Welcome to the Come To Me Quietly Blog Tour!! Today Im so pleased to welcome author A.L Jackson to the blog. We had ourselves a nice chat and the tour is celebrating the release of Come to me Quietly.
I would have to say Jared did. He's a character who has been in my mind for a long time, and I had a vague idea of his circumstances, and over time the story just built around this beautifully broken man.
And...part two: What inspired you to write in the romance genre?
Oh, that one is easy. I read Gone with the Wind when I was in fourth grade. From that day, I've absolutely been in love with the romance genre. I can't imagine writing anything different.
Your main characters feel things so intensely, would you say you're like that?
I would say for the most part I do, but to be honest, I pour so much emotion into my characters that sometimes I just feel numb. That's why it's so important for me to take time for myself and my family so I can stay centered on them, because a lot of times I feel like I'm living in my characters' worlds.
If you could pick a song that encapsulated Come to me Quietly what would it be and why?
It would be Hurt by Johnny Cash. I feel like that song, the words and vibe, fit Jared to a tee.

Oh yes, I totally can see that fitting Jared- he played his character so well with that tortured, so emotional, so sexy vibe.

A.L. Jackson is the New York Times bestselling author of Take This Regret and Lost to You, as well as other contemporary romance titles, including Pulled and When We Collide.
She first found a love for writing during her days as a young mother and college student. She filled the journals she carried with short stories and poems used as an emotional outlet for the difficulties and joys she found in day-to-day life.
Years later, she shared a short story she’d been working on with her two closest friends and, with their encouragement, this story became her first full length novel. A.L. now spends her days writing in Southern Arizona where she lives with her husband and three children. Her favorite pastime is spending time with the ones she loves.
Aleena Moore is haunted by Jared Holt. It’s been six years since she’s seen her brother’s best friend, the self-destructive bad boy she secretly loved in high school. As the years pass, she knows it’s time to move on. Time to decide between a practical nursing degree and her true dream as an artist. Time to get over Jared and give another guy a chance…
Just when she opens her heart to her friend Gabe, Aly returns home to find Jared sleeping on her couch. The teenage boy she loved has grown into a man she can’t resist. Covered in tattoos and lost in rage, he’s begging to be saved from his demons—the memories of the day he destroyed his family. As the two reconnect, their passion is hot enough to torch Aly’s judgment. But can she risk her future for a man who lives on the edge of destruction?
