Guest romance author Grace Callaway + Giveaway


Please welcome romance author Grace Callaway! 

What inspired the writing of Abigail Jones?
I had just finished writing Her Husband’s Harlot, the first in my erotic Regency series, and I was looking for a new creative challenge. While I am a historical reader at heart, I do love paranormals, and I thought, Why not combine the two? The two genres have a lot in common, I think, in terms of the world building and levels of eroticism (I like to read and write hot!); in fact, when you examine the "horrid" or "sensation" novels of the 1800's, with the emphasis on the gothic supernatural, the connection between the two becomes quite obvious.
So I drew upon one of my favorite gothic stories of all time, Jane Eyre, and created Abigail Jones, a sheltered young woman who is cursed with terrifying erotic visions. When her aunt dies, Abby goes to work at Hope End, a gothic castle, and catches the eye of its mysterious master, Lord Huxton … who just happens to lead a secret life as a demon slayer. As the passion between them blazes, Abby comes to a startling realization: her visions and his quest for vengeance are intricately linked, and they will have to battle the ultimate evil together if their world—and their love—are to survive.

Book tour Lie To Me by Tori St. Claire


Hi, everyone!  Thanks so much for hosting me today.  I love being over here at Bitten By Paranormal Romance – it’s always a fun day for me!



To change things up from my blog tour a little bit, I thought we’d meet a secondary character from Lie to Me and a man who jumped out of the pages and had to be tied to a chair before he commandeered my story – Misha.  I caught up with him before he headed out to someplace he wouldn’t name, doing something else he wouldn’t name.  Getting him to talk was equally difficult.  But there are a few newsworthy tidbits in here, I believe.

Indie romance convention


I am excited to share some news with you I will be hosting an indie (what most people call self-publishers) romance convention next year. I have toyed with this idea in my head for over 2 years because I feel the indie world needs something for them and their readers. I had the privilege to share this idea to Gabrielle Bisset, Tina Flosom and Danielle Blanchard this year and they really liked it. So I decided I would give it a try. I am in the process of getting everything together.  As of right now I have the date, hotel, blog and a few authors. You’re more than welcome to join the blog and follow the progress, but the site won’t officially launch until October.



If you’re an indie romance author and would like to be in the list of attendees please click here

If you’re a blogger and would like to be a featured blogger click here

If you’re a indie reader please join the site and keep up with the progress as it grows and if you have a favorite indie romance author let them know about the convention you never do know if they might sing up. 

I hope this convention will be something that will excite readers that are fans of these fabulous authors, so it will continue to grow each year.
