Push
Nineteen eighty-four brought us Like a Virgin, we learned who we are going to call in case of a
ghost emergency, and we got the pleasure of getting loose feet with Ren in Footloose. In a little town in Florida,
Jacqueline, Jackie, Vander and Ron Eaton are falling in love.
If you ask Ron it is the best love story ever told. Even
though it was at a fast pace, Ron and Jackie got everything they could have
ever wanted. There were a lot of elements pushing them in different directions,
but they made it out at the end closer than ever.
Telling their story brings back good memories for Ron and
Jackie, and their kids get to learn more about the love they were made from.
Now that both have fallen in love, they can learn from their parents’ story.

Interview With J Lee:
1.
Can you tell us a little
about your books?
My books are a series called The Barrelhouse series, which
centers on a club/bar that is a family owned business. The first book is Dee’s
he has a band that plays at the club. The second is Grant’s book; he’s the
owner of the club. The novella is the story of Grant’s parents, Ron and Jackie,
it explains a little about how Ron inherited the club. There are tattoos, sarcasm,
jokes, and some suspense in most of the books.
2.
When did you know you
wanted to write a book?
My mom always tells me when I was younger I’d always
tell her that I was going not write a book when I got older. As with most
dreams when we are younger it took a back seat. About five years ago my husband
jokingly said “You read so much you should try and write your own book.” I was
nervous but I tried it and feel in love with writing. I had some writing experience
from college so it helped out a little but for the most part I had no clue what
I was doing.
3.
How did you choose the
genre you write in?
I love romance so naturally I’ve read a lot in the genre.
When I decided to write I did a lot of research, somewhere I read to write in a
genre you love and that you’re comfortable with, so I picked romance. I had originally
set out to do dark romance but somehow it’s more romantic comedy with suspense thrown
in.
4.
How do you pick your
book covers?
I have a problem with buy covers before I even sit down to write
the books to go along with them. Most of the time I choose covers that speak to
me or that make me think of the stories I have in my head, even if there in the
very early stages.
5.
Do you have a favorite
spot to write?
I don’t really have a favorite spot. I don’t have an office so I
normally end up wherever is convenient that day. I normally write in my
bedroom, on the porch, or in the living room. I don’t really need quiet because
I listen to music so if someone is talking it doesn’t bother me.
6.
What is a usual writing
day like for you, how is it structured?
It’s not structured at all. When I first
started I tried to make it structured but it didn’t go well. When I tried to
have structure the voices stopped and it was hell trying to get the stories
out. Now I just go with what is coming to me. I always outline before I write
so I know where the story is going, besides that it’s just letting the story
talk to me.
7.
If you could spend 24
hours as a fictional character, who would you chose?
Man this is a really hard
question. There are so many I’d love to be but I’m going to pick Alice Cullen
from Twilight. I have always loved reading but I stopped as an adult until I
read Twilight. After reading that book I remembered why I loved reading so much,
then started to read everything I could. Alice is my favorite character from
that series.
8.
What are writing
projects are you currently working on?
I have just finished the third book in
the Barrelhouse series, Broken. This is the story that my readers have been anticipating
the most. It’s Zaylee and Bryson’s story and has been building in both of the
previous books. Zaylee is Grant’s sister and part owner in the club. I’m also working
on a book that won’t be part of this series it is a romantic comedy called Ink
Diaries. Both the covers and blurbs for these books will be released very soon.
