Hi, it’s Christina –
Good Morning! How have y’all
been? I feel like I haven’t chatted with you in ages. Sorry about that, it’s
been a little hectic around here, but what else is new, right?
As has happened several
times before, through social media I have found a real friend, a kindred
spirit, and I would like to introduce her to you. Please meet author Lizabeth Scott.
Lizabeth
Scott… in her own words…
In middle
school I discovered my first romance novel by Emily Loring. I quickly read
everything “romance” my small town library had on its shelves. I needed more,
so with the bravery and/or ignorance of youth, I began to write my own stories.
Just for me, nobody even knew that I was writing.
Years go by and writing became dormant as my life evolved. Other things like school, husband, and children took precedence in my life. But through it all, my love for reading never dimmed. I was and still am a voracious reader. I can never get enough!

Our two
children are now grown and out on their own and that little spark that had been
in hibernation for years began to sizzle and then burst into blazing flames.
Thanks to a Facebook friendship with my favorite author of all times, I began
to write at her prompting. Just a scene at first, I was actually shocked that
is wasn’t too bad.
It happened slowly. The more I wrote, the more I loved it. No one was more surprised than I was when months later I finished my first book. And absolutely no one was more surprised than I was when I published Sweet Surrender.

Currently I
am working a full time job, squeezing writing in when I can, and dreaming of
one day…

Lizabeth is well on her
way to fulfilling that dream. She has two different series, The Royal Vow &
Hearts of Gold. Royal Vow starts off with Sweet Royal Beginnings – A FREE
Novella. (You know how much I like a bargain – and with it being FREE, you can
check out her writing style to see if you like it.) The link to it, as well as
all of Lizabeth’s books, can be found under the photos. Below is a brief blurb
about each of her books.
Royal Vow Series
SweetRoyal Beginnings - Jane & Mike
Sweet Royal Beginnings |
Abandoned at birth, Jane Smith didn’t have much experience with the
elusive emotion of love. Frankly, she didn’t even believe that any such emotion
existed. After all she had gotten along just fine all on her own for twenty
some years. She certainly didn’t need some obnoxious, over inflated,
egotistical man coming into her world and turning it upside down.
“Mike” thought entirely too highly of himself, and Jane was one woman
that would not fall at his feet just because he was a prince (and probably the
most handsome man she had ever seen in her life). His strong broad shoulders
and dark brown hair or his midnight blue eyes did nothing for her, nor did his
whiskey smooth accent send messages of warning to her female parts.
Sweet Surrender – Mari & Ki
Sweet Surrender |
Small town waitress, Mari Roe, can’t believe the tall, dark, and tasty
guy that just walked into her
restaurant. There is something about him that makes her lose all reason. When
he invites her to join him on the remainder of his business trip, Mari puts her
foot down. Someone like him is only interested in someone like her for one
reason.
Prince Kiliad SuMartra can’t believe his eyes when a feisty harem girl
accosts him in the parking lot of a greasy spoon restaurant. Mari excites him
in ways that he has never experienced before. He is totally smitten by her
gentleness and innocence. Keeping his identity from her is a decision that he
may live to regret.
Sweet Denial – Ella & Zahir
Sweet Denial |
Ella had loved Prince Zahir secretly since she'd met him at her sister’s
wedding. She'd thought he'd felt the same way, only to have her heart crushed
when he chose another. For years she avoided him at all costs. She tried to
move on, but it just wasn’t in the cards. When circumstances brought them back
together, Ella found out some hard truths. Could she forgive him? Could they
start over? Or had too many secrets spoiled what might have been?
Zahir made the decision to send her away for her own good. It was the
hardest thing he had ever done. He spent years secretly watching over her until
he thought she was ready for what he had to offer. Did he make the biggest
mistake of his life? By never revealing his secrets could he have lost the love
of his life? He refused to accept that. He must prevail and convince Ella that
what they felt for each other was too strong to ignore.
Sweet Seduction – Kassie & Taj
Sweet Seduction |
Kassie had no time in her life for Prince Tajeria SuMartra. Her focus
had to be on helping her mom raise her four younger sisters and keep their
business going. So, when Prince Taj literally knocked her off her feet, she
couldn’t understand why she allowed him into her life and into her arms.
Taj knew the moment he saw Kassie that she would somehow change his
life. The only problem was she ran away before he could even get her name. The
second time their paths crossed he not only found out her name but also the
location of her family’s bakery. Now he had to get Kassie to admit that what
they had together was more than just a passing attraction.
Sweet Temptation – Chellie & Siran COMING SOON
With exams over, Chellie was on her way to Cabo with her college
roommate to celebrate the end of their junior year until her roommate had to
cancel. After driving for hours to get to her parents’ house, she was only
interested in falling into her bed and sleeping around the clock. What she
didn’t expect was to have her fantasy dream come to life and derail her future.
Her one night of passion cost her the respect of her parents and friends, ended
her college career, and made her boss think she was an easy target. What that
one magical night gave her was her most precious possession.
Siran had quite the playboy image as the fourth SuMartra son. He worked
hard, and he played hard. If you believed everything written about him, he had
a different woman every week, drank to excess, and loved the fast life. So of
course he took advantage of the warm and willing body in the bed he fell into
to sleep off his drunken stupor.
Hearts of Gold Series
A Sheik for Rose |
Rose overheard her boss, the only reason they chose her to represent
Royston Oil was because Sheik Rashid had a thing for blonde busty women.
Instead of getting angry at their obvious stereotyping she decided to show them
a thing or two. She would get the Sheik's signature on the oil processing
rights by using nothing more than her skills and intelligence. It was time she
shook up the “Old Boy’s Club.”
What Rose hadn’t planned on was the infuriating rudeness of Sheik
Rashid. But, she had a plan. He had cancelled on her for the last time. Little
did Rose know, but her plan would lead to a night of unrivaled sensuality and
pleasure at the hands of one annoying Sheik.

Okay, so now we come to the real reason behind this blog post. Lizabeth’s
BRAND NEW book A Star for Annie is
coming out Wednesday, April 1st, on our SHARED birthday. How cool is
that? She gets to release a book on her birthday, and I get to ask for the book
as a birthday present (I dropped a not so subtle hint to my hubby.)
A Star for Annie |
Come on board The Carter Ryan - World Storm Tour with an all access
backstage pass. Go behind the scenes and become part of crew who take the
world by storm!
Dr. Sylva Ann Gold found herself without a job and music’s headliner
Carter Ryan discovered he needed a nanny for his daughter. But not just any
nanny, he wanted Dr. Gold.
Annie and Carter jumped on the tour bus and clashed at every bump in the
road, the chemistry between them became impossible to ignore. An innocent slip
of the towel and their attraction finally reached the boiling point.
Were they victims of circumstance, or was there something more?

Sweet Royal Beginnings, as I said, is a novella, and it’s only around 50
pages. Sweet Surrender is a little over twice as long, but the remaining books
are in the 155-165 page range. They are all $2.99 (except the free novella).
They are all intended for mature audiences, so don’t let the “sweet” name or
sweet covers mislead you (like what happened on my book, A Second Chance).
You can find Lizabeth's books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple iTunes, Google Play,
Kobo. Her website will give you excerpts from each of the books, as well as
links to her blog, Twitter and Facebook page.
Oh, and by the way, the third book in Lizabeth’s Hearts of Gold series,
A Cowboy for Mary, will be coming out soon as well – so you won’t have to wait
too long.
I don’t know about you, but all of these look fabulous. Obviously I won’t
be able to get through the whole Royal Vow series before my birthday, but I
will definitely try to squeeze in A Sheik for Rose between now and then.
As always, when I’ve been away from y’all for a while, my first day back’s
blog tends to be lengthy, so I will stop this here. I’ll check back soon and
update you on what’s happening in my world and with the actual link to A Star for Annie.
I hope you have a fantastic
day, and happy writing!
Your Next Challenge is:
Don’t
let her get away…
You have ten minutes (be
honest). There is no right or wrong, just write. Spelling and punctuation don’t
count, and NO ONE is allowed to criticize what someone else has written. Go.
