A warm welcome to author Christine d’Abo visting us today on her riptide blog tour for newest release “Rebound Remedy”.

Welcome Christine 🙂

Thank you for having me here today! Let me introduce myself. I’m Christine d’Abo and I’m an author and lover of erotic romance. I’ve been writing seriously for ten years and have been published for the last eight of those. I love video games, superheroes, and anything that will mess with your mind. I’m also a secret ninja, but I’m unable to discuss those matters. Shhh…

I have this tendency to have at least one of my characters in every story be a bit of a cook. I think this comes back to my love of cooking and baking. In Rebound Remedy, Owen makes Cole a breakfast as a thank you for helping him get a drunk out of the bar the night before. That doesn’t end well for Cole, and he ends up on the receiving end of a punch. So Owen cooks!

One of my family favorite things to make for breakfast are cinnamon roll pancakes. They are to die for and totally addictive. Thankfully, they’re not difficult to make. I use the recipe found over at The Recipe Girl’s website.

INGREDIENTS:

CINNAMON FILLING: 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, just melted (not boiling) 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon

CREAM CHEESE GLAZE: 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter 2-ounces cream cheese, at room temperature 3/4 cup powdered sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

PANCAKES: 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup milk 1 large egg, lightly beaten 1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil.

For the rest of the directions and for some excellent reference pictures, head over to the original site.

About Rebound Remedy

The last thing Cole expects to get for the holidays is dumped.  But there he is, in the airport on his way to Banff for a romantic getaway, helplessly watching as his boyfriend’s ex declares undying love, proposes—and is accepted. With a few weeks to go until Christmas, Cole’s mood dives from jolly to jaded. But instead of sitting at home alone and feeling sorry for himself, he goes to his favorite bar, McGregor’s, for a pint and some company.

The moment Owen McGregor sets eyes on Cole, he knows there’s something wrong. So he takes it upon himself to ensure that Cole has a happy holiday: twelve outings for the twelve days before Christmas. Even if he can’t quite think up twelve activities that don’t involve getting the forlorn hunk into his bed.

With each outing they take together, Cole realizes that the love he thought he’d shared with his ex was less than perfect. And that Owen might prove to be more than just his rebound remedy.
