What inspired you to write this book?
I am a really touchy person. And I know this sounds like a
tangent, but I have a point. I love sitting right next to people and I can’t go
more than a few minutes in public without finding my husband, touching his arm
or hugging him and then running off again. My mom would always make a comment
that I get my energy from touching other people. So I thought, what if that
were a story? Bam. Legend Undone began. I had already had a few scenes and some
vague characters in my head from dabbling in writing, but now they had a
grounding piece of the story. People that need to siphon human energy to
survive.
What can we expect from you in the future?
So far, I like this writing thing and I think I’ll keep doing
it. My plan is to continue the Legends & Shadows Saga with a few more
books. I already have the second one in the works. Then we’ll see what other
stories and fantasies I can cook up.
Do you have any “side stories” about the characters?
Up until a few weeks ago, my answer would have been no. But
in Legend Undone, there is a character who I just love. His name is Thayer and
I can’t wait for everyone else to meet this charming, scheming, and loyal
person. I like him so much, I’ve been toying with the idea of a spin-off book
from his perspective.
Can you tell us a little bit about the characters in
Legend Undone?
The main character Mara is a Legend that needs human energy
to survive. She was also a Shadow and used to murdering humans for sport and
testing the limits of her power. Mara is strong, intimidating, and hates being
surprised.
Alec is the antagonist of the story and the leader of the
Shadows. He is the best liar anyone has met and has been keeping secrets from
Mara about why he wants her as a Shadow. He is desperately in love with power
and Mara, and when he loses her, he will stop at nothing to get her back.
Kylan meets Mara under the alias Kate, and the two slowly
fall in love. They find that the two of them are more alike than they are
different and they happen to be just what the other person needs. But Kylan is
resilient, kind, pure, and everything Mara could ruin.
We have some interesting side characters as well. Thayer, the
ultimate flirt and surprisingly the most gullible Shadow. Nikki, the cold and
cruel Shadow that is underappreciated but is determined to change that. Derek,
the loveable brother. Lisa, the shy at first but impressively clever human that
everyone loves to underestimate.
Readers
are calling it "creative" and "engaging!"
Mara
wasn’t just a Legend who survived on human energy, she used to be a
dangerous Shadow who wielded more power than she wanted. When she
discovered that Alec, the leader of the Shadows and her childhood
love, held a dark secret about her past to keep her prisoner until he
could use her against the humans, she ran.
As
the first Legend to escape the Shadows alive, Mara must keep moving,
hiding among the humans that every Legend learned to hate, while she
searches to understand her past. Under the alias Kate, she meets
Kylan and his way of life challenges everything she used to know. As
she falls for Kylan, she finds clues about what happened before she
became a Shadow.
But
the closer she gets to an answer, the faster Alec can destroy
everything she has grown to love.
