Rachel Carrington is a successful business woman and multi-published author, she is the ideal independent woman we all want to be.

Motivated, adventurous, and with a wicked sense of humor, she brings us stories we not only dive into but hate to see end.

Rachel writes dark paranormal and magical fantasies mixed with wizards, witches, and elves. From mystical worlds to the dark and dangerous corners of other universes, her books take you outside the bounds of reality and into the world where your imagination can take flight.
 

Not Her Mister Right

Emma Slade hasn’t met her Mr. Right yet, and being a voluptuous woman, she believes her options are limited. So she decides it’s time to settle for Mr. Okay, and come hell or high water, she was going to find him. Then a motorcycle-riding lawyer comes riding into her hometown, and her plans go awry. Of course, he’d never have anything to do with her…at least that’s what she thinks. But the more she pushes Jake Ryder, the harder he pushes back.

Jake has always been partial to women with curves a man can hold onto, and the moment he sees Emma Slade, his partiality becomes a magnet. He wants her, plain and simple. Yeah, he was only supposed to watch her, make sure she stays out of trouble, but if she gets into any, he wants to be right there with her.

Favorite Q & A?

What is your favorite color?

Red because it's spicy.

What is your favorite quote?

This is always a tough question for me because I have favorite quotes for each subject. This is my favorite for beauty: People are like stained glass windows: they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within.
 ~ Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

But I have favorites for success, motivation, determination, loss, money, love, etc. And it would take up waaay too much space to list them all.

What is your favorite pastime?

I don't just have one. I love to cross-stitch, go to movies, put jigsaw puzzles together, curl up on the sofa with a good book, watch a good movie at home, go out with my friends, shop for anything from home decor to clothes, and surf the net.

What music do you listen to?

All different kinds from Josh Turner to Uncle Kracker.

What is your favorite kind of movies?

Romantic comedies like The Wedding Date or high-powered science fiction like Independence Day.

What books do you like to read?

Paranormal romance and non-fiction.


What are your favorite scenes to write?

Romantic love scenes—the ones where the hero/heroine says that one line which sticks with the reader long after the last few words of the book are read.

What advice can your give for an aspiring writer?

Remember that a rejection of your work is not a rejection of you. Take that rejection as a challenge to make your work shine and yourself a better author. If you really want to be a writer, you have to do what it takes to improve your abilities, be willing to learn, be willing to change, and most of all, be willing to devote the time it takes to write every day.
