When did you first read it and what is it about that story that makes it stick in your mind?

Katz, I'm so glad you still remember ANGEL FOR HIRE. It was a special book for me, too. And for any struggling writers out there, may I mention it was at first rejected, and later went on to win the RITA?

Thanks again, and come back any time!

MORNING SIDE OF DAWN is wonderful!

But the two futuristics were incredible as well!

Thanks for stopping by! It's lovely to see a familiar name. And also for mentioning three of my other personal favorites! And a couple of extremes: a book I sweated blood over (MORNING SIDE OF DAWN) and a book that I felt like a transcriber on, it came so quickly and completely. (LORD OF THE STORM)

Justine

Marianne,
Thank you for those sweet words. It's one of the greatest pleasures of this work, hearing things like that.

I hope your daughter has been well since?

Justine

Ciao!

I can't really pick one favorite. My first one was Stevie's Chase. In fact, it's sitting on my night table right now. I loved Dar's and Sean's stories too. I also loved the Trinity Street Street West series, especially Clay's story. Lord of the Storm and The Skypirate are up there too! I guess you could said that I love emotionally gripping books.

Thanks! Emotionally gripping is what I'm after; it's what started me reading romance and what keeps me writing it.

I've been thinking of offering those three books, Stevie, Sean and Dar as a prize package, and now that you bring them up, perhaps I will.

Of course, I should check and see if I can even find copies before I open my mouth, I suppose....

Justine

Thanks for dropping in. I'm glad you liked Dangerous Ground. I had great fun with the Dangerous Duo, as it were. As to reprinting, I don't control that, the publisher does, at least for now. I wish writers ruled the publishing world, then everything we loved would always be in print!

Justine

Welcome! Ah, I did love that Skypirate book. The result, that is. The process was painful, and as I dealt with trying to make Califa a heroine, more than once I stopped and asked myself "What were you thinking???"

Justine

Thanks once again. It's nice to know that particular book stays with people. I remember one of the most special reader letters I've ever received was from a lady who told of being in her bank the day after she'd finished reading it. There was a woman in a wheelchair also in line. She said before, she would have smiled perhaps, but that was all. But now she struck up a conversation, they discovered they had much in common, and she now had a new friend. It made the blood, sweat and tears worth it.

Justine

I also loved "Cool Under Fire." That was the book that made Justine Davis a must-buy author for me. And "Morning Side of Dawn" is another book I reread regularly.

Justine, I read the frequently asked questions and I'm so sorry that we still won't see the kids from LOTS and SP. I'd love to see their story and Rina's as well. Thanks for hours of great reads!

Patti

Ah, you make all that work with Califa worthwhile. Thank you. I do hope someday I will get to write the kids story, for my own satisfaction if nothing else. Who knows, it may turn up here someday, a chapter at a time. As for Rina, no story has come to me for her. Yet. I never say never, since it tends to backfire!

Thanks for stopping by, and again, welcome to the board.

Justine

Welcome to the board! Stick around and play awhile. I'm delighted you liked Trinity West. They were great fun to do, and I admit, Miguel was a personal favorite of mine. The fact that I lived with Jimmy Smits' photo on the wall throughout the writing had nothing to do with it, of course. And ANGEL FOR HIRE was one of those very special books that came to me complete, all I had to do was keep up and then polish the details, so it's very special to me.

Thanks for all the kind words, and again, welcome.

Justine

Keep up the great work.

I've loved all of the books, but my favorite one has to be Morning Side of Dawn. I love it completely and totally. I've had my copy for years and re-read it every few months. Another one that sticks in my mind is the entire Trinity Street West series. Again, I gather them all together and spend the day enjoying. I can't wait for the Bombshell series next month so I can get my hands on the first book!

I LOVED Cool Under Fire. And years later after I discovered UBS's I found out I had completely missed To Hold An Eagle. Both really increidble stories.

Then there's Stevie's Chase where Chase makes me cry every time. Left At The Altar with Sean who has grown so much since SC. And Dar...OMG...I'm head over heels in love with Dar.

But I think if absolutely forced, (and large caliber weaponry would have to be involved here) my favorite book would be Suspicion's Gate. LOVED the relationship between Nikki and Travis. Especially the very end.

*sigh* Now I'm gonna have to go read parts of it.

Darn it.

Lynda

Thanks for your books Justine. I'm glad I found this place !!

I am completely jealous because I would love to have a boss like Josh and work for a company like Redstone. You created an absolutely wonderful collection of characters and told such great stories, I can't believe we're at the end. At least, given the title of the last book, I'm assuming we're at the end.
