The Wolf Within by New York Times Bestselling author Cynthia Eden – FBI Special Agent Duncan McGuire spends his days–and his nights–tracking real-life monsters. After a brutal werewolf attack, Duncan begins to change…and soon he becomes one of the very beasts that he has hunted. Dr. Holly Young is supposed to help Duncan during his transition. It’s her job to keep him sane. But the growing desire between them could be a very dangerous thing…because when a vampire and a werewolf mate…their dark need may become an obsession that could destroy them both.
The Vampire Affair by New York Times Bestselling author Vivi Anna – Mak, an unconventional journalist, risks everything including her job to get the goods on billionaire businessman Jonathan Devane, a man who enthralled her for a single passionate kiss months prior, a man who makes her blood race, a man with dark secrets…
The Dark’s Mistress by Michele Hauf – Beguiled by the devil Himself, her only hope was the vampire who could not love her dark and tainted heart.
Blu and Creed’s daughter, Kambriel has come to Paris to ‘find herself’ and finds more than she bargained for when the man who seduces her with extravagant gifts and fine things reveals his true nature. Now she is desperate for freedom.
Johnny Santiago falls for the beautiful vampiress singing at Club l’Enfer, yet he doesn’t expect his rival to be the devil Himself. Can he rescue Kam from the dark prince before she loses her soul and forgets everything and everyone she has ever cared for?
A Taste for Passion by Patrice Michelle – Rana Sterling finally meets the man of her dreams and boy does he know how to push all the right buttons. Only, Mr. Tall, Dark, and Too-Good-to-Be-True turns out to be just that–he’s beyond her world.
After searching seventy years for his reincarnated fiancé, Lucian Trevane finally finds his mate in Rana, but with time working against him and a vengeful vampire determined to destroy the one ray of happiness he’s found, Lucian will have to call upon all his vampire skills and beyond in order to protect Rana and draw her fully into his world.
Captured by Erica Stevens – Captured, taken from her beloved family and woods, Aria’s biggest fear is not the imminent death facing her, but that she will be chosen as a blood slave for a member of the ruling vampire race. Aria’s world is turned upside down when the vampire prince Braith steps forward to claim her. Torn between her loyalties to the rebellion, and her growing love for her greatest enemy, Aria struggles to decide between everything she has ever known, and a love she never dreamed of finding.
Paris After Dark by Jordan Summers – NY homicide detective, Rachel Chang is on a forced leave in Paris grieving over the loss of her partner, when she comes upon a violent attack outside the walls of Cimetiere du Montparnasse. A simple domestic dispute quickly turns into something far more sinister, when Rachel ends up on the wrong side of some very sharp fangs.

What time of day is your favorite time to write?
Night.
When writing you sex scenes, do you write from experience or imagination?
Both
When writing sex scenes, do you write from experience or imagination?
This sounds Ah-maz-ingggg!!! What do you find that is a must have in anything you write?
Action and romance.
Are Alpha males a must when writing paranormal romance?
I think they definitely make it more interesting
what has been your hardest book to right?
Reclamation, the final book in the Ravening Series.
Is this a brand new story for the box set?
No it’s not.
Who are some of your favorite authors ?
Dean Koontz, Steinbeck, JK Rowlings, Stephen King and many many more!
Will you be doing any other box sets?
@FredrickLynn
What influenced this box set?
This question is for all the ladies, are any of the books in this set part of a series?
Captured is the first book in The Captive Series.
Hardest/Easiest things about collaborating on these boxsets?
Time zones. Working with such a great group of authors!
What made you decide to put this anthology together?
Thankfully I was invited by Vivi
Can’t wait for this party! It’s going to be awesome!!
Why do you think box sets have become so popular?
It’s a great way for indy authors to collaborate and find new readers together.
What gets you in the mood & focused on writing? Music, coffee ?
I just make my tea and sit down to write
How much do people you know (or have known) in real life inspire your creation of the characters, their traits, personalities, actions, situations they find themselves in, etc.?
A lot, some characters are a combination of people’s traits and characteristics others are just completely made up.
Where do tou get your inspiration for what to write?
When the idea come to put together boxed set, where does it come from and who decides which writers to approach about it?
Day dreams, dreams, nightmares, other people.
I was approached by Vivi
Have any of the stories in this set been released previously? Do any of you write short stories/novellas before you find an outlet for them?
Captured was released previously. I haven’t written a novella but I am considering it for a spinoff on my Kindred series.
Whats the best part in working with others to do a box set?
Getting to work with some amazing authors and having the opportunity to reach new readers.
how do you choose the book you’re adding to the boxed set-do you all decide or the publisher
I was able to choose which book I wanted to enter.
When you are writing a book, do you try to refrain reading other books because the books may somehow influence your story line or characters?
No but unfortunately I haven’t had the time to read lately that I used to have.
Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend but I’d like to wish you all a great time tonight. What a wonderful group of authors – it should be tons of fun
.
Have you worked with each other before?
I haven’t worked with any of the others yet.
Great boxed set !
Who are your favorite paranormal authors? How would you say your writing is most similiar to?
I was a huge fan of the vampire diaries. I read the first four books over and over again when I was 14.
do you read your fellow boxed set authors and if so which other of their books do you recommend
I haven’t had a chance to read them yet but I plan to soon!
What do you do to help get you through a writers block?
Just keep on writing. I find just powering through helps. If what you write is crap, you can always fix it on a rewrite and sometimes the best stuff comes out of it and you end up traveling paths you never even thought of
Love anthologies! I’m very familiar with a few of the authors & happy to see “new to me” authors work included.
Do you ever get to travel to research books? If so, what your favorite spot?
I wish but I’m going to have to start writing about other countries, I’m thinking Australia first
I’ve read only a couple of books from the authors here so I’m eager to check this anthology out. My question is one for all:
Since these are romances featuring vampires (among other things), what to you is the most alluring part of the vampire as a romantic hero/heroine? Immortality? Blood lust? Etc.?
I’d have to go with the immortality and the danger they represent.
Do u right from imagination or experience?
A combination of both but mostly imagination.
What a data of un-ambiguity and preserveness of valuable experience
regarding unexpected emotions.
Hello there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my twitter group?

Aw, this was an exceptionally good post. Finding the time and actual effort to make a very good article… but what can I say… I put
things off a whole lot and never manage to get anything done.
When someone writes an piece of writing he/she maintains
the image of a user in his/her mind that how a user can be aware of it.
Therefore that’s why this piece of writing is amazing.
Thanks!
