Meet Sasha

1.Tell us about yourself and why did you decide to become a romance writer? 

Hi, I am Sasha. I’ve always loved reading romance novels, and planned to write one someday. In 2015, I started writing what would become the first book in the NYC Singles Series. I really enjoy reading, eating, listening to music, and 

2. Can you share some of your favourite books and authors? 

Judith McNaught and Lisa Kleypas were the authors who pulled me into the romance genre, along with Nora Roberts. Other romance writers I love are: Courtney Milan, Susan Elizabeth Phillips, and Julie James. Some of my favorite books/series are Lockwood & Co by Jonathan Stroud, Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple mysteries by Agatha Christie, Perry Mason books by Erle Stanley Gardner, translated works of Keigo Higashino, and the Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo. As you can see, I love reading all kinds of books. 

3. Who/what do you consider your writing influence/inspiration? 

I feel like I have been influenced by many writers, which has led to a writing style that is a mix of many styles. 

4. What kind of stories can the readers expect from you (contemporary/historical/sci-fi, adult/NA/YA, etc)? 

Until now, all my books have been contemporary adult romances, but I am planning to branch out into fantasy-romance at some point in the future. However, I will continue writing contemporary romances also. 

5. Please, introduce your upcoming/latest release. 

Love Me Like You Do is the third book in the NYC Singles series and can be read as a standalone. The main story is based around Dr. Bella Hopkins, a philosophy professor who runs into a TV producer at Trader Joe’s. The TV producer is the guy she eventually falls in love with—Jamie. Jamie is producing a show and an actress playing an important character injured herself. Since Bella looks very similar to the injured actress, Jamie wants her to substitute. 

The book also features a secondary romance between Jamie’s father, who is an Oscar-winning actor, and one of his co-workers. 

Blurb 

A single, overweight college professor. 

A TV producer looking for a replacement actress. 

A chance meeting that changes both their lives. 

Dr. Bella Hopkins is looking for love. The forever kind. But instead, she gets a role in a new sitcom, when she runs into Hollywood-screenwriter-turned-producer Jamie Star at the supermarket. 

Jamie wants his first show to succeed. He didn’t count on the lead actress injuring herself and pulling out last minute. When he meets Bella, who looks exactly like the actress he just lost, Jamie is convinced that the solution to his problem is simple—convince the college professor to act in his show. 

But a misplaced sext, almost kiss, and crazy co-actress later, what started out as a simple solution turns into a problem of its own.
