Truth, Lies and the Writer
So I thought it would be fun to play the Truth or Lie game.
I’m going to tell you 10 facts about myself, and then you can go to my website, www.meglacey.com or check goggle and type in Meg Lacey and see what blogs I have contributed to, or what articles I’ve written, or www.facebook.com/meglaceybooks and see if I’m telling the truth or—dare I say it—lying! You can cheat by asking me on twitter @MegLaceyBooks
T or F:
1. I am interested in rocket propulsion and am studying to become an engineer.
2. I can find unexpected humor in the most mundane situations.
3. Meg Lacey’s Apple Pie recipe, which you will find at the end of my August release, Something’s Cooking, (Indugence Books, Entangled Publishing) is a bear to prepare. http://amzn.to/16kbNOT
4. I was chosen as a “Woman to Watch” for my first book published by Silhouette (now Harlequin) Books.
5. I have four boys, all quiet and unassuming.
6. Slumgullion is a mixture of cow and sheep internal parts, such as the testicles, tongue and brain and is then stuffed into a stomach and baked. To find this answer you should go to: http://bit.ly/1a4mp3t
7. I often wonder if I know what I am doing.
8. A reviewer who read the first book in my paranormal romance series, “Tales of the Sparrow” once said about the first book, The Sparrow and The Hawk, ‘This is an odd book.’ It’s actually a mix of urban fantasy, black comedy, and a mystery/thriller with a dash of horror thrown in for good measure. Now why couldn’t she figure that out?
9. I take a lazy, easy-going approach to life. (You may want to read my bio to get clues to my character.)
10. I’ve always wanted to be a writer.
If you don’t want to work that hard, and I don’t blame you, or if just find me incredibly boring you can make up your own answers. I’m fine with that approach also. Who knows your answers might be much more interesting than mine. They might be a great motivator for a new story idea. After all, ideas come from everywhere, from everyone and everything. Be sure to tell me about them, okay?
However, for those who are interested I will be posting answers on my facebook page. www.facebook/meglaceybooks
Thanks so much for asking me to be a guest today. I’ve discovered it is harder to think up questions about yourself than I thought. So, from now on, maybe I’ll just stick to writing fiction. Or maybe that’s what I was doing when I created the questions. It’s up to you.
Make time to laugh today. Meg

Tess Banyon is a ‘Martha Stewart’ type of homemaker-guru-marketing-entrepreneur-extraordinaire. Investigative journalist, Josh Farraday is determined to convince the women of America that Tess is too good to be true.
He’s right.
Tess is a marvelous marketer with tons of ideas, but she can’t really cook and has been known to attach herself to a grapevine wreath with her glue gun. Now she’s doing her own TV show, and Josh has been assigned to do a behind-the-scenes story."
Excerpt ~*~
He pressed another kiss on her temple, then her cheekbone before switching to do the same on the other side.
Her eyes drifted closed. All sound stilled as her body leaned toward him as if drawn by a magnet. His arms slipped around her waist. She could feel the corded muscles of his arms trembling slightly, his hands spreading against her, pulling her closer, pressing her against his hard muscles.
She melted against him before looking up to meet his gaze.
His eyes were so intense she shivered, wondering what he was thinking, what he was feeling. They stood like that for a moment, both afraid to move, until Josh cupped her chin with the palm of one hand.
“You’re so beautiful. So tempting,” he murmured. His thumb traced her lips. “The shape of your lips, the way the bottom one is so full and the top has that perfect little bow…that mouth has been keeping me up for many nights. “
“You haven’t been here that long,” she whispered.
“Funny, it seems as if I’ve known you for a long time.” Josh tilted his head, slanting his mouth across hers. Gently at first he stroked his tongue over her lips, teasing, before finally opening them. His tongue slipped inside to explore, to soothe, and finally, to electrify.
