Welcome to the first of two launch parties I’ll be having here at Bitten By Books this summer! (The second will be in a couple of weeks, for a release coming out under my real name, David B. Coe.) I want to thank Rachel and Bitten By Books for hosting me again this year. This is my fourth year with an event on the site and I’m really pleased to be back.
The Siren’s Touch is about a particular kind of siren, a rusalka. I hope you’re excited to know exactly what that is!
Perhaps you’ve heard of the opera by Dvořák? No? I hadn’t either—I’m no opera buff. But I learned of it when I began researching this fascinating kind of ghost from Slavic mythology. I stumbled upon the existence of rusalki when I fell in Read More »

The last time I made an appearance on Bitten by Books, it was to promote my genre mashup, Amish Vampires in Space. I talked about how that book came to be, and a little about the rollercoaster my life became following the book’s release—everything from unexpected mentions by the Washington Post and The Tonight Show, to my publisher being sold and the new owner deciding he didn’t want my book as part of his catalog. (Despite the buzz…and the positive reviews.) I also mentioned that I was trying to figure out what to write next.
As a kid I fancied myself a bit of a tomboy. There’s just myself and my sister in our family, no brothers. So I took it upon myself to fill the void I was positive my father had in his life due to the lack of a boy child. I built ramps to jump my bike, went on motorbike rides with him, and followed him around on weekends asking him a gazillion questions about cars and engines and stuff like that. Plus, I hated going clothes shopping with my mother and sister (l liked clothes, just not the shopping part!). All that aimless wondering through shops. Argh! I’d rather go fishing with dad.
Bloodsucking vampires, psychotic faeries, and a snarky, kick-butt heroine—that sums up the Ivy Granger series in a nice, neat little package. But the world of Ivy Granger isn’t nice and neat. It’s messy.
Just ask Ivy.

Bad, Bad, Angels: So, So Good
Angels have long intrigued romance readers. What’s a better example of tension and conflict than a heavenly creature succumbing to human weaknesses? When depicted with recognizably human failings, I think a love story with angels in the center ratchets up.

Lia interviews Kieran from A Leopard’s Path
I love revisiting characters, especially if it for the chance to interview them. However, the couple from A Leopard’s Path is different. One reason is their story doesn’t end with their book. Their HEA Read More »
