Stocking Stuffers
by Erin McLellan Series: So Over the Holidays #1 Publisher: Erin McLellan (self pub) Release Date (Print & Ebook): Nov. 1st, 2019 Sasha Holiday is so over the holidays after getting left at the altar last Christmas Eve. But as the marketing maven for Lady Robin’s Intimate Implements, she’s stuck not-so-merrily pitching naughty toys at a romance book club’s Christmas party. Her loathing of the yuletide only intensifies as a snowstorm rolls in and traps her at the Winterberry Inn. Stranded with her is Perry Winters—a hot bearded book club member trimmed in flannel and tattoos. Perry’s a romantic with an unerring belief in the magic of the season, and he recognizes a Christmas miracle when he sees it. Brave, smart, and confident—Sasha Holiday is a gift. And the gifts keep coming when she suggests they pass the time with some no-strings fun. After all, she has a big bag of toys that would make even Santa want to stay in bed on Christmas Eve. But the frisky festivities turn complicated as feelings spark between Sasha and Perry. Perry wants to see Sasha once the snow clears, but Sasha is reluctant to take the relationship sleigh ride again. Perry will have to show her that love is more than just a holiday feeling. Our Exclusive Q & A With Erin ~
Q: What comes first, the plot or characters?
EM: Normally, the first thing that comes to me is an idea for a scene or an image of a scene. From there, I think about what types of characters would make sense within that scene. Then I let the characters run the show. I’m very much a pantser not a plotter. Q: Does one of the main characters hold a special place in your heart? If so, why? EM: Sasha Holiday is very special to me. She’s bisexual, funny, brash, independent, and adventurous. It was fun to write a heroine who takes charge, has complete control over her sex life, and isn’t shy about it. She’s the type of heroine I love to read, so it was a treat to get to write her. Q: What was the inspiration for the story? EM: I had an idea that I wanted to write a heroine who was really into sex toys. That was basically the basis of the whole thing. The idea to set it during Christmas and at a Christmas-themed B&B came later on. At that point, my goal was to write the sweetest, cutest, most Christmassy erotic romance I could. Q: What is the future for the characters? Will there be a sequel? EM: There are going to be more books in the So Over the Holidays series. Sasha and Perry will appear in the next two books, but they aren’t the main characters. I like to imagine that they’re off living their best and craziest life, getting up to all kinds of trouble together, in and out of bed. As of right now, the next book in the series will be about Benji, Sasha’s little brother. Praise For Stocking Stuffers ~
