Blog Tour - Sweet Southern Bad Boy by Michele Summers | Interview, Spreading the Word, & Novel Giveaway

Today I'm showing off Michele Summers' "Sweet Southern Bad Boy," which is her recently released novel, the THIRD novel in her Harmony Homecomings Series, and the novel I recently interviewed her about!

ALSO -- Be sure to check out the Gleam contest at the bottom of this post to be able to sign up for this blog tour's GIVEAWAY!! [Promotion for this post and its Giveaway will run from December 5 - 26, 2016]

My Q&A with Michele Summers :

Jess : What sparked the idea for "Sweet Southern Bad Boy?"

Michele : I think it first started with the kids, because I’d been dealing a lot with my own active kids and my sister’s five boys. And I thought it’d be funny to see how two people with no children handle the situation.

Jess : Which of your characters would you invite or not invite to dinner?

Michele : I’d most likely invite Bertie from "Find My Way Home" to dinner because we’re both interior designers and collector of great shoes; we’d have lots to talk about. And I like her eclectic style…reminds me a lot of me! 😉 And I’d probably not invite Lucy from "Not So New In Town" because she’d get me in tons of trouble eating junk food! I wouldn’t be able to resist Cheetos and M&M’s, some of her favorites.

Jess : Which comes first for me the character’s story or the idea for the novel?

Michele : Hmmm, I think character’s story comes first. Some wacky idea will hit me about a personality quirk or a “what if” scenario and I’ll run with it and build a story around that character.

Jess : Are there any differences and/or similarities between Vance from "Sweet Southern Bad Boy" and Brogan from "Not So New In Town?"

Michele : Both are very competitive and athletic. Both have strong personalities and both played high school football together and remained close friends. Brogan was a nicer more approachable guy in high school whereas Vance was a bit on the wild side. And Brogan figured out a way to make a living with his healthy lifestyle while Vance became a writer to right some wrongs from his past.

Jess : Favorite part to write in a novel...

Michele : Hands down: the dialogue. I love to write the banter between the Hero and the Heroine or even between the best friends. If it were up to me, my books would be nothing but running dialogue with no reference to setting, time or place.

Jess : Favorite secondary characters...

Michele : My top two favorite secondary characters are Dottie Duncan, the meddling wealthy owner of the Toot-N-Tell, because she’s always butting in everyone’s business with her no-nonsense approach. She tells it like it is. And then I’d have to say Clancy Perry, the redneck tree trimmer who’s always trying to horn in and steal the heroines out from under the heroes’ noses. He was just so darn fun to write.

Jess : How many books have you written?

Michele : I’ve written four books and have to say SSBB is my all-time favorite. I still think about Vance and Katie. I loved their chemistry and the situation of taking care of those kids. They tugged at my heartstrings and made me laugh at the same time.

Jess : And other projects in the works?

Michele : Yes, I’m working on a fun series set in Miami where I lived for over 20 years. It’s centered around three brothers, all athletes in different stages of their careers and how they find love in women who are basically their complete opposites.

Jess : Favorite aspect of the holidays:

Michele : My favorite part of the holidays is time off. I love the few days before and after when everything is already prepared…or not, where we all sit around and enjoy each other’s company. Time off from work and obligations. It’s the only time I actually slow down and rest.

Jess : Cartoon character that represents your personal philosophy?

Michele : Okay, I’m not sure if this counts, but I’d have to say Belle from Beauty and the Beast, because it’s my favorite Disney fairy tale and because she was smart and did the right thing. And she ended up with the prince in the end! Perfect.

Jess : If someone wrote a biography about me, what would the title be?

Michele : "Finding Humor…amongst the crazies!"

Blog Tour - Sweet Southern Bad Boy by Michele Summers | Casting Call Spotlight, Spreading the Word, & Novel Giveaway

Today I'm showing off Michele Summers' "Sweet Southern Bad Boy," which is the THIRD novel in her Harmony Homecomings Series!!

ALSO -- Be sure to check out Rafflecopter at the bottom of this post to be able to sign up for this blog stop's GIVEAWAY(s)!! [Blog Tour & Giveaway will run from November 28 - December 24, 2016]

"Sweet Southern Bad Boy" is now casting actors for the main couple :

Looking for dynamic couple with off the charts chemistry and sizzling sex appeal and ability to banter, laugh and cry with each other. Need to believe in the elusive love at first sight and living happily ever after.

"Sweet Southern Bad Boy" Casting Call :

Casting call for one strong, hunky, athletic, alpha-male with a bit of an attitude and a little bit of crank on the side, but beneath the gruff exterior, a really good guy. All actors apply between 29 and 34 years of age, 6’ to 6’-3’’ tall, dark longish hair, dark eyes, cool facial scuff, and totally handsome. No scrawny pip-squeaks need apply. No shaved heads, dreadlocks or Mohawks and no Duck Dynasty look-a-likes. Authentic southern drawl a real plus along with a sexy smoldering look and a piratical smile.

Calling all pretty, fresh-faced gals with long dark hair and dark eyes, approximately 5’-4” to 5-6” in height with a sunny smile and disposition to match. Between the ages of 26 and 30; size 10 with womanly curves. Nice but no push-over, strong enough to wrangle three wild children under the age of 6. No shrinking violets, or high-maintenance, spoiled princesses need apply. Executing piercing wolf whistle could seal the deal.

Cynthia (Cindy/Cinderella) & Chad [from "Cinderella’s Cowboy" [This Old House Series, Book 4] by Roxanne Snopek]: With a kitty, instead of a shoe, to bring Cynthia & Chad together I was charmed. I liked how their relationship subtly grew and how Chad’s ten-year mystery was revealed.

It was just so sweet I could not get enough.
Mia & Ryder [from "Mia and the Bad Boy" [Backstage Pass Series, Book 2] by Lisa Burstein]: Together they are a powerful duo who seem to help each other turn into who they want and are meant to be. I thoroughly enjoyed Ryder and Mia's banter; it livens up every scene and is very entertaining. ♥

Candy & Guy (Steele) [from "Baby Twins to Bind Them" by Carol Marinelli]: They livened each other up while broadening their own views about what they wanted out of life. Yet what really made me fall for their romance was how everything played out within the last few chapters, it's just so charming!!
Orwenna (Wen) & Huroth [from "Dragon Wife" [Dragon Clan Series, Book 1] by Diana Green]: I really liked how Orwenna (Wen) & Huroth fell in love. Especially I liked that Wen was able to hold onto her new scene of self and purpose throughout the time she was falling for Huroth and how he liked her even more for it.
Carina & King Marek [from "Caller of Light" by T. J. Shaw]: Their connection is shown as being all-consuming but in a way where they both benefit and strengthen each other. ♥

Tess & Forrest [from "Go Small or Go Home" [Toronto Collection, Book 2] by Heather Wardell]: Together Tess & Forrest are a bit of a heart wrenching pair. They made me want to root for them no matter what, yet because of Forrest past, it doesn’t always seem like it’ll be a happy ending for them. I thoroughly enjoyed their relationship.
Amie (Amethyst) & Preston [from "Pregnant by the Cowboy CEO" [Diamonds in The Rough Series, Book 3] by Catherine Mann]: Together I found Amie and Preston to be a spicy and fun pair that challenge each other into being better versions of themselves.

Leona (Le) & Zack (Zachariah/Zachary) [from "The Promise of Palm Grove" [Amish Brides of Pinecraft Series, Book 1] by Shelley Shepard Gray]: Zack—with his generously sweet ways—and Leona made this a novel I didn’t want to put down. I liked their relationship very much. ♥
Lily & Dallas (The Destroyer) [from "Dragon's Redemption" [Dragon Lore Series, Book 2] by Eden Ashe]: I absolutely could NOT get enough of Dallas and Lily! Together they made a dynamic duo who fit each other perfectly.
Henrietta (Hattie) & Jean [from "No Gentleman" [Taming the Alpha Anthology, Novella 6], [Cora’s Choice Series], & [Cora’s Bond Series] by V. M. Black]: I really liked them together as they complemented each other so well. Plus, I liked reading their banter.

Julia & Alistair (Michael) [from "Heart of Steel" by Elizabeth Einspanier]: Their novel is sort of setup in the "Beauty & the Beast" style, where you get to see both the good and bad sides of each character but root for them to be together in the end.
Phoenix & Riley [from "This Heart of Mine" [Whiskey Creek Series, Book 8] by Brenda Novak]: I couldn't get enough of Phoenix & Riley, didn't want their novel to end, as it was all I could've hoped for and more! Their story made me laugh, it made me tear up a lot, and most of all made me wish for a man like Riley too. ♥
Emma & Jay [from "A Wedding at the Orange Blossom Inn" [Amish Brides of Pinecraft Series, Book 3] by Shelley Shepard Gray]: Their relationship grows quickly in this novel but I love how it was all handled and the calming effect they have for one another. The love that they show for one another and their unique situation kept reminding me of the 1968 version of “Yours, Mine, and Ours,” even though there is a lot more children in the movie.

Grace & Oliver (Earl of Carlisle) [from "The Earl’s Defiant Wallflower" [Dukes of War Series, Book 1] by Erica Ridley]: They make quite a pair as they fumble through Society hoping to help one another out while hoping for the best. I think what I liked about them the most is their gracious hearts, and how they kept putting those they cared for first.
Sam (Samantha) & Kevin [from "Crossing Lines" [Heat Wave Series, Book 3] by Alannah Lynne]: Kevin & Sam were great together, definitely a perfect pair despite how they got together.
Ellie & Alek [from "Carrying the Greek's Heir" [One Night With Consequences Series, Book 8] by Sharon Kendrick]: I really liked was how Alek and Ellie come together in their relationship. It was sweet, dramatic, and well plotted out.

Jessica (Jess) & Zane [from "Her Forbidden Cowboy" [Moonlight Beach Bachelors Series, Book 1] by Charlene Sands]: They are quite the pair. I can’t picture them with anyone else...Their novel hits a homerun on many levels! ♥
Emily & August [from "The Evolution of Emily" [Kennedy High Series, Book 2] by Kate Scott]: The chemistry between August and Emily is off the charts!
Jasmine (Princess), R. D., & Logan [from "Her Stepbrothers’ Demands" by Trinity Blacio]: Together this triad was one that captivated me in the way they go about joining and dealing with threats against them.

Paige & Archer [from "Hunting a Mate" [Quick & Furry Series, Book 6] by Celia Kyle & Mina Carter]: They were a great couple! Archer is supportive of Paige’s “incidents” while Paige was adorable as she grew into her confidence around him.
Kim & Lucas [from "Falling for the Firefighter" [Taming the Alpha Anthology, Novella 7] & [Hot Zone Anthology] by Shelli Stevens]: I liked their whirlwind romance!
Gianna (Gia / Georgianna), Cris (Cristobal) & Cai (Mordecai) [from "The Witch’s Champions" by Honoria Ravena]: I would love to read more about this entertaining trio.
Caelen & Dare [from "Charm School After Dark: Lesson 1" [Charm School Series, Book 1] by Lynn Carmer]: I really liked how Caelen and Dare come to terms with their attraction and get together. Then to top it off with the way Caelen tries to find her balance with him and how Dare deals with her eccentricities, it made me want to root for their relationship even more.
