Winter’s Quest a new #UrbanFantasy by @annekane #RLFblog
This quick interview includes info about the author, and introduces the story.About the Author
Anne Kane lives in the beautiful Okanagan Valley with a bouncy Jack Russell terrier, a cantankerous Himalayan cat, a bossy little calico and too many fish to count. She spent many years trying to fit in and act normal, but finally gave up the effort. She started writing romance, and her fate was sealed when she won a publishing contract with Red Sage Publishing and just a month later Changeling Press accepted her first submission. Since then she had published more than thirty stories in a variety of sub-genres, all with a happily ever after.Her hobbies, when she’s not playing with the characters in her head, include kayaking, hiking, motorcycles, swimming, skating, karate, playing guitar, singing and of course, reading.Interview with Anne Kane
Why did you write this book?I wrote this book for the sake of my sanity. Winter’s Quest is the fourth book in the Mercenaries Series. The hero and heroine met in the previous book and had been nagging me to write their story for over a year. I finally gave in just to get some peace and quiet!What is your favorite genre to read?That’s a tough question, but I’d have to say paranormal romance, closely followed by Urban Fantasy and Science Fiction. I’m really not much of a fan of reality JWho is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?Not my own? Darn! Okay, it’s a toss up between Elena from Kelley Armstrong’s Women of the Otherworld series and Patricia Brigg’s Mercy Thompson.What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?I have two projects on the go at the moment. One is a full length novel that I started for NanoWrimo last year. I made the 50,000 word count, but the story isn’t finished yet. I’m also working on another installment of the Mercenaries Series which should be out late summer or early in the fall.Please tell us about your latest book.Trace wants Winter, and he’s not a man to take no for an answer.Winter remembers all about the insanity of life as a lab rat, but what she doesn’t know is how she got there. Given the mess she’d made out of her life up to this point, she needs to find the answers to her past before she can get on with her future.Trace isn’t sure why Winter is so hung up on her past but if she plans on chasing all over the nine provinces looking for answers then it’s up to him to make sure she stays safe. And, while they’re spending all that quality time together, maybe he can convince her that he’s more than just a convenient sex partner.About the Book

Double Feature: Anything Can Happen with @liviaquinn #RLFblog #UrbanFantasy
Come to a place where anything can happen… with Livia Quinn.Author Bio
Livia Quinn is a D.C. native living in Louisiana. She’s written ten books in her Storm Lake series, both paranormal and contemporary romance. “It’s like a mini-vacation from the real world.” “Walk don’t run to the buy button” her readers have said. Come to a place where anything can happen…Cry Me a River, book 2 Destiny Paramortals
Genre Science Fiction, Sword and Sorcery, Paranormal, Urban FantasyBook heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13He’s looking for normal, but has he found Mayberry or Middle Earth?Isn’t it just like a man to exit a relationship when he finds out a woman has a few little secrets? The last time I’d seen Sheriff Jack Lang, he got his first glimpse of my Paramortal “talents” – a few measly bolts of lightning aimed at his – in his general direction.I’ve denied my heritage as a Tempestaerie for nineteen years, but now my brother River, a Djnni like our father, is missing. Sheriff Lang is finally on board with our search for River but time is running out. In the course of the investigation we’ve gone from attraction to suspicion, support to friendship, romance to oh-my-god-get-away-from-me revulsion.Jack’s an ex-Navy pilot. He says he wants to know “everything”. My ex-lover, Dylan McGuinness, says after we answer Jack’s questions, he’ll either join us, or grab his daughter and take the first jet out of Middle Earth. Jack may stick around, help me save my brother and discover the whereabouts of my parents, but I doubt he’ll still want to take me to the Mardi Gras ball, once he knows “everything”. There’s a lot of everything…Amazon http://amzn.to/1RW3L6T

Storm Crazy (Book 1) is Free #paranormal by @liviaquinn #RLFblog
Storm Crazy (Book 1) by Livia Quinn is currently Free.
About the AuthorLivia Quinn is a DC native transplanted into the heart of Louisiana. Inspired (or terrorized) by the severe weather in the South, she started writing her Storm Lake series the summer of Katrina. She’s written 9 books based in the communities of Storm Lake – Destiny, Larue, and Thunder Point.Interview with Livia QuinnWhy did you write this book?I began writing stories about the communities surrounding Storm Lake in 2005. Storm Crazy started out as a cozy mystery about a rural carrier (and her wacky customers) who finds a dead body in the clubhouse. Back then, it was called Murder on a Bad Male Day ;) but it morphed into a cozy paranormal as my heroine struggled to control the crazy things happening around her and her impending quickening as a storm fairy. The whole dead body in the clubhouse thing took on bigger implications when it was connected to her brother’s missing genie bottle. And things just kept happening…What is your favorite genre to read?I can’t say I have a favorite although I love the edge and the extra escape value paranormal adds to a story. When I need to relax though, I’ll pick up a historical romance since I can resist the urge to analyze them knowing I couldn’t write one if I wanted to. Magic happens everywhere to some extent, so on my lake you’ll find both of these genres. Storm Lake West – Destiny – has a community of supernatural defenders, while in Larue and Thunder Point (Storm Lake East) you’ll meet the military heroes of my contemporary romance titles.Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?Well, Jamie Fraser aside, it would have to be Roarke, J.D. Robb’s hero. Here again, the paranormal/futuristic element of this series lends so much to his persona. He’s got it ALL, including his own planet. And it doesn’t hurt that a Roarke and Eve book comes out several times a year.What are you working on at the moment, and what will we see from you in coming months?Take These Broken Wings is book 5 in the Destiny Paramortals which will be out in a couple months as well as the sixth book, Bad Moon Rising, toward the end of the year. In addition, the next book in the Storm Lake East series, Eye of the Storm is coming up in the Fall.Please tell us about your book.I’m Tempest Pomeroy, and my human job is delivering the mail. To say I was having a bad day would be like saying Katrina dropped a little rain on New Orleans. First, River’s amphora went missing—that’s genie bottle to you mere-mortals. I know— the names right? We were just lucky we didn’t end up as Black Cloud and Little Sprinkle. Or Flash and Flood. With my hair, I’d have been Flash. I’m also a Paramortal like the rest of my family. Or I’m supposed to be. If it wasn’t for a few little talents I’d think I was adopted.On my first delivery, a scantily clad doctor triggered a hallucination when we touched. Pheromones? An old trouble-maker had a stroke but I saved the old fart with a zap of my Zeus juice! It was the first time I’d actually called my power on purpose, and our hunky new sheriff almost saw me use my magic—big no-no. He showed up again when the owner of Flowers by Dick complained that I’d dropped a seventy-five pound box on his foot. Yeah, I did, but it was an accident. He put his hand on my butt and my hands sorta… slipped. Then things really went downhill.I discovered a dead body while rescuing River’s bottle from a locker as the sheriff arrived again. Now, my brother’s missing, my mother’s AWOL and the sheriff and my ex-lover are squaring off like yard dogs staking a claim on a poodle. I am no one’s poodle. Aurora says all this chaos is a sign of my quickening power and things are only going to get worse.Oh, and the sheriff? He thought he’d settled in a normal small town to raise his teenage daughter. Like Mayberrry. We’ll see how that turns out. Things had better settle down soon, ‘cause I’m about to go Storm Crazy.About the BookTitle Storm CrazyGenre ParanormalAuthor Livia QuinnBook heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13Buy This BookPublisher Campbell Hill PublishingAmazon http://amzn.to/1Se1GTlARe http://bit.ly/SC-AReBarnes and Noble http://bit.ly/SC-nkCreateSpace (Print) http://bit.ly/1W0z0MqGoodreads http://bit.ly/SC-GRIBooks bit.ly/SC-IbkInktera http://bit.ly/SC-iterScribd http://bit.ly/SC-ScdKobo bit.ly/SC-KBoAuthor Social MediaWebsite http://liviaquinn.comBlog http://liviaquinn.com/blog.htmlTwitter bit.ly/1Oeek0LPinterest bit.ly/1mRx90SGoodreads bit.ly/22VXuevAmazon Author Page http://amzn.to/1OLwtUXTSU https://www.tsu.co/LiviaQuinnGoogle + plus.google.com/liviaquinn
