I’d like to welcome author Liena Ferror to
A Sovereign Spot today and thank you for taking the time to talk to me.
Can you tell us a little about yourself?
First of all, thank you for having me here today, J. I currently live in South Central Pennsylvania with my wonderfully supportive husband and beautiful daughter. My son is currently serving in the U.S. Navy. My home is a small zoo with five cats, one dog, one bird, and some fish. When I’m not writing, I’m reading, making jewelry, or spending time with my family.
How long have you been writing?
I’ve been writing seriously for two and half years now. Prior to that, I had my nose constantly buried in a book. My husband made an off-handed comment about the fact I read so much I could probably write a book. After many starts and stops,
Queen of the Ghost Drakon, the first in
The Risen series, is being released today.
Tell us a little about your favorite character.
I can’t honestly say I have a favorite character. I try to create my characters with traits that I myself would like to see in a person. Strength, compassion, etc…But I try to make my heroes as hot as possible. Hot enough to singe their female companions. They are stubborn and hardheaded lycans and vampires while my heroines are demons, vampires, lycans and a little bit of dragon and fae mixed in.
Who inspired or inspires you the most?
Prior to beginning my writing career I read Nora Roberts, J.D. Robb, Sherrilyn Kenyon and Christine Feehan to name a few. I also like a good suspense or action/adventure by authors like Clive Cussler and Dan Brown. I’ve read so many books by so many authors that they’ve all influenced me in one way or another to create a style all my own.
Are there any genres you’d like to try writing in?
I would love to write a romantic suspense in the future. I don’t see myself writing like a Dan Brown or Clive Cussler so I’d stick to the romantic side of things and venture out from that genre into different sub-genres.
Are you working on anything new?
Right now, I’m working on the third book in
The Risen Series. It’s another paranormal shifter romance dealing with two very different people who have to come to terms with the fact that they are mates. The story tells of their trial as a newly mated couple and the two different worlds they come from.
When you’re not writing, what are some of your favorite things to do?
I love to read. When my nose isn’t buried in the pages of a book or I’m not reading an e-book, I like to make jewelry. I find it very hands-on and relaxing. Otherwise, I’m doing something with my family, be it watching TV or going out and about.
Just for fun, tell us:
What’s your favorite vacation spot?
I can’t honestly say I’ve taken very many vacations. I’m a homebody. I did go to Boston and loved the city and the accents!
If you could own any car you wanted what would it be?
The new Dodge Challenger. There is just something about the car that I love. I certainly wouldn’t kick it out of my driveway.
If you could do it all over again, is there anything you’d change about your life?
No. I like the way my life has turned out though it wasn’t always a smooth road. I’m happily married and have two wonderful children. I couldn’t ask for anything more.
Thanks for sharing those interesting facts. Now, tell us about your book.
Here’s a Blurb:
A vampire’s ultimate fatal attraction is the essence of a ghost…
Innocent to the paranormal world and innocent to the world of men, Keara McCabe finds herself caught in a century's old battle between renegade vampires and lycans after witnessing the murder of her friend at the fangs of an immortal bloodsucker. On the other hand, the vampire barely sips her blood and dies. From that moment forward, she becomes wanted dead or alive. The vampires want her destroyed for the danger she is, the lycans want her as a weapon against all vampires.
Lycan Gannon Langon vows to protect her from both her enemies. But its in her arms that he finds innocence and fire, tentativeness and passion. As their desire ignites, the enemy implements a deadly plan.
Will Keara and Gannon survive to explore their new love together or will that love be destroyed?

Bozeman, MT or Boise, ID. Somewhere where everyone’s not on top of their neighbor.
