                                                                By Nicole Hatfield

​Audrey Green's life was going nowhere fast. She didn't think things could get any worse until a stranger at a door proved her wrong. 

Mistaken for another woman, Audrey is abducted and thrown into a situation she thought possible only in the movies. 

Upon discovering the identity of her gorgeous yet arrogant captor, Audrey is forced to make the hardest decision of her life: Fight for her freedom... or stay and be rewarded. 

A simple choice with a huge reward. 
Easy decision, right? 
Or will her choice and her captor's secret ultimately lead to more danger than she could ever be prepared for?

I bit my lip and moved my hands up his chest towards his neck, encouraging him to continue. I told myself I was only going along with this in hope that it could somehow lead to me being released. I wasn’t closing my eyes to savor the feel of his hands. My increased breathing had nothing to do with over a possible kiss.
 The hands resting on my hips tightened and his arms tensed. My stomach did a small flip and I licked my dry lips, waiting for him to close the last few centimeters between his mouth and my own. I opened my eyes just enough to see him through my lowered lashes. He was watching me, his impassive expression had cracked just enough that I could not only see the longing on his face but also a touch of confusion. He was the one that started this, what could he possibly be confused about? Had I misread his intentions? I didn’t have any longer to ponder the situation. My feet left the ground. Literally. Not the figurative way caused by an exceptionally good kiss.
  I was upside down, feet in the air, facing the floor and his back side. He had hoisted me over his shoulder to hang like a sack. In the few moments it took me to register what was happening, Liam had already begun walking. The air was pushed out of my lungs, by the shoulder pressed into my stomach, with his every step.
"What are you doing?"
I slapped at his back and shrieked in indignation. I was able to get a rather nice blow to land somewhere near his kidney and he paused only long enough to let his hand come down with a loud thwack on my butt. I stopped my struggles instantly when the sting of his slap registered. He spanked me! Something he was going to pay dearly for as soon as my feet touch the ground again.​

When I signed up for this blog tour and was given the option to do guest posts, I thought “Sure, I can do guest posts, no problem!” Because in my head I am witty, intelligent, and say amazingly insightful things that everyone wants to read. Then reality hit.

Apparently, I severely over estimated my writing ability and after 4 days of non-stop brain storming, I’ve got nothing. Unless, of course, you all want me to talk about the soundtrack that helped me write my book? No? I didn’t think so. Anyway, I have so much respect for bloggers who can do it on the daily! 

Silver Dagger was amazing enough to give me topics. This will make it super easy, right? I just have to tell you something quirky about myself. 

This is the part where I sit at my kitchen table and ponder over the last 31 years of my life. There has to be something quirky about me. I’m a writer, after all. Aren’t writers and artists supposed to be quirky? It’s like a requisite to live the writer life. By the way, my soundtrack for this blog is the Jeopardy melody that lets me know I’m running out of time and I need to say something before everyone decides I am neither brilliant nor funny and Silver Dagger starts losing followers. Aaaahh, THE PRESSURE!

Here goes nothing. I, ladies and gentleman, am an expert on all things mermaid. That statement is totally not a lie based on the fact that mermaids are not real and there is no way for you all to fact check. Go ahead ask me anything. I could totally write an encyclopedia on everything I know about mermaids. Probably.  

Take this for example, a very little known fact about mermaids is that the reason they prefer salt water to fresh is that their natural enemy is the common mallard who tend to frequent fresh water. See? Expert.

I bet you never expected such a quirky, and totally legit, personality trait. Am I right? 

In conclusion, mermaids are awesome, majestic, and really weird if you think about it. I mean, how did they come into existence? Of course, I know the answer but, unfortunately, that is a blog for another day.

 You can reach out to me with all your mermaid questions, or enthusiasm over my book, at facebook.com/nkhbooks or on twitter @Author_Nicole_H

What's a Mermaids favorite food?

Most people think that a mermaid's favorite food would be shellfish or other seafood. That would be a logical guess because, well, they live in the sea.

Those people are wrong and should be ashamed of judging a person/mermaid with out truly getting to know them. Stereotyping is not nice.

It actually depends on the mermaid but I'm pretty sure the majority would agree with me when I say the answer to this question is Chipotle.

Why aren't there any mermaid Pokemon?

That is a great question. Unfortunately, I am a mermaid expert and not a Nintendo or Pokémon expert. I suggest you write a letter to them and demand what we all want. A mermaid pokemon.

For the record, contrary to what you might think, a mermaid pokemon would not be a water type. They would need to invent a new type. Something along the lines of Magical type and their best attack would involve throwing glitter at their enemy. It would win everytime because there is nothing that beats glitter. Not even a vacuum.

It's stated that you wrote your book chapter by chapter on an Internet forum. Did the responses to individual chapters help guide the book in your intended direction, or did this method of continuous feedback pull your writing into a new direction?

The encouragement I received on the forum helped me accomplish finishing the book but didn't necessarily shape it. However, there were a few individuals that can take direct credit for helping me through brainstorming sessions as well as a few cameos by close friends that kept me motivated. :)

Do you think I'm pretty?

Could I be a mermaid? Please advise.

You're definitely gorgeous. Probably. But you don't have to be pretty to me a mermaid. Look at manatees.

The only thing you need to be a mermaid is a tail instead of legs. Do you have that? You might need gills too. You know, if you want to actually live in the water they would be useful.

Good Luck!

I don't have a tail 😭 Either do my cats. I guess we can't be mermaids.

Where do mermaids originate and what language do they speak?
Your responses fascinate me!

Mermaids are the sons and daughters of the Greek God Poseidon. Their country of origin is New Zealand. Most people think New Zealand is the land of sheep but they're wrong. New Zealand is actually mermaid infested.

Their language depends on their geographic location just like everyone else but their universal language would just sound like bubbles under water to us.

I absolutely LOVE your answers! Thanks for stopping by my site so much with the awesome responses! Here's a question I have -
What are the more common colors for a mermaid? Are they solid colored or do they have stripes and spots like some fish?

Thank you for hosting me! I had so much fun!

Mermaids are like snowflakes. There are no two exactly the same. Even the ones with the Snowflake designs on their tails. The only exception to this rule is royalty.

Rulers are picked solely based on the specific pattern they are born with. The pattern looks oddly similar to the planters peanut guy. Mermaids love peanuts.

I'm greatly impressed by Nicole's knowledge of mermaids. So far she's been 100% correct. We do like to have a bit of mystery about us though. I hope she doesn't give away too many of our secrets.

Don't worry, your most treasure secrets are safe with me! Until I figure out how to turn then into a book, anyway. 😉
