She's not searching for love in a coffee shop or bumping into a stranger at a bookstore. She's a pastor's wife, the First Lady of a thriving church, a woman the whole congregation looks up to. And she is suffocating. Today I want to pull back the curtain and tell you where Delilah came from and why her story matters to me. The Question That Started It All Delilah was born from a...]]></description><link>https://www.cnbookseries.com/post/meet-delilah-the-inspiration-behind-a-sunday-affair</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c88f7a495b613043528af2</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Mar 2026 04:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/86aa4f_e741bdfdc8d84da8b20410ca5f882e86~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Candace Nicole</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Something New Is Coming...]]></title><description><![CDATA[I've been sitting on this for a while, and I can't keep it to myself any longer. If you know me, you know romance is my home. I love writing love stories. I love the tension, the chemistry, the messy emotions, and the happily-ever-afters. That hasn't changed, and it never will. But something else has been pulling at me for a long time now, something darker, something that kept me up at night, something I knew I had to write even though it scared me. I wrote a psychological thriller. Yes, you...]]></description><link>https://www.cnbookseries.com/post/something-new-is-coming</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c890e64b5dfe0bfdb11dc1</guid><pubDate>Fri, 13 Mar 2026 04:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/86aa4f_8d12ef7c340545598c2db2ed1b1c822a~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Candace Nicole</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Story Behind The Made Series]]></title><description><![CDATA[As a reader, there's nothing more frustrating than falling in love with a character's best friends...only to never find out what happens to them. We meet these amazing, supportive people who stand by the main character through everything, and then their stories just disappear. I always felt cheated by that. So when I sat down to write The Made Series, I knew exactly what I wanted to create: a series about three best friends, each dealing with life and love, while maintaining their friendship...]]></description><link>https://www.cnbookseries.com/post/the-story-behind-the-made-series</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c88f1c4b5dfe0bfdb119ff</guid><pubDate>Fri, 20 Feb 2026 05:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/86aa4f_a5c8d429b8414753ace3b9ff474b682b~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Candace Nicole</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Valentine's Day Redefined: The Love Story That Starts With You]]></title><description><![CDATA[February 14th rolls around, and the world tells us what love should look like: roses, chocolates, grand gestures, and perfect moments. But what if I told you that the most important love story you'll ever write is the one with yourself? In my years writing romance, I've learned something that changed how I see Valentine's Day entirely. The real love stories, the ones that last, that transform us, that feel authentic, they all start with one person brave enough to be completely,...]]></description><link>https://www.cnbookseries.com/post/valentine-s-day-redefined-the-love-story-that-starts-with-you</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c88bd74b5dfe0bfdb11406</guid><pubDate>Sun, 15 Feb 2026 03:21:56 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/86aa4f_29db2ce816304df8b77cac9ff42b8083~mv2.jpeg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Candace Nicole</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[10 Things You Didn't Know About Me]]></title><description><![CDATA[You know me as an author, but here are a few things you might not know about the person behind the books. 1. I'm a night owl at heart.  If I had it my way, I'd wake up early for breakfast, go back to bed, and then get up in the late afternoon to actually get things done. That's when I come alive. 2. Cat lover and completely obsessed.  My two babies are Olivia Nicole and Isabella. Yes, they have sexy names. Yes, they are hot girls and deserve them.  3.

But it wasn't until middle school, in a creative writing afterschool class, that I discovered just how much joy writing brought me. That class unlocked something...a passion I didn't know I had and one that has never left me. For me, writing isn't really a choice. The characters show up, they make themselves known, and they demand their stories be told. I'm just the one lucky enough to bring them to life on the page. There's nothing quite like the feeling of...]]></description><link>https://www.cnbookseries.com/post/why-i-write</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c6f9fd60f0b8e113516b41</guid><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/86aa4f_961bf67dbc4c43ea8413615505ecdbef~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Candace Nicole</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
