    A mysterious inheritance and magical forces thrust Kara Malone through the ages to the Scottish Highlands of old. There she encounters Alaxandar McLeod, the dark stranger who inhabits her dreams.

    Alaxandar leads the charge to learn the truth about the violent raids against his clan. When his horse almost tramples a beautiful stranger, he is beguiled but skeptical. Is she a spy, or worse, a witch come to lure him with her body and distract him from his quest?

    What’s your favorite book?

    I could never pick just one favorite book. There are so many that I truly love and read over and over. I love most all of Nora Roberts’ series, but I’m partial to The Bride Quartet and Inn Boonsboro Trilogy most recently. I’m an avid, avid reader of paranormal romance and romantic suspense so there are many in that genre I love too. It’s took hard to pick just one.

    What’s a genre you want to write?

    I would like to try YA at some point. I have started a story, but haven’t gotten farther than the first few pages.

    Best writing advice you ever heard?

    Write, write, write. Keep writing no matter what happens.

    What’s the title and genre of your first book, and where can we find it?

    The title and genre of the first book is Time Travel Romance – Highland Stone. It’s the book I’m featuring today. I re-released it in September of 2020 on its 10th anniversary. I got a new cover, and put in additional content.

    Easy

    Coffee or tea? Neither. I don’t drink any hot drinks at all. I love frappes though!

    Sit down dinner or drive through? Prefer sit down dinners when I have time to make them.

    Fold laundry immediately or let it sit? I fold laundry immediately and put it away. I don’t like things sitting around.

    Unload dishwasher right away or use dishes from it? I usually empty the dishwasher when I’m making dinner so there is room to reload.

    Driving for pleasure or avoid driving anywhere? I drive only where I have to go. We don’t really live in an area that promotes driving for pleasure.

    Talk or text? I prefer talking.

    In the northern reaches of Scotland rests Loch Saorach, home to an ancient legend—a dragon. The Matasan family has guarded the loch and its dragon for centuries.
    Over the years Saorach has claimed humans, imbuing them with his fae magic. Connor Matasan, the arrogant Earl of Glencarol, is a recent acquisition. Like all those possessed and transformed by the dragon’s ancient magic, Connor is sith, immortal and commanding powers beyond the human norm.
    Middle aged wife and mother Lila is vacationing in Scotland when Saorach chooses her to join his brood. Her transformation to an eternally young sith is painful and compounded by the loss of everything she holds dear. Waking to a new life, she is utterly dependent upon Connor and his family. Lila feels trapped and resents that the dragon has bound her to Connor, soul to soul, passion to passion: a passion Connor cannot control, a passion Lila fears.
    Will the magic that brought them together destroy them?

    Storm Crazy, Destiny Paramortals #1 by Livia Quinn

    Welcome to Destiny, home to the Paramortals since…well, forever…where human neighbors and their new sheriff live alongside shifters, dragons, vampires and a family of djinn.
    Just don’t tell the humans.
    To former Navy pilot-turned-sheriff Jack Lang, the town of Destiny seemed the perfect place to settle down – safe, sane and secure. But his investigation into a perplexing death shatters the alleged calm and threatens the tranquil home life he hoped to provide for his daughter. Especially, when he catches his mail lady in the act of stealing an antique vase after stepping over said body. Soon, Jack discovers Tempest Pomeroy is an outright trouble magnet who never fails to test the limits of his patience or the law.
    For most of her life, Tempe’s denied her heritage, but as the sheriff’s investigation veers off into the bizarre and intrudes into the existence of the Paramortals, danger heads toward them like an F5 tornado… Look out, Tempest’s about to go Storm Crazy.
    A human sheriff, a storm witch, and the quirky, supernatural town of Destiny. What could go wrong?
