Q+A with Amanda Ashley
EJ: When did you begin writing?
Amanda: Gosh, I don't remember exactly. Probably in the late 70's.
EJ: What brought you to the paranormal genre?
Amanda: Boredom :) I'd written a number of historical romances and I was getting kind of burned out. My agent at the time asked if I would be interested in writing a short paranormal story for an anthology titled The Topaz Man Secrets of the Heart, and I said yes. I wrote
"Masquerade" (now available as an eBook) and I was hooked on vampires. I've been writing them ever since.
EJ: If you could be any paranormal or have any one supernatural talent, what would it be? Why?
Amanda: Wow, that's a good question. I think being a shapeshifter because it would be the most fun.
EJ: Tell us why readers will enjoy your new release.
Amanda: Well...I like it If they're fans of the series, I think they'll like it because so many characters from previous books show up, like Mara and Edna and Pearl, real fan favorites. I think it's my favorite Night book. It has what I think is a cool twist and a yummy hero.
EJ: If your book(s) were being made into a movie, who would you cast for the leading roles? Why?
Amanda: If only that would happen!!!! I would love to see my first full-length vampire book, Embrace the Night, made into a movie.
Casting, hmmm? I don't know. My favorite on-screen vampire is Frank Langella, but he's a little old for the role now. I love Ian from the Vampire Diaries, but I can't picture him as Gabriel. Maybe Chris Hemsworth? For the heroine, I don't know. It would have to be someone with some ballet experience, or at least someone who could fake it.
Night's Promise (Children of the Night #6) by Amanda Ashley.
For beautiful heiress Sheree West, vampires are more than a fantasy. They are an obsession. Night after night, she dresses in black and immerses herself in L.A.'s goth club scene. Searching for a lover who is more than a man. A creature of the dark who lusts for her blood. A legend who lives in the shadows and not just her dreams. Then, one fateful night, she meets him. . .
Derek Blackwood is no ordinary vampire. Descended from a bloodline as old as Cleopatra, and blessed with unearthly powers of seduction, he is everything Sheree wished for—and more. When he takes her in his arms, she is powerless. When he kisses her neck, she is his. But when the full moon rises—and passions flare—something is unleashed in Derek that he's never felt before. Something wild. Something dangerous. Something no vampire can control or stop. . .even for the woman he loves.

Getting Kawhi and PG13 would obviously eliminate some of the team’s depth and cost Process-era players to whom many fans have become attached. However, if you have the ability to add multiple All-Stars, both of whom can create their own shot and play in the fast-paced, pass-heavy Brett Brown offense, you have to make the dream a reality. https://dltutuapp.com/tutuapp-download/
