Hello June, and thank you for coming on the blog today. What can you tell us about RACING HEART?
Racing Heart
is a Romantic Suspense novel, set against the glamorous backdrops of Monaco , Paris
and Nice. It mixes romance and mystery as Desirée Hart struggles to come to
terms with her past to be able to embrace her future and love into her life.
The Riviera
is a wonderfully glamorous setting for a romance! I would like to know more
about your characters. In three words - What kind of man is your hero?
In three words - What kind of woman is your heroine?
Désirée Hart
is a young woman trusts no one, especially when love is in question, she also
has too many skeletons in her closet.
And what did Lorcan think the first time he saw Désirée?
After
realising that the car collision could be his fault and after his driving
skills were brutally verbally attacked by her, he realises she likes to be in
control of her life. After turning his invitation for a drink down he’s certain
of it.
What about Désirée? What did she think of Lorcan the first time she saw
him?
Before she recognises him, Désirée
thinks Lorcan is one idiot of a driver.
What is the one thing you absolutely need to write? (quiet, music, an
empty house?)
A mug of coffee, music and a time
past midnight. I’m a night owl… and most of my writing is done at that time.
I would probably fall asleep! I'm more of a early morning person. Give me
a silent house and lots of tea or coffee, and cake, of course, and I am very happy!
Do you find it difficult to come up with titles for your novels?
Somewhat difficult.
Although I found the title quite soon, the publisher (Safkhet Soul) decided
with me agreeing, to change its current one.
I absolutely love the names of your
hero and heroine - Désirée is such a romantic name... How do you pick the names
of your characters?
Basically I
choose a name and a surname. After that the research is done – if there is
anyone in the world that has that name… If I find that there is a real person
who owns that name, then I try to combine it with middle name if not – the name
is born… ;)
What are you working on
at the moment?
It’s another romantic suspense, set
mostly in a different climate zone and culture.
And now for the word association fun
test!
Day day job
Night writing
nature peace
books escape
music relaxation
Thank you so much June for coming on the blog today. I wish you lots of
luck with RACING HEART.
Here is a little bit
about the story...
Desiree Hart in
desperate search for her kidnapped son, does everything in her power possible
to find him. Due to a letter she receives after official search was closed, she
changes everything; her appearance, her hometown and even her name.
When she meets Lorcan Shore ,
the Five Times F1 World Campion, their encounter is everything but ordinary.
Out of pure fear for her life, she loses her temper and spits over everything
he is absolutely certain he can do the best; how to drive.
Leaving him alone on Grand Corniche she is certain she would never see him again. But the next morning proves her being totally wrong. He was no quitter and no matter how she tries to run and hide, her heart desires at the end come back to the surface…
Will the man of her
dreams be able to fulfil them all? Including the most important will he help
her find her missing son?
The person behind the name of June
Moonbridge, has many names and many faces too. Although living in the same
area, she was born and raised in one country and now living in another.
She studied economics, and quickly realised
she hated it. Afterwards, she found herself working in mainly male businesses;
at first in automotive and later - steel products productions. She can choose
for you the best steel you need, but don't, please don't, ask her which
lipstick to use.
She started to write in her high
school and was negatively criticised by her teacher. Stubborn as she is
that didn't stop her. Under different pen names for her stories she tried
to get some independent opinions, which came back as good reviews in magazines
and later she published three books.
Giving birth to two children, and
learning that her second child has Autism, she married the father of them
and continued to work. All that together took all of her free time. But the
desire to write didn't die. When life somehow sorted itself out, she decided to
write her novel in English and her first submission to Safkhet was
rejected…
For what happened later… read third
paragraph, second sentence.
