Felicia Rogers, born and raised in the southern part of the United States, is a Christian wife and mother. She is just your average, ordinary woman, with a side interest-- writing. For eleven years, every waking moment of her life was consumed with changing diapers, wiping noses, and kissing scrapes. But now that her children have grown and she enjoys a modicum of freedom, in addition to taking care of hearth and home, she writes! She enjoys adding a flavor of realism and humor to her all too real romance stories. For what is love without a little laughter?
1) What genres are your favorites to read? How about to write in?
Personally my favorite genre to read is romance. If we have to digger deeper I would say historical romance with a twist of time travel.
As far as my favorite genre to write, that is a tricky question. So far I’ve written and published two YA paranormal suspense novels, two short contemporary romances, and a historical suspense romance, which I hope to be the first of a five part series. Within the next month I will have a chick-lit and an inspirational suspense published as well. I really don’t have a favorite genre to write. I enjoy placing every story that comes into my head down on paper.
2) Who is one of your favorite characters that you have written? Please tell us about him/her and what book they are in.
My favorite character I’ve written would have to be Cedric. He was the first male hero I really created and he is in the book, There Your Heart Will Be Also. The reasons I like him, is he’s Scottish, and he wears a kilt. He’s also protective, flirty, and handsome.
3) For those who have not read your work yet, what book would you recommend starting with?
Recommending a book to a new reader is always difficult. In the past year I’ve noticed that not all readers have the same tastes. What I like others may not. But I guess if the reader is into YA paranormal I would suggest my book, The Key. If they are into historical novels I would go with There Your Heart Will Be Also. However, if they are just looking for a short romantic read they could try, The Holiday Truce or The Perfect Rose. As you can see, I have something for everyone.
4) Where can readers find and connect with you on the web?
Readers can find me at my website ~ Facebook ~ Goodreads ~ Email
5) What is one thing that you could not live without?
Coffee! You ask what is the one thing I can’t live without and I give you coffee. No way could I go more than a day and not drink some of the steamy brew. It wakes me up and starts my morning. I enjoy the smell, the taste with the right about of flavored creamer, the warmth, I love it all!
Just to share a little secret, I have a shirt which carries a message concerning this very thing. It says, “Is there life before coffee?” And my answer is, “Of course not!”
Book Spotlight:
There Your Heart Will Be Also Only daughter of an English lord, Sarra of Greenbriar, is used to getting her way. So when her father passes and the King begins sending suitors, she feels justified in taking matters into her own hands. Through a series of harmless pranks, Sarra works to keep the potential husbands at bay.
Cedric MacNeil is a Scotsman that has lost it all. Death claimed his parents and jealousy claimed his entitled position as Laird of his clan. Since his mother was a familiar of the English court, he leaves his native land and heads to England to fight on behalf of the English King. Tournaments are won, earning honor and glory for the crown. Cedric’s reward is the opportunity to gain what he wants most in this life, land.
But as he gets to know Sarra, he realizes he might get more than he bargained for.

Coffee --- me too! Doubt I'd survive without it.
Though I've had to cut back slightly on volume, I drink one small cup about every hour ... in the morning.
No more coffee in the afternoons or evenings, though.
thanks for the chance to read these wonderful stories :)
