I’m over at Julie K. Rose’s Blog being interviewed about music soundtracks! You can listen to it here and read the full transcript here at Julie’s Writer Soundtrack blog.

And tomorrow/Wednesday the 30th, I’m doing an Author Day at the Raven (Mandy and Michelle’s place!) from noon to three eastern/nine to twelve pacific. I’ll be talking about Stripped, my story in the What Happens in Vegas anthology as well as Celebration for the Dead and my upcoming release, Fated from Samhain. Come by and hang out for a while, say hello and hopefully win something too!

Blurb: Vampire Hunter Minx Rodriguez decides to mix a little business with pleasure when she heads to Mexico to celebrate El Dia de los Muertos. She’s hot on the trail of the vampire who not only took her hostage and tortured her but also killed her friends and family.

Connor Bell finds himself in love with a Vampire Hunter who’s skipped town without notice — much like he did to her just two weeks before. He heads to Mexico to find her and make things right.

Even as they work through their problems and plan a feast to celebrate the lives of those they’ve lost to the Oathbreakers, the threat remains. A Hunter’s job is never done and there’s a job to do in Mexico. The question remains as to whether Minx and Connor can survive what’ll be asked of them both.

And the lovely Dannette is having me at her blog today so stop over to say hello and enter yourself into a contest to win a book!

So tomorrow, the first Witches Knot book in a year will come out from Ellora’s Cave and I’m pretty excited about it. Witches Knot was the first universe I wrote, when I created Triad in 2004. Since then it’s encompassed a lot of things I hadn’t envisioned when I first sold Triad but I’ve loved writing it and I’ve really loved the Charvez witches and all their family and friends.

In Vengeance Due, I brought readers into Aidan’s secret - that there were vampires who weren’t so warm and fuzzy. Vampires who in fact broke the oath that kept the rest of their kind in check. Into town sweeps a group of humans who hunt these oathbreakers. Kael Gardener and his crew of hunters comes to New Orleans and meets Simone Charvez and of course those of you who’ve read Vengeance Due know, Kael and Simone get their HEA after some major angst and oodles of emo.

At the same time, one of the hunters, Minx (Melanie Rodriguez) meets Aidan’s brother Connor, a cop of sorts and a slow romance begins.

Celebration for the Dead takes place not too long after Vengeance Due ends (which is before Thrice United, confused yet?) and it takes us to Las Brisas, Mexico for El Dia de Los Muertos and right smack dab into the middle of a fight between Minx and Connor and he’s got some making up to do and Anton Perdue is back…

So as it happens, April 4th I’ve got a new chapter in the Witches Knot universe coming out from Ellora’s Cave. I’m pretty excited because I’ve wanted to do Minx and Connor’s book since I wrote Vengeance Due in 2006! Anyway, I’ll always have a special place in my heart for my Witches Knot books because they’re where I started and they’ve given me so much enjoyment and creative energy over the years.

Anyway, I thought for Titilating Tuesday, an excerpt from CfoD would be fun…

Adult content behind the jump - 18 and over only please…
