Interview from Ashlynne Laynne

Please Welcome Ashlynne Laynne to Julies Book Review. Ashlynne is giving away three copies of the latest in her Progeny Series, entitled Blood Promise this wk. Make sure you check out the raffle copter to the right of this page! 

Welcome Ashlynne! It is awesome that you have come to visit JBR. My readers are looking forward to hearing all about you! Let's start with, tell us a little about yourself?
Besides being a wonderful author!  I’m Ashlynne Laynne and I live in the States with my husband and son. I’ve been writing a little over two years.

 What kinds of books to do write?
I write erotic inter-racial paranormal romance with vampires, Wiccans and demons. It’s a mouthful, I know. 

 What can we expect from your books? Sex, violence, romance, gore, action, adventure?
 The thing I strive for is “Hard sex with harder love.” My Progeny Series has sex, romance, action, violence, suspense and strong clan ties. As an author, I don’t box myself in to one category.

 Your newest release?
My newest release is entitled Blood Promise. It is the third in my Progeny Series and continues the love story of half-blooded vampire, Ascher Rousseau, and his chosen, Wiccan Shauna McCutchin.
Blood Promise (The Progeny Series #3)Blurb:
“Their love is fated by an ancient prophecy. Now the promise is fulfilled.”
Ascher Rousseau is a half-human, half vampire whose life has been a series of prophecies and predictions. After finding incredible love and passion with Shauna—a Wiccan with powers beyond anything he’s ever known—he seals to her and hopes for happiness. But his enemies seek to destroy all that he loves, and he finds that happiness never lasts for long.
Darkness is descending and a vampiric revolution is nearing. A new brood of hatchlings is born to join their darkling brothers, in preparation for war. A preordained chain of events is set into motion that could lead to the rise of the demonic “cloaked one” and his half-human fallen children, while ending humanity—as we know it.
Can a supernatural love and the loyal bond of a family save the Rousseaus and the world from certain extinction? 



Product Details
Who is your favorite character from one of your stories? Why?
Shauna is my favorite character in my series, because her thought processes and attitude closely resemble my own. She’s a kick-ass heroine and Ascher’s eternal match. I love books with strong heroines and feel that the only place my heroine should submit is between the sheets. 

Would you, if possible, ever want to meet that character?
Hells yeah! Shauna and I would get along famously, because we are so much alike.

 What book have they read that touched you deeply? And why? (yours or someone else’s)
The last book that really touched my heart and made me cry was Fifty Shades Darker by E.L. James. Like this series or not, the author somehow found a way to touch millions of women’s hearts with her story. I will admit reading those books and feeling sucked into the world she created. Thirty million plus copies can’t be wrong.

 Are you currently writing anything? Can you give us any hints?
I’m writing book four of my Progeny Series entitled Blood Fury, the first in my Rocker Series entitled Rocker, and the first in my erotic short series which is untitled.

 Any advice you would like to give aspiring authors?
Write every day and stay encouraged.

 How about some fun stuff? Favorite past time activity?
I am slowly converting my husband into a fanatical horror lover. My favorite past time is relaxing on the sofa cuddled next to him watching movies on our big screen.

 Favorite animal? Do you have one?
I love pets, but have no time for one of my own. If I was going to have a dog, it would be a Yorkie or Schnauzer.

Favorite food?
homemade mac and cheese and pepperoni pizza 

A favorite book or one you can recommend (not your own)
Sylvia Day’s Crossfire Series is, for the most part, a satisfying read.

A favorite author you can recommend and why?
Leanore Elliott is a great erotic romance author. She has a book for every taste—paranormal, western, suspense. Her stories have hot sex and strong plot lines with unforgettable characters.

 What kind of music do you listen too?
 I’m eclectic and enjoy most forms of music with the exception of Bluegrass. Some of my favorite artists are Rod Stewart, White Zombie, Evanescence, Adele, Bruno Mars, Van Morrison and the Kings of Leon. 

Spring, Fall, Winter, Summer? Why? Summer.
 I was born in July, so I guess I’m predisposed to loving the heat. 

 And finally where can we find your books?
 You can find Ashlynne on Facebook, Twitter, Manic Readers, on her Blog and Website. Visit The Progeny Series Facebook Page to learn more about the characters and to keep up with the latest series developments. Ashlynne loves to hear from readers. Contact her by Reader Email.
