Jack's routine investigation
of rogue wolf sightings threatens to uncover both Bianca's secrets and her
passionate nature. Can she trust him enough to make the sacrifice her destiny
demands?
Born albino, Bianca was spared death in infancy when her
mother found safe haven among the ghosts and misfits of Amazon Pack. As
Guardian of Amazon, she protects the hidden pack with a ferocity that belies
her delicate appearance.
Kari: What
inspired you to become a writer?
Vanessa: I
have always loved writing and reading, and just thought I'd give it a try!
Being a stay at home mom, I had the kind of flexible schedule that made "a
little writing every day" easy-ish to accomplish, and it all just rolled
from there! There were a couple of false starts that make me cringe to read
them now, but I kept working at it and the rest is history.
Kari: Where
do you come up with the ideas for your books?
Vanessa:
Usually I have something I want to write about in some way, a larger
concept theme, and then I wait until the characters show up in my imagination
that suit the story I had in mind. Other times, I can be inspired by a place or
a person.
Kari: What
exciting projects are waiting in the wings?
Vanessa:
The sequel to Amazon, of course, United, is due out December 21st, and I
also have some other projects coming out in the meant time: a novella for Musa
Publishing's shared world series "The Wiccan Haus" called Shifter's
Dance coming in November, and a science fiction courtroom drama (with pirates!
and boxing!)called "Fight or Flight" for Liquid Silver Books coming
out December 10.
Kari: Who
is your favorite literary character and why?
Vanessa: Oh,
I have so many! It's so hard to pick one. Since it's October, and men all over
are growing out their Octobeards, I'm going to choose Beatrice from Much Ado
About Nothing. She's funny and smart and provides some awesome quotables:
"He who hath a beard is more than a youth. He who hath no beard is less
than a man. He who is more than a youth is not for me. He who is less than a
man? I am not for him." Shakespeare had the makings of a great romance
heroine in her. (for the record, I'm a full-blown pogonophile, I love beards!)
Kari: Just
for fun, if you could be any animal, what would it be and why?
Vanessa:
Let's see, looking around my house right now there are dogs sleeping on my
favorite couch and on the bed, only disturbed for food, play, and cuddles. I
wouldn't mind that life!
Thanks Vanessa!
Vanessa North was born
in New England but moved to the South as a teenager, where she learned to
appreciate biscuits and gravy, bluegrass, and that most welcome of greetings:
“Hey y’all!” She has a degree in Mass Communication but has long since
abandoned journalism in favor of writing romance. Instead of telling the news,
V would rather tell stories.
Vanessa has a voracious appetite
for books and loves all kinds. She writes obsessively: every day brings new
ideas and stories to tell. When she’s not buried in a book—hers or someone
else’s—you can find her taking thousands of photographs of the people she
loves.
She lives in Northwest
Georgia with her handsome husband, not-quite-civilized twin
boy-children, and a pack of dogs.
