Book Date! A Build a Book Boyfriend Production

Almost caught up! This interview with Peggy was a blast, okay, I say that a lot but then I love talking writing and books, but I could have talked to Peggy about writing and tropes/ sub-genres endlessly. I’ve read The latest in her Heaven’s Matchmaker series, Perfect Match. This is book is not my normal alien Sci-Fi romance genre! But I have to say these characters grabbed me. The heroine is the t...

I’m still catching up with postings, but I wanted to get this one out, mostly because it was so much fun to do. Syd and I could talk for-evah. She is amazing at her job— She is the store manager for The Last Chapter in Roscoe Village in Chicago. Seriously, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast let alone authors and titles the way she can! If you are in the area check them out. They also h...

In the words of Josh Johnson “Oooff.” June has been a whirlwind I have just started to recover from and it is basically over. So there is going to be a ton of content coming fast and furiously as I get caught up. This first chapter should have come out around the 15th but I was knee deep in a kitchen renovation (that thankfully is almost done!) and by the time I looked up it was yesterday! The fir...

Happy Pride Month!!! So it is fitting that I’m interviewing Maria about her M/M Sci-Fi Shifter book On a Rift’s Edge. A great, sexy romance with themes of getting along and healing. Her character’s are wild, but still manage to be relatable, because over-bearing mothers are everywhere. I loved this tag from her description of the book “ On A Rift’s Edge is a MM paranormal romance with a cinnamon-r...

Romance Reader Concierge Service: noun; A service that helps Romance Readers find their next favorite book through a curated process that functions like the concierge in a hotel to craft the perfect experience you are looking for. Does that make any sense? Look we all have TBR piles/files stacking up, and are all susceptible to ‘Shiny’ syndrome. You know when you hear about the next big book out o...

*Content Warning* This scene portrays one man pleasuring himself while another man watches. If that offends your sensibilities this may not be the episode for you. Or maybe wear headphones if you are listening at work, or don’t… I raved about Fiorenzo when I was interviewing Sebastian, and he was gracious enough to allow me to record the first chapter. This is long but again the language is so evo...

I loved doing this interview! Sebastian was so much fun to talk to and a great interview. The book we talk about is Fiorenzo. His latest, that full disclosure I freakin’ loved! Rich decadent language, characters you want to know more about, settings that transport you to another world. If you love romantasy, but are a little done with the standard “she isn’t like other girls” assassins. And, you l...

You can find 3000 Reasons to Stay at: https://amzn.to/4jyaSRW (affiliate link) I loved this book! Romance perhaps more than any other genre is character driven but when you find a book, especially a contemporary romance, where the characters are pitch perfect, you grab it! This is one of those. While this is a military romance too, it doesn’t hit you over the head with it. There are no scenes wher...

Available through Kindle Unlimited https://amzn.to/3EuVYNi (affiliate link) Trying something here, I’d love to know if you like it. I’m not a professional narrator for starters! So don’t roast me. I am learning about a bunch of great books from the authors I’m interviewing and it occurred to me that I could pass the love on by reading first chapters. For the ebook you can read the first 10% or so...

I had the great pleasure of sitting down with Jaime P. Bradley the author of the 3000 Reasons series. Her contemporary romances are filled with women so relatable you’ll find yourself talking to them. And military guys so swoon worthy you’ll start picking through military dating sites. But maybe that was just me. Seriously loved Wait, the first book and sort of a prequel with it’s own wholly devel...

If I was going to be interviewing other authors, a notoriously shy bunch, it seemed only fair that I turn the questions on myself too! This interview is about half the length of others, which is weird since I talk to myself all the time! Hope you enjoy it! you can find out more about my books, and me at www.lcgiroux.com . You can find Reluctant Mate, the first book in my The Fated Mates Series on...
