Today we are featuring Andrea’s CLAIMED series.

Andrea R. Cooper has taken the time to answer some ‘normal’ and ‘not so normal’ questions for us.
 

‘Normal’ Questions

1. What genre do you write in?  

I write primarily in paranormal romance but also have a historical romance and a fantasy romance series.

2. What do you love about it?  

With paranormal romance, there are so many possibilities of characters, worlds, and romance. I love reading the genre because writing in the paranormal world is never enough.

3. What are your series titles? Can you tell us a little about them?  

Claimed – is my new series and are paranormal romance stories based on either an Incubus or a Succubus and their love interest. There is plenty of action and adventure in all my stories and passion.
 
Viking Fire – is my historical romance series. The prequel is all from Bram’s POV and how he falls in love with Karieen, the feisty Irish Laird’s daughter. Viking Fire is primarily from Karieen’s POV and her struggle to overcome her prejudice and fall for Bram.
 
Legends of Oblivion – Fantasy romance series and is based on what happens if a vampire were to bite an Elf (Lord of the Rings Elvin, not the shoemaker kind).
 
 
‘Not So Normal’ Questions

1. If you could invite any 5 people (i.e. cartoon character; famous person; rock band; poet; artist; living or dead) for a meal together, who would they be?   

J.K. Rowling, Terry Goodkind, George R.R. Martin, Anne Bishop, and Yasmine Gaelnorn. And I’d talk story and writing with them for as long as I could.

2. You’re dressed to attend a Medieval Fair.  What are you wearing? 
 
A medieval warrior costume similar to the picture here:

But with a sword and bow.

3. You’re on a quest to find a magical gem. What magical creatures or persons are on your team?  

A dwarf, because they can sense gems if close enough. A witch because with the gem being magical, there will be spells and enchanted traps to avoid. A paladin and a ranger– for the heavy fighting.

4. What magical place and time period would you like to visit?   

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A close runner up would be the Silvan Elves in Lord of the Rings series.
 


Awesome answers! Love your medieval costume choice.

Here we are at the ‘Normal’ and ‘Not so Normal’ question spot. 😊
 
‘Normal’ Question Spot

1. What genre do you write in?   

I write mostly Paranormal romance, but I've also written suspense and ghost stories as well.

2. What do you love about your genre?  

Everything. LOL. I have always been fascinated with spooky stories, movies and tales. I grew up in a haunted house so that should tell you something about me. But its not just the scare, its the chance to create my own worlds, creatures and scenarios. Vampires, who doesn't love a vampire, are so much fun to write because you can make them into anything you want.

3. Do you have a new release coming soon?  

I have two, actually. The seventh book in my Darkness series, Consuming the Darkness and the third book in my Demon series, Conquer the Demon will both be out later this month and next month. You can go to my website to catch a glimpse of them both.

4. What are you currently working on?   

Right now, I am rewriting the last book in my Darkness series, Surviving the Darkness. All of the Darkness books have been previously published. When my latest publisher, Champagne Books took them under their wing, I got to do some rewrites. Penetrating the Darkness is a whole new book so if you've read the original you might want to get the new one. Surviving needed some major repairs so instead of hacking it to bits, I decided just to rewrite it.
 

‘Not so Normal’ Question Spot

1. You’re dressed to attend a Cosplay event. What are you wearing?  

Wow, that's a tough one. There are so many. Gamora from Guardians of the Galaxy would be one. Harley Quinn because she is just Bat shit crazy. LOL. And Deadpool.

2. If you had wings what would they look like? Fairy or Angel? What color and size?  

If I'm going to have wings they are going to be huge. What is the point to small wings. I'm thinking dragon wings.

3. You have a magical pet. What is it? What does it look like?  

Its a toss between a dragon and a Pegasus.The dragon would be gold, red and black, not as large as the ones you see in movies but large enough to scare predators. The Pegasus would be white with a silver mane and tail.

4. If you could invite any 5 people (i.e. cartoon character; famous person; rock band; poet; artist; living or dead) for a meal together, who would they be?    

Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool. Marylin Monroe. Michael Jackson. Prince.
 
 

Wow! You grew up in a haunted house! Maybe someday we’ll get to hear about some of your ghostly encounters. Fingers crossed. 😊

The third book in this series is in the works with a tentative title of ORIGINS.
 
 
Here we are at the ‘normal’ and ‘not so normal’ question spot.

 ‘Normal’ Question Spot

1. What genre do you write in?  

I write fiction; primarily urban fantasy and paranormal romance.

2. What do you love about it?  

I love bringing my stories into the world. There are a lot of characters and ideas running amok in my head.

3. Who, or what, inspired you to write?  

I’ve been writing stories since I was a kid. My Irish grandmother inspired me with her stories of the Fae, including one tale of her personal encounter with a Banshee in her root cellar. Imagination fueled, I wrote a lot of tales as a kid. And I haven’t stopped yet.

4. You have two book series, THE BLACK HILL WOLVES, and THE TRANQUILLI BLOODLINE. What are they about?  

Decadent Publishing’s Black Hills Wolves line is a paranormal romance, multi-author, shared world centering around the Tao wolf pack of Los Lobos, in the Black Hills of South Dakota. All books are standalone and can be read in any order.  I wrote a “Moon” trilogy about my Luparell siblings for the series: Diamond Moon (Ross and Darci), Under A Mating Moon (Lexi and Jake), and Jasmine Moon (Evan and Jasmine). In my three stories, I introduce my new characters and locations to the world, use some preexisting town locales for a few activities (such as Gee’s Bar), and have other author’s characters make cameos. And, of course, romance is front and center in all my stories, as my heroes and heroines work for their Happily Ever Afters.
 
The Tranquilli Bloodline is my urban fantasy, vampire series, published by Champagne Books. The series stars Carina Tranquilli, a San Francisco dance club owner whose world is turned upside down when she discovers she has a vampire family. Dysfunctional family drama ensues, complicated by her family’s numerous enemies who’d love to use Carina as a pawn. Or, kill her. They’re not too picky.  In between much vampire mayhem, Carina meets her soul mate Alexander, a sexy, undead musician… Two novels and one short story are currently available in the series:  Haven (#1), Destiny (#2), and Vampire Code (.5). The third novel, Origins, is in progress… 
 
‘Not so normal’ Question Spot

1. You’ve been bitten by a werewolf the month before.  It’s the full moon and tonight’s the night of your first change.  How do you prepare for this?  What color is your fur?  

Oh, easy!  I hang out with my wolf shifters:  my Black Hills Wolves and also the sexy-as-sin Wallace wolves from the Tranquilli Bloodline series. Knowing the Wallace men, they’ll likely ply me with a bit of whiskey before the shift happens. I’m sure all of them will provide me with numerous pointers and then take me for my first-ever run, in the Marin Headlands (just over the Golden Gate Bridge). My fur is red, of course. I’m a redhead, after all.

 2. Are you a lone wolf or part of the pack?  

Definitely part of a pack! Have I mentioned the sexy Wallace men? Oh, right. I have, LOL.

3. Your sire has sent you on a quest to bring back one of his flock. What magical creatures or persons do you bring with you to accomplish that task?
 
Assuming the missing flock member was kidnapped… I bring along two vampire enforcers (Primo and Segundo) and the Wallace wolf brothers because they’re all fierce fighters and excellent trackers.

4. You’re a newly sired vampire. Where do you sleep? What do you hunt and with who?  

I sleep in my bedroom in my comfy bed, of course. With blackout curtains on the windows. I don’t hunt; my sire’s minions bring us blood from the blood bank or from a willing donor.
 
 
Awesome answers! I would love to hear about your grandmother’s experience with the Banshee someday. Scratch the surface and you often find that the unexplained has visited us all in some way, shape, or form.
