Please help us welcome Bayou Gavotte series author Barbara Monajem back to GraveTells! First off, I suppose I should apologize because neither the hero nor heroine of my new book in the Bayou Gavotte series is a hereditary vampire. For a blog at GraveTells, a vampire seems almost obligatory. Um…sorry, but I had no choice. Heart of Constantine is (duh) about the gorgeous, sexy, telepathic, vigilante, half-Navajo (enough adjectives?) rock star, Constantine Dufray, and he’s not the least bit interested in vampires, except as friends.

With a messed up family background and a tendency to grow claws and fangs, Tanner Chance isn’t exactly the boy next door. But he’s a decent cop, and he keeps himself on the side of the good guys.

Mr. Rush: Hi, Emma. Thanks for agreeing to do this interview. It’s my first character interview, so be nice.

Emma Martin: Don’t worry, as long as you don’t trigger my wrist to glow, you’re safe. **wink** Kidding. It’s awesome to be hanging out with Lynn Rush’s hubby. She doesn’t stop talking about you…as in EVER!

Ana has a problem - she's grieving a terrible loss, Taggart, the alpha jackass with neighboring property thinks that a little "forced seduction" is just what the doctor ordered to bring her to heel, and Connor Armstrong - mega hottie Scottish werewolf from her past who makes Ana's wolf sit up and beg has come back to town. She can take his protection for herself and her pack but it comes with a price - a little hanky panky, the frustration of his no extra information replies to her questions, and the danger of losing her heart to him - again. Add in some stupid human tricks, a whole posse of uber hot werewolves in Connor's pack (including his brother Liam), and danger, danger, danger! [...]
