Summary
From bestselling author Kaitlyn Davis comes a paranormal romance perfect for fans of Twilight, The Vampire Diaries, and Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
“With one last look, one final search of the lines of his face for some sign, Kira turned and ran away from the sound of the man she loved laughing in the face of her death.”
When Kira Dawson moves to South Carolina, she meets Luke, a blond goofball who quickly becomes her best friend, and Tristan, a mysterious bad boy who sends shivers down her spine. Kira knows they’re keeping secrets, but when she discovers Tristan’s lust for blood and her own dormant mystical powers, Kira is forced to fight for her life and make the heartbreaking decision between the familiar comfort of friendship and the fiery passion of love.

RAVE REVIEWS for the Midnight Fire Series!
“The writing is effortlessly mind blowing. I could not put this entire series down. Once you’re hooked, you won’t either because it’ll eat you up not knowing what happened! And then you’ll pick a team like I did and you’ll fall in love with all the characters and you’ll want all the bad guys to die horribly! Just trust me when I say it really is your loss to miss out on this series! It’s a blaze of glory!” – Happy Tales and Tails Blog
“Kaitlyn Davis writes some of the best action scenes I have come across in a young adult book; they are fast paced and so well delivered making this more than just a silly romance.” – Reflections of a Bookworm
“The only downside to this series, is that it ended. But the ending was beautiful.” – My Seryniti
“Kira isn’t a human girl who is one dimensional and in love with a vampire. She’s a well-thought out character who comes to life from the pages and steals into your heart. Read the books. Do it.” – Urban Girl Reader
“I love and hate how fast of a read this was! I love it because I couldn’t get enough of it and hate it because once I finished I wanted more!” – I Just Wanna Sit Here And Read
“I really enjoyed Ms Davis’s writing, I was riveted throughout and was eager to see what would happen – there was drama, danger, action and romance that was wonderfully detailed and described.” – Obsession With Books

Take a moment to enjoy this fun interview with Kaitlyn Davis
What gave you the inspiration to write the Midnight Fire series?
I‘ve always been a huge fan of vampire lore (what up, Buffy!)! If there was a book, I read it. A television show, I watched it. A movie, I rented it. But I’ve always thought there is some more epic way they could be killed! Beheading? So old school. Stake through the heart? Too overdone. Sunrise? Talk about passive.
But one day, I was walking on the beach, and suddenly it hit me—the sun! Magical beings who fought vampires by channeling the sun! Once that idea came to fruition, the story just flowed out of me.
Can you describe your Midnight Fire Series in three words?
Thrilling, shocking and, of course, romantic!
Who is your favorite character from your book and why?
So tough! I definitely fell in love with my two leading men, but I have to say my main character Kira has got to be my favorite! She is thrown so many curve balls and her life is turned completely upside down, but she manages to keep it together and persevere. I love a girl who can kick some ass and doesn’t let the boys fight her battles!
Did anything (or anyone) surprise you while writing your series?
Um… everything? I always go into my books with a solid outline, but the story somehow gets away from me and gains a life of its own—and I love that! In particular, the story line for one of my male leads really surprised me 🙂 I can’t say which one or I might give the ending away.
What scenes in the books are you most proud of, and why?
If we are talking about the first book, Ignite, I would have to say a scene in the middle of the book that takes place in the school auditorium—if you’ve read it, you know what I’m talking about! In that moment, I truly believe my series separates from the plethora of paranormal romances out there and blossoms into something entirely its own.
But on the other hand, if we’re talking about Scorch, the final book in the series, it would be the second chapter from the end… you’ll just have to read it to find out why 🙂
Is there a message in your series that you want readers to grasp?
Life is a journey and you have to make your own choices. Don’t let other people decide your fate for you.
Can you tell us a little about how the covers were designed?
Thank you–I designed them! Fire is just so brilliant and striking, I knew flames would really pop against a black-and-white backdrop. And, well, fire is a VERY important part of my story—it means life for some and death for others, and it defines the course of Kira’s life.
Thinking way back to the beginning, what’s the most important thing you’ve learned as a writer from then to now?
Trust in yourself and your fans. That is hands down the most important thing about being a writer in my humble opinion. There will always be an agent who rejects you, a reviewer who gives you one star, or someone else out there to hurt you in some way. It’s up to the writer to believe in his or her work, to continue pushing forward, and eventually it will payoff. Anytime I get a bad rating, I think about the amazing fans who comment on my Facebook wall, tweet at me or email me, and I know that I’m doing something right.
Anything you would say to those just starting out in the craft?
Write the story you want to tell—don’t worry about the trends, or what’s popular at the time, or what anyone else might think.
Where and when do you prefer to do your writing?
Anywhere and everywhere! Starbucks and my couch are probably the top two, but I also frequent the library, parks, and occasionally my desk 🙂 Normally, I like to write in the afternoon, but if I’m on a roll I’ll keep going until I fall asleep mid-sentence!
Do you read reviews written about your book?
Definitely! The great ones are amazing, and provide a much-needed ego-boost for those moments of complete self-doubt, but bad reviews have their place as well. No writer is perfect–at least I’m certainly not! And anytime someone gives useful criticism, I use it to improve upon my next writing endeavor.
What’s the hardest part of writing a book?
What comes after! During the writing process, I get totally lost in my own world and I let the characters take me on a journey. But after, I’m thrown back into real life and that’s when the doubts creep in! Will people like it? Does it suck? Is it totally boring? Is the romance completely flat? Can people see the curveball coming from a mile away? The hardest part about writing is cutting off those questions and trusting in the book I spent so much time crafting.
Who is your author idol?
It sounds cliché, but I have to say J.K. Rowling. To have your books touch the lives of so many people—it’s incredible! And even more so, I love that she took a chance on a new post-Harry project that was just completely different than anything she had written before. That takes guts!
State 5 random facts about yourself.
1) I’m scarily obsessed with puppies.
2) I chipped a tooth while surfboarding.
3) I’m a complete candy cane hoarder around Christmastime.
4) I love chick flicks—the cheesier, the better!
5) I detox with reality TV… and justify it as character research.
What’s up next for you?
In Feb 2014, I’ll be launching a new young adult epic fantasy series—think Game of Thrones meets Graceling! The first book is called The Shadow Soul, and it is about two magic wielding lost souls. A girl, Jinji, who can weave master illusions, and a boy, Whylrhen, who can pull burning flames into his flesh. But neither of them knows what they are truly capable of until a chance encounter brings them together. For their story has played out before, in a long forgotten time—an age of myth that is about to be reborn…
