READER OF THE MONTH
March 2014 – Cilicia White
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
I have a lot of favorite authors but the first three to come to mind are you, because you write varies genres within the erotica genre and I love your story telling. Lynsay Sands because I love her take on Vampires(Immortals) and I love her historical ones also. The other is Brenda Jackson, because she writes from the heart and I love her Madaris and Westmoreland series’.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
All of your books are my favorite, but if I have to choose one it is Ask For It.
Favorite paranormal creature?
My favorite paranormal creature is the werewolf with vampires a close second.
February 2014 – Shirley Long
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
I have so, so many. Of course Selena Blake is right up there with the best of them. Then there’s Lissa Matthews, Sable Hunter, Mari Carr, Desiree Holt, Cerise DeLand, Cherise Sinclair, Sandy Sullivan, Nicole Edwards, Lexxie Couper, Rhiann Cahill, Jayne Rylon, Sami Lee, Sierra Cartwright. I could go on and on and on. And I like them for different reasons and the same reasons. They all write great loves stories with hot sex scenes. But, and I can’t explain it, they each write differently. I LOVE cowboy stories so that’s one reason I like some of these ladies. Then again, I love contemporary love stories with workaholic heroes. Then again I also love paranormal, like vampires, shifters, that kind of stuff. So, they all bring the same thing to the table, only in very different ways. And keep in mind this is just a partial list. I probably have 25 to 30 different authors in my kindle at any given time. As my husband says, I am an addict!!
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
I really don’t have a favorite Selena book. I’ve never read anything from you that I don’t like or haven’t enjoyed immensely. Do have have to admit that I haven’t read ALL of your books and I do still have the Stormy Weather Collector’s Edition waiting on my kindle. So I’m not able to pick just one. Hope that’s ok. Your contemporary stories, life Ask for It, are pretty dam good. 🙂
Favorite paranormal creature?
As for shifters — I’m very partial to wolves. I love how they shift and turn into these beautiful, sleek animals. And then, BAM, they’re back to these beautiful, sleek men animals. And women too. I’ve read several books with both sexes shifting and that makes for some good reading too. Also like some vampire stories, but they have to be done just right.
January 2014 – Shannon Riley
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Of course I love your books as well as Marie Force, Barbara Freethy, M Malone, Charlaine Harris, and countless others.
Favorite paranormal creature?
My favorite Paranormal has to be shifters. I won’t specify with a specific one because they all capture my attention.
December 2013 – Christine LaCombe
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
You of course- I love shifters and vampires. Sable Hunter’s Hell Yeah series-I love the erotic romances and the cowboys, JS Cooper- she writes adult contemporary romances that I just love, Nicole Edwards- she got me started reading ménages.
Kallypso Masters- I love her Rescue Me series, I love the bdsm and romances of her books.
My all time favorite author is VC Andrews. The Flowers in the Attic series is one of my favorites but I have most of her books in paperback form.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
It is not just one book, it is the Stormy Weather Series. When I first bought the bundle, it was on sale. But what drew me in was that it was here in Louisiana, where I live. I loved the paranormal aspect, I have a thing for shifters. And those Deveraux men are just so darn hot!!!
Favorite paranormal creature?
My favorite paranormal creature, I will say again, Shifters of all types. But I also love vampires and since reading The Mystic Isle series, I can add Demons to that too but probably just yours right now. I don’t usually buy books that center around them.
November 2013 – Samantha Jensen
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Some of my favorite authors are, Selena Blake of course. I absolutely love her werewolf books. I also like Nicky Charles and Sherrilyn Kenyon. Paranormal books are my favorite reads and Selena, Nicky and Sherrilyn are the top of the line in my opinion.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
My favorite books by Selena…ummm that’s a hard one since I haven’t read a bad one. I would guess my favorite would be, Stranded With A Cajun Werewolf. I loved the whole book, the description were so spot on you felt you were there. Then there’s Burke, so glad he finally got his story. He was just one hunky hero and I don’t think I read one bad personality trait. He was your all around dream guy…uh wolf.
Favorite paranormal creature?
My favorite paranormal creature would be Shifters. I love any type but my favorite is werewolf. Selena’s wolves are always, Alphas with big hearts. You can’t beat that.
October 2013 – Debi Hursh
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
As for my favorite author, that’s a tuff one. I really don’t know what to say to that. There are so many and I don’t want to exclude anyone.
Well for the BritBabes my favorite would be Kay Jaybee with KD Grace in a close second. These women are just so creative in what ever genre they write.
As for the US well of course you due to your hot Cajun men. Eden Bradley, R.G. Alexander and Cherise Sinclair have all opened my eyes to a whole new world and I LOVE IT!
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
First of all I think I like Bitten in the Bayou the best out of the Cajun stories. Who wouldn’t? You have two hot Deveraux men after you!
Angelica is one lucky lady!
Favorite paranormal creature?
Well on the paranormal creature I am really thinking Werewolf. They seem to be all gorgeous in every book I read and they aren’t skinny
like I picture a Vampire to be. I mean really how can you get any meat on your bones by just drinking blood?
September 2013 – Cheryl Bussell

Some of my favorite authors are,why you of course, instantly comes to mind! Love Tina Folsom, H.P.Mallory, H.T.Night, J.R.Rain, Quinn Loftis, Christin Lovell, just to name a few.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
My favorite Selena book,how does one decide? well I can’t- I love them all, but must admit my favorite is the Mystic Isle Series. I love where you went with the entire story line, it made me want to keep reading just to find out what all went on at that special resort.
Favorite paranormal creature?
I must admit I am partial to Vampires and extremely close second would be the wolves.
July 2013 – Angie Bailes
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Selena Blake(LOL), Christine Feehan, Lynsay Sands, Lori Foster, Moira Rogers, Eve Langlais, Sherri L. King, J. S. Scott are some of my favorite Paranormal authors. Their books are the best I have read and I have read them over and over again.
Selena’s Cajun werewolves keep me coming back for more and then you add in Mystic Isle and nothing is better. Christine Feehan’s Dark Series(Carpathians/vampires), Leopard Series(Shapeshifters), Ghostwalker Series(action/adventure with Paranormal thrown in), and Sea Haven Series(Witches) are great books and I am always ready for the next one to come out. I love her writing style and can really get into the stories and the characters. Lynsay Sands Immortal Series of books are great with a terrific sense of humor that comes through every book.For other reading I love Diana Palmer, Nora Roberts, and JD Robb(I love the In Death Series with Eve and Roarke).
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Favorite paranormal creature?
I would have to say Werewolf but I do also like a good Immortal/Carpathian/Vampire.
June 2013 – Carol Pearson
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Selena Blake: You had me at Cajun!
Laura DeLuca: Believe it or not, she is a local author (next town over) who writes mostly Young Adult. I first “discovered” her books at a nearby restaurant. I friended her on FB and now belong on her street team. My favorite book of hers is Morrigan. I was finally able to meet her last month!
T.A. Grey: I love reading about shifters. Add hot sex to it and I’m hooked! Her Kategans series was so scrumptious I searched for more books by her and that genre.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Favorite paranormal creature?
Favorite paranormal creature? You ask the difficult question. Shifters. I prefer werewolves (the sexier, the better), but I also like cat shifters. To me paranormal is exciting because it is outside of my reality (as I know it)!
May 2013 – Cindy Allers
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
I actually follow a number of authors, Evangeline Anderson & the Kindred series, Judy Angelo & Anne Melody and their respective Billionaire series, Vivian Arend & her Granite Lake Wolves series, Jennifer Ashley, Bianca D’Arc, Jennifer Blake, Selena Blake, R.E. Butler, Angela Castle, Nicky Charles, Marisa Chenery, Helen Cooper, Bianca D’Arc, Laurann Dohner – I’m hooked on her Species, Zorn & Cyborg series, Eve Langlais, Tina Folsom, Michelle M. Pillow, S.E. Smith & Coreene Callahan. These writers have humor, suspense and hot romance all rolled into an evening (or weekend) escape. I want to be able to read a story and forget that I still need to clean out the litter box and do the dishes, and these people know how to make that happen. They also work the story line, there is a good story line construction up and as I prefer series, they build from each other.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Favorite paranormal creature?
I am still a huge fan of werewolf heros. Not the crazy, mindless ones, but the hot, hunky alpha ones, you know what I’m talking about. I also discovered in the past year or so, that I enjoy futuristic paranorms – especially the Species series from Laurann Dohner. As far as non-wolf shapeshifters, a good Dragon shifter can usually grab my attention.
April 2013 – Ruth Gutscher
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
I am an avid reader & love genres from paranormal to romantic suspense mainly because I love the diversity in characters & storylines; so I have a lot of favorites & to many to list!
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Favorite paranormal creature?
My favorite paranormal creature would be a Werewolf because to me they are more believable because they are closer to humans and can pass for one easier than say a Vampire.
March 2013 – Danielle Dalton
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Jayne Krentz (also writings Amanda Quick) I actually only read Mrs. Krentz’s Harmony and Arcane Society novels, which I only discovered a few months ago and thanks to my ereader have ABSORBED all of them.Amanda Quick novels I have been reading since high school, love the historical backround that stories are woven into.
J.D. Robb books are just awesome, when reading one can almost see what our future society is leaning towards, with urban warfare and all. The cases Eve investigates can make the reader become emotional and that is a good thing in my opinion.
Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Dark Hunter series and J.R. Ward’s Brotherhood series, the men in those two series are sooo HOT and damaged yet are redeemable.
Christine Feehan’s Ghostwalker series, hot military men with paranormal abilities, and I can actually imagine a government agency conducting such experiments.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Favorite paranormal creature?
I prefer werewolves over vampires. I like the idea of a “man” who has a heartbeat and does not rely on blood for substance, blood really grosses me out (thus med school was not on the table for a career). I like a “man” with a built in instinct to protect.
So that is my taste in romance novels in a nutshell.
February 2013 – Lucy Nina
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Some of my favorite authors include Cynthia Eden, Rebecca Zanetti, Alexandra Ivy, Lara Adrian, JR Ward, and Gena Showalter.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Your latest, Fangs, Fur, and Mistletoe. It is unique: I think that this story is set in a world that I have not read from any author. In addition, I love the characters and well thought out story line.
Favorite paranormal creature?
I love all but zombies but I can’t help being drawn to vampires.
January 2013 – Zita Rivera
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
I got my first e-reader last April. Prior to having a Kindle my favorite authors were Catherine Coulter (FBI Series), David Baldacci, Iris Johansen, Suzanne Brockmann (Navy Seals), Terry Goodkind (Wizards) and Catherine Anderson.
I like intrigue, suspense, and mystery all blended together, also like Sci-Fi/Fantasy, and can’t forget romance. I can always count on these authors attention to detail and an involved storyline. These authors make you wait for their books and it shows. The stories are fresh and not reminiscent of prior works. Editing problems are never an issue (was an A student in English, I find all the errors in a book).
The kindle has opened accessibility to a world of authors I had not known before. Now my favorite authors besides you are (in no particular order): Shayla Black, Shiloh Walker, J.T. Geissinger, Donna Grant, Kristen Ashley, Lisa Renee Jones, Sylvia Day, Cynthia Eden, Tina Reber, Samantha Towle, Samantha Young, Cherrie Lynn, Belinda Boring, Jill Shalvis, and Elle Aycart. There are just so many authors I like now. It’s driving me crazy! Between the Goodreads and Amazon reviews I seem to find the best writers.
Now what I like also like about these authors is that their imaginations are AWESOME. They push the bounds of possibility in their stories. They make you believe that this could actually be truth of the world, that there are such creatures, that alphas described really do exist. To me a book is an escape. If the author can make me feel that I’ve stepped into the world they wrote then they have done a fantastic job.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
While I thoroughly enjoyed Instructing Adam and Friday Night Delights (funny and steamy) I loved the Cajun Werewolves more but Ready & Willing was AWESOME. The chemistry between Kaden and Ava was electric, literally jumped off the page at you. An alpha male and an alpha female going at it! The storyline flowed like liquid with no pauses so you just kept going. The suspense killed me and I loved it. All the characters were well developed. I like this pack and hope there will be more stories for them.
Favorite paranormal creature?
There is something about shape shifters that just calls to my spirit (wolves, panthers, cougars, dragons). You can’t discount vampires though. They have evolved so much from Anne Rice’s stories which I read long ago. Love it when they are both in a book.
December 2012 – Kandie Saldierna
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
It’s hard to narrow down a couple of my favorite authors, I have so many. Nora Roberts writing as JD Robb is one of the first ones that comes to mind. I love her ” In Death” series. It has a little of everything. Mystery, suspense, it’s futuristic and of course of few steamy scenes. Charlain Harris is another. Her Sookie Stackhouse series is unbelievable. The imagination that woman has to bring so many paranormal characters together is just awesome. Laura Adrian is another, anyone who hasn’t read her Midnight Breed should check it out!
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
I have read all your Cajun Werewolves series, they are by far my favorite of yours. I mean what’s not to love, it has hot, sexy, cajun men that turn into werewolves and who know how to take care if there women. Doesn’t that pretty much sum up all women’s fantasies 😉
Favorite paranormal creature?
Hmmm. It is hard toss up between vampires and werewolves. I mean they are both so strong and sexy. The thought of a vampire sinking his fangs into you is just, well so erotic. But, the werewolves are so HOT and sensual.
November 2012 – Trish Riol
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Authors- of course Selena Blake is at the top of my favorites!!!!

It’s gotta be The Cajun’s Captive!!!! Sebastian Deveraux is just yummy!!!! He’s protective of his family and Amanda. This was the first book I read by you. I remember after I finished I just had to let you know how much I enjoyed the book. Thank you for responding it meant a lot to me.
Favorite paranormal creature?
hmmm I gotta go with Werewolves! There’s something sexy about a sexy alpha wolf.

Selena Blake, Bella Andre, Cherise Sinclair, kallyso masters, Lora Leigh, Lauren Dane, Nora Roberts, and Lori foster. Just to name a few. I love a good romance and these authors are the best at writing a great love story with a happy ending.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
I love them all especially the Stormy weather series because I am a Louisiana girl and they were all very sexy werewolves. But my favorite right now is Ready and Willing because it just goes to show what you will do for love. And I got to help beta read it which makes me feel like I got to be a part of helping it become a book. Which is just awesome!!
Favorite paranormal creature?
Favorite paranormal creature is a werewolf. What’s not to love about a handsome sexy werewolf.

I could go on and on, so I’ll stop here.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
My favourite Selena book?: I love all the Stormy Weather books, but I do have a soft spot for an Alpha!, so I suppose if I had to single one out it would be The Cajun’s Captive, Sebastian, even his name sounds sensual and strong. However, even though it isn’t finished, my absolute favourite is Ready & Willing!
Favorite paranormal creature?
Favourite Paranormal creature?: Vampire. Sexy, sensual, intense, dangerous.

Laurann Dohner she shows that you may be different but love will always win.In her New Spicies series.
Jennifer Ashley’s shifters unbound is a great series. I like the idea to be able to change from human to animal form.

Lora Leigh because she writes plot twisters with HOTNESS!
Shelly Laurenston because she can write characters that make me laugh out loud and embarrass myself in public, and write a hot book full of sexy characters.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
The Cajun’s Captive because Sebastian is the Alpha and I loved how he was with Amanda, patient with her. But I would have liked for him to have gone after her when she left.
Favorite paranormal creature?
Werewolves. I am a little partial to vampires too, but I love big animals, including men!
May 2012 – Erin Walters Koiso
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
some of my favorite authors J.R. Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Larrissa Ione, Poppet, Laura Kaye and of course… You – Selena Blake! I found that each of these authors have an amazing ability to weave not only amazing stories but can create an entire world with words. Which I absolutely love..
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Bitten In The Bayou. Who could possibly resist two Deveraux men at once? I have never wanted to be a character more than I did Angelica!
Favorite paranormal creature?
vampires and werewolves
April – 2012 Sheryl Dumancas
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Obviously you are one of my favorites. I absolutely love love love the “Stormy Weather” series as well as your free reads. I also enjoy reading books by Nicky Charles; “Law of the Lycan” series is awesome. Nicky creates characters that you can connect with while the story is being told. Cherise Sinclair’s “ Master of the Shadowlands” series is erotic but also has a good story line and keeps you wanting more with each book. Last but not least is Lauren Dane; ” Witches Knot” series. I love the combination of witches, warlocks, vampires, demons and fairies in her stories and that the heroines are all very powerful witches and it’s not the men who saves day.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
I love everything about André so my favorite book is “Mated to a Cajun Werewolf”. He has all of the traits of a sexy alpha male and has an enormous love for his family. Andre’s book had my emotions going all over the place and I felt like I was in the story with him and I absolutely loved it.
Favorite paranormal creature?
Absolutely hands down the Werewolf!

January 2012 – Reagan Whitten
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Some of my favorite authors are you of course!
A few other favorite authors (and this is really hard because I have so many) are Rhyannon Byrd; her Primal Instinct series is awesome! I loved that there were more creatures than the typical werewolves & vampires. I really enjoy Jennifer Estep. Her elemental assassins series is the perfect combo of edge, sex, and murder; with people who can control the elements thrown in.
One other author I’d like to mention is HP Mallory. She isn’t as erotic and you or Rhyannon and isn’t as hard as Ms. Estep but her Jolie Wilkins series caught me from the beginning and I cannot wait for the last 2 books to come out. Other awesome authors I like are Kim Harrison, Kresley Cole, Sydney Croft, Lorissa Ione, Lorelie James, Jodi Redford, Lauren Dane, and Evangeline Anderson.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
french/cajun aspect that you added to your Stormy weather series, I love that you tease us with Kaden and Ava and keeps us constantly wondering if they are ever going to hit the sheets, but I have to say my absolute favorite read by you was Instructing Adam!! Man oh man I wish I had the balls to do something as crazy sexy as Cindy does. I have never thought of customer service reps the same way again!!
Favorite paranormal creature?
I have to say that I don’t really have a favorite paranormal creature. I love all of them.
December 2011 – Danielle Dani Keith
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
My favorite authors are Patricia Briggs, Keri Arthur, Deborah Cooke, Yasmine Galenorn and Selena Blake (of course). All the authors mentioned have really engaging stories. They suck you in from the word go and they write the types of books that you just hate to put down.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
My favorite book of Selena’s is Mated to a Cajun Werewolf. I just love André. He’s a lover with a big heart, but will fight for what he believes in no matter what it costs him. I loved reading about him in the other books, but his book was the icing on the cake for me. The way he treated Juliette through out the whole story was perfect. You couldn’t ask for a better man. I also like her free read Ready & Willing. I can’t wait to get the email that says that she’s put the next chapter up.
Favorite paranormal creature?
Werewolves, though I like shifters of all kinds (dragons, felines, merfolk, etc.), but I always go back to wolves. There’s just something majestic about them.
November 2011 – Gingy Hunter
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
The list is long for favorite authors, but some are: YOU, JR Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Larissa Ione, Kerrelyn Sparks, Shayla Black, Lorelei James, Eliza Gayle – I’ll stop now;) What I love about them? Their ability to throw all my favorite things into the mix. Erotica, romance, danger, kink, humor. Men that are passionate, self-assured, demanding, commanding, compassionate and bad-ass!
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
My favorite book of yours is ‘Bitten In The Bayou”. The whole story just curled my toes. M/F/M is a passion. I have to tell you that I got to go away for the weekend about nine months ago. It was shortly after reading your first books. I was definitely full of myself and in a ‘life is short’ frame of mind. So I decided to seduce one of the cowboys that was training a horse. Whoa!!! Fell into the best thing in my life and occasionally his equally hunky brother falls in with us. Since I don’t have a very efficient filter on my mouth you may have heard the ground shaking! SO I OWE YOU:)) and many, many thanks…
Favorite paranormal creature?
My favorite character is Vishous from BDB. That man (vampire) is smokin’…and the BDSM doesn’t hurt;-), well maybe a little!!!
October 2011 – Nia Shay
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
MaryJanice Davidson, Michele Bardsley, and Dakota Cassidy, because their heroines are awesome, kick-ass ladies with amazing senses of humor. Marjorie Liu and Robin D. Owens, because their characters are so deep and realistic, you feel like you’ve known them your enitre life. Plenty of others, too, but those are the major ones on my can’t-wait-for-the-next-installment list.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
The Cajun’s Captive is my fave, because let’s face it ladies — who among us hasn’t daydreamed about our “crush” guys sweeping us off our feet, however literally? LOL!
Favorite paranormal creature?
I started out loving vampires from the time I was a kid, though honestly they’re getting a little played out even for my tastes. But really, I don’t think there’s a paranormal creature I *don’t* like.
September 2011 – Dawn Pressel
Who are some of your favorite authors and what do you love about them?
Wow, I have several I like James Patterson, Heather Graham, Nicky Charles, Harlan Coben, Lauren Dane, Stephanie Meyer, JK Rowling, Cora Zane, Everly Drummond, just about any Harlequin Blaze author (although some rush the ending like they just need to hurry and tie it all up), Nickolas Sparks, YOU and me (although I am not nearly good enough, I still like to dabble and my friends seem to like them). These are just a few. Why I like them is because of the characters they bring to life and how they bring them to life. Heaven knows I am a sucker for a happy ending ~ which is strange since I like Nicholas Sparks and most of his books end in some sort of tragedy but sometimes tragedy is unavoidable. I always tell people I will read anything but romance, but I find I am moving toward romance/eriotica more and more ~ hope the erotica will keep me a no romance reader.
Do you have a favorite Selena book and if so, which one and why?
Do you have a favorite book of yours? Why? And I like all of your books but if I had to pick just one…I have to pick Stranded with a Cajun Werewolf…Burke passes himself off as a man that could care less about much of anything because of his past (hell we have all been hurt a time or 4 in our lives) but he craves love and companionship beyond a causal romp he just doesn’t know it. As it states in the book he needed to get away from his family that is why he went to the mountain ~ to be alone. They all had someone, he didn’t…he was alone and lonely. Treating Kendall with such casual indifference was a way of pulling back because she was human (or so he thought), in the end he knew it didn’t matter if she was human or not, he loved her and sometimes love is enough to look beyond the differences between 2 people.
I do hope you come out with one more to answer some questions something like an epilogue 5 years later… where are these people 5 years after Marie showed up? what sex is Amanda’s baby? Is that the only baby any of them have? Is Violet still a vampire? Did Kendall move to the bayou? Are Violet, Kendall, Violet and Juliette all married to their men? What exactly did it mean when Marie gave them her immortality? What kind of child hood was it for the boys? You touch on how loveless it was but something had to have happened that drove them from their home, was there just one major event that forced them to leave? And why did the cousins go with them? Did the cousins have the same childhood?
Favorite paranormal creature?
Lord knows I love my Edward (Twilight books) but my favorite paranormal is a werewolf. They are strong, unafraid to love, not unwilling to be hurt…they protect, admire, honor and love their mates with every fiber of their being (and that isn’t just your books, so far it seems to be the pattern for any werewolf book I have read). And they are passionate, sex is uninhibited without restraint and without judgment…they work their ass off to satisfy their partner. What woman wouldn’t want that?

Selena says: What to say about Jackie? She’s a force of nature. She’s in love with Kaden. She can always be counted on to join the party, cheer me on, and lift my spirits. It doesn’t hurt that she pushes and prods me to get my next book out, either.
July 2011 – Barbara Jones
Selena says: Twitter can be an intimidating place, especially for an author. It’s hard to squeeze in a thoughtful comment in 140 short characters but despite that, Barbara has become a great twitter friend.I always appreciate her enthusiasm and look forward to her comments and recommendations.
June 2011 – Jessica Garcia
Selena says: Jessica was one of my very first fans. In fact, she’s the first person to go absolutely nuts (in the best possible way, of course) over my book Bitten in the Bayou. I look forward to seeing what she has to say about each and every book and am blessed that she keeps coming back for more.
May 2011 – Jacque Moore Davis
Selena says: Jacque is one of my die-hard cheerleaders. She’s said so. Always enthusiastic and present on my Facebook page, she makes me smile frequently and I’m so thankful to count her as a friend and fan.
