New Adult Book Club discussion

Joining us for the next two weeks is Kandi Steiner. She is the best selling author of books such as Legacy, On the Rocks, Never Let Go and many many more.

Leave your questions about books, angst or whiskey for Kandi below!

Do you ever think of revisiting couples from books like Revelry or On the Way To You for maybe a short “what are they up to now” story? (Those are my top 2 favorites of yours.)

Hi Kandi! Where do you get your ideas for your books and how do you flesh them out into a full story?

Hi, have any of your characters been inspired by someone in your life?

Which character and/or book setting has been your favorite?

Hi! What are you currently working on?

What is your favorite genre to read and write about?

Who are a few of your favorite romance authors and if you could only recommend one angsty book to first time romance readers (and it can't be one of yours lol ;P), what would it be?

Hi Sydney! Great question. I get my ideas from living life -- traveling, talking to strangers, going for long hikes or drives, listening to friends and family. I soak up every story I come into contact with and also try to sit still and listen to what the world wants to tell me.

I usually wake up frantic in the middle of the night with a book idea, scrambling for my phone to jot it down in my notes section. From there, the characters will start speaking to me, and when they get too loud to ignore, I write for them. <3

Hi Ann! Many have! I think there's a little bit of me and a little bit of my friends and family and acquaintances in all my books. <3

This is impossible! But, if I had to choose, two of my favorites were Cooper and Emery from On the Way to You. And the setting of that book, too!

Hi Nicole! I just finished edits for Say Yes, coming June 24. I'm also working on Greek, the final installment of PSU! That comes out in late August.

Hi Katherine! Definitely romance, though I've always wanted to write a psychological thriller. One day!

Oh gosh I have so many! Staci Hart, Karla Sorensen, Brittainy C. Cherry, B.B. Easton, Fiona Cole, Jessica Hawkins, Alessandra Torre, Colleen Hoover, Tarryn Fisher, Kennedy Ryan, Cora Carmack, S.C. Stephens just to name a few!

Definitely the Thoughtless series by S.C. Stephens. Still one of my all time favorites!
