5 Things My Heroines Probably Shouldn’t Have Done

by Carmen Falcone

My heroines are women I’d love to meet for lunch. They are smart, humorous, quirky, confident, awkward, fun. They usually go out of their comfort zone—especially if that means helping out their family and friends. They are modern women haunted by the timeless desire of belonging. Loving. Achieving.

Without delay, here are the top 5 things they shouldn’t have done—but they did it anyway, and that brought them one step closer to a sexy, swoonworthy Alpha hero. 😊

1. Kate Crawford from Forbidden Virgin shouldn’t hit on her father’s best friend. But, wait, hear me out… she’s been in love with him for a long time and now she’s legal and working for him. What’s a girl to do? She goes after what she wants and the outcome is super steamy.

2. In A Weekend of Misbehaving, plus size heroine Alice Sommers is caught skinny-dipping at her boss’s pool. Ready for more? Her boss’s (whom she call Mr.B, a hot Italian crabbypants) business partner finds her naked in the pool first. Gosh. So embarrassing!

3. Have you ever wanted to take matters into your own hand? To honor the best friend she lost, Vivian Foster goes against all common sense and sneaks into Javier’s office to look for clues that can connect him to the death of her friend in A Vengeful Affair. Too bad he finds her before she can get ahead, and lots of twists and turns are set in motion.

4. In Kidnapping the Brazilian Tycoon, activist heroine Addie Reed kidnaps a billionaire to convince him not to kick out a native tribe from their land. While this could have landed her in prison, she ends up agreeing to a very unexpected bargain… a marriage of convenience.

5. Accidentally Hooked has a very provocative premise. The heroine, Kika Martinez, pretends to be a prostitute for a week to get the money to save her sister’s life. The catch? She has one exclusive client: Ryan Winters, a striking Australian tourist who’s in Vegas to expose a prostitution ring.

So yes… my heroines keep me busy. But I wouldn’t have it any other way! To learn more about these amazing women please check my Amazon page.

Carmen Falcone learned at an early age that fantasizing about fictional characters beat doing math homework any day. Brazilian by birth and traveler by nature, she moved to Central Texas after college and met her broody Swiss husband--living proof that opposites attract. She found in writing her deepest passion and the best excuse to avoid the healthy lifestyle everyone keeps talking about. When she's not lost in the world of romance, she enjoys spending time with her two kids, being walked by her three crazy pugs, reading, catching up with friends, and chatting with random people in the checkout line. 

She loves to procrastinate, so please indulge her and drop her a line. For more info, visit her website: http://www.carmenfalcone.com

1. Tell us a bit about yourself.

I am Italian and was born in Rome. In my adolescence I spent a meaningful time in USA, Manchester, New Hampshire. For family reasons I came back to Rome, where I ended my classical studies. I’m married with two children and my life has always been full of “duties”, like all mothers have. The house, the husband, the children and an interesting work as functionary in the Educational Field and in cultural exchanges. It was a great effort to manage all this. And in my soul I have always had inspirations that only asked to become stories, but there was never time for that. Until something happened...

2. What inspired you to write your first book?

In 2008 an accident occurred to me and I was motionless for almost two months. My life suddenly stopped and, spending many hours alone in my flat, from which I could see each sunset on the Mediterranean Sea, I started to rethink about my high school time, my friends. I felt that those passions were still alive in me, together with the desperate feelings of that generation. The story came out and I wrote No Steps on the Snow with my left hand, the only one that I could move.

3. How did you come up with the title No Steps On the Snow for your title?

I just thought about our life as to a great expanse of snow, that we trample on during our living, on which we fall in the worst days we live, while we walk and walk. What if, at the end of our way, turning back we would realize that we left “No steps on the snow”?

4. Describe your main character in five words.

Sorry, mean, passionate, mock, naive.

5. What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your books?

An author discovers many surprising things since he/she feels that caress in the soul that is the “inspiration”. What most surprised me is how high an author is able to fly while writing. In fact, I realized that I was inside the scenes and among the characters I was creating, I saw them moving around me and I was myself part of the whole. When I wrote the final chapter of “No steps on the snow”, I wiped my tears without realizing I was crying. Writing is a magic.

6. What is your work schedule like when you're writing?

My work schedule is very simple. I just imagine a situation and start creating something that gets its shape page by page. The truth is that I never know, at the beginning of the story, how it will go on and in which way it will end.

7. Do you have any writing rituals?

Well, for me it’s important to write always in the same place, that is my studio, maybe because from that window I can see the Bay, with its magical scenery. When I need an inspiration I look at the sunset, discovering that each day dies in its own way, like every human being does.    

8. What book are you reading now?

I always read a lot, a book after another. When I was thirteen I read Hemingway’s whole collection. Now I’m reading a book of an interesting Dutch writer, Saskia Noort. The title  is “The Fiver”.

9. Do you have anything specific that you want to say to your readers?

A writer feels he/she has a mission, which is to convey strong emotions and deep feelings to the readers. An author stays hours and hours alone, writing and creating, sometimes forgetting even to eat at lunch or dinner, if the story requires. What is the only reward that an author needs for all this commitment? A smile from a reader that enjoyed reading the book or, as it happened to me, receiving a letter from a reader of No Steps on the Snow:  

“...I want to talk about  my emotions, the ones that your book has caused me. How to start? Perhaps from the feeling that has bound and imprisoned me since the first pages, from that deep sense of authenticity that I felt from the very first lines... I have seen materialized before my eyes the story described, and it didn’t matter if I was sitting on the train or standing on the subway, wherever I was, I could feel the moist air of the Tiber river, the warm rays of the sun, the scent of the sea....”.

A writer needs a return from the readers, that’s his/her only real award.
