Oliver King is her savior, a vampire who tries to show her the way. Through her journey, she learns far more than she ever thought she would about herself, and about the past. Soon, she discovers that there is so much more to meeting Oliver than mere happenstance.

INTERVIEW WITH MARIE LAVENDER
- What was your inspiration for Blood Instincts?
Blood Instincts came from the idea that we may not always know everything about ourselves. This story involves a woman who finds out she isn’t just human.
- Tell us about your main character in Blood Instincts. Who was your favorite character?
Can’t I love them both? I adore Oliver, the gentleman and vampire hero of Blood Instincts. But I also admire Myah. Her tale is so genuine. Of course she’s scared at first, but she really comes into her own.
- What was your favorite part about writing this story? Include any ritual or a special place you write when you begin your day in the answer.Â
My favorite part was imagining myself in each role. How might I react to the events in the story? A big portion of writing a paranormal tale is using your imagination.
- How much research did you do and what type? Include most interesting or most unusual.
Of course, I needed to learn about Baltimore all over again. But beyond that, I found a great forested area in the Adirondacks, a place that plays a major role in Oliver and Myah’s story. For the rest, I relied on facts from the previous book in the series, and the remainder came from the elusive muse.
- If you were pitching Blood Instincts, what would be your pitch?
What if you found out that you weren’t exactly…human? Oliver discovers a human who is not yet aware of her powers. However, Myah’s not so sure this attractive stranger is right, and she isn’t certain she’s ready to embark on such a journey…
- What is the next book in the series? When should we look for it?
The final book in the trilogy is called The Bloodseer Legacy. It is a dystopian paranormal romance, but I am not yet finished writing it.
- Any last words for our readers?
I hope you get a chance to check out Myah and Oliver’s tale! You won’t regret it!
