Second Chance at Love Blog Tour
Getting to Know Victoria Wells
If you had six months with no obligations or financial constraints, what would you do with the time?
I would travel with my family, write, knit and crochet. Having a family, working full-time and doing community service don’t leave me with a lot of time to do the things I really enjoy. I have to really make time to do these things.
What is the one place you would most like to visit in this world?
One day, I don’t know when, I’m going to Tuscany, Italy. I’ve wanted to go ever since I saw the movie Under the Tuscan Sun.
Why did you choose the romance genre to write in, versus say, mystery or suspense?
I made a choice to write romance because I’m a sucker for the happily-ever-after. I enjoy writing stories about black folks falling in love and committing their hearts and lives to each other. Too often we’re not portrayed as being capable of loving each other.
About the book 
As a young widowed mother, love is the last thing on Karen Johnston’s mind. Her busy life revolves around caring for her two young children, which becomes even more challenging when her children begin to show signs of needing a father in their lives. Just as things start to go haywire in the Johnston household, in walks ruggedly handsome Dominic Peretti, Jr. The attraction between the two is undeniable. Karen spends restless nights dreaming of his touch. As he begins to crowd every space of her life, will she give in to her sensual desires? Or will she sacrifice her desires for the sake of her children?
Dominic ‘Dom’ Peretti, Jr. isn’t looking for a serious relationship when he accepts the task of surrogate father to Karen’s children. But he can’t get the ever so lovely and sexy woman out of his mind. His intention is to have nothing more than a hot, steamy fling to satisfy his appetite. However, as he gets a taste of life with the Johnstons, he has a decision to make. Will he give love a chance? Or will he walk away, leaving Karen and her children in harm’s way?

Guess what she said? “How about Italy?” LOL How funny is that?

Hi, Victoria and Shelia! Victoria, your answer to why you write romance is identical to mine. I love the happy ending and seeing us portrayed in other than the stereotypical light that shines on us too often. Continued success to you, and keep on writing great stories.

This is a wonderful blog tour and I am learning so much more about Victoria.
I am glad that you chose to write romance as we can never be surrounded by too much love.

Victoria,
Its great you are taking French. Italian and French are both romance languages so its all good. I am reading Key to My Heart so I will not read the synopsis for Second Chance at Love. Will read that in a few days. Love your books so glad you joined Ms Bev’s (Jenkins) group.
[Reply]
Hi Rhea, thanks for stopping by. Poor Nick…he can’t catch a break! LOL I’m working gettiing the new book to print.
Hey Mona, hope you’re enjoying Ava and Langston’s story. I’m glad Ms. Bev invited me to join her group when I met her in Chicago at RSJ 2008. Unfortunately I’ve been in shadow dance mode due to my busy schedule.
Thanks for stopping by!
