Author Showcase – Elaine Raco Chase
(A message from Elaine)
I write sassy, sexy, LOL contemporary romance novels. Often they start with “love at first sight”. I was never sure of “love at first sight” until my dad told me he fell for my mom as he watched her chase her dog down the street! I told him that was the silliest thing I ever heard, they hadn’t even said a word to each other. He winked and said “sometimes you just know”…they were married for 57 years. Hubby and I are headed for 43 years this October..he said it was “lust at first sight” – yeah! That works too!
So let’s say “attraction” at first sight and then what reviewers call the “slow burn” are the core of my contemporary romantic comedies. Some more erotic than others, but all with characters that are so believable they’ve received fan mail!
I started my contemporary romance writing career in 1979 – long before eBooks were even a thought anyplace but in a science fiction novel! I was able to get my rights back to all my books and have been happily expanding, enhancing and updating most of my novels.
I’m hard at work updating, expanding and enhancing the rest of my romances – all were #1 bestsellers in print editions. All will be audio books as well.
While I’m known for my romantic comedies – I also have a best-selling mystery/thriller series that I’ll be updating. Roman Cantrell – Nikki Holden made their debut in 1984 – Dangerous Places and then in 1985, Dark Corners. I’ll be turning them into eBooks in the coming months as well and audio books too!
My non-fiction book: Writer’s Digest Howdunit Series: A Writer’s Guide to Writing the Amateur Detective Novel is still available and, I recently learned, is in the FBI Forensic Library in Quantico!
A writer never stops! I’m also working on book number 18…what I hope will be a ‘blockbuster’ mystery called: A Rare Medium Well Done featuring Dani Rossi, a sexy Atlanta lawyer with a lot of secrets to keep from handsome security specialist Mac Stewart. She does not keep secrets from her assistant and BFF Tucker – as he has more than his share of issues and friends that need her help.
Hope you’ll check out my bestselling contemporary romance novels: SPECIAL DELIVERY, VIDEO VIXEN, DESIGNING WOMAN, CALCULATED RISK, DARE THE DEVIL, DOUBLE OCCUPANCY, LADY BE BAD, RULES OF THE GAME, CAUGHT IN A TRAP and BEST LAID PLANS – my updated woman’s fiction novel- probably the very first chick-lit read (1983) and ‘friends with benefits romantic comedy.
Whatever genre I write, my stories are funny, sarcastic, and loaded with fast-paced, bantering dialogue. My books feature confident, strong women – who have a wicked sense of humor and aren’t really looking for a man – until the perfect one appears.

Love this 5 star review for a blurb: “In Double Occupancy, Chase does well by her characters, giving them room in their close-quartered villa to really express themselves and draw the reader into their love story. Their witty banter will have you laughing but their hot and steamy moments will have you begging for more. By isolating her hero and heroine like this, Chase has given the reader the chance to indulge in a R&R too, focusing on the budding relationship between Travis and Casey. Get lost in this story as though you’re resting up in the villa for yourself… I found it pretty hard to put this one down and climb back into the real world, myself! XXX for some smokin’ hot lovin’ and some pretty explicit word choices ahem, Travis.” Read why Travis & Casey have been on THE LIST – FB’s Top 50 Books to read after 50 Shades of Grey for 20 weeks

Merry Christmas, Alex Cross by James Patterson (Book Review)
 |
| Amazon – Hardcover Link |
It’s Christmas Eve and Detective Alex Cross has been called out to catch someone who’s robbing his church’s poor box. That mission behind him, Alex returns home to celebrate with Bree, Nana, and his children. The tree decorating is barely underway before his phone rings again–a horrific hostage situation is quickly spiraling out of control. Away from his own family on the most precious of days, Alex calls upon every ounce of his training, creativity, and daring to save another family. Alex risks everything–and he may not make it back alive on this most sacred of family days. Alex Cross is a hero for our time, and never more so than in this story of family, action, and the deepest moral choices. MERRY CHRISTMAS, ALEX CROSS will be a holiday classic for years to come.
Review:
Once again, James packed a lot of action and suspense into 300+ pages. In the first section of this holiday story, Alex was called to a hostage situation involving a strung out and guilt-ridden dad who was terrorizing his children, ex-wife, her new husband, and a neighbor. There was blood shed but thankfully, no child was physically harmed. Mentally though, they won’t be healing anytime soon which as a parent, broke my heart. I hate to see children in any sort of pain.
In the next two sections, Alex once again took on Hala. You might recognize the terrorist name from “Kill Alex Cross”. I won’t divulge what sinister plot her and her comrades have orchestrated but I will say unorthodox methods were used to thwart their plans. Even Alex couldn’t believe the means taken to gain entail.
Mark your calendars – “Alex Cross, Run” comes out February 18, 2013.
