Short interview with Chloe Neill & Biting Bad ARC giveaway

Hi Everyone! We are thrilled to have Chloe Neill with us on the blog today. We have a short interview with her and she is giving away an ARC copy of Biting Bad & swag to one lucky winner. Now for the interview.


How many books will be in this series?
There are currently ten books under contract. I'm not certain how many will ultimately be written or published; it depends on sales, Penguin's interest in continuing the series, and if Merit and the other characters can continue to grow and develop.


Do any of your books stand out as your favorite?
Although it was controversial, I'm very proud of Hard Bitten


 Will Ethan and Merit ever marry? Can you give us any secrets about the next book?
Sorry! I have a strict no-spolier policy. :) 


Why do the eyes of your vampires turn silver when they are hungry or aroused?
That's just part of vampires' unique biology, in the same way that their fangs descend under similar circumstances.


Why are the shifters so secretive about what they shift into?
Because it's a very personal matter to them, in the same way that most women would never publicly announce their weight or pant size. :)


 What was the first book you remember reading?
The Little House on the Prairie novels by Laura Ingalls Wilder.

  63. I've read the series multiple times. Whenever I need a good cry, I pick up Hard Bitten. Although, it leaves me as an emotional train wreak for the next few days. Only known cure is ice cream and Drink Deep. Ethan is tied with Roarke for my book boyfriend.
