Welcome back, Sharla Lovelace!
Mischievous and sexy, Dani’s old friend Alex still has the power to rock her world, but there’s a big obstacle standing in their way–Alex has been dead for forty years. With a ghost popping up at inopportune moments and sparking conversations with her teenage daughter, Dani scrambles to find solid ground and get a grip—both on her sanity and her heart.

I got so so so so much busier. LOL. Writing under contract is very different than when you’re just under your own timeline, so that was eye-opening.
2. Will there be a sequel to The Reason is You?
Not at this time, my next book is a stand-alone.
3. What are you writing now? ;) it’s still in the infant stage…so can’t say…it might turn to goo if I do.
4. Will you have a new book coming out soon?
My second book, BEFORE AND EVER SINCE, is scheduled to come out in November.
5. Book signings? Where can we meet you and get our copies of The Reason is You signed?
I will be doing a May 19th book signing in Beaumont, TX. I’m also looking at some Houston stores, but I don’t have any dates yet. My website www.sharlalovelace.com has a “What’s Happening” tab that I try to stay diligent about updating, so you can always check there. In any case, I’m always happy to mail out a signed bookplate sticker for your book. Shoot me a message on the Contact form on my website, and I’ll get one out to you. It’s not as fun and personal, but it beats driving 500 miles. LOL!
6. What are your plans for the future, when all of this crazy release stuff settles down, anything you can’t wait to do that you’ve had to put on hold?
Go on vacation!!
7. Goodreads…are you going to peek at the reviews, or duck and run?
Ohhh, I can already tell I’m going to be a bit obsessive at first. I already go looking. J But I’m only giving myself a couple of weeks to indulge, and then I’m walking away from that. It’s not good for the muse!
8. Do you have any advice to give to aspiring writers?
Do your research on agents and editors, and customize to them…make it personal. And make it professional. And develop a thick skin.
9. Is there anything that you would like to say to your readers, fans…or Goodreads reviewers?
I appreciate any and every person that buys my book…the whole experience is very surreal and it still seems bizarre to me that the book is out there. I hope you all enjoy it, and will tell your friends!
10. Where can we find more interviews with you? Well, for the next fifteen days, I’m on a blog tour with Goddess Fish Promotions, and you can see all the stops here: http://goddessfishpromotions.blogspot.com/2012/01/virtual-book-tour-reason-is-you-by.html or go to my website to the “What’s Happening” page…I have them listed there by date.
