Sometimes when life stalls right in the middle of the journey, all it needs is a Kick Start…

Linda Dowling is ready to shake the dust of her bitter divorce off her boots and Kick Start her life into action. She level sets her children, goes back to college, meets a younger man and life starts rolling down the post-marriage highway. Until her old life freezes her new one in mid-cruise. Friends and neighbors in Linda’s suburban paradise do not approve of any divorce, much less one in their midst. They certainly don’t approve of Linda’s new love interest. 

Linda does not want to care, but she spent the last 20 years trying to fit in. It would be crazy to turn her back on the life she so painstakingly built–and her ex so abruptly knocked down–for an untried start-up relationship. Or would it? Linda reroutes her journey and decides to make a detour–including side trips to see her hairdresser, her mother, the homicidal Courtroom Barbie who wrecked her marriage and her suddenly psycho ex-husband–and see where else life might take her. All she needs is courage and a good old-fashioned Kick Start.

Caren is offering a download of Kick Start to one lucky commenter (winners choice of digital format), so be sure to check out her Quick Six responses, and her question for you. It’s a doozy.

1. Alpha, beta or gamma? I’m from a long line of women who can’t resist an alpha male and I am no exception!

2. Blue or white collar hunk? I married a white collar man, but I have a soft spot for the blue!

3. Daytime or nighttime? Daytime. Specifically, EARLY MORNING! Yes, Tawny did run off screaming from my answer! (she’s right… I did) 

4. Sunset or Sunrise? Sunrise (see above). I love the early morning, when the world is just waking up. Plus, there’s coffee. Coffee is the best!

5. Card Games or Board Games? Board games! Especially those involving words, which I tend to be really good at. Though I’m pretty good at strategy games, too. Still have trouble beating my mom at any game. That woman is scary good at games!

6. Boxers or Briefs? I much prefer boxers. Sadly, my DH does not agree.

And Caren’s question for you awesome readers… If your friends got you drunk and you agreed to sing karaoke, which song would you choose? (Mine changes all the time!)

Bio: Caren Crane grew up in Nashville, TN, and as a result does not care for country music. However, she cares a great deal about family, friends and men in boots. She blames her love of reading on a childhood devoid of TV and heavy on amusing oneself. She now lives in North Carolina with her tall, handsome husband and a very chatty and irascible rescue cat. She is sometimes visited by her three grown children, who are busy having wonderful lives and only require: beds during college breaks, food, rides back to school (though a bus ticket will do) and sometimes cash. Which leaves her with lots of time to write funny, heartwarming stories set in her adopted home state, North Carolina.

Me? I had a lot of career dreams, and am pretty ecstatic with the one I ended up with. I thought I’d share my list as a Fave Five, but I couldn’t limit it to only that many.  So, here it is doubled up,  my dream list

 Top Ten Jobs I’ve Dreamed of Having

• Writer (I love it!!)
• Gypsy (long curls and flowing scarves, tarot cards and silvered palms – oh my!)
• Teacher (I was 10, the job came with no superintendent or parents to answer to.  My dolls and bears were fab students.)
• Scrapbook designer (oh, if only!  Patterned paper, embellishments, rub-ons – so much fun.)
• Wall artist (I love painting faux finishes on walls.  Love color, love texture, love paint!)
• Pastry chef (Mmmm mmmmm, good.  I’d be as round as a cream puff, though.)
• Interior designer (up until I realized I’d have to decorate to suit others’ taste, not just mine.  Yikes!)
• Life Coach (A grown up version of my gypsy dream)
• Potter (I adore anything pottery.  My aunt is a gifted clay artist and so inspiring.)
• Writer.  (Yes, I realize it’s here twice, but I really really do love it!!)

What was your dream job–or jobs—when you were growing up?  How about as an adult?

BRASH

Jess Harper is so tired of being good…

Thrust into the dazzle of Burlesque Bombshells, Vegas’s premier dance venue, the small town librarian has no option but to embrace her inner vixen. Especially when blast from her past, sexy Aussie celebrity chef Jack McVeigh is still determined to keep their relationship strictly hands-off.

This time Jess isn’t surrendering without a fight and armed with her hot props and Bombshell moves, Jack doesn’t stand a chance.

When Jess and Jack are sequestered on an island to orchestrate the burlesque wedding of the year, sun, surf and sizzling sex are on the menu!

But will the fiery couple come back for seconds?

Historical or Contemporary?

Contemporary. I’m a ‘live for the moment’ kinda gal.

Your House or My House?

Your house. Due to never-ending deadlines, my house looks like a tip!

Candles or Incense?

Candles. Love the flickering light and ambiance they create. Incense can be smelly!

Fact or Fiction?

Fiction. I love the escapism.

Brains or Brawns?

I’m going to be greedy and say both! But if I had to choose…brains. If the guy has a smart mouth and quick wit, that’s pretty darn attractive.

Print or eBook?

Print, because nothing beats the smell of a new book.

 

Now here’s one for you: Slick suit CEO or faded denim cowboy?

Me?  I’m more of a cozy up at home gal than a big traveler, although I’ve managed to get across the country a couple of times

 I’ve done car trips, I’ve spent plenty of time on planes, been in a helicopter (although it was more an up and down thing than a travel here to there thing) and a cruise ship.  I haven’t teleported yet, although I’d love to.  Nor, sadly, have I traveled by train.  Well, I’ve traveled by BART, which I suppose is a train, a whole lot. But I don’t think it’s the same   So really, the closest I’ve been  been to old-fashioned trains are the ones my husband collects -one that travels around the Christmas tree, and the Hogwarts Express, which visits my daughter’s Precious Moments holiday village *g*  So Midnight Special was a fascinating project to research, and by the end, I really REALLY want to do some train traveling!  I’d want to go with a berth, of course, and the idea of a vintage rail car is so fun!  There are a couple that still run within day-trip distance (gotta drive to take the train in a circle, then drive home, it makes me laugh).

So my summer indulgence is going to be a train trip.  No idea where, but I want to travel by rail.  How about you? Have you done the train?  Would you like to?
