Interview with Victoria Vane (Part Two) + Giveaway

This is Part Two of Victoria Vane’s gracious and very extensive interview with us (for part one click HERE).

Interview with Victoria Vane (Part One) + Giveaway

Today (and tomorrow!) we are incredibly pleased to welcome historical romance author Victoria Vane to Book Lovers Inc. Victoria has, by turns, enthralled, enraged, and enraptured us with her four-part novella series featuring the Devil Ludovic DeVere. In conjunction with the review of the fourth (but it turns out not totally final) story in the series, Victoria sat down and answered a few (lot) of our questions about her writing process and the series. She also let us make a few inquiries of DeVere and Diana, the hero and heroine of this Georgian-era erotic romance. Come back tomorrow for some detailed information on all the books in this luscious series, and some words from those two personages.

But first, let’s hear from their author, Victoria Vane.

Stella: Hi Victoria, can you please tell us a bit about yourself?

Victoria: The basics: I’m 48 years old, a mother …

Romance and Me: Werewolves Forever!

Hey Everyone!

In honour of today’s guest author (Michele Hauf who is celebrating the release of her latest novel: Forever Werewolf) I thought it was time we talked paranormal romances and more precisely about my favourite paranormal creatures: werewolves!

Though they weren’t the first supernatural species I discovered or read about (those were vampires), when I read Bitten by Kelley Armstrong (I think maybe the 4th paranormal/urban fantasy I’ve come across) it changed everything. It opened my eyes to a new world and Kelley Armstrong’s Women of the Otherworld series became one of my favourite UF series and werewolves my favourite supernatural creatures. I even championed them when Moira Rogers held the epic contest between vamps and wolves.

You want to know why werewolves are dear to my heart? Let me tell you just a few of the reasons:

werewolves are warm …

Stella: Hi Michele, can you please tell us a bit about yourself?

Michele: I’ve been writing since the early 90s. I spend a lot of time behind the keyboard but try to get away and exercise when I can. I love to muddle about in my tiny little succulent garden, and dread the oncoming winter because cabin fever sucks. Fortunately my stories do entertain me, so I can pretend I’m walking the streets of a summery Paris, even as the snow blasts my windows just over my shoulder.

Stella: Describe a typical day …
