Welcome Kris 🙂

Hey everyone! Thanks first of all, to Love Bytes for hosting me today. And thanks to you all for stopping in to read.

Sean Newvine, the narrator of my newest release, Love at Roades End, is one of the easiest characters I’ve ever written. From the moment he appeared in my head, I knew him inside and out. I knew exactly what kind of guy he was.

The thing about Sean is, he isn’t anyone special. He’s just a regular, average guy. He’s a computer programmer who lucked out in getting an awesome job working for a college friend. And one of the perks of that job is that he sometimes gets to go on and review mini-vacations. He’s happy with his life, content even, and he’s not actively looking for more. I liked him from the moment I “met” him and I thought he’d make a great character.

Since I mostly write from first person POV, I knew Sean would be the narrator of this short story. I always found it incredibly easy to slip into his mindset and pen the tale. There’s nothing angsty or terribly in depth here. This is just a short, easy, happy read about two guys who meet and fall in love.

It’s Valentine’s Day after all, and a guy like Sean, someone who is happy, content, and settled, deserves to find love. And when he sets foot in the Roades End Inn and meet Hunter for the first time, he’s smitten by the beautiful and charismatically formal man. These guys were meant to be together, and I was just happy to write their story and be able to share it with you all. It’s short, it’s happy, it’s a little bit fluffy, and it’s a sweet Valentine’s Day story. I loved writing it, and I hope you’ll consider it when you’re looking for your Valentine’s reads.

Blurb: Love at Roades End

Sean Newvine is looking forward to his weekend at Roades End Inn so he can review his stay there for inclusion on his travel website. What he never expects is for the owner, Hunter Roades, to capture his attention from the very start.

The only problem is Hunter thinks Sean’s been sent by his brother on a blind date so that Hunter doesn’t have to spend Valentine’s Day alone. Once the awkward misunderstanding is resolved, Sean is charmed by Hunter’s formality and hospitality. And when they have a chance to really talk, sparks fly.

A passion-filled night has them both wanting more, but Hunter pulls away knowing Sean doesn’t live in town and the distance might be more than they can overcome. Sean and Hunter must figure out if they can make it work for longer than one night, or if their chance at love will end at Roades End Inn before it can begin.
