J. Paulette Forshey
1. I hear you have a dog in Miracles from the Heart. Tell us about the book.
Miracles of the Heart is an anthology–two stories in one book. The first story is “The Christmas Gift”–a couple who married for convenience find love, happiness, and the family they’ve always wanted.
The second story is “Magic of the Christmas Flute”–a little girl’s Christmas wish brings more than joyful holiday music to her family.
“Miracles From The Heart: This is a perfect book to curl up on the couch with and read at Christmas time.” – 5 Stars, an Amazon reader
2. Why did you add a dog to “The Christmas Gift”?
“The Christmas Gift” is dedicated to my late Jack Russell, Belladonna aka Belle, the best four-legged friend and shadow I could ever have. She brought me extreme joy and happiness. I’ve had some wonderful dogs in my life, but Belle was extra special. On or off a lead, she stuck by me. We’ve had Basset Hounds, Airedale Terriers, a Doberman, and at one time we had 30 birds–from tiny Finches to Amazon Orange-winged Parrots. [We also had] a house rabbit, several cats, and many, many fish–fresh water and salt.
3. What other books have you written?
Other books I’ve written are The Tarczal Alliance and 33 Days ‘til Christmas, to name a few. The first is a new breed of vampires and the other a Christmas story. My pendulum of genres swings wide–horror, romance; sweet, erotica, paranormal, and contemporary.
4. Tell us about your kudos or reviews.
Here are some quotes from my 5-Star Reviews:
“I still love Miracles from the Heart! It’s my every year Christmas read.” – Mary H., reader.
“This was my first read of J. Paulette Forshey’s—and I know this sounds so cliché–but it will most certainly NOT be my last.” – C. Percer, reader
“Yes, it IS possible to find a new favorite author in…a couple of short stories! I marveled at how Forshey managed to fill so much intensity, romance, poignancy, sexiness and tenderness into…a short story. [“The Christmas Gift”] is a delightful, heart-warming romance. “Magic of the Christmas Flute” – It’s been a long time since I had to force myself not to race to the end of a story because it was THAT lovely… Mix the characters together and add…Christmas magic, a close-knit small town and maybe even…ah, no…you read it for yourself! I can’t spoil the surprise.” – author Virginia Wright
“Ms. Forshey is…a true wordsmith of elegance, gorgeous prose, luscious imagery.” – an Amazon reader

Thank you for having me on your blog!
Hi Paulette, your interview was amazing
Thank you so much, I will have to read one of your books. I love Christmas and animals, your Belle was so darn cute and looked very wise. My sister has an all black kitty baby named Nadia, she is so sweet and spoiled, but they all should be. I haven’t had very many pets, but I had my own kitty many years ago and he was my baby, also fresh water fish. Thank you for the amazing interview I loved it, have a great weekend.
Congratulations, Deva! You won one of my ebooks. I’ll email you to let you know how to get your ebook. Have a wonderful summer!
Hi, Deva! Thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting on Paulette’s interview. It sounds like you and your sister are pet lovers. Most of my family are cat parents, although two prefer dogs. I think pets make such a wonderful addition to our lives. Best wishes on a happy June!
nice interview
