Tolliver St. James knows that Jin is the man for him. They’ve been in a relationship for two years
and he wants them to be publicly out, but Jin wants them to keep hiding in the
shadows. When Jin’s father forces Jin
into an engagement to a woman, Tolliver is afraid of losing his lover forever.
But when Tolliver is caught in grips of an avalanche, Jin
knows he can’t live his life without him and it’s a race against time to find
the man he loves more than anything.
Q & A
1.
What was your hardest scene to write in this
book?
The avalanche scene. I had to do a lot of research to see
how a person could survive one. I wanted to write it as authentically and as believable
as possible. (read the book to find out how! ) LOL!!!!
2.
Did you hide any secrets or Easter Eggs?
Not really, but if there are any fans of Korean television shows,
you’ll notice that the main character’s name is the same as the main character
from the show “Boys Over Flowers”, which is from the Japanese manga “Hana Yori
Dango”.
3.
Since the publication, what would you say has
improved in your writing?
I think my grammar.
4.
Do you believe a book cover plays an important
role in the selling process?
Absolutely! A cover artist has a difficult job in making a
book marketable and I think this cover does a good job in letting the reader know
what to expect when they start reading it.
EXCERPT
As he walked toward the elevators, Jin felt his world
breaking apart although he didn’t blame Tolliver for breaking things off. He’d been very clear about his position on
their relationship from the beginning and he’d compromised his beliefs to
accommodate Jin’s heritage. But what
could he do? Just walk away from his
family, and from his dream?
Christ, did he even want to be a skier anymore?
He was so afraid of making the wrong decision, and of
regretting something, that he felt frozen inside. He didn’t want to give Tolliver up, but maybe
Tol was going to take that decision away from him. Maybe he wouldn’t have anything else but
skiing to take up the empty future without Tolliver’s presence.
And how would he feel when Tolliver eventually found someone
else?
The elevator opened to the private penthouse floor and Jin
felt like he was being delivered a death sentence. He knocked on the door and it opened
immediately and before he could say anything Tolliver grabbed his arm and
pulled him into the room.
They stared at each other for a long moment and Jin couldn’t
help but admire Tol’s suave sophistication.
His grey streaked black hair gave him an iron tough appearance and his
blue eyes were sharp and missed nothing.
He was tall, with a massive chest and shoulders that had a fine dusting
of hair. Jin knew Tol worked out every
morning, as well as skied on the weekends to give his body tone and
definition. He was what some people
would call a bear man, and Jin never thought he’d be attracted to such bulk,
but every time Tol touched him it was like fireworks exploding.
He opened his mouth to say something, anything to erase the
distance in Tolliver’s eyes, but just as he opened his mouth, Tol reached out
and pulled Jin into his arms. The
tension that had been building up inside Jin broke and his arms crept around
Tolliver to hold on tightly.
