~ Review ~
This is the second installment in the Atlanta Series and what a great addition it is.  This story focuses on Sage and Connor, Victoria and Leland’s best friends.  When we meet Sage in A Workplace Affair, she abruptly appears on Victoria’s doorstep after her husband leaving her.  But we come to discover throughout the story that Sage’s past is a little more complicated than just her husband cheating. 

Sage is finally enjoying some happiness with the help of Leland and Victoria.  You can see that Sage has started to open herself up to the idea of Connor.  I mean who wouldn’ t like a sexy, protective man who knows his way around a kitchen.

Connor too has been scarred by a cheating spouse and so when they two of them begin their relationship they are both guarded.  Trusting another person is not a task to be taken lightly.  Will Connor and Sage be able to overcome their pasts and find a future with one another?

Guess you are going to have to go grab this book to find out. The story is a quick and enjoyable read.  Isabella throws a few twists and turns in to keep you engaged.  It is not required to have read A Workplace Affair but it would help to familiarize you with the other characters in the story.

~ Author Interview ~
~ What was your inspiration for the Atlanta Affair series?
Isabella: Well, I live just south of Atlanta, so for me, that was an obvious setting. Honestly my characters were the inspiration. All three main friends (Victoria, Sage, and Nick) are all inspired by people in my life. I created all the characters first and then let them create the stories.

What is your writing inspiration?
Isabella: I guess you could say that my daughters are the reason I write. I’m trying to make a better life for them. As far as for the books themselves I use personalities I encounter as well as fantasies to inspire me.

What words of wisdom would you give to those wanting to get into writing or just starting out?
Isabella: Don’t be afraid to ask for help. The indie author community is amazingly supportive. I still have so much to learn, but they are all so willing to help. I’m proud to be included in such an amazing group of people.

Who is your favorite author?
Isabella: That’s a three way tie between Janet Evanovich, Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb, and Iris Johansen

Do you plan to start a new book or series (anything outside of your current work)?
Isabella: Of course I plan to write more after my Atlanta Affair Series, but right now I am focused on “A Wedding Affair” the third book in my series, which will be Nick and Piper’s story. There will be a total of five books in the series.

What would you die without?
Isabella: My daughters

What is your favorite city you like to visit?
Isabella: Out of the places I have been, probably New York

What place do you dream to visit?
Isabella: Ireland, I traced my family back to County Donegal Ireland and would love to go there.

What are you currently working on?
Isabella: “A Wedding Affair” and plans for an untitled stand alone novel.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Isabella: In 10 years I hope to be writing still without having to worry about working a day job. I know most indie authors don’t get that luxury, but I can dream!

What is one thing that no one really knows about you?
Isabella: That I am still technically married. We’ve been separated for 3 years, and still trying to get the divorce.
