Genres: Historical, Romance
For the first time in her life, Hedley Sinclair holds the keys to her own future. She’s inherited the crumbling Greyson Park, but the disrepair does nothing to dissuade her. No one will ever lock her up again or attempt to take away what’s hers. No one except Rafe Danvers—the charming, fiendish man from Fallow Hall. He’s determined to claim Greyson Park, but if Hedley isn’t careful, he’ll claim her heart as well.
Rafe has every intention of ridding Greyson Park of the conniving Sinclairs, once and for all. The last thing he expects is to find the beguiling Hedley Sinclair—the younger sister of his former fiancée—standing in his way. With drastic measures called for, he plans to marry her off in order to regain control of the estate. The only trouble is, he can’t seem to stop seducing her. Even worse, he can’t help falling in love with her.

Q&A
What are you working on now? What is your next project?
Vivienne: Right now, I’m working on edits for book 3 of The Rakes of Fallow Hall, THE MADDENING LORD MONTWOOD. In addition, I’m putting together a proposal for a new series, researching locations, and compiling historical data. For me, this is the fun part. I love research. I love discovering the characters. I love… well, just about everything about writing. I feel incredibly blessed that I’ve been given this opportunity.
Rumor has it that my next project will be a Christmas novella for an upcoming anthology. I’ll post more details about this to my Facebook page and my blog in the near future. I’m so excited about this new story! During an editing break, I finally came up with the names of these new characters, along with compiling brief sketches and scene ideas. For now, I need to submit those to my amazing editor and see what she thinks.
Thank you for having me here today!

All of the books in this series sound awesome.
My question is: How do you go about choosing your character’s names?
Blessings and Thanks to All.
Hi, Lori!
Great question! Sometimes the names just hit me and I wake up knowing the characters’ names, their story, and everything about them. Other times, I search through baby name books for a name that fits. And sometimes, there will be a quirky family trait that I want to express through their names (for example; the Croft family in FINDING MISS McFARLAND). 🙂
Wishing you all the best,
Viv
Thank you for hosting today! Can’t wait to start this one!
