DBP Author Spotlight on Susanne Marie Knight

Yep, recently Desert Breeze Publishing held a seven day interview fest featuring moi and my murder mystery romance series with Minx Tobin.

Day One asked this question: How do you describe yourself as an author?
Here's my reply!

I’m an intuitive author, which means I write from the heart. My books cover a wide spectrum in the romance genre--paranormal, contemporary, mystery, ghost, Regency, time-travel, suspense, science fiction, and fantasy. I have to say, truthfully, I adore them all! And I love to blend genres, thereby giving my novels an extra little twist. For that reason my motto is: Romance Writing with a Twist. I’ve been published since 1999 and currently have 34 novels plus many short stories under my belt. :)) Six of my novels are with Desert Breeze Publishing: the Minx Tobin murder mystery series.

Who is Minx Tobin, you ask? Minx is a fitness instructor newly relocated to Los Angeles, California. She has a knack for solving puzzles--puzzles concerning dead bodies. For fun, romance, and... unexpected corpses, follow her adventures in this murder mystery series! Book number one is THE BLOODSTAINED BISTRO.

A murder mystery romantic suspense. Someone wants Lord Embrey dead. Will the method of execution be by poison, or injection, or... potato??

But when a body is found in the library, can Marty convince her new-found love of her innocence when all evidence points in her direction?

Promo: New Science Fiction Romance: Xanadu For Aliens

What if UFO reports are true? What if extraterrestrials are not only here, but they’ve been visiting Earth for countless millennia? XANADU FOR ALIENS, my newest science fiction romance novel, explores the possibility of alien sightseers to our planet But there's no need to be concerned; these tourists are harmless. Or are they?

XANADU FOR ALIENS (Susanne Marie Knight) is available for purchase electronically at Amazon.com, direct URL: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K2EWFTS, and in print at www.susanneknight.com/orders.htm. 
PARADISE LOST--Teacher Petra Richardson receives a mysterious summer job offer. If she tutors a young boy, Traynor, all her expenses will be paid during her stay in the Galápagos Islands. Although she has misgivings, she agrees. Her new employer is the Taurus City Travel Agency, run by Traynor’s hunky Uncle Kelvin, whom she’d met and fantasized about when she was a teen. While romance simmers between Petra and Kelvin, there’s also danger. Who sabotaged their kayak? What happened to Traynor’s poomba? Why do some travel clients seem to flicker? 

Just what is going on at this sleepy outpost in the South Pacific? 

PARADISE FOUND--Kelvin Lacertus has a full plate. CEO of the Taurus City Travel Agency, he oversees alien and extraterrestrial Human tourists to Planet Terra. He’s handling the most important diplomatic conference in the galaxy. And he’s babysitting his nephew, Traynor. Kelvin arranges for a tutor, little Petra, whom he remembers from his Grand Tour of Terra years ago. She’d impressed him then. The grown-up version is even more irresistible. How can he protect his Petra when a terrorist group targets all Lacertus family members including his would-be bride?

Rae Santini plans to go on a quest to heal herself. What she doesn’t know is that she must travel back to the past to do it.

Get Ready for The Fourth Of July...

Hello again! I've got a new treat in store for everyone... a new (almost new due to a limited 2006  release) short story (about 12,000 words). Very soon, in May, "SHADES OF OLD GLORY" will make its appearance on Amazon.com's Kindle Books. Price: Only $2.99!

How can modern day Rebecca Sedgwick help a Civil War ghost?

After winning a contest she doesn’t remember entering, newly graduated Rebecca Sedgwick arrives at a Virginia plantation bed and breakfast ready to relax before starting her job search. She finds her older hosts very congenial but Jake, the handsome handyman, is antagonistic. That night, on the eve of the Fourth of July celebration, she has a vivid dream of a Civil War battle. As one corporal lays dying, he asks for her help. But how can she possibly help a ghost?

Jake Mantree is a hired hand on the very plantation his ancestors lost after the Civil War. A brooding loner, he resents northerner Rebecca’s winning ways. But he doesn’t count on her Yankee perseverance nor a Union ghost who has plans to make them fall in love over the holiday.

This short story is dedicated to four of my great grandfathers times two and four of my great grandfathers times three who fought in our American Civil War.

Stay tuned for when this story goes live!

In the year 2102, the Fountain of Youth exists for only a select few. But you can’t cheat death ForEvver.

Time is NOT running out for you to read this sizzling Science Fiction Romance! ForEvver has changed publishers and is now, not only still available in print, (click here to order) but also on Amazon.com in the Kindle books section. Click here to see on Amazon.

Here are some of ForEvver's terrific reviews:

5 Stars! The romance and secrets in this book are what made it so intriguing. It was a book that I couldn't put down. This is a good thing as usually I am not a fan of books with a science fiction feel. I loved how Ms. Knight kept the passion and the mystery alive until it was time for one of the other to take front stage and claim the book. I will most definitely be looking for more books written by this author! Reviewed by Once Upon A Romance Reviews. 

4.5 Books! ForEvver had a mixture of intrigue, adventure and romance. It was a very entertaining book and a pleasant read. The threads of the book intertwined perfectly... I enjoyed reading this book and originally picked it because I was intrigued by the title... The title fit the book perfectly. A nice play on words. Well done Ms Knight, definitely a book to snuggle up with. Reviewed by Long and Short Reviews.

You Need To Read! 4 Stars! A great futuristic read with plenty of suspense and intrigue. A little different than your usual future tale, this book will leave you wanting more. Reviewed by You Gotta Read Reviews.

What's ForEvver about? Here's the blurb!

In the year 2102, Flavia Gracchus reluctantly agrees to deliver a special shipment from her home on the Moon to ForEvver Rehabilitation CEO, Reid Evver. What she doesn’t know is that Evver, a man much older than he appears, intends to marry her and start a family. How can she escape Evver’s clutches and wed the man of her dreams?

Ambitious Jason Maverick can’t believe his new assignment: to babysit Reid Evver’s future wife, a Moon native, by escorting her on a sightseeing tour. But the more time Jason spends in Flavia’s company, the more she captivates him. How can he propose to the woman he’s been waiting for all his life when she’s all but bought and paid for by his mysterious, unscrupulous boss?

Hope you enjoy... ForEvver!!!
