Welcome, Amy! Please start off by telling us a little about yourself.

Like a lot of romance authors, I used to be a lawyer. I don’t know why there are so many of us, but it’s an interesting phenomenon. Maybe because lawyers tend to read a lot? Anyway, I’m a mom of five, so life is never boring around my house. I’m also an Army veteran, which really comes in handy when you need to get five kids out the door fast.

What genres do you write?

Paranormal romance and contemporary romance. I also have a sci-fi romance out there, as well as a women’s fiction novel.

How many books have you published?

I think I’m at 15 now, which six releases planned for this year.

What can a reader expect when picking up one of your books for the first time?

Very steamy stories (no closed doors here!) with strong heroines and ultra-possessive alphas. No cliffhangers, ever, and happily-ever-afters always.

What were your inspirations for Feral Protector?

One of my first books was a sci-fi space opera romance set on a post-apocalyptic prison planet. Think Mad Max but heavier on the romance. I love that kind of worldbuilding, and I really wanted to write a shifter romance in a dystopian world. I like putting a different twist on the lycan myth.

Please share your setting for Feral Protector. Have you ever lived or visited there? If so, what did you like most?

Feral Protector is set 70 years after The Fall, which is how the characters in this world refer to the collapse of human civilization after the Lykos-D virus infected the population. There are some subtle climate change themes in the book, because the virus probably spread due to melting glaciers, which released an ancient “werewolf” virus. There is actually some scientific basis to this, as scientists today worry about long-dead viruses and bacteria getting released into the modern world. We don’t have an immunity built up to some of these nasty diseases, so there is a great deal of concern about warmer temperatures melting the ice.

How did you research or prepare?

The heroine, Eden, is a doctor, so I wanted to make sure I got all the medical terminology she uses correct. I also write about werewolves in many of my books, and I’ve done a lot of research on wolf behaviors. There are some really interesting facts about how wolves communicate with each other and how they arrange themselves in their pack hierarchy.

When did the writing bug first bite?

Like a lot of authors, I started writing very young. I used to make books out of construction paper. My youngest son does this same thing now, which is really cute to see.

Who are your favorite authors, book/series?

I read just about everything! I love Anne Rice, whose books first got me interested in paranormal romance. She also has some incredible historical fiction books, including one about castrati in eighteenth century Italy. I’m also a huge science fiction and fantasy reader. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve read The Lord of the Rings.

Do you have any hobbies or special things you like to do in your spare time?

My kids play a ton of sports, so we’re usually on the go.

Boxers, brief or commando?

Boxer briefs!

Favorite eye color?

Hazel

Do you have a set writing schedule or do you just go with the flow of life and write when you can?

I can get a lot of writing done if I wake up several hours before my family lol.

Hey all! I have a little snippet from Stallion Shield to share with you. Hope you enjoy it <3:

It was too late to close the floodgates now. Need pulsed through him, and he took in a deep breath. Sucking air greedily into his lungs, swallowing down Jessenia’s fresh basil scent. It tickled his senses, teased him with promises of passion and joy, and before he could stop himself, he lowered his head.

“Furio,” she whispered his name, but she was pulling him closer too.

The action meant something. It just had to, right? He felt the growl build up inside his chest, and his lips came crashing down onto hers.

Holding on to his self-control by a thread, Furio claimed Jessenia’s mouth with all the pent-up passion he’d been saving for her for months now. The world seemed to tilt on its axis, and fuck if he didn’t hear the tide turn from all the way out there, deep in the Pine Barrens.

Kissing Jessenia was addictive, and yet it wasn’t what he’d been meaning to do. Their shared kiss was not the soft, fairytale whisper he’d wanted to give her. It wasn’t patient, or calm, or kind. No, it was like him, rough around the edges, demanding, and a little unrestrained.

They collided like two opposing forces, and the result was a phenomenon unlike any other. Like light and dark, refined and raw, soft and hard. She was his perfect counterpart. As if she’d been waiting for this moment too, she sighed and melted into him.

Jessenia’s throat vibrated with her moan as she accepted his kiss, and even more astounding, kissed him back. Furio’s body hummed with anticipation, and barely restrained power as he continued to test and seek out her lips.

Encouraged by the not so small fact she hadn’t slapped his face, he pushed his tongue inside the hot cavern of her mouth. Testing, tasting, pushing his advantage until he felt the tiny pricks of her nails digging into the flesh of his shoulders. But still, she was not pushing him away. That fact had his blood singing in his veins. If anything, his piccolina was dragging him even closer.

“Come here,” he growled, lifting her up until she wrapped her legs around his waist.

Blood Song is here!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PDWR88Y

Her blood sings for him, will he answer the call?

Aleksei Delov is the owner of Timeless Possessions, part of a global conglomerate of corporations. The immortal Vampire Prince is renowned for his ability to acquire authentic, priceless antiques for his various private clientele. Alek’s reputation is everything, until he meets her.

Carina Martin has a unique talent to find objects and to identify them by touch. She uses it for other people in order to eke out a meager living among other normals along the East Coast, but there is more to life than that, and she is dying for a piece of it.

When someone robs Aleksei and passes off fakes in his name, he tracks Carina down and offers his patronage in exchange for the use of her abilities. But he is not prepared for his reaction to the beautiful normal. Can he resist the female, or will he be seduced by her blood song?
