Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I was born and raised in the deep south where I still reside with my husband and four canine children. I am the author of the Dark Lords series. I have three published works in the series with many more to come. each novel is a standalone and do not have to be read in order, but are written in chronological order.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Hunter’s Blood is the newest arrival to the Dark Lords series. It involves an ex-vampire hunter, Libby, who has to learn to get along with the supernatural world. Easier said than done, especially with Ethon, a vampire, who keeps showing up. And Ethon finds himself falling for a woman who was taught to hate him. But they both have a past they need to overcome if they have any hope at a future.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I like to listen to rock music when I write. Five Finger Death Punch, Avenge Seven Fold, Highly Suspect to name a few.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
J.K. Rowling and J.R.R. Tolkien will always hold a special place on my shelves. I also love J.R. Ward, Gena Showalter and Johanna Lindsey. I love a series that doesn’t continue with the same characters book after book, but keeps me in the world they have created.
What are you working on now?
Right now I am working on my next novel in the Dark Lords series, Born of the Blood, which will release in the fall.

What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Nothing in life is given. If you want it, work for it.

Writing is next for me. I never stop writing.
