When you’re writing a series, especially one that you hope to have run for a long time, you have to build a world and also create characters to inhabit that place. For The Calling is Reborn vampire novels, the world was New York City because I wanted to share with you the city that I love and where I spend so much time. As for the characters, Diana and Ryder were alive for me from the moment they started screaming in my head. As I wrote their story, DARKNESS CALLS, I knew they’d be with me for some time. But then I had to give birth to other characters for future books and also, secondary characters to just populate the world. Sometimes those secondary characters became so intriguing that I knew they would get stories as well. That’s what happened with Blake and Stacia. They were just too much fun and too much of everything. I knew they needed their own stories. For fun, Harlequin and I did a little novella with them that really showed the best and worst of their personalities. Today I’m offering that novella, DESIRE CALLS, as a free download. I hope you like Blake and Stacia as much as I do. Blake gets his eternal love in FURY CALLS, an RT Book Club Top Pick. Stacia earns her happily-ever-after in KISSED BY A VAMPIRE which is the only Calling book not set in New York. Instead, Stacia flies off the South Beach to escape the human wanna-bes in New York who are making her crave the love Stacia doesn’t think she can ever have.
