With the help of her best friend and head waiter Glenn, Rosalie is on the case. But it's not going to be easy.

Christine Feehan has had 16 of her novels listed as a #1 best seller on various lists, 14 of which were on the NY Times.  She is a third degree black belt who taught martial arts for twenty years.  Today we'll be talking to her about her first experience at ThrillerFest, meeting her idols, advice to aspiring writers, her new Shadow Rider series, her upcoming Dark Carousel and what her daily life is like that allows her to write so many books each year.

Dark Series- The series that launched her career and had Time Magazine crediting her, Anne Rice and Joss Whedon for the return of the vampire story.  Her Carpathians are immortal vampire hunters who, if they do not find their lifemate, can turn vampire themselves or must destroy themselves.  

GhostWalker Series - Military thrillers with a paranormal element. Soldiers with some psychic ability are enhanced, but the outcome was more than the government ever foresaw.   This series has a great deal of research into the sciences and could be labeled scifi, but is considered a thriller or paranormal romance. 

Sea Haven Series- Includes both her Drake Sisters and Sisters of the Heart books.

Leopard Series- Shape shifters with high action and high sensuality.

Shadow Series- Newest series has just started with Shadow Rider released this month. Assassins who can travel using shadows.

Don't miss Christian Romance author, Parker J Cole on Thursday, June 16th at 6pm EST! The author of Dark Cherub and the Sins of the Flesh series, joins me to chat about her latest novel in that series, Vengeful Vows. 

 

Book Blurb:

Daffodil Simmons knows how the world works. She’s the spider, all the world is a fly. She has spent her life spinning webs, using people for personal gain. And now, she’s about to spin her biggest one yet – for vengeance. She'll do whatever it takes to get revenge on the two men who abandoned her: her father, and her former lover. When she blackmails her half-sister Leah Westwood’s ex-lover to do her bidding, she tightens her fist around his will and brings him into submission to her plans.

Vincent Miller hates that Daffodil has a noose around his neck, forcing him to do whatever she wants. But he’ll do anything to steal Leah back from Jacob Westwood, the man who destroyed his life, even if it means making a deal with a blue-eyed spider. Yet as Daffodil spins her web, he finds himself entrapped by a silk of a very different kind and intrigued by a woman who only sees him as expendable prey

Everything is going according to plan until another spider, a ghost from Daffodil's past, begins to interfere with their web. It's a battle of wits against a powerful foe. When it comes time to make the ultimate choice, can Daffodil lay aside everything she’s ever known… for something even greater? Can Vincent set aside his need for revenge to go after what’s in front of him?
