Hello, everyone! Victoria Blue and Angel Payne here, saying hello once more!
We're the team behind the
SECRETS OF STONE romance
series, with Book 4,
NO
MAGIC MOMENT, newly released!
In all of our books, but especially with Michael and Margauxโs journey, we love
to explore all the โuniqueโ details of our characters' lives, including the
day-to-day personality traits that make them tick.
A lot of our readers ask where we come up with such interesting quirks for the
Stones and their friends--and we often say we draw on a lot of the weirdness
from our own lives. Over the years, as friends, we've learned a lot of these
things about each other, and we thought you'd might have fun taking a peek at
our weirder sides, as well.
We like to call this... "Guilty Pleasures with Victoria and Angel". We hope you
enjoy! How many do you agree with? What are your own guilty pleasures?

Secrets of Stone
#4
Abracadabraโฆ
My name is Margaux Asherโand Iโm in love.
Crazy, right? Me, the girl who grew up in the lap of luxury and the shadow of
cynicism, is now head-over-heels for an apple farmerโs son who rocks my world
and steals my breath. Heโs seen the woman beneath the princess, and loves meโfor
me. Trouble isโฆhe wants all of me. But how can I commit that to him if I donโt
know who โmeโ is? There are pieces missingโand not just mine. Until Michael
opens up and shares all of himself, weโre a great opening explosion, but not a
lasting magic tale.
Donโt look at the man behind the curtainโฆ
My name is Michael Pearsonโand Iโm in love.
Margaux is the fire of my dreams, the fulfillment of my fantasies and the
woman whoโs asked the impossible. When your past has been hell, how is it
possible to walk through it again? But fighting it isnโt an optionโespecially
when the ghosts rise up and battle back. Especially when fate issues an
ultimatumโbattle back, or lose her forever. Can I do it? Is love enough to
change a personโs soul, or will our magic become a forgotten moment for us both?

Victoria Blue lives in her own portion of the galaxy known as Southern
California. There she finds the love and life sustaining power of one amazing
sun, two unique and awe inspiring planets and three indifferent, yet comforting
moons. Life is fantastic and challenging and everyday brings new adventures to
be discovered. She looks forward to seeing whatโs next!
USA Today bestselling romance author Angel Payne has been
reading and writing her entire life, though her love for romances began in
junior high, when writing with friends on "swap stories" they'd trade between
classes. Needless to say, those stories involved lots of angst, groping, drama,
and gooey kissing.
She began getting a paycheck for her writing in her
twenties, writing record reviews for a Beverly Hills-based dance music
magazine. Some years, various entertainment industry gigs, and a number of
years in the hospitality industry later, Angel returned to the thing she loves
the most: creating character-based romantic fiction. Along the way, she also
graduated with two degrees from Chapman University in Southern California,
taking departmental honors for English, before writing five historical romances
for Kensington and Bantam/Doubleday/Dell.
Angel found a true home in
writing contemporary-based romances that feature high heat and high concepts,
focusing on memorable alpha men and the women who tame them. She has numerous
book series to her credit, including the Kinky Truth series, the
Secrets of Stone series (with Victoria Blue, to be re-released through
Totally Bound Publishing starting late 2016!), the W.I.L.D. Boys of
Special Forces series, and the acclaimed Cimarron and
Temptation Court series.
Angel still lives in Southern
California, where she is married to her soul mate and lives on a street that
looks like Brigadoon, with their awesome daughter and Lady Claire, the dog with
impeccable manners. When not writing, she enjoys reading, pop culture, alt rock,
cute shoes, enjoying the outdoors, and being a gym rat.
