Guest Post & Giveaway LUCKY HARBOR SERIES by JILL SHALVIS @JillShalvis @ForeverRomance

BOOKHOUNDS IS SAD TO SEE THIS SERIES END

Guest Post – Jill Shalvis’ Lucky Harbor Series Wrap Up

Lucky Harbor started with three estranged sisters inheriting a dilapidated inn on the Pacific Northwest coast. It was supposed to be all one book, in fact. But I never could manage to contain it in one story so I split it into three, one love story for each sister. My goodness that was fun. It was so much fun, I came up with another trilogy idea. Three strangers stuck alone in a storm in a diner with nothing readily available except a chocolate cake. Hello, chocoholics. I thought it would end there but I’ve never been so happy to be wrong. And so, unbelievably, here I am twelve books later, still as much in love with Lucky Harbor as I ever was. Oh the fun I had coming up with characters and figuring out how to torture them.:) Seriously, I have the best job on the planet.

To celebrate the end of the series, today I’m answering some fan questions about Lucky Harbor.

Probably the most emotional book in the Lucky Harbor series is series second The Sweetest Thing. What’s your favorite scene between Tara and Ford?

When they came face to face with a blast from their past … the daughter they had to give up for adoption when they were both seventeen.

Do you have a favorite title in the Lucky Harbor series?

My favorite title is Head Over Heels. There was something about the way sexy badass sheriff Sawyer Thompson fell so hard for wild Chloe Traeger. He definitely fell head over heels.

If you could spend a week as one of your heroines, who would you want to be and why?

This is a tough one! I tend to torture my characters, you see, and I really really don’t want to go through all the things I put them through! But then again, they each now have a really hot guy in their life, so maybe it would be worth it. Maybe Aubrey from Once In a Lifetime because she was so tough and kind of badass in her own right. That would be fun…

After spending so much time in Lucky Harbor have you given it an unofficial “motto”?
You can leave a pot of gold in your backseat of your car and it won’t get stolen but you can’t keep a secret. 🙂

 

 

Saying goodbye to Lucky Harbor was far more difficult than I imagined. I mean I thought I was ready to leave but as I wrote this last trilogy, It’s In His Kiss, He’s So Fine, and One In A Million, it really hit me. It was over. I was so sad that I wrote a holiday novella. 🙂 I couldn’t help myself! Merry Christmas, Baby (12/2) is my love letter to the Lucky Harbor readers (and a surprise revisit with one of my fave couples) who enjoyed the series and stuck with me for twelve books.  TWELVE books. I still can’t believe it. I’m not sure I’ll ever forget Jax, Ford, Sawyer, Ty, Matt, Josh, Luke, Jack, Ben, Sam, Cole, and Tanner…  Sob!  But I have plenty of new stories to tell, so no worries. I’m still writing the animal series and for those of you who read and loved Then Came You this past summer, Still The One comes out 4/15. And … drum roll please … I’ll have a brand new series coming out in 2015. The first book is written and I’m keeping it under my hat a little bit longer but let’s just say there’s some hot alpha brothers coming your way soon.

    Gosh, it is so sweet of you, Jill, to visit Lucky Harbor one more time for the holidays! I love holiday reads because now that I’m retired and my children all grown with children of their own (and living out of town or state), I have more time for my my fave alone-time habit: reading romances! 🙂 Thanks so much for writing Merry Christmas, Baby. I’m looking forward to reading the closure of your Lucky Harbor series in this way.

    I always enjoy a few holiday reads as we enter this busy season. Will keep an eye out for the new series, hope it will capture our minds like Lucky Harbor.
