Welcome to Wynter Daniels. Her new release is out today!



Who are you as an author – what is your central theme?

Hmm. That's a tough one. I write lots of different types of stories and don't have just one theme. I guess if I had to sum up the theme most of my books it would be that one's heart can heal after difficult times and find new life with another wounded heart. I love stories where one or both main characters resurrect their desire to love. I write under two names, but Wynter is the saucier wench!

What part of the world do you hail from, and what is winter predicted to be like?

I live in sunny Central Florida and this winter will hopefully be milder than last year. Usually the temperatures hover in the 50 – 70 degree range with a few days at or near freezing (in the dead of night). I really appreciate the mild temps since I am originally from Long Island and spent the first two years of college in the Adirondacks – BRRRR.  That experience led me to finish college in Florida!

What is going to put the “merry” into your holidays this year?

Well, it's been a pretty good year for me. I've had 9 book releases and I signed with an agent. I'm thrilled to have my family with me around me. That makes everything merry.

Which of your books would you give as a gift this year and why?

That depends on who I am giving it to I think one of my favorites would have to be Tropic of Trouble. I rewrote that one several times and the protagonist happens to be a corrections officer, which my husband is.

Tell us about Rude, Nude and Socially Unacceptable.

Which of your characters needs a gift the most and why?

Great question! In Rude, Nude and Socially Unacceptable, I'd say the heroine, April needs something special. She's a hardworking hairdresser who is just starting out. She tries to send money home to her father to help out.

How would your main character decorate their home for the holidays – and what holiday would they celebrate?

April would celebrate Christmas with a down-home flair. Coming from a rural area in North Florida and being of modest means, she'd likely string popcorn into garlands for the tree. But she'd have something very different in mind for her new man, Nick. She'd probably drape his motorcycle with tinsel and meet him at the door wearing a red g-string and matching stilettos. She'd have a stick-on bow on each breast and she'd be holding a riding crop. She's definitely been naughty this year!

When someone reads your book, what feeling or knowledge do you want them to have at the end?

First of all, I want them to get all hot and bothered all the way through to the end. But I also hope they come away with a sense that there's someone out there for everyone, regardless of the heavy emotional baggage they may carry. They've found that one person who scratches all their itches, including the kinky ones.

Tell us more!

Thanks for asking! Today happens to be release day for Rude, Nude and Socially Unacceptable. Here's a little about it:

Biker Nick Ramos needs help transforming his image. He hires his new hairdresser to make over his life, but he has an ulterior motive. He wants to get April into his bed.

April Conway is wary of all bikers since one destroyed her family. But Nick awakens secret desires she never knew she had. Betraying her family isn’t an option, but she is powerless to resist Nick’s erotic pull.
