Our lives are a cascade of events that pass faster than we would like them to. Time changes everything. Our habits, our views, our circle of friends. But there is one thing that remains the same over the years.
Our memories.
Through them we cherish the most unforgettable moments of our history. And they also retain some things that can't be forgotten….
But one day you realize that yesterday should be left in the past. Because tomorrow your new life begins, and you go back to the drawing board.
A love story of Evan Murray and Tara Mackenzie.
A story that should last forever….
But no one knows when forever ends….

Interview for Beth Edwards
- What gives you the inspiration to write
your books?
-
I try to pay attention to everything that is
going on around me. I take ideas from my friends and family. Today I watched a
movie that helped me to come up with a new twist of my Love Lines story:) I
like good, meaningful songs that give you something to think about. My books
show everything I feel in my real life, from love to hate:)
- Who is your favorite character in the
book?
-
I always say that I like all of my characters:)
But, I do have a favorite one. Evan Murray. My new book (a short story) named
From Scratch is about Evan, his life and his love. I don’t know how he managed
to become my favorite character, it just happened:) Starting Love Lines I
wasn’t planning to involve Evan in so many event’s of the story, but he turned
out to be one of the funniest and charming characters that makes my readers
smile a lot:) His comments are always smart, but sharp and that makes him so
unique. Everything about Evan is not what it seems. His face can be smiling,
but his soul will be crying at the same time. He can be strong and weak, and no
one will even know what he hides in the depth of his heart. He’s a walking
contradiction, and I like writing about him, revealing new sides of his nature.
- Which came first, the title or the novel?
-
The title. It was the only thing I was sure
about starting my Love Lines series. I changed a lot about the plot, but the title
remained untouched:)
- What part of the story are you most proud
of, and why?
-
I think there are a few parts or things I can
be proud of. The history of Dever, the old legends my characters find in the
historical records and diaries, the curses the power of which they fight every
day and the bond between Eileen and Christian. I tried my best to make my story
unique and special and to make all of the about easy to read, understand and
remember:)
- Thinking way back to the beginning, what’s
the most important thing you’ve learned as a writer from then to now?
-
The most important thing is finding a good
proofreader (or editor). Well, at least it’s the most important thing for me as
I’m not a native speaker:) Despite the fact that I do write my books in
English, I need someone else to edit them for me.
- What do you like most about the covers of
your books?
-
Everything! Lol. I like both Black & White
and Colorful collections. I’m proud of myself for creating some of them and I
adore my cover designer Jennifer Munswami who created so beautiful covers for
my books’ Gift editions. I didn’t have to tell her what to do with the covers,
she chose the colors and images on her own and I LOVED the results of her work!
All of my covers reflect the main ideas of my books and I think they are
eye-catching and unique:)
- What new release book are you looking most
forward to in 2013?
-
Appolyon by J.L. Armentrout, Sweet Peril by
Wendy Higgins and The Indigo Spell by Richelle Mead.
- What was your favorite book in 2012?
-
There were many good books actually:) I liked
Deity by J.L. Amnentrout, Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins, Beautiful disaster by
Jamie McGuire and others.
- What’s up next for you?
-
At the moment I’m working on the 3rd
book of the Love Lines series and I’m planning to start a new series (a
trilogy) about the guardian angels.
- Is there anything that you would like to
add?
-
First of all I’d like to say thanks for hosting
the Tour. It was a pleasure to answer your questions, Beth and I hope you and
other readers will enjoy reading my previous and new books:)
