learning
Vince Wilshire, enchanted with Sylvia, is more than willing

again?
Excerpt from book:
The door clicked open.
Wrapping his hand around the handle to keep from reaching
for her, Vince Wilshire shoved the door wide. "Are you ready for
this?"
Her face mere inches from his, he noticed a brief flash of
panic in her eyes before Sylvia Donovan lifted her chin and stepped through the
entrance. "Nothing I haven't seen before. Or probably won't see
again."
He understood she meant the task of doing a job, but for
some reason his brain registered the sexual implications of the comment.
"Oh, man, you're brutal. Some things you know get better with age.”
Matching his steps to hers, he wrapped an arm around her
shoulder and leaned in close. He whispered beside her ear, "It's all a
matter of knowing how to use what you've got."
She shrugged and shifted away from him, eyeing him with a
raised brow. "Yes and some people are amateurs, Mr. Wilshire. You, I take
it, are an old pro who knows how to wield your sword with the best of
them."
Laughter bubbled up into his throat. He marveled at her
sassy tone and didn't relinquish his grip. "I must admit I’m very good at
a few chosen tasks."
Now more about Tina, CFO's Affair and her books,,,,
Tina Gayle grew up a dreamer and loved to escape into the
world of books.
After years of working in the business world doing a variety
of jobs, she decided to try her hand at writing and hope to incorporate the joy
of being a mother into her books.
Currently working on a series about four executive wives,
she is excited about combining elements of women fiction with the passion of
romance. The first three books, “Marketing Exec’s Widow”, “IT
Exec’s Baby” and now “CFO’s Affair” have all been released. The last one will
be out next year.
Married twenty-five years, she and her husband love to
travel and play golf. She can’t wait for
Mike to retire so they can do more of both.
Read the first chapter of any of her books by visiting her
website.
Tell us about your book:
Sylvia is a woman who has allowed life to beat her down.
After her husband died, she reclaims herself by losing weight and trying new
things. She’s brassy and harsh at time, but she deeply cares about her friends
and family. I believe readers can related to all the heartache in her life and
empathize with how she has to come to terms with the past and make a future for
herself.
How long did it take to write the book?
Six months
What inspired you to write the book?
I’ve gone through the pain of sending my last child off to
college and understand what it takes to let go.
Talk about the writing process. Did you have a writing
routine? Did you do any research, and if so, what did that involve?
I work eight to ten hours a day. My writing schedule is to
write three to four hours at the beginning of the day. Then I log onto the
internet and write up blogs, twits, handle marketing demands and check email.
In the afternoon, I return to my writing and edit my manuscript.
The main research I did for the book involved blood types.
What do you hope your readers come away with after reading
your book?
The joy of letting go of the past and moving on to the
future.
