But first, a quick interview with Helen!
1. What are 5 things within touching distance?
A cup of green tea, The Fault In Our Stars by John Green, my PS3 remote, the telephone bill and one slightly snoring calico cat.
2. What is your least favorite word?
Whatever. Although it’s probably more the tone of voice and intention that people use when they employ it to dismiss someone or something, spitting it out as if it’s a swearword that I really dislike. I think it manages to convey utter disdain, apathy and disgust all at the same time, and it annoys me intensely.
3. What part of the writing process do you dread?
The last chapter. I hate writing the ending of the books, even more so than editing or proofreading. When I wrote my first book, Bloodfire, it took me a month to write the ending. With Bloodmagic, I hammered out 80,000 words in three months and then it sat unopened on my computer for a full further six months because I didn’t want to write the ending. I guess that maybe it’s because I enjoy writing the books so much that, when it gets to the end, I just don’t want it to be over.
4. What is your favorite Joke?
A horse walks into a bar and the barman says, ‘Why the long face?’
It’s a silly joke, but it was my dad’s favourite one. He passed away five years ago now and it always makes me think of him fondly.
BLOOD DESTINY SERIES
by Helen Harper
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURBS:
Bloodfire
.
Mackenzie Smith has always known that she was different. Growing up as the only human in a pack of rural shapeshifters will do that to you, but then couple it with some mean fighting skills and a fiery temper and you end up with a woman that few will dare to cross. However, when the only father figure in her life is brutally murdered, and the dangerous Brethren with their predatory Lord Alpha come to investigate, Mack has to not only ensure the physical safety of her adopted family by hiding her apparent humanity, she also has to seek the blood-soaked vengeance that she craves.
~~~~~
Bloodmagic
.
After escaping the claws of Corrigan, the Lord Alpha of the Brethren, Mack is trying to lead a quiet lonely life in Inverness in rural Scotland, away from anyone who might happen to be a shapeshifter. However, when she lands a job at an old bookstore owned by a mysterious elderly woman who not only has a familiar passion for herbal lore but also seems to know more than she should, Mack ends up caught in a maelstrom between the Ministry of Mages, the Fae and the Brethren.
Now she has to decide between staying hidden and facing the music, as well as confronting her real feelings for the green eyed power of Corrigan himself.
~~~~~
Bloodrage
Mack begins her training at the mages’ academy in the hope that, by complying, the stasis spell will be lifted from her old friend, Mrs. Alcoon. However, once there, she finds herself surrounded by unfriendly adults and petulant teenagers, the majority of whom seem determined to see her fail.
Feeling attacked on all fronts, Mack finds it harder and harder to keep a rein on her temper. Forced to attend anger management classes and deal with the predatory attentions of Corrigan, the Lord Alpha of the shapeshifter world, her emotions start to unravel. But when she comes across a familiar text within the walls of the mages’ library, which might just provide the clues she needs to unlock the secrets of her background and her dragon blood, she realises that her problems are only just beginning…

About Helen Harper and where to find her books
Helen Harper is an English teacher currently living abroad in Malaysia. As a long time reader of urban fantasy, she finally bit the bullet and began to develop her own series of novels.
Helen has always been a book lover, devouring science fiction and fantasy tales when she was a child growing up in Scotland. “I always loved the escapism provided by those genres,” states Helen. “No matter how bad life gets, you can always find a route out, even if only temporarily, in the pages of a good book.”
The growth of urban fantasy fascinated her – the mix of reality and fantasy along with strong heroic female characters appealed from the very beginning, and inspired her to write her own.
