Welcome Laurie London–Gorgeous mountains, hot vampires, and a contest!
Welcome Laurie London who is about to take readers by storm with her sizzling hot new Vampire series.
A quick reminder that the Olivia Cunning contest is live through Friday and we will have the talented Elisabeth Naughton and Shiloh Walker coming up this weekend!
Today's prize is a copy of ALL of these books with a holiday theme ALLURING TALES HOT HOLIDAY NIGHTS, Wrapped in Seduction, and Santa Baby.
To enter chat it up with Laurie! She is excited to tell you about her new Vampire series and believe me you WANT to know about this series. It's a very True Blood kind of edge.
Now onward to Laurie and Laurie's gorgeous view!
Since I don't really have an office and since a picture of my couch would be boring, here's a picture of my view when I'm writing on my laptop from the living room. It's looking east toward the Cascade Mountains as the sun is coming up, and that foggy mist is hovering over a bog behind our pasture.
Because my husband works from home, he uses the actual office. He says it's large enough for both of us, but who can write while listening to him talk on conference calls all day? I've got a computer armoire in the bedroom, but I feel too enclosed staring into a cabinet all day. Instead, I write from the dining room table in the middle of the house. Although the natural light is nice and I get good vibes from the color (see my whimsical Daniel Ng print), privacy is my main problem. My solution (other than heading to a local coffee shop)–a nice pair of noise-canceling headphones. I turn them on with no music which cancels out the ambient sounds of my family or I listen to music without lyrics. My husband and kids know that if I have my headphones on they can't pester me. At least that's the theory!
Now onward to the questions!
I'll start – Laurie — what music did you listen to while writing your first HQ Vampire book? And readers do you ever associate a book with music?
Cheers! And let me leave you with a glimpse at Laurie's first book.
BONDED BY BLOOD
Coming February 2011
Deep within the forests of the Pacific Northwest, two vampire coalitions battle for supremacy—Guardian enforcers who safeguard humanity and Darkblood rogues who kill like their ancient ancestors.
Now, Guardian team leader Dominic Serrano will be forced to choose between the vengeance he craves and the woman he can't live without…
Movie location scout Mackenzie Foster-Shaw has always known that she's cursed to die young. No one can protect her from the evil that has stalked her family for generations—vampires who crave her rare blood type. Until one afternoon in a wooded cemetery, she encounters an impossibly sexy stranger, a man she must trust with her life.
For Dominic, a man haunted by loss, Mackenzie satisfies a primal hunger that torments him—and the bond they share goes beyond heat, beyond love. She alone can supply the strength he needs to claim his revenge. But in doing so, he could destroy her…
