This week author Pippa Roscoe is sharing her Favorites, Frustrations & Fabulous! She also shares about her debut book, Conquering His Virgin Queen.
Mills & Boon author Pippa Roscoe lives in Norfolk near her family and makes daily promises that this will be the day she will leave the computer and take a long walk in the countryside. She can’t remember a time when she wasn’t dreaming of gorgeous alpha males and misunderstood heroines. Totally her mother’s fault of course—she gave Pippa her first romance to read at the age of seven! She is inconceivably happy that she gets to share those daydreams with her readers.

Favorites
The feeling of warmth. (Right now, mostly likely because it's freezing, wet and miserable!). So my little woodburner making beautiful crackling noises, throwing out delicious heat and casting the room in the kind of burnt orange glow that can only be seen with a real fire is most definitely a firm favourite at the moment! I've come to realise that I write almost fifty times better in the warmth - which in theory is wonderful, but in reality my fair skin as been known to burn in the shade, so I love that Goldilocks combination of just the right amount of heat in just the write amount of shade.
Frustrations
Bad showers and awful coffee. There is nothing worse than getting into a shower first thing in the morning only to receive a luke warm drip of water that could barely soak a fly, let alone half the hair on my head! And the horror that is a cup of coffee not (as the wonderful Tom Waits said) strong enough to defend itself is too cruel. But to explain...
While this may seem fairly superficial, I need these to things to become human in the morning - it is for the safety of others,not myself, I assure you. So yes, my greatest frustration a hot powerful shower and a strong cup of coffee.
Fabulous
The moment when you're able to put any self conscious concerns aside, and allow yourself to feel FABULOUS. Learning to love your body, the power in it, the strength, no matter the size, stretch marks, the bumps, lumps or skinny bits - what ever your shape, size, colour of your skin, loving the health and happiness in the way you are, you move and you feel is... fabulous.
Conquering His Virgin Queen
Six months ago, their marriage ended…
He has twelve hours to claim her back!
Odir Farouk is about to become king—but to take his throne, he needs his errant wife by his side! Odir denied his hunger for Eloise, refusing to compromise power for passion.
