A warm welcome to author Jaime Samms joining us today to talk about new release “Sunshine in the Dragon’s Heart”.
Welcome Jaime 🙂
We all have dreams. Good ones and bad ones. I’m sure the bad ones, we would rather be woken from so that we can get on to the good ones. Waking or sleeping, though. I believe dreams are meant to take us to a better place. At night, during the good dreams, we envision in our mind’s eye what could be, without the restriction of our waking thoughts and fears.
Day dreams are for us to plan all the things that distractions like kids and day jobs and grocery lists tell us have to wait.
When Sunny moved out to the middle of no where, he’d all but given up on dreams. He wanted peace, quiet, and to forget his losses. When Emile ran there, he was escaping a nightmare. What they both found was something they had only dared to imagine when no one else was looking.
A small Excerpt about how that went:
The dream, as patchy as it was, didn’t hold the trepidation so many of his dreams had since Emikku had come here. It consisted mostly of the water sprites teasing and playing at fortune telling, splashing their mirth at the intended recipient of their message, who didn’t have a clue what the sprites were showing.
To be fair, water sprites were notorious for being imprecise with their messages even before they infused them with riddles and vague images.
Sunshine played about the edges of the dream, bouncing this way and that, flashing off golden skin and shining teeth, curly hair, and the flying, feathery coat of… the dog. Something wet flicked over his finger. The water sprites teasing again, splashing at him because they knew how he dreaded getting wet.
He waved them off, muttering, then started when something chilled dug into his ribs.
“Ah!” He jumped, shuffling to the back of his little nest and covering the spot. “No!”
He blinked into dusty sunlight.
Next to his cot, the dog watched him, head cocked.
“What are you doing here?” Emikku asked, staring back.
The dog’s tail whipped from side to side. His ears perked up and forward. He lolled his tongue out and smiled.
“I think,” a strange voice interrupted, “more to the point, what are you doing here?”
“Oh!” He pressed his back against the wall. There was no place else to go. Belatedly he realised the blankets he’d been using had slipped to the floor and he was crouched, naked, staring at the pretty blond man with the halo of curls and shards of sun in his eyes. “You,” he whispered.

And the Blurb:
When Sunny retires to the northern Ontario wilderness to mourn his parents’ deaths, he’s hoping the change of scenery will afford him some peace and quiet.
His hopes are soon spectacularly dashed.
In self-imposed exile, dragon Emile runs across the Fold between his dimension and Sunny’s—and right into Sunny’s arms. Centuries out of touch with human culture, bright, beautiful Emile incinerates any hope Sunny had for an ordinary existence. With dryads and water sprites coming to life all around them, Sunny can’t deny the magic Emile brings to his life—or his heart. But that same magic leads the unrelenting dragon who would keep Emile captive right to them. To save his love, Sunny will have to reach deep and find some magic of his own.
Jaime has been published since the fall of 2008. Her Stories about men falling in love are the stories that she loves to read, so they are also the stories she loves to write.
Spare time, when it can be found rolled into a ball at the back of the dryer or cavorting with the dust bunnies in the corners, is spent crocheting, drawing, gardening (weather permitting, of course, since she is Canadian!), or watching movies. She has a day job which she loves, and two kids, and thankfully, wonderful husband who shoulders more than his fair share.
She graduated some time ago from college with a fine arts diploma, and a major in textile arts, which basically qualifies her to draw pictures and create things with string and fabric. One always needs an official slip of paper to fall back on after all . . .
