Firstly, I have to thank Proserpine for
allowing me to guest post on her blog. Real talk - I haven’t ‘known’ her very
long, but in that short time I’ve found her to be full of awesome. I’m glad our
internet paths crossed. So, thank you, Proserpine. I truly appreciate the
opportunity to talk with your readers about Susanne Bellamy’s White Ginger.
Honestly, I don’t have much contact with
an author during a book’s production. As the publisher of Lyrical Press, I’m
behind the scenes - or back of the house - working to expand our reach, grow
our audience, listen to what readers want from a publisher - and from an
author. I’m stressing over trying to predict reading trends so we can have
available to our readership those books they want when they want them, and
basically, do a myriad of other daily tasks such as royalties, non-editing book
production, website changes, etc... And yep, I love being THAT hands on. It
keeps me connected to the house, so even if I don’t personally ‘know’ every
Lyrical author, I can guarantee I know each one by name and can list every one
of their Lyrical books.
I step in during cover creation. If you
venture to Lyrical’s site, you’ll see most of the covers were created by me
(with help from the very talented Valerie Tibbs, as well as the occasional
guest artist). That’s when I get to roll up my sleeves and finally have my chance
to work one-on-one with Lyrical’s authors.
Susanne Bellamy was such a pleasure to
work with. White Ginger is set in Hawaii, a place I’ve always wanted to visit,
so I had the chance to use soft, beautiful pastels against a gorgeous beach
scene. It took me no time at all to create the cover for White Ginger because I
had a pretty good idea of what Susanne wanted when I went into this part of the
project. I also knew how I’d like this work represented. It was just a perfect
cohesion between Susanne and me.
So, without further ado, I’ll step aside
and allow White Ginger to speak for itself.

Sometimes finding a soulmate can be
dangerous.
Dumped by her fiancé and deemed too
predictable, Amelie flees Brisbane for Hawaii, vowing to steer clear of
men…where she fights an instant attraction to a sexy marine biologist who is
busy waging war against a developer.
Arne is fighting a David and Goliath
battle against an unscrupulous company whose resort will damage the reef
protecting his small Kauai town. He recognizes his soul mate in Amelie, but his
efforts to win her trust are thwarted when he becomes a target due to his
anti-development stance.
Although being with Arne could be
dangerous for Amelie, some attractions cannot be ignored. Will he overcome her
resistance and win the battle against those trying to destroy their paradise?
