Diane Saxon author of Banshee Seduction, Montgomery’s Sin
Book 1 answers five easy questions to help readers get to know her better.Author Bio
Diane Saxon lives in the Shropshire countryside with her tall, dark, handsome husband, two gorgeous daughters, a Dalmatian, one-eyed kitten, ginger cat, six chickens and a lazy black Labrador puppy called Beau – a name she stole for her hero in For Heaven’s Cakes.After
working for years in a demanding job, on-call and travelling great distances,
Diane gave it all up when her husband said “follow that dream”.Having
been hidden all too long, her characters have burst forth demanding plot lines
of their own and she’s found the more she lets them, the more they’re inclined
to run wild.What’s your favorite down-home
family style meal?Although I’ve lived abroad for much of my young life and
still love to travel, there is nothing finer than a good old fashioned English
Sunday roast. A rib of beef, pink in the middle, Yorkshire pudding, roast
potatoes (crispy on the outside, fluffy in the middle), leeks in cheese sauce,
carrots and broccoli with a good, savory gravyWhat is your go-to meal
when you dine out?I love food. I’m no connoisseur, but I would far rather have
a little bit of something really delicious than a whole heap of something just
for the sake of eating.If I’m given the choice when dining out, I will always
choose an Italian restaurant. I find it very difficult to choose, but I love a
tasty seafood risotto or a creamy tagliatelli.Tell us about your
favorite toy as a child.I still have my favorite toy. It’s tucked away in one of my
underwear drawers, so delicate now that I very rarely touch it. But, it’s
there, never to be thrown out. Threadbare and floppy, my little lambie has been
with me since I was probably four or five. It’s been all over the world with
me. Drowned in brandy on our return home from Germany, a straw filled toy, it
would never have survived if my Grandma hadn’t insisted on washing, washing,
washing it. I still fancy I can smell alcohol on it now. With both eyes
missing, a broken leg and the stitching gone from its mouth and nose, it’s
still one of my most precious possessions.What are your hobbies?Reading, writing, walking my Dalmatian and black Labrador for
miles, snorkeling and holidaying.What kinds of things do
you read when you’re researching a new book?It depends on what kind of book I’m writing. When I wrote my
sci-fi, Short Circuit Time, I spent a lot of research time reading Steven
Hawkins. For my upcoming book later this year, I’ve trawled the internet for
information on Black Hawk helicopters, their pilots and training.For Banshee Seduction, it was less reading but I had great
fun talking to a football agent, discussing game play with him and his football
friend, researching game-play, watching clips of games – it was no hardship,
really.About the Book
Banshee Seduction, Montgomery’s Sin Book 1Fantasy, ShapeshifterDiane SaxonBook Rating RSweet, shy librarian Ginny has a problem. Whenever passion strikes, so
do the weeping, wailing voices in her head. Being half banshee, she’s already
run screaming from the underworld and her female relatives, believing love will
find a way with patience and faith on planet Earth.The trouble is, humans just aren’t man enough, and every time Ginny
shows interest in a male, she makes him bleed. It’s going to take more than
just a simple human being to get past Ginny’s defences.Matthew, “The Dane,” fullback for the New York Chameleons, knows the
moment he meets the little fireball that she’s his mate. For two hundred years
he and his dragon have waited for a female capable of setting their world on
fire. Problem is, he doesn’t seem to be able to stop her from going up in
flames long enough to prove he’s more than man enough for her screaming
banshee.Will Matt ever be able to convince Ginny she’s his mate? And will Ginny
get Matt alone long enough to let him appreciate her pyrotechnics?Buy This Book

Legs Anderson since they were kids. Now that he has her in his bed, he has no
intention of letting her go. Aunt Ada has other ideas, even from the grave.GETTING BETWEEN JACK…Orphaned at a young age,
Legs Anderson owes her Aunt Ada everything. The stoic old lady raised her, and
Ada’s warnings about men—and the Harris boys in particular—have stuck, even
after her death. Of course, that could be because Ada stuck around, too.…AND HIS LEGSPatience is not one of

bequeathed to her niece and reinforcing Legs’s fears of commitment. But Jack

A Fading Amaranth by @Shauna_A_Knight #RLFblog #PNR
Shauna Aura Knight author of A Fading Amaranth answers five easy
questions to help readers get to know her better.Author Bio
Shauna Aura Knight
An artist, author, and presenter, Shauna’s work is inspired by magic and
awakening mythic imagination. She’s a fantasy artist and author of paranormal
romance and urban fantasy including Werewolves in the Kitchen, Werewolves with
Chocolate, A Winter Knight’s Vigil, and The Truth Upon Her Lips. Her
mythic artwork and designs are used for magazine covers, book covers, and
illustrations.She travels nationally offering
workshops on the transformative arts of community leadership, facilitation,
dreamwork, and personal transformation, and is the author of numerous articles
and books on those subjects. http://www.shaunaauraknight.comWhat is your go-to meal
when you dine out?Barbecue. I discovered that I have a number of food
intolerances that lead to brain fog, exhaustion, and depression, and I need my
brain at 100% to write and paint. Thus, pasta, pizza, and ice cream are all off
the menu. But barbecue…oh barbecue. Particularly brisket. I also like a good
ribeye. And fresh-squeezed orange juice is kind of like my ice cream these
days.Tell us about your
favorite toy as a child.Star Wars toys, particularly Luke Skywalker. I used to build
elaborate rebel bases out of mud and sticks. Probably won’t surprise you that I
also liked Legos a lot too! When I was thirteen, I started my own small
crafting business to save up money for a sword. It wasn’t quite a lightsaber,
but it was close enough.What are your hobbies?The word “hobby” and the word “work” definitely overlap for
me. I’m an artist and an author, and writing and painting are both things that
I do for enjoyment as well as professionally. One of the things I used to do
for fun is build replica Star Wars scenery for parties. I met up with a bunch
of Star Wars fans years ago and we started throwing parties at sci-fi
conventions; I was in charge of decorating the suite. Each year we’d get more
elaborate. Hoth, Dagobah Swamp, the Emperor’s Throne Room, the Trash Compactor,
Jabba’s Palace, and Cloud City and the Carbonite Chamber. For a while I had a
life-size replica of Jabba the Hutt living in my apartment. If anyone wants
pictures, just contact me, I have them on my portfolio.When you read for pleasure,
what kind of books do you choose?Definitely paranormal romance, particularly my go-to authors
like Emma Holly, Sherrilyn Kenyon, and Karen Marie Moning. I’m also fond of a
good epic fantasy series. An old favorite of mine is the Dragonriders of Pern
by Anne McCaffrey.What kinds of things do
you read when you’re researching a new book?I love the internet. There was one day where I was
researching what I should call underwear in the 1940’s, how long it takes a
hunter to butcher a deer, and researching certain landmarks in New York City. In
fact, Google maps even allowed me to get both birds-eye and on-the-ground views
of Central Park, which allowed me to plan out a fight scene. I have another
vampire romance where the characters are questing for the Grail, so I have a
stack of books on Grail lore, but I was also online researching different types
of meteorites since some legends hold that the Grail is an emerald that fell
from the sky. In other words, I’m a big time geek when I’m doing research for a
new book!About the Book

Why did you write
this book?Dark Stranger is part three in the Chateau Seductions
trilogy. The manager of the art colony is a loyal companion to the owner of the
chateau, Antoine. Since Cameron was first introduced in book 1, Dark Velvet, I
knew he deserved his own story. How did he end up working for a supernatural
being on a remote island when he is human? How does he feel about the
isolation?With the wolf shifters coming to the island and his wariness
of shifters from an earlier altercation, I wanted to see what would happen with
him paired up with one of them. And oh my, the forbidden attraction is hot!
Especially when Nadya resists the idea of her mate being human.What is your favorite
genre to read?Paranormal romance, especially shifter romance at the
moment.Who is your favorite
character from fiction (not including your own)?I’m a sucker for dark, brooding characters. My favorites are
Dracula and Heathcliff, and if we’re including movies, Darth Vader. I’ve always
had a bit of an obsession with him.What are you working
on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?I’m finishing up a short story with one of the characters
from the Chateau Seductions series. Also, I’ve started book two in the Highland
Gargoyles series, the follow up to Knights of Stone.Please tell us about
your latest book.Dark Stranger is part 3 of the Chateau Seductions trilogyWolf shifters come to Chateau
seeking a missing pack member. During an altercation, Cameron Stevens, the
manager of the art colony, is separated from the others. He ends up alone with
Nadya, one of the female shifters.Together, in the forests of DeRoche
Island, they struggle against conflicting feelings. In addition to battling
each other as well as their mistrust, they fight a powerful, inexplicable
attraction to one another—one that leaves them irrevocably entwined.They’re mates? Cameron can’t
comprehend or accept such a thing is possible. They’re two different species
and their worlds don’t mesh. He can’t fight the heated desire burning between
them and her touch is impossible to resist. His heart and mind aren’t on the
same page where she’s concerned. One thing is certain—Nadya is stamped on both.Paranormal, Erotic RomanceShifters, vampires, gargoylesAbout the Book

Allie Ritch is a multipublished author of sizzling scifi and
paranormal romance. She has an active imagination and enjoys entertaining others
through storytelling. Allie lives in her own little world in the Southeastern United
States, where she spends time appreciating the ocean and sunshine.Interview with Allie Ritch
Why did you write this book?Just My Type is the second book in my Vampire Territory series.
After writing the first book, Drinking Partners, I knew I had other characters demanding
to have their stories told, and Eryx pushed his way to the forefront for book two.What is your favorite genre to read?I love paranormal romance and sci-fi romance equally, which is
why I write in those genres too.Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including
your own)?Do I have to pick just one? Because I’ve got a lot of favorites.
Right on the spot, though, I’d have to say Nix from Kresley Cole’s Immortals After
Dark series. Or Eve Dallas from J.D. Robb’s In Death series. Or Rhage from J.R.
Ward’s Blackdagger Brotherhood series. Or… Yeah, it’s hard to pick just one.What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you
in coming months?I’m working on the rest of the Vampire Territory series, so keep
an eye on my blog and/or Twitter feed for announcements about the next release.
I can tell you that book three features Jaide, the only female warrior among Alex’s
guards.Please tell us about your latest book.There’s trouble in vampire territory, and Melody is right in
the middle of it. A new arrival from Eastern Europe named Taspar Tong is out to
take over her masters’ domains using the army he has at his command. Mel is a personal
assistant, not a soldier, and big male vampires scare her.That includes Eryx, the dark-haired warrior who is always watching
her and baiting her with his remarks. If only he didn’t look so sexy. Mel figures
Wess Gage–their human captive–is a far safer love interest, although Wess is part
of the Human Rebellion bent on exterminating all vampires. Can he really see past
his prejudice, or will he turn on her?There are two dangerous men in Mel’s life. She just has to decide
which of them is her type–the one who makes her feel human again, or the vampire
who makes her blood boil?About the Book
