Today we have fellow The Wild Rose Press author J.C. McKenzie spotlighting The Shucker's Booktique, her new Lobster Cove series release, with a really fun character interview. J.C. pens paranormal romance which is a favorite of mine, so I bet this is a great read. The entire Lobster Cove series has been really fun. She also has some great prizes to give away!! Enjoy!

Meet George Hamilton from The Shucker's Booktique (Lobster Cove series)
1.) What
is your name?
George Hamilton the third of the Lewiston, Maine Hamiltons.
George Hamilton the third of the Lewiston, Maine Hamiltons.
2.) Can
you give us a little background information about yourself? (For example where you live and what year it
is.)
Obviously, I’m from Lewiston, and
if I didn’t like watching that plump mouth of yours move, I’d take issue with
repeating myself. Next time, I won’t be so understanding.
3.) Do
you have any siblings?
My parents stopped at perfection. They have me. They only need me.
My parents stopped at perfection. They have me. They only need me.
4.) Any
pets? Do they play a large part in your
story?
Why on earth would I let some
mangy, tick-ridden pest into my home for the sole purpose of having to care for
it, feed it, groom it, and pick up its shit? Having a girlfriend and keeping
her ignorant to all the chicks I bang on the side is hard enough.
5.) How
would you describe yourself? (I mean in
terms of personality here.)
I’m very talented and knowledgeable
about the world. I have high expectations and look down on those who can’t meet
them. I don’t like to be disappointed and I like to control all aspects of my
life.
6.) Describe
what your typical day would be like.
I wake up and shower. I expect my girlfriend to have breakfast prepared for me by the time I’m ready to eat. I go to work. I nail my secretary in my office usually around lunchtime. I like to bend her over my desk and then make her pick up all the forms and folders after I’m done with her. After work, I go for drinks with my old frat-buddies. If there’s a chick gagging for it at the club or pub, I’ll give it to her in the bathroom stall. I go home. Dinner better be ready. I usually fall asleep around ten.

7.) What
was your first impression the hero/heroine?
Did it change as you grew to know him/her?
Weak. And perfect to appease my parents. They’ve been nagging me for years to find a good wife and settle down. Willa fit the role. I spent a long time grooming her to be the ultimate, dumb companion. Then she met that guy. The big one with all those ridiculous muscles. Then things went to hell.

8.) If
you could do something forbidden, what would it be? Why?
That’s a silly question. I
already do whatever I want.
9.) What
is your favorite time of day? Why?
The first moment I walk into my office in the morning. I love watching my employees snap to attention. I can almost see their bodies vibrate anxiety and knowing that I cause it…yes, definitely my favorite time of the day.

After her fiancé dumps her and her beloved Aunt Jenny
goes missing, Willa Eklund travels to Lobster Cove with a broken heart to
search for Jenny while running her bookstore. When a mysterious man visits the
Shucker's Booktique on a stormy night drenched in rain and covered in mud,
Willa's heart melts under his stormy gaze. She wants Lon and the answers he may
have, but he also has a secret. Can Willa trust him?
Lon Devlin is a Tempest, a water sprite who can only
take a human form during stormy nights. He rides the waves, lives by the tides,
and nothing can hold him down, not even a beautiful woman. When he visits his
mortal friend, he discovers she's missing and her intriguing niece has taken
her place. He wants Willa, but he also wants answers. What happened to Jenny?
Excerpt from The Shucker's Booktique:
Thump!
Thump! Thump!
No! She
gasped. It couldn’t be. The banging on the front door of the booktique had to
be a figment of her imagination. She couldn’t will Lon into existence. Why
would he come back? Especially if he was involved. Unless…cold ice prickled up
her spine…unless he needed to eliminate her to take care of loose ends.
No.
Crazy thoughts, Willa. He could’ve taken care of her the night
before. No, her heart hammered against her chest for a different reason. But it
didn’t matter. The knocking on the door wouldn’t, couldn’t be him.
Thump!
Thump! Thump!
Could it? She clutched her hot mug in both hands and
turned toward the doorway leading to the bookstore. From the kitchen in the
back room, she had a clear view through the store to the front door, but not who
stood on the other side.
“Willa!” Lon growled. “Wake up and let me in!”
Willa gasped and almost dropped her cup. The tea
sloshed around and some spilled over her hands. It burned, but she didn’t move.
She couldn’t breathe. Somehow the air got trapped inside her throat. Why was he
here? What did he want?
Oh God,
let it be me!

What a fun interview!! I'm going to go check out this series...never heard of it before and it looks like a fun one!
Still laughing out loud... "My parents stopped at perfection"
Fun interview!
Thank you so much for having me! I had a lot of fun writing the interview from George's POV. Obviously he's the villain, and obviously he's incredibly unlikeable!
Thank you Kim and Katie! I'm glad you enjoyed the interview :-)
