BITE AT FIRST SIGHT is the story of Rafael Villar, the surly scarred vampire introduced in BITE ME, YOUR GRACE, and Cassandra Burton, widowed Countess of Rosslyn and aspiring physician.

Why Vampires Were Perfectly Suited to the British Aristocracy in the Regency Era.

Hi, I'm Regency Paranomal Romance Author, Brooklyn Ann. My books feature unconventional heroines finding unconventional romance with peers who have fangs. I figured today I'd share why that works so well for me.  Vampires were perfectly suited for the British Aristocracy, which was a major reason why I put them in Regency ballrooms in my Scandals with Bite series. Here are the reasons why that works out so well: They're night owls. Most of the balls and operas and festivities in the regency went from dusk till dawn. A vampire's nocturnal behavior would be unnoticed in this environment. The Window Tax Seriously, there was a tax on how many windows one had on their home. People often boarded up their windows to avoid the tax. This was beneficial to vampires in that no one thought it amiss if they did so to protect themselves from the sun An Age of Enlightment In an age of reason, vampires are regarded as mere folklore. This disbel...

The Novel Experience in Las Vegas!

I am excited to announce that I'll be attending   The Novel Experience Convention  and book signing in Las Vegas in April! Aside from writing, READERS are my major priority this year. This convention will be the perfect opportunity for me to meet and interact with bloggers and fellow bookworms. There will be parties and dinners and a lot of opportunities to just hang out. I'm planning on bringing some fun swag and I'm going to take somebody out to Bubba Gump Shrimp because I don't want to eat alone. I will also be joining a group of historical authors to treat readers to wine and appetizers Friday evening. There will also be authors hosting dinners, taking readers on Vegas tours and checking out some awesome shows. I hear there's even going to be a pub crawl!  The signing is free and open to the public. It will be my first time signing at an event and I'm nervous and excited. I have some really cool goodies planned for my table, and of course I will have ...

Celebrating ONE BITE PER NIGHT! + Giveaway!

After what has felt like an eternity, the second book in my "Scandals With Bite" series is finally here! I celebrated on Saturday with a signing at my local bookstore. They put me in the kids' toy section which was kinda weird, but I still had fun. I also raffled off baskets full of goodies and books donated by my awesome fellow Casablanca authors. Again, huge thanks to you all! And I took pictures with some readers!  And speaking of readers, so far the reception has been very good.  This one from "Lover of Romance" still has me grinning. " The story starts with humor and witty come backs, and the you fall in love with the characters immediately. Vincent is a awesome hero....I could just kiss him all over I adored him so much. He is honorable, does have some issues thinking he is evil and all that, but he cares about others, and he is so sweet and protective with Lydia, you can't help but be charmed by his manner. Lydia is stron...

A Mortal's View of a Vampire's behavior: a deleted scene.

             One time Ashlyn Chase posted a deleted scene from one of her awesome books and I thought it was such a fun idea that I'd share one from my upcoming release, ONE BITE PER NIGHT The only reason that this one was cut was due to word count and flow of the story. But my editor and I still thought it was hilarious. A little background info without spoilers. At the end of book one, BITE ME, YOUR GRACE , Angelica Ashton, Duchess of Burnrath and newly turned vampire is charged with sponsoring the Lord Vampire of Cornwall's mortal ward in society so he can marry her off before she finds out about the vampire world. And anyone who's read BITE ME, YOUR GRACE knows that Angelica is a rebel and adores mischief. One of her first acts of taking Lydia under her wing is to indulge in one of her favorite hobbies, dressing as a male and seeing sights of London that are unfit for maidens. And here's how that went:      ...

GUEST LAUNCH PARTY + GIVEAWAY: Legend of the Highland Dragon by Isabel Cooper

Please welcome Isabel Cooper, whose brand new Sourcebooks Casablanca paranormal romance series starts this month with LEGEND OF THE HIGHLAND DRAGON! In today’s post, she shares with us what has inspired her the most in her writing… I started playing Dungeons and Dragons when I was eleven. I’d already been kind of a geek before that: read the Lord of the Rings series a bunch of times, played a whole lot of video games,   and had a taste for the weird and supernatural in my fiction. (Also horse books. So many horse books, until I learned to ride and realized that actual horses were not your friends, tried to step on your toes pretty constantly, and had the same, er, biological output as any other animal.) But my geekdom didn’t really crystalize until I hit eleven. Then, facing my fifth strabismus surgery and inspired by the example of the boy down the road, who got a Sega Genesis when he had to have an operation on his back, I demanded a bribe in order to go qui...
