Can you tell us a little bit about your latest book? When did it come out? Where can we get it?
Our latest book is an ongoing serial novel, The Ghosts of Ravencrest. The first
three installments are now available in omnibus form. New adventures appear
about every six weeks. We also have a
novel called Grandma’s Rack, that
will appear this winter. Our solo novels can be found on Amazon or wherever
books are sold.
Is there anything that
prompted your latest book? Something that inspired you?
We both love gothics, from Rebecca to Dark Shadows.
Doing Ghosts of Ravencrest as a
serial novel lets us indulge this love and stay in touch with our readers.
Great! So, when did you know you wanted to write? Or has it always been a pastime of yours?
We were both born knowing this is what we wanted to do.
We’ve both written since early elementary school.
Me too!
Do you have any favorite authors?
We both like Ray Bradbury, Stephen King, J.R.R. Tolkien,
and Daphne Du Maurier.
Do you write in a specific place? Time of day?
We write daily, eight hours a day, six days a week, in our
virtual office. We call it Skypewriting. We stay connected by voice as we write
in the Cloud. We do this whether we’re collaborating or each working on solo
books.
That's awesome!
Are there any words you'd like to impart to fellow writers? Any advice?
Write what you love and write every day.
Great advice! Will do.
Readers, here is the blurb for The Ghosts of Ravencrest.
When Belinda Moorland steps across the threshold of Ravencrest Manor, she feels as if she’s entered a fantasy world. The mansion is breathtaking, and her new employer, Eric Manning, is as mysterious as he is handsome.
But after just one night, she begins to suspect there is more to Ravencrest than she was told. Haunted by nightmares and seduced by erotic dreams, Belinda realizes her new home has a dark side. By day, the house and grounds are sublime, but the night is alive with dark shadows and phantom footsteps in empty corridors. Eyes - and hands - are upon her, and not all of them belong to the living.
Here is an excerpt.
Seduced
by Darkness
She followed him inside the chamber. It
was lit only by guttering wall sconces and the dying flames in a fireplace
across the room. Rich tapestries lined the walls and the tall heavy four-poster
bed was covered with soft furs.
“Come be with me, Belinda.”
She raised her eyes and looked across the
bed. He stood in shadows, but she saw the glint of his teeth as he smiled. “My
darling girl.”
Heat rose in her belly and shot lower.
Flushed, embarrassed, she looked down at herself, saw her body through the
gossamer robe, saw her nipples turning dark and hard. It didn’t matter. Nothing
mattered but that voice …
What people are saying about The Ghosts of Ravencrest:
“If you’ve finished all of Sylvia Day’s
Crossfires novels and are craving more,
look no further. In The Ghosts of Ravencrest, Tamara Thorne and Alistair Cross have created a world that is rich,
opulent, and smoldering with the promise of seduction. You’ll be able to feel
the slide of the satin sheets, taste the fizz of champagne.”
-Sylvia Shults, author of Double
Double Love and Trouble
“The Ghosts of Ravencrest” by Tamara
Thorne and Alistair Cross is a fun, intricate read. The erotica is well crafted and the ornate
setting descriptions are breath-taking.
Most importantly, from page one, readers fall in love with Belinda. We care about what happens to her, and we
hope exactly what that is remains deliciously extensive!”
-Michael Aronovitz: author of Alice Walks
“Shocking and fun! The Ghosts of Ravencrest by Tamara Thorne and Alistair Cross will leaving you shivering with
excitement as the innocent Belinda breaks free of a minimum-wage hell hole only
