Would you ever consider writing something from Well Met in Simon's perspective?
Jen DeLuca Good timing on this question! I'm actually releasing a short "deleted scene" from Simon's perspective in my newsletter later this week. You can subscribe at www.jendeluca.com/newsletter .

Other than that, I don't really have any plans to write from his perspective, though I love the idea!

Hello, I really loved your book Well Met. I still love it, in fact! I was just wondering- Did you too meet someone special at the Faire in real life? I am eagerly waiting for your next book, and I am sure it would be great! PS: I really have this terrible habit of wondering about the behind the scenes of every novel, trying to view it from the perspective of author. It just makes me feel more connected to be honest.
Jen DeLuca Hi! I did not meet my someone special at Faire... that part is entirely fiction! However, I did spend two seasons volunteering as a tavern wench for a local Ren Faire, and used my experience there as inspiration for the novel. Thanks so much for reading!

Hello! Just read Well Met and I'm in love, it's one of my favourite reads this year! I know that Stacey has her story coming out Fall next year but is there any way April will be getting her own book?
Jen DeLuca I do have some plans for April, and I hope I get to tell her story!

Can you tell us a two-sentence horror story?
Jen DeLuca I opened the fridge and gasped; it was gone. "How am I supposed to drink coffee without half & half??"

If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?
Jen DeLuca I was a huge fan of the Land of Oz books when I was a kid, so I'd probably go there. It would be like going home again! I'd explore the 4 different countries, then go to the Emerald City and hang with Ozma for a bit. She always seemed cool.

What books are on your summer reading list this year?
Jen DeLuca I got on kind of a Christina Lauren kick, so I read The Unhoneymooners, My Favorite Half-Night Stand, and Dating You/Hating You. I also read an ARC of Not the Girl You Marry by Andie J. Christopher, and it's a delight! Look for it later this year!

Please write more novels! I am OBSESSED with Well Met and can't wait to see what else you come out with. Your writing style is right up my alley and I not only love the story line of the Renaissance Faire, but also the added humor is great! Anything else coming out in the near future?!
Jen DeLuca Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed Well Met. I'm currently working on a follow up novel, set at the same Renaissance faire, currently set for release in Fall of 2020.

What is your favorite and least favorite romance trope?
Jen DeLuca I’m a sucker for enemies to lovers, fake dating, and second chances. I’m not so fond of secret baby stories, but am open to being persuaded!
