Blood Moon

Int’l Bestselling Author

Autumn and her boyfriend were on the outs. After six months together, he’d decided they weren’t compatible. Determined to prove him wrong, she agrees to go hiking one October weekend. While she pictured a romantic stroll around the lake, he booked them a grueling weekend in Yellowstone, where he promptly humiliated her, dumped her, and left her all alone in the wilderness. Yet again, she’d fallen for a guy who treated her like a project. All she wanted was love and acceptance. By the time Autumn dried her tears, snowflakes covered the trail, darkness had fallen, and her demise appeared imminent.

Ronan Cormac had some decisions to make. Though he’d become one of the most sought after agents in Hollywood, years of superficial relationships had worn him down, making him long for a meaningful connection. In other words, the wolf shifter was ready for a mate and LA made it impossible for him to find one. When his sister called him home for a family emergency, Ronan rushed back to Yellowstone. In order to save the Druids, his pack, he’d have to find a mate and become the Alpha before the Blood Moon.

I watched as she curled up more, then I lay on her, my warm furry form offering much needed protection from the snow. Still, her teeth chattered. “So cold,” she murmured as she buried her head in my fur. For a moment, I froze. So did she. She glanced at me as if trying to process she’d bedded down with a wolf, then she took my head in her hands and stared me in the eyes. I was struck by how delicate her features were, the smattering of freckles around her nose, her small full lips, and most of all, the intensity of her emerald colored eyes. “Thank you.” She planted a kiss on my cold wet nose.

Then my wolf licked her face. I had nothing to do with it. Somehow, my once fierce beast had become a puppy in her arms.

“Stay with me?” She blinked back a few salty tears.

I would know, since I’d inadvertently tasted them while offering wolf kisses. My wolf whined in response. She must’ve taken it as a sign of agreement. Next thing I knew, she had curled up into me, and wound herself through my legs.

“You don’t mind that I’m fat and ugly, do you boy?” She let out a hollow laugh. “You wouldn’t call me names and abandon me in the wilderness would you?”

My wolf whimpered. Who would ever be cruel to this sweet creature? Her perfume would forever be imprinted on my memory, along with those amazing eyes. As I inhaled the different smells attached to her, I picked up on cat and my ears went back.
“You smell Sir Purr?” She giggled as she ran her hands through my fur like I was some common domesticated beast. Actually, I rather liked it, until I picked up on some other scent. A male. I could feel a growl forming in my throat.

She sighed. “That must be Joel.” She shook her head. “He has that effect on a lot of people. And wolves, too, I guess.”

Now I had a name and a scent. Joel was in pretty big trouble when I met up with him. I caught her yawning and laid my head on hers to encourage her to sleep. She was safe now. The elements were no longer a threat. If I had my way, Joel wouldn’t be, either.

Featured Book: Blood Moon

Hullo! Care for a spot of tea? Sorry, I’ve been watching a lot of Penny Dreadful on Netflix in preparation for my next series. Okay. Never mind. I watch it because it’s dark and different and every once in awhile I need some downtime.

How long have you been a writer and how did you come to writing?
Well, I first published in June of 2013. Inspired by the success of Fifty Shades of Grey, I wrote the naughtiest story I could think up. Sin at Sea spawned The Sinful Series, and I was hooked on the whole process.

How did you come up with this storyline?
While scrolling through Facebook one day, there was a video about wolves returning to Yellowstone. The wheels started turning. What if they weren’t really wolves, but wol fshifters who saved the park? The Druids were born.

What are the best and the worst aspects of writing?
I love coming up with the story ideas. The hardest part is working through all the plot holes to make the story work.

What inspires you to write?
I have to. Seriously. If I take too much time off from writing, I feel it. Writing keeps me balanced. It has become part of my identity. Some people exercise, I write. If I didn’t write, I’d eat more. No one wants that.

How did you conduct your research for Blood Moon?
I watched videos, I surfed the net. Good times.

What would your friends say is your best quality?
My sense of adventure. Okay…I love to travel. Is that the same thing?

Are reader reviews important to you?
Reviews are everything. I’m lucky to have built a really wonderful tribe named Emma’s Elite. I share a FREE book every week. They read and review. I recently published a book they helped create through a series of polls.

What do you do when you don’t write?
I’m all about some travel. I prefer cruises, which is why my first book was set on a cruise ship and the rest of the series were all destination romances. In fact, I’m eyeing a 10-day cruise in May.

Tell us about your other books.
As of today, I have four series and five standalones. They’re a variety of genres, like romantic comedy, romantic suspense, paranormal, and contemporary romance. The settings vary, although most of my recent stuff is set in Charlotte, North Carolina, where I live, and the surrounding areas. I write about whatever interests me at the time and try to create characters readers can relate to.

If you could share one thing about yourself that you would like readers to know, what would it be?
Chocolate should be a food group. White chocolate is blasphemy. My life should have more wine in it.

Thank you for hanging out with me today. I usually have these conversations over sushi, so I’m going to go get some now. No reason for both of us to miss out. Have a wonderful day!

What made her decide to be an romance author?

Simple.

How else was she going to parlay her two favorite past times into a career?

Emma is single and loving it. Like her first character, Alysin, Sin for short, she doesn’t believe in settling or in settling down. She loves to indulge in her passions whenever the mood strikes and enjoys keeping all of life’s cliche moments spicy.

Known for her sense of humor, Emma surrounds herself with friends whose antics often become the source of book fodder. Her ideal situation would be to explore the Caribbean while writing. She pursues that dream daily.
