Please welcome today's guest, Author Erin Stevenson. She released her latest title, Undercover Dog Dad, in December 2021. I hope you enjoy my interview with Erin.
--The title of your book is Undercover Dog Dad. Do you have any animals?
Yes, I have a dog, Macy. She is a border collie mix, and also has some Mini Aussie. Technically she is a "pandemic dog" since I got her in October of 2020, but I had been looking for a dog for well over a year prior.
The dog on the book cover, Watson, belongs to my oldest son and his family. I've known him for about ten years! He is a total sweetie.
Our family is pretty dog crazy. Together, we have nine dogs and several others that have crossed the rainbow bridge. Most of the "minor character" dogs in the book are based on some of these family dogs.
--How many books have you written?
I just released my 9th book, and the 10th will be out on May 13, 2022.
--What made you want to become a writer?
I've been writing my whole life! I was editor of my high school newspaper, have an academic background and did a lot of writing in that phase of my career, I still do a little writing for a magazine, and take on editing gigs whenever I can find the time. I made the shift to writing fiction in 2014.
Since 2014, Erin Stevenson has been writing faith-based romance novels for Pelican Book Group and Winged Publications. She is a member of ACFW (American Christian Fiction Writers), where she has served as a judge and was a 2021 Carol Award finalist.
Grounding her novels in reality, Erin crafts characters who encounter events and hardships familiar to all of us. Her inspirational writing will take the reader down paths of both joy and pain, but always highlighting God’s faithfulness.
Book Blurb:
Mallory Morris loves Autumn Springs, Tennessee, and fall is her favorite season of all. It’s filled with crisp, cool evenings, bonfires, football, and lots of visits to the dog park with her canine posse. But a rash of home burglaries is casting a pall over her hometown, and her cousin the sheriff isn’t making any headway in solving them. But all that changes when she meets a scruffy stranger at the dog park, who clearly doesn’t like dogs!
Garrett Alexander agreed to come to Autumn Springs from Arizona to help his old friend solve a puzzling case. What he didn’t bargain for was becoming a temporary dog dad, gaining a beautiful partner with the cutest Southern twang, and having sweet tea constantly pushed on him (the abominable stuff!).
Their resolve to keep things professional changes quickly when they put their heads together—figuratively and then literally. But his life is in Arizona, and hers in Tennessee. They both yearn for love, but a series of misunderstandings puts an end to their dreams. How can they reach their happily-ever-after with 1,600 miles between them?
