Hello Michaela, I first want to thank
you for having me guest on your blog to celebrate Breathless Press's Birthday!
I am a relatively new author. Breathless Press gave me an opening to share my
love for writing, romance, and storytelling. In a short time the editors and
authors there have become like a second family to me. I love how supportive
they are of their authors. So, I wish BP a great birthday with chocolate cake,
yummy ice cream, and loads of toppings!
Now, a little about me and my
publications!
I am from upstate New York, surrounded
by rivers, forests, and small towns. I live in the lovely city of Ogdensburg on
the St. Lawrence river. I've been happily married to my husband, Josh for a
year this month. I guess we are still newlyweds, though I feel like I've loved
him forever! We have two furbabies, a cat named Copperkins and a mutt named
Sampson. They are the sweetest. Though Copperkins has a habit of sitting on my
lap while I'm writing(yes she's here right now). She also likes to play on my computer
while I sleep, which is why I end up deleting pages and pages in the mornings.
One of these days I expect she'll learn to write herself!
I currently have one e-book out titles,
Winter Gifts. I've had some very good reviews on it, thank you readers. Sending
bug hugs to you!
On July 12th my first book in
my Sisters of Fate series titled When the Fur Flies. It is currently on
preorder on the Breathless Press website. Below is a sneak peak at it and I
hope everyone likes it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
In a world where immortals are bound
by the Tri-Species Treaty, there is little hope for a happy ending between a
Wolven and a Witch, unless the Sisters of Fate take a stand.
More than
a little fur flies when an Alpha Wolven mistakenly mates a Witch, whose cat
form is running low on lives. Allison Carver is a Witch on a mission to save
humanity from the two species of immortals who prey upon them. She finds
herself in trouble when she steals the Vampire Elder's intended bride and the
blame for the abduction lands right at Alpha Reginald Leclair's feet. She finds
herself shaking in her black fur with more than her tail at stake when
Reginald's Wolf chooses her as a mate. The idea of interspecies mating wasn't
so much ignored by the writers, but seemed unfathomable. After all, when cats
and dogs play, more can fly than fur…
Sneak peak of When the Fur Flies…
"Where are we going? Reginald?" He didn't as
much as look back at her. Her legs hurt as he didn't even slow his steps to
accommodate her shorter stride. When they were far from the sounds of the pack
readying themselves for the hunt, he stopped to turn toward her. Allison bit
her lip nervously as he continued to stare at her. His thoughts were weirdly
guarded from her, but she could feel the waves of anger and frustration coming
off his body.
"I won't apologize for what I did." She knew
it was the wrong thing to say the instant his eyes dilated and he moved. The
hard bark of the tree bit into her back and shoulders as he shoved her up
against it with a violence that was barely controlled.
"Do you even know what you did, Allison?"
The way his white teeth flashed and his voice growled at her should have scared
her, but it was the use of her name that terrified her. A shiver ran up her
spine as she looked up into the face of rage. "I could change right now.
My Wolf wants out. He wants to dominate you so hard you won't ever question me
again."
She flinched as his fist hit the tree beside her head.
Bark flew off the tree at the impact, telling her exactly how much anger he was
holding back. It should have made her want to run as far from his animal as she
could get, but instead her body was humming and hot, leaning toward his
hardness like it was drawn to him. And it was because the mating heat was returning
in full force, stronger than before in the urge to be one with her mate. She
needed him, but not like this. Not with his anger standing between them.
"Change, then." She stared up at him
defiantly. "Let him have me, because this is who I am, Reginald. I'm
strong headed and willful. I won't be a weak little bitch who follows your
every word. I make my own choices for my life."
"You are my mate! I can't lose you."
"You don't own me!" she screamed back at
him. She clenched her teeth, fighting the need to release the build-up of
energy within her. Thunder cracked across the dark sky above them.
"That's where you're wrong, Allison. You are
mine!" His mouth came down on hers with a bruising force. He sank his
fingers into her hair, holding her head immovable as he ravaged her mouth.
She was burning alive and loving every minute of it.
Allison made short work of the buttons on the white shirt he'd pulled on after
his fight. One hard pull and they popped off in all directions to land in the
scattered clumps of grass and dirt on the forest floor. His head snapped back
as her nails dug into his biceps.
"That's right, Alpha. You're not the only one who
likes to leave your mark on your property." She dropped her hands to the
button on his pants, but he quickly captured her wrists, pulling them up next
to her head on the tree.
"Like it rough, do you, mate? Well, you've got
the right Wolf for the job." He grinned as he quickly turned her. Allison
gasped as she was pushed up against the tree. "Who do you belong to? Who
is responsible for you? Who will you obey from now on? Say it, Kitten."
His words were at her ear, his breath warm against her neck as he moved her
hair with his chin to lick over the mark he'd given her.
When the Fur Flies can be preordered now on Breathless
Press's website. It will be released for sale on July 12th at
Amazon.com, All Romance e-books, Bookstrand.com, and the Breathless Press
website. Book two of the Sisters of Fate, Bitten By Magic, will be out later
this year in August. On July 19th I also have a contemporary romance
out titled, Anne's Legacy. If you like sweet romance with a hint of sexy,
you'll want to check this out as well.
