Take it away, Elodie :-)

‘A Little
Mysterious’ my November 27 release with Evernight Publishing was inspired black
swans and a man I met in my work. I say met, but it was a fleeting meeting. I
don’t even know his name. The black swan idea has been with me since I went to
Australia on holiday and saw them, flocks of them swimming in the edge of the
ocean in a place near Melbourne. There was also a tame one that lived on the
pond where I was renting a holiday house in Perth.
The man who
inspired, Dhruv, my alpha male in ‘A Little Mysterious’ came into the antique
shop where I work. He was gorgeous, so polite, and cool, that I went to the
window so I could secretly watch him walk away down the street.
He’d been sent
off course…he thought he was lost…until he found Daisy.
His vampire
abilities were special. He belonged to an elite group. Moving home, they are
set off course by a storm that lands Dhruv alone, hungry, and desperate in a
strange town.
A story of lust,
love, and coincidence.

Today the main characters from ‘A Little
Mysterious’, Dhruv and Daisy are visiting the blog.
Daisy, would you like to tell the readers about
how you and Dhruv met?
Daisy
We met on the high street
in the café I worked in didn’t we Dhruv?
Dhruv: We did formally meet
then, although I took a while to say much to Daisy. I liked her as soon as I
saw her. That was before we actually met. I’d seen her around shall we say. I
don’t want to give spoilers.
Daisy: That’s true, but I
wanted you right away. I could hardly take my eyes off you. When I went up the
back of the café and cleared the tables, I used to stare at you.
Dhruv: You did more than
stare you sighed over me. I knew it. I could sense it. I could feel your need
and it fuelled mine.
He leans across and kisses Daisy, then keeps
hold of her hand.
Dhruv, Can you describe when you first knew you
were in love with Daisy?
Dhruv: You know, I’m sorry
but I can’t. It was weird for me. I couldn’t admit it to myself. I think Daisy
loved me right away. Did you Daisy?
Daisy: I knew I wanted to
make love with you, but I felt such a strong attraction to you I think I might
have loved you right away. Then I knew the first time we made love, it was sex
that turned into making love. For me anyway. Although I liked him the moment I
saw him, in the cafe doorway. I wanted those arms around me right away.
She leans across and kisses him this time .I
better ask another question since now they are starting to get a little heated.
What’s one thing you might have changed about
your story?
Daisy: Nothing, since it’s
the real story. Although I’ve never been happy with my name, and that I’m not
very tall, Dhruv can tuck me under his arm. Although things are a little
different now since we really got together, but I can’t tell you that. It would
be a spoiler.
Dhruv: That’s so sexy
Daisy, that I can pick you up and cuddle you into my body. You’re beautiful the
way you are.
As for me changing the
story, more sex, although there’s loads, I’m addicted to Daisy now and I find
it hard to keep my hands off her. I might have said a little more about our
lives after we got together, but that might be better in another book.
Dhruv, tell us something about Daisy, how would
you describe her in a few words?
Dhruv: She’s very pretty,
slender, intelligent. I think she’s kind and generous, and she treats people
really well. She’s brave too. She likes the countryside and water. Starts to laugh and hugs Daisy.
Daisy, describe Dhruv in a few words.
Very sexy, giving, clever,
thoughtful, a great lover, knows what he wants or needs to do and goes for it.
He’s very creative, and talented artistically.
So what’s hot about the story?
Dhruv:
The steam rises from the
love scenes.
I think the way Daisy
responds to me.
Daisy:
I think it’s the way you
talk dirty to me.
Dhruv: Do I?
Now Daisy is stroking his arm, okay time for an
excerpt.
How about you both choose
your favorite scene from the book.
Daisy: It has to be a love
scene for me, what about you Dhruv?
Dhruv: I think so, the hotter
the better. (Grins)
Well, I don't know about you, but I want to read an excerpt now.
“Let’s sit for a while. You
can tell me about yourself.”
He watched as she placed
her bag down on the pebble path, then sit down on the park bench. He sat close
and breathed her in. She turned to him. There was hunger in her eyes. He knew
that look. She desired him. It was strong and matched his hunger. He sighed.
She was so pretty and he wanted to fuck her right then. Take her on the pebble
path.
He let himself think about
stripping her naked and licking her all over. He imagined stroking her stomach
and then her clit. She would be wet for him, and his fingers would slide into
her creamy pussy. She would moan and writhe under him, coming over and over, as
he fucked her all night.
I need to feed, but not from her. I need her in a
different way. I need to fuck her so hard I can’t think any more.
“Daisy…”
His voice was low and deliberately soothing. He took her hand, watching
her face, waiting to see the look in her eyes that meant she was afraid of his
cold touch. It didn’t come. As he took her hand, and traced his fingertips
around the palm of her hand and over her fingers, she closed her eyes in
pleasure, leaning toward him. Dhruv bent his head and kissed her.
