“Teeth” VIDEO

In case you didn’t already know, I’m a huge Lady Gaga fan. I’m a fan of her music and the messages in her lyrics about love, acceptance, and the need to let our inner freak out. I can definitely relate to all three!

So when I started writing Blood Tied, which contains vampires (or vampyren as I call them in my world of Havenbridge) as part of the cast of characters, I went looking for musical inspiration as I tend to do.

That was when I remembered that Lady Gaga sang a song called “Teeth.” Naturally, I hopped onto YouTube and put that video on autoplay to help fan the creative fires of my muse. Even though I put own spin on the vampyren mythos, which makes them not quite how they are portrayed in this video, the creative inspiration worked and it got my muse to show me his teeth!

I hope you enjoy the video as much as I do!

“Blood Tied” Mini-Author Reading #1

It’s Day 2 of the Blood Tied pre-release promotional tour, which includes 30 days of unique content prior to the book’s release on September 7.

I kicked off the tour yesterday on my Facebook page, where I shared a graphic, featuring a line from the book. Today, I’ll be sharing a mini-author reading that will hopefully whet your appetite for more of Thad and his story. After the video, you’ll find the book blurb and the fabulous cover created by Dreamspinner’s Paul Richmond.

Book Blurb:

Thad Blackmoor’s heart is as cold as his icy magical abilities. He considers emotions a waste of his time and prefers to study the arcane, using the sacred books of his coven to grow in his craft. He aspires to supersede his father and elder brother Pierce in power, and now that his younger brother Mason has tapped into the rare warlock power of darkness, he needs to work harder than ever.

But Thad’s ambitions are halted when he saves Aiden Teine, a fire fairy, from a banshee. Thad’s immediate attraction to Aiden catches him off guard and thaws his cold heart for the first time. As Thad, Aiden, and his brothers investigate the connection between the banshee attack and the vampyre and shadow weaver who almost killed them, Thad tries to dodge Ben, a sexy warlock who won’t let him be after a one-night stand.

Their search leads them to the Otherworld, where something even more insidious is at work—something Thad will need more than logic to stand against.
