Recently, I caught up with the globe trotting hero of my paranormal romance, The Soul Jar [New Concepts Publishing, June 2006]. Mr. MacKenzie was kind enough to grant an interview before jetting off to his next exotic locale. Since he didn’t have a lot of time, I figured I’d cut right to the chase and ask the hard questions up front so all you interested ladies could get to know Mr. Tall Blond and Handsome.JC: First off, how did you get the name “Chance”?
CM: My first name is actually Mason, but all my friends call me Chance. I’ve been told the name Mason doesn’t fit me. I guess I’m too tall. They started calling me Chance when I was wrestling sharks in Bimini. [Winks]
JC: Sharks? Hmm. You’ve given that up, I hope. What is it you do for a living these days? I’ve heard whispers that you work for the CIA .
CM: Ah...I do as little actual ‘work’ as possible. [Laughs] My business card says “Entrepreneur.” I dabble in antiquities, international security and ‘creative bargaining.’
JC: Where did you get that yummy accent?
CM: Born and raised in New South Wales, Australia but I haven’t been back in a while.
JC: What would you say is your best feature?
CM: If this is a PG rated interview, I can’t tell you.
JC: [Blushing] Your second best feature then?
CM: My eyes. I’ve been told they’re brooding and smoky.
JC: I can’t argue with that. [Drools a bit] Let’s talk about your personality. You’re certainly not a homebody. How would you describe yourself to the opposite sex?
CM: PG rating again?
JC: [Nods] We’ll save the...intimate stuff for another time.
CM: All right, I’d say, I’m well traveled, well read and always looking for adventure. I don’t like to stay in one place long, so be ready to go at a moment’s notice. Breakfast might be in Milan, dinner in Cairo, dessert in Paris.
JC: So a lady has to be ready for anything with you around. Describe your ideal woman.
CM: Is it okay to say I like brunettes? Blue eyed brunettes to be precise. My ideal woman stays calm in the face of danger. She’s smart and self-reliant and ready for anything.
JC: Danger, you say?
CM: It seems to follow me wherever I go.
JC: And where will danger follow you next?
CM: That’s classified, luv.
JC: One final question before you go. Are you available?
CM: [Laughs] Not anymore. I’ve found the woman of my dreams, again. And I’m never letting her go.
JC: [Long suffering SIGH.] Oh well. On to the next hunky hero.
