Interview & Giveaway with Sara Humphreys
Please give a very BIG Welcome to, Sara Humphreys today. We chose her as our Author Spotlight and Series Spotlight this month. We are very ecstatic to have her here to talk about her latest release and her Amoveo Legend Series.
1. Tell us 5 things about yourself that readers may not be able to find on the web.
-I need at least an hour alone every day.
-I talk to myself in the car when I'm plotting out a book.
-My toes are so long they resemble fingers and my husband calls them "alien toes".
-I'm not a natural blonde.
-I always wanted the nerve to cut my hair super short but I'm too chicken.
2. What does a typical writing day look for you?
Get the boys to school and then hit the gym. After my much needed coffee, I go into my writing cave and usually hit the "business of writing" first before getting invested in a manuscript. I write until around 3pm when the boys get home but if I'm on deadline, I'll dive back in after dinner.
3. How did you come up with the Amoveo Legend Series?
It wasn't one ah-ha moment but more a result of asking myself what I'd want to see in the ultimate supernatural race and the Amoveo are the result.
4. Tell us a little bit about your newest release "Untamed"?
Untamed is about two characters that readers met in Untouched. Actually, William Fleury was in both Unleashed and Untouched and I'm hoping that readers are eager to read his story. He's known for his cold, calculating demeanor and doesn't believe in love. He knows he's got a pre-destined mate and accepts it for what it is but he has zero intention of falling in love. His mate, Layla Nickelsen, is a human/Amoveo hybrid and unlike the heroines in the previous books, she is aware of her Amoveo heritage. She's a member of the Cheetah Clan but wants nothing to do with the Amoveo and has feared being discovered by them all of her life. She's a photographer and gets psychic images from the pictures she takes and when William shows up in his three piece suit, she makes it clear that she wants nothing to do with him. They are vastly different individuals but one thing is certain--they can't fight their attraction for each other. Watching them try and figure each other out is a lot of fun, especially when Layla gets William to loosen up.
5. What was the hardest scene to write in "Untamed"?
The very last scene, when Layla finally gives all of herself to William. I can't say too much because I don't want to post any spoilers.
6. If you could be one of your characters who would it be and why?
I'd love to be Kerry for a day. She can see inside people's minds with one touch and shapeshift into a panther. Having Dante as a lover wouldn't be half bad either.
7. How do you handle writer's block?
I walk away for a little while and listen to music. I find that music can be very helpful when I have a lazy muse but not when I'm actually writing.
8. If you could have one super power what would it be and why?
Telepathy. I think it would be wickedly erotic to be able to speak to your lover in the middle of a crowded room without anyone hearing a word.
9. When you are not writing, what are your hobbies and interests?
I am a movie junkie. I love sci-fi and romantic comedies. If I could sit on the couch and watch the entire Aliens or Terminator franchise in one day that would be awesome.
10. What is up next for Sara Humphreys?
I am writing the fifth Amoveo Legend novel, Unclaimed and the second Dead in the City book which is part of my upcoming vampire series. I will also have a contemporary romance series coming out with Sourcebooks called Holding Out for a Hero which features various men in uniform.

Sara has been a lover of both the paranormal and romance novels for years. Her sci-fi/fantasy/romance obsession began years ago with the TV Series STAR TREK and an enormous crush on Captain Kirk. That sci-fi obsession soon evolved into the love of all types of fantasy/paranormal; vampires, ghosts, werewolves, and of course shape shifters.
Sara is married to her college sweetheart, Will. They live in Bronxville, New York with their 4 boys and 2 insanely loud dogs. Life is busy but never dull.
Now here's your chance to win a paperback copy of "Untamed" by Sara Humphreys with some bookmarks & nail files from the Author. =)
