AUTHOR Q&A

How would you describe this series?

The books are fast-paced paranormal thrillers with both action and romance. When I began writing this series, I set out to create something that would challenge readers. I believe most readers are smart people who enjoy a thought-provoking book. Heartblaze is told from the point of view of multiple characters and takes place in the present-day as well as the past (much like Outlander.) These books are not for people looking for light and fluffy reading, nor for readers completely unfamiliar with the paranormal genre.

Is this series appropriate for all ages?

No. It is not appropriate for children. The series is written for adults, young adults, and mature teens.

What types of creatures are in the novel?

Quite a number: vampires, werewolves, werebears, ghosts, witches, and fae. All of them are portrayed in new ways. For example, the werewolves are shifters who channel animal spirits from the distant past. The fae have their own unique language that plays a role in some of the books. It’s a functional language that I spent a year developing!

Ratings and reviews

Was going to buy this from google play books ages ago since had no amazon funds but did have google funds, but it never showed up to buy it, and asked what was up asking the writer via email about google books, and ended up getting a free copy. That may have had more to do with me having read every single heartblaze series books out and every other book by this writer, and when the newest {4} went up for pre-order got it on amazon since who knows when it will finally show up here. The writer is great; google play as a seller venue way less than good.
