Hello Marie and welcome to FAR. We are really pleased to have you with us today. Readers really want to learn more about Marie Rochelle and her books.
We are in a New Year and I hope yours is off to a great start. Why don't we begin by you telling us a little about Marie?

I don't know what to say. Hmmmm….I've been a fan of interracial romances for a while I loved reading the romance between the couples and decided to give it a shot. I never dreamed fans would embrace me the way the have. I'm so happy that readers out there enjoy my books.

Can you tell us about your latest release?

My latest release is All the Fixin' released through www.phaze.com. Here's the blurb:

Ever since Shea Anderson laid eyes on hazel eyed hunk Craig Clark Evans she had longed to feel his lips pressed against her-but that would never happen, because Craig hated her from the moment he met her at his aunt's house. His dislike for her only grew after his aunt left her as the sole owner of her company 'Luscious Lips.'

Craig Clark Evans is determined to uncover how Shea tricked his dying aunt into signing over all the stocks of the family business to her and not him, but every time he looks into her dark eyes his desire for her grows and other more pleasurable thoughts enter his mind.

However it doesn't matter how much he might want the ebony goddess in his bed he plans to do whatever it takes to get his family business back no matter the cost. Will Craig come to his senses before it's too late and Shea's love for him is gone forever in…..?

All the Fixin'

What is your favorite time to write?

I love to write in the morning or late at night. I think my books flow better then, but however when my characters want me to write I write. *SMILE*

What would you like to accomplish with your writing career?

I would love to be able to have a writing career for a very long time and be placed on books shelves like Books-A-Million, Borders and more.

Yes I do. I'm working on a new series called Tycoon's Club. The first book is almost completed.

I usually hand write my books and then type them into the computer after I'm finished unless a story really hits me and then I sit in front of the computer and work on it.

Sometimes I do a little of both.

Is your work area neat or cluttered?

A mixture, it depends on the story that I'm writing about.
