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01433121436276975379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019385387215453872.post-40509080055972846962012-08-08T15:21:52.563-04:002012-08-08T15:21:52.563-04:00In Russian culture, Sasha is a diminutive of Alexa...In Russian culture, Sasha is a diminutive of Alexander. :) And I chose it because it was such a different name for a contemporary hero. :)Marquita Valentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01433121436276975379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019385387215453872.post-62041159379564384652012-08-08T14:37:30.796-04:002012-08-08T14:37:30.796-04:00Great interview Sallie.

I'd rather talk about hot heroes like Christian and Sasha, but....hee!<br /><br />Okay so the trunk story: Then boyfriend/now husband and I were TEENAGERS at the time. Keep that in your head: silly, stupid teenagers. <br /><br />Anyway, I was cleaning out the trunk of my car and had to get in to to get something that had slid to the very back of it. Hot Builder kept teasing me about closing the trunk (it was fall, so the weather was chilly) and I was playing right along, daring him to do it. <br /><br />So he did. Only the keys were my pocket and there was NO other way to unlock the trunk. The spare key wouldn't and there wasn't a button to press either. HB had to call 911. EMS, Firetrucks and Sheriffs all descended upon my house. <br /><br />Luckily, they were able to get me out without using the jaws of life my car. ;)Marquita Valentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01433121436276975379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019385387215453872.post-921140590606583802012-08-08T11:26:05.919-04:002012-08-08T11:26:05.919-04:00LOL!

Sasha is... *breathlessly fanning self*... very, very hot, and Rose is adorable. <br /><br />Now I want to know the story behind Hot Builder locking Marquita into the trunk of the car.
