Welcome to another week of Author Chat with me. Today we have a relatively new author who managed to impress the readers in the genre with her series Nava Dance Studios. Soon, Alex J. Adams has a new book coming in January which is already on preorder.
Let’s chat with Alex and get to know her more!
ACwA Guest: Alex J. Adams
How did the first story you ever wrote influence your career as an author and how do you feel about that story now?
Alex: The first story I wrote, Dance With Me, set me on a path I never thought I’d take. I had never written anything until January of this year but then sometimes, things just happen. I sat down and wrote it. Not sure how I feel about it now. Everyone still seems to love the story. It’s still going well, still getting good reviews. I think now I could write it better but I’ve been told to leave it alone!
Which of your characters is most like you (or someone close to you.)
Alex: Hazel in Dance With Me, is probably most like me. Feisty and sassy, and says what she means, no filter. I’m quite sure that a few people would agree with that comparison
What is your favorite trope and why?
Alex: I’m not sure I have a favourite. I love second chances, enemies to lovers and a good fake boyfriend story. It’s really hard to choose. Aso adore a jock/nerd book.
How many half-written stories are on your hard-drive and what do you plan to do with them?
Alex: Half written stories? I have a few, at least four at the moment but I’m hoping to release most of them next year. Book three of Nava Studios is begging to be written and I have started it.
What are you working on next?
Alex: I’m still putting the finishing touches to Saving Ziggy but I have a couple in the pipeline. The next one to release will probably be Vince’s story which I’m loving writing. I was listening to a song and the story just appeared in my head so I wrote it. I rarely plan.
Alex J. Adams’ Upcoming Release
BLURB
Ziggy
Leaving home four years ago was the best thing I could have done. Selling myself on the streets for the past two years, the worst, but what else was I to do? All I truly wanted was someone I could love and someone to love me in return. Was it really too much to ask?
Meeting him, the most handsome man ever, I thought all my prayers had been answered…..until they weren’t.
That man was almost the death of me.
Marc
An early call out changes my life forever. I can’t get him out of my head. I need to know his story, need to know what put him in the back of my ambulance, as close to death as he could be.
The more I know, the more I want him in my life, but is he too damaged? Too scarred at such an early age to let me love him as he deserves.
I’ve been burnt before but I won’t let that stop me this time. I need to make him see he can have it all, including me.
Saving Ziggy is a darker MM romance about a young male prostitute and the paramedic that saves him. Please heed the trigger warnings: This book features abuse, both verbal and physical and sexual assault

Alex is married and has three grown boys and two fluffy dogs. She lives in the UK and when she’s not writing about her dancing men, she can be found sitting down with a cup of tea and a good book.
She would love to write full time and dreams of the day she can sit in the South of France, overlooking the sea writing about love and happyily ever afters.
Hello Alex! Nice getting to know you. Joe and Seb have a special place in my heart. I loved reading about them and their struggles to be together in the end. It’s was a sweet slow burn but melted my heart. I can’t wait to.see this new direction you’re going with Ziggy.
I’m going to give Dance With Me a try!
