What inspired you to write
your first book?
I’ve always been a pretty imaginative kid and had this
story (more of a daydream) circling in my head for several years that kept
growing and developing into something bigger and more complex. But this was
pre-Twilight. People weren’t devouring paranormal romance then as they are now.
So, after the craze hit, I thought, hey, maybe I’m not so weird after all, and
started putting those words on paper…well onscreen!
What are your expectations
for the book?
I want people to walk away from this series feeling as if
the characters are real to them and really caring about what happens next in
their story.
While you were writing, did
you ever feel as if you were one of the characters?
Actually, yes. But oddly enough, it’s one of the male
characters. York is the outlet for every sarcastic, wildly inappropriate, and
snarky comment I’ve ever wanted to make. I put a lot of my own twisted sense of
humor into writing his parts.
Do you have a specific
writing style?
From what I’ve been told, my style tends to be very simple
but very descriptive at the same time. Readers have said reading my work is
like watching a movie.
Do you have any advice for
other writers?
Plan your first book as a potential stand alone novel.
Write every day. And don’t give up!

Synopsis:
Sometimes great evil is necessary to
keep what you love most.
After centuries on the run, Rhane
can avoid justice no longer. Primes have called him home and now he must
finally answer for the sins of his past. But the situation in Rhane’s homeland
is far worse than anyone could have imagined, and the judgment Rhane faces is a
brutal one. Even relying on the strength of the immortal Banewolf, the man he
has become may not survive.
Kali and the other kin work
tirelessly to secure Rhane’s freedom, but many obstacles stand in their way.
Wesley offers a solution that hinges upon resuming a dangerous search for the
Siren’s Heart. Trusting him, she and the kin set out once again to find the
elusive artifact, believing Rhane and Warren’s freedom can be bartered in
exchange for the statue. But other creatures are searching for the Heart. And
with greater resources and a head start, their enemies may reach it first.

AUTHOR
BIO:
I'm Eden Ashley and I was born and raised in a small,
sunny town in South Carolina. However, it's the thunderstorms that inspire
my best ideas. There are few things I love more than curling up with a
good book and a cup of coffee on a rainy day, (except maybe chocolate
cake. I love cake.) often reading into the wee hours of morning when
something really grabs me. I pretty much love anything with supernatural
elements, so writing paranormal romance and fantasy romance seems to
be a natural fit.
My first novel, Dark Siren, is best described as paranormal romance artfully wrapped within a plot chock-full of action, adventure, and edge-of-your-seat suspense, while the series has evolved to become a journey of redemption and second chances as two characters understand that sometimes committing evil is necessary to protect what is loved most. I took the siren from Greek mythology (and borrowed a little from mermaid lore), creating an entirely different creature, with its own mythology, and one that Publisher's Weekly praised for its passion and complexity. This is not just another werewolf/shapeshifter romance or vampire romance. I think this is a story that both adults and teens can enjoy, full of characters to fall in love with!
