Little Hellion: love tames a wild heart

by B.L. in Events, Latest Novels, Worth a look 0 comments
LITTLE HELLION: love tames a wild heart is the second in my Unfinished Business of Love series. Here’s a bit of backstory. This was the first novel I ever presented to a writing group. I had gone to a writing seminar at the same site where one of the facilitators made fun of my desire to become a romance writer. He and his writer friends look down their noses at me saying that I didn’t deserve to join their writing group because my choice of genres was foolish and unworthy of a real discussion. He continued to make belittling comments. I finally left the seminar felling belittled and humiliated. I even demanded a refund and explained in a terse letter why. The administrator of the writing program had a difficult time with my situation, refusing to refund my money for serval weeks while he checked out my complaint. I finally received a refund. Of course I was very wary about joining another writing group at the same location. The leaders of my new writing group were two older women. What a difference gender makes! They were actually nice, formulating their critiques of my work in useful ways and I learned […]

Horsewoman

HORSEWOMAN: is love more than a one trick pony? This is the first novella in my Unfinished Business of Love series and I wanted to give you a little of the backstory of the book. Whew! I’ve just finished working with my editor and cover artist on five novellas and one full-grown novel of a series called Unfinished Business of Love. I’m releasing all of them for the holidays; one 11/26/15 and the novellas for December 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and the 5th. Finishing all of them in time for December release was rough. I don’t know that I’d do it again but I did finish them! I usually don’t write novellas but I wanted to look at the unfinished business of bad relationships, so I wanted to write something short and sweet. I chose the novella as my format. This novella is the first book in my series that examines how women handle romantic relationships that end badly. Do the ex-lovers still think about each other? Would they want a do-over? What would they do differently if given the opportunity for a fresh start? Each of my novellas examines what women do when given another chance to make things […]

Unfinished Business – a romantic tale about old loves and new ones is the book that started it all for me.

I wrote this book in 2006 to challenge myself. I wanted to see if I could tell a decent suspense tale with a romantic bent. I needed inspiration to keep writing so I named one of the main characters after one of my favorite play aunts from childhood. As happens sometimes in life my play aunt grew older and developed dementia. In her later years, her children admitted her to an assisted living center for seniors. The last time I visited my mother, we went to see my play aunt. She looked older but she was still so beautiful it nearly took my breath away. Unfortunately her mind wasn’t a match for her body and she didn’t remember who I was. At the time we visited, my play aunt was concerned that her husband wasn’t in the room with her and she was running all over the place searching for him. My mother didn’t have the heart to tell her what the nursing staff had told my play aunt a million times that her husband lived elsewhere in another assisted living center. Her husband of nearly sixty years needed a wheelchair to help him get around. While his body had […]

IN HONOR OF THE WOMEN’S USA SOCCER TEAM: BOOKS, BALLS & DOGS IS A LOVE STORY ABOUT A SOCCER COACH AND A LIBRARIAN. PRE-ORDER now; Release date on 8/10/15.

 In Books, Balls, and Dogs, an Ohio love story, Taylor Price, head librarian, is a brand new arrival in town. Lost, Taylor meets Jamie Underwood, the flag person from a road repair crew who guides her to the town’s only veterinarian. Later on, Jamie turns out to be her daughter’s soccer coach. The two women have several run-ins on the soccer field; on the roadway in front of Taylor’s home; at the library, and in Taylor’s basement; her kitchen, and her driveway. Bumping heads creates friction between the two women, but it leads to an undeniable attraction as well. Neither woman realizes the dog Jamie found giving birth to seven puppies in her garage weeks ago is the same dog Taylor’s daughter has been scouring their neighborhood to find. The budding relationship between the two women takes an unexpectedly negative turn when the facts surface and the dog’s true ownership is revealed.

B.L. Wilson  about her book: I was raised in a family of women but I went on to have just one child a son. I wanted to write a story about a family of all women. I wanted talk about what it might like for a mother to have only girls and how each daughter might reflect a part of her mother good or bad. I wondered what that might feel like to see your reflection in each one of your daughters. That’s when I decided to give one of my main characters five daughters; each woman has her own unique personality. Everybody thinks Mama has always been straight because she married a nice man and made four babies with him. She knows that’s not quite true. I added some spice and sass to the story by reuniting the mother of five with the other main character, a much hated ex-roommate and one time lover for a 10-week undergraduate field course. Sinkholes, love always finds a way Part Two continues where Part One left off. Isabella and Alexis try to keep their distance from each other as agreed, but circumstances continue to push them together. Although Isabella still feels betrayed […]
