Janet Nissenson Hi, Claudia! I'm actually looking into releasing all of my titles in audiobook format. Just a matter right now of the costs involved and getting the best price, etc. I hope to be starting this process within the next few months. Thanks so much for reaching out - it is appreciated!
Janet Nissenson Top of the list are The Red by Tiffany Reisz and The Devil's Cut by J.R. Ward. More to follow!
Janet Nissenson Hi, Rach! Pleased to hear that you are enjoying the series! The sixth and final book - Stronger - will be out in late summer/early fall, probably mid-September. As I get a little further along in the process I'll have an official release date. Thanks so much for your interest!
Janet Nissenson Olivia and Dean from Nina Lane's Spiral of Bliss series, because they are completely in love and devoted to each other, and the struggles they face in the books are real and not imagined, and they come through them stronger than ever. Throughout the series you can always feel the tremendous love and respect they have for each other. Plus, their story is beautifully written by a wonderful author.
Janet Nissenson Hi, Cc! Thank you so much for your kind words, and I'm thrilled that you've enjoyed my books. Ian and Tessa are my favorites, and they are going to be a tough act to follow! After finishing up the last two books in the Inevitable series, I'm toying with the idea of a new trilogy - though each would be a standalone - each featuring a hero who always thought of himself as a lifelong bachelor - until the right woman came along, of course! One of these bachelors would definitely be Jordan, the doctor first introduced in Splendor/Crave and who will make several appearances in Claim.

I think you'll enjoy Claim. It's a fitting continuation for Ian and Tessa and we'll also see more of them in the next Inevitable book - Serenity. Many thanks for reaching out!
Janet Nissenson Thank you so much, Bridget! So pleased to know that you are enjoying the books and I appreciate your kind words. Next up is Claim, the final book in the Splendor trilogy, and then Serenity and Stronger to finish out the Inevitable series.
Janet Nissenson Hi, Mary Kay! Splendor was the second book I wrote in the Inevitable series, and since it was such a huge book already I had to skim over certain parts of the story. Thus the book was "spun off" into its own trilogy. Covet is the prequel and should be read first; Crave is basically the same book as the original Splendor but with about a dozen new scenes; and Claim is the sequel/continuation of the story. They should be read in that order - Covet, Crave, Claim. Thanks for reaching out and best wishes to you!

Janet Nissenson Hi, Rach! Thanks so much for reaching out and so happy to hear you like the books! Yes, the next book in the series is Sensational and it is Lauren's story, due to be released around November 10. I should have info up here on GR early part of next week. Two more books in the series after that plus a separate, "spin-off" series as well.
Janet Nissenson Hi, Am

Thank you so much for your message and I'm so happy to hear you are enjoying the books. Yes, the URL for the extra scenes is https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2.... You can read them in PDF format on your computer screen. I hope to post the next group of scenes sometime in December. Wishing you all the best!

Regards,
Janet Nissenson
Janet Nissenson Thanks so much for your message - really appreciate it! I'm hard at work on Angela's story right now and hope to have it completed by December, which would involve a March 2015 release date. Lauren's story will follow and would probably be released sometime during the summer of 2015. In the meanwhile, you can catch up a bit with both of them in the new Serendipity wedding novella, titled All You Need is Love, coming out on November 12. You get to meet Lauren's boss Ben in this and there are also a few hints about Angela's mystery man.
Janet Nissenson When I'm really on a roll the inspiration just comes. I often find myself playing out scenes/dialog from the next chapter in my head while I'm driving or doing some other task and am usually quick to make notes about it while the ideas are still fresh in my mind.
Janet Nissenson Thus far that hasn't happened to me, though I have certainly had stretches where I was uninspired or too lazy to write. At that point I draw myself up a schedule and focus on getting a chapter written within a specific time period.
Janet Nissenson Being able to create these characters and worlds and bend them to your will. In real life it's virtually impossible to control what goes on but in your fiction world you are the master/mistress of your domain.
Janet Nissenson Splendor was created from the idea of forbidden love, of this man who could really have any woman he wanted but the only one who caught his eye was already taken.
Janet Nissenson I'm currently working on the Serendipity novella, about Julia and Nathan's wedding. It will be a relatively short, fun and of course steamy read.
Janet Nissenson Find your own individual writing style and don't try to emulate other writers or write what you think will be popular. Originality and writing from the heart should be your major goals.
