#AuthorInTheSpotlight Lucy Keeling – Just Friends in Vegas – @Lucy_K_Author @ChocLitUK

In a nutshell, what is your latest book about?
I can’t wait for The Hating Game to come out, but I don’t know… I mean, sometimes the book is better you know? I’d hate to be disappointed, but then again I’ve watched the Bridgerton Series on Netflix like twice so…
Ohhhh – well. Erm. I might have a well-earned nap haha. I’m thinking cakes and take away with the family in the evening but in the day I’ll be thanking all the fabulous people such as yourself for inviting me on their blog posts, or reviewing my book, or just generally shouting about my book. I will always be so grateful to reviewers and bloggers for spreading the word.
I wrote my first picture book when I was 8 I think. It was about giant ice monsters. Ever since then I’ve bought new stationery and started a new tale. Nowadays I do all of my writing on my laptop but yeah, I can’t really stop (and despite the laptop I still purchase ALL the pretty notebooks). Having said that it’s only in the last five years that I’ve actually found my stride and wrote full length novels. But that’s a story for another day.
How can people follow you or connect with you on social media?
As they immerse themselves in the glamorous and mysterious world of ‘The Suits’, growing closer as a result, Smithy has to question whether his time with Mya is destined to become a case of ‘what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas’ ….
From the back of the book
I always do. I cannot keep myself away. Even if I tell myself to have a couple of weeks off, I soon start itching to write something again soon enough, or at the very least planning out possible ideas.
Really sorry but you’re lucky I got it down to three haha.
But yes I’m from Manchester and I do my writing around my full time job and two mini-monsters that me and my other half are somehow in charge of.

What’s your favourite book you’ve read in the past few months? Or favourite three if you really can’t choose!
But also on Twitter: @Lucy_K_Author
Well, I saw Choc-Lit had a ‘Search for a Star’ competition and I thought why not*. The winner was actually the amazing Christine Penhall, she is incredible and I more than happy to be her second, and competition runner-up.
When Mya is with Smithy, it feels like her eyes are constantly rolling. His wheeling and dealing charisma charms everyone but her. Well, that’s not strictly true – Mya is only human after all, and there’s no doubt the man is hot with his suits and swagger. It’s just that Smithy knows Mya’s secret, and she’s not sure she can trust him to keep it from their group of friends.
I’ll tell you a secret I CANNOT title a book. So the original title for this was Book 3. Sorry haha.
If you were on Desert Island Discs, what one book would you take with you?
Ahhh – this is SUCH a tough question. Can I not just take my kindle lol. Ok if it was just one then I would want it to be either: The Hating Game by Sally Thorne, or maybe the Magpie Lord by KJ Charles.  
(that was as close to a nutshell as I could get – sorry)
*Please note that whilst it sounds very chill, pressing send on that email was incredibly nerve-wracking.

Hi Joanne, thank you so much for inviting me on your blog, this is so lovely and I’m so thrilled to be here. So hi, I’m Lucy Keeling,  author of sexy romcoms. (I originally typed that as sexy romcom author, but I’m typing this whilst in my PJ’s, covered in crumbs and seconds away from eating more Easter Egg chocolate so…)
What inspired you to start writing?

I’m really looking forward to reading the Intimacy Experiment by Rosie Danon, and next on my Kindle TBR list in Strictly on Ice by Helen Buckley.
I’m mostly on Instagram: @lucy_k_author
