What kick ass theme song did Lara pick?
Sharon: Thanks for taking a moment to talk to the Flock. Since you have done a ton of interviews answering the same questions we decided to come up with 6 questions you probably have never been asked. Worried? Don’t be; just drink the Kool-Aid.
*evil cackles float up from the dungeon*
Lara: LOL! I’m not scared. Er, maybe just a little…Katie: Where’s the best place to vacation for a girl to meet a vampire, and do you have addresses and phone numbers?
Lara: Well, you should have pretty good luck finding them in Boston. Or Berlin, Germany. Or Montreal, Quebec. Even Alaska, but there have been some . . . issues up there in recent months.
And I’ve got something better than addresses and phone numbers. (Lara hands Katie a Breedmate mark temporary tattoo, a small red teardrop-and-crescent-moon symbol). Stick it on yourself somewhere easily visible and you’ll have hot Breed males swarming you in no time. You’re welcome. ;-)
Katie: Awesome! I shall tat myself now!
Sharon: Heyheyhey... don't forget about me! [tries to take tattoo from Katie]
*scuffle ensues and Sharon ends up with Coke all over her*

Lara: American Woman by Lenny Kravitz. Aside from the fact that Lenny is just freaking sexy-hot and has a smoking voice to match, how can any red-blooded American girl not feel badass and unstoppable hearing him belt that song out?
Lara: Tom’s of Maine. The Order is a New England-based operation, so they like to shop local wherever they can. But my CPA did mention I got billed for several cases of Crest strips going to an undisclosed location in Boston last year. We’re looking into the situation….
Sharon: I bet they use Wicked Fresh!
Katie: Ba-da-bing!
Lara: There’s this medieval tapestry I saw in Lucan’s study one time—a nighttime scene of a black-haired knight on horseback, grim-faced and formidable, while a castle burned on a hill some distance behind him. I think that tapestry would look pretty cool in my writing studio. Of course, I’d have to get through Lucan (and his Breedmate, Gabrielle) in order to get my hands on it.
Katie: What would be your weapon of choice during a zombie apocalypse?
Lara: Any member of the Order. And maybe a chainsaw. And a tank.
Katie: Can never be too prepared.
Sharon: What is the nerdiest thing you own?
Lara: Nerdy? I have no idea! Hundreds of cool fonts that I seem to collect for no good reason? I’m actually more of a klutz than a nerd, I think. Ask me how many scrapes, contusions and mishaps I've had this week alone, and we could be here all day.
Sharon: So you are a font hoarder!
Sharon: Coke or Pepsi? (if you don’t like either then pick the can that is the prettiest)
Lara: I’m not a soda lover, unless it’s drowning in a shot of something stronger, but I have always felt Coke was hands-down the king over Pepsi.
Sharon: Just when I was starting to like you too...
Katie: At some point Sharon, you will give up this fight. Coke is by far the clear winner. *pops collar*
Sharon: So how did we do? Have you been asked any of these questions? Thank you again and now Katie will give you a tour of the dungeon. We have a dragon you know….
Lara: A+ for originality! I had a great time answering your questions, Katie and Sharon. Thanks for inviting me to stop by today! And I would love that tour of the dungeon. I may love vampires, but I’ve also kinda got a thing for dragons….
Sharon: He flies too!
*Katie and Sharon grab Nerf guns and take Lara by the hand*
(because we don't need a lawsuit if her clumsy butt falls in our dungeon! <G>)
Thanks to Lara for taking the time to visit with us and to her awesome assistant Paula (Hey Paula!) for shipping out the cool swag and book for the giveaway.

Edge of Dawn (Midnight Breed #11)
In this pulse-pounding and thrillingly sensual novel, New York Times bestselling author Lara Adrian returns to the mesmerizing world of the Midnight Breed, following new characters into a dark future where an uneasy peace can unravel into war-and a great betrayal can mask an all-consuming love.
Twenty years after the terror of First Dawn-when mankind learned that vampires lived secretly among them-the threat of violence reigns as the two species struggle to coexist. The only group preserving the fragile harmony is the Order, an elite cadre of Breed warriors dedicated to protecting humans and vampires alike. And in this precarious world of torn loyalties and shattered trust, Mira, a fiery squad captain, finds that every fight bears an intensely personal cost.
Raised among the Order, Mira has always believed in the warrior's code of swift-and even lethal-justice. But the one thing she desires more than the Order's hard-won acceptance is Kellan Archer, a sexy but troubled Breed fighter. In love with him since childhood, Mira once broke through his tough exterior during an unexpected night of rapture, but the next day he mysteriously disappeared, never to return.
Kellan didn't think he would ever see Mira again-or have to confront the truth of why he left. After abandoning the Order years ago, he now leads a band of human rebels intent on carrying out their own vigilante rule of law. Yet a high-profile kidnapping assignment brings him face-to-face with the past he sought to avoid, and the striking woman he has tried desperately to forget. And as tensions mount and the risk of bloodshed grows, Kellan and Mira must take sides-between the competing missions that dominate their lives, and the electrifying passion that claims their hearts.

About the Author:
As a child, Lara Adrian used to sleep with the covers up around her neck, afraid she might become the midnight prey of deadly vampires. Later on, under the influence of Bram Stoker and Anne Rice, she had to wonder if her fear wasn't actually something else: a secret desire to walk in a darker world, to live a dangerous and sensual dream with a man of seductive, preternatural power. It is that twining of fear and desire that fuels Lara's own fantasies today, and the idea that she explores in her New York Times bestselling Midnight Breed series of vampire romance novels from Bantam Dell Books.With an ancestry stretching back to the Mayflower and the court of King Henry VIII, Lara Adrian lives with her husband in New England, surrounded by centuries-old graveyards, hip urban comforts, and the endless inspiration of the broody Atlantic Ocean.
