Welcome to Day 29 of the 2nd Annual Romancing September Across The World Blog Tour. I’ve teamed up with Rosie Amber again this year. We’re promoting 30 awesome romance authors in 30 days. Help us out by cross promoting when you can and check out these authors.
Don’t forget to go over to Rosie Amber’s page and check out her page too.
Today my guest author is Rae Rivers and I want to thank her for blogging with me today. Here is a little about her and her book The Keepers: Declan.
- What inspired you to write this book?
Until this series, I’d always only written romantic suspense stories. Initially the idea of Sienna came to mind – a powerful witch destined to protect the balance of nature. With her duties and responsibilities comes great dangers so the idea of a Keeper came to mind – someone to help her, protect her and be her ally in protecting the balance. In her case, because of her importance and power, she comes with three Keepers – three brothers, four books, hot romance and one huge epic adventure!
- What’s your favourite part of this book and why?
I loved the scenes with Declan and Kate together as their romance journey is so beautiful. I’m particularly pleased with the ending of this book as it turned out so differently to the first draft. Writing the second ending was an adrenaline fuelled ride for me – and the book is better because of it.
- What is your philosophy on writing and life?
Have fun. Be it writing or living … have fun.
- Name your three favourite books that you’ve written — feel free to list buy links
My first book ever written was a romantic suspense book, Cat Got Your Tongue? Filled with art heists, cat burglars and spicy romance, this was so much fun to write. Since then, I’ve written The Keepers: Sienna, The Keepers: Archer – and most recently, The Keepers: Declan. My favourite is probably Declan. Although this wasn’t the easiest book to write, I really enjoyed the writing experience as this was the first book I’d ever written knowing I had eager readers waiting for it. Their daily messages of support and enthusiasm was something I treasured whilst writing Declan and I really hope they enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. http://smarturl.it/TheKeepers
5) What are your goals for this year?
Personally – to organise my life better. Balancing motherhood, life and writing has been a challenge and something always suffers in the end. My goal for this year is to get more organised! Professionally – to complete the last book in the series and have the time of my life doing it!! As for after that … I have another idea in mind that’s itching for attention. Can’t wait!
6) If you had to give one piece of advice what would it be?
Follow your dreams, trust your instincts and believe in yourself. And laugh. A lot.

RAE RIVERS BIO
I’m an avid reader and writer with a passion for writing romance novels. I live in Cape
Town, South Africa, with my gorgeous husband, two beautiful children and a zoo of house pets.
Besides writing, I love family time, the outdoors, travelling, watching TV series, reading and
chocolate.

“You lied to me, misled me, attacked me,” Declan murmured, dipping his head toward hers, “but what we had three months ago wasn’t fake, was it?”
Kate’s gaze faltered to his lips, heat pulsing between them. But she didn’t deny it.
Declan Bennett has zero tolerance for thieves. He and his brothers, the Keepers, are fiercely protective of their witch, Sienna, and their privacy.
So when Kate Carrigan breaks into their estate, he’ll be damned if he lets the little wildcat get away with it – especially after she seduced him three months ago, leaving him buck-naked in a New Orleans hotel. Declan wants payback – and some answers.
Before she was murdered, Kate’s mother ingrained it in her not to trust anyone. Kate’s magical powers make her a pawn in the war between good and evil, a war she’s always avoided. Declan is everything she’s been taught to fear, even if she can’t forget the memory of his touch that one night…
Trouble is brewing as the powers of evil regroup – bolder and hungrier than ever – and Kate is forced to choose a side.
Hot romance, epic battles and action abound in Book 2 of The Keepers.
Thanks so much for joining us on this grand adventure we call Romancing September Across the World 2014 Blog Tour.
As always, good writing and May God Bless You…
