THE NEXT BIG THING HOP- Be Still My Lover's Heart by Lisa Hannah Wells

Thanks to fellow TWRP author Kathryn Knight for tagging me in The Next Big Thing Blog Hop!  I'm talking about my first novel this week, which released in September.

What is the title of your book? 

 BE STILL MY LOVER’S HEART  







 

Where did the idea come from for the book? 

I originally wrote it as a short story for a contest for another publisher. My husband liked it and I sent it to another and just lengthened it to a full novel.

What genre does your book fall under?  

It falls under the Paranormal Romance genre but has Science Fiction and Futuristic elements as well. There are two lines at The Wild Rose Press and mine fits under the Black Rose Line.

Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?

Ian Somerhalder as Tempest

Landon Liboiron as Aveal

Jackson Rathbone as Rivera

Erin Sanders for Shea

Gage Golightly as Cami

Where (or when) can we get your book? Be Still My Lover’s Heart also at Barnes and Noble online.

                                         

 How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?        4 Months

What is a one sentence synopsis of the book? 

 One woman with nothing to lose joins a Universal Military to fight whether or not it causes her death until she meets the one man, an alien, who claims she is his bondmate and have been meant to be together from time preordained even though they have to fight a madman in order to keep all they hold dear, including their future.

What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?  

I don’t really know others it would compare to, but do know that it appeals to men as well as women due to the Science Fiction and Paranormal elements.

Who or what inspired you to write this book?  

The Alien race themselves haunted my dreams about their uniqueness and how they love one another, their noble character and their slight resemblance that caused them to be the rumored originators of the vampire race.

What else about your book might pique the reader's interest?

 It is the first book in a five book series. Also, the term “Vatamp” means “Memory Makers.” This allows each member the unique ability to draw on the memories of his or her relatives who have passed on before them to solve unusual problems.
