New release! Demon Dawn

For those of you who like a little bite with their romance, check out the newest release of The Resurrection Chronicles. Demon Dawn is the seventh in this nail biting series that has zombies, fey, and romance.

Survival requires sacrifice. The world irrevocably changed after the hellhounds and fey appeared. Most people didn't survive that first night. Dad had said we were lucky we did. I'm not so sure about that anymore.

With her father murdered before her eyes and her faith in the remaining humans shaken, Brenna reluctantly accepts sanctuary in Tolerance, a safe zone managed by the fey. The wall keeps the infected out. But it also keeps the humans in…with the very creatures that caused the world to break. Big, grey, and ruthlessly deadly, the fey strike fear in the hearts of men and women alike. But Brenna finds one more intimidating than all the rest. Scarred and angry, Thallirin watches Brenna with an intensity that makes her relive the events that followed her father's murder. She knows what Thallirin wants, and she's never going to be used like that again. Tormented by her past, Brenna sees no possible future other than eventual infection or starvation. There is hope, though. Her community is abuzz with a newly discovered way to protect women against the disease that's turning people into zombies. However, it doesn't come from a needle. It comes from sleeping with the dark fey.

A beastly good read

It's getting closer to when goblins and ghosts make their appearance. So how about reading a classic tale with a twist?

Check out M.J. Haag's Beastly Tales.

Depravity

Beastly Tales, Part 1

**ADULT ROMANCE**
A classic fairy tale with a new twist, the Beauty and the Beast saga begins with Depravity…

Sixteen year old Benella is concerned with two things–avoiding the two village boys who torment her and scrounging for food to help feed her family. Unfortunately, the best wild fruit and vegetables are near the walls of the estate, a dark misty place inhabited by an unforgiving beast.

When her tormentors lock her behind the massive gates, Benella knows her fate is sealed. Yet, the fate isn’t one she expects. Her encounter with the beast starts a bizarre cycle of bargaining for her freedom, a freedom the beast seems determined to see her lose.

Intended for mature readers due to sexual situations, violence (attempted rape), and moderate language.

Guest Interview with Melissa Haag

Hi All,

I met Melissa Haag at a publishing workshop. I can honestly say she is fabulous, both in writing and just being an awesome person. I've already read one of her books in the short weeks following the workshop and I'm starting a second. So, naturally, I had to interview her for the blog. If you're a paranormal/fantasy romance fan, then she's the author for you. Of course, I've never read much paranormal before this point and I think she might have converted me. Very sneaky, Melissa.

When did you start writing?

I wrote my first book in high school for an English class. I never intended to become an author; my love of romance novels spurred my imagination and probably made my teacher regret the assignment. My “paper” was by far the longest in class coming in at 30(ish) typed pages.

You write paranormal romance (adult and YA). What fascinates you about this genre?

I’ve always taken the stance that life is real enough, so the books I read shouldn’t be. Plus, supernatural creatures. What’s cooler than that?

Who is your favorite character that you've written?

HAHAHA! This is like picking a favorite child. It shouldn’t be done.

However…I love the sass in my heroines this year. Eden, the main character in Demon Escape (written under my adult pen name M.J. Haag), gives her romantic interest a run for his money. There were many nights editing where my husband asked what I was laughing at. Likewise, Megan, the main character in Fury Frayed, had so many sassy comments, readers were begging for the second release immediately after finishing.

Does your husband read your books?

He’s read one, as a proofreader. He’s more of a newspaper reader than a book reader, so I appreciate that he made it through one. ;)

You have over 30 books. Where should a new reader begin?

Well, that depends on a reader’s taste.

The Judgement of the Six series is perfect for werewolf fans and starts with Hope(less).

The Beastly Tales is perfect for fans of adult Beauty and the Beast retellings. Start with Depravity.

The Resurrection Chronicles is spot on for fans of the Walking Dead and Romance Novels. Best of both worlds! Be sure to start with Demon Ember.

And if you like fast paced Urban Fantasy laced with sass, give Fury Frayed a try.

What are you working on now?

The final book in the Fury trilogy, Fury Freed. After that, I’ll hop over to my adult world in the Resurrection Chronicles.

Where can readers find you?

I’ve separated my work with two names. M.J. Haag is for my adult novels, and Melissa Haag is for my young adult novels.
