blurb
When Samantha Ricketts finds herself placed in a town half-way across the country, her only worry is how did she get there, but when her life is saved by a handsome and mysterious man, the connection they feel is almost more than she can stand. Zander Smith was only acting on his instincts and training when he moved the dark-haired woman to safety but what he got from his heroics wasn't the distressed woman he had thought he was helping but a fireball of fury that sparked a storm within himself. Together they tap into the supernatural to uncover the mysteries surrounding the strange town they were slowly growing fond of before they became part of its history.

bio

He has had run ins with the ghost in the old house that she used to live in and find s that he is very protective of her and very attached.
book 2
ANNA NEUVILLE had lived in Burke Flats most of her youth, had seen the comings and goings of the strange little town, but for her there was nothing magical about the place. Scary, dark, secretive, and definitely a place of unrest-those were the words that she would use to describe how she felt about her home in the mountains. That was until she met William Stiles. FIRST LIEUTENANT WILLIAM STILES never liked being so close to any hot spot. Something in Burke Flats wasn't just hot, it was steaming, especially out by the marsh. He was a strong-headed lifer; there was no way he was getting out of the service anytime soon. He had entered straight from high school and moved up the ranks quickly, gaining a college education and taking command in Iraq several times. He had a Master's in Homeland Security and a Bachelor's in Strategic Leadership. He had never questioned his abilities until Anna stepped into his life.
book 3
PEIGHTON WEAK She was the one that Dell always called in. There was nothing that Peighton couldn’t figure out when she’s put in the right situation. Having witnessed Dell’s death, Peighton set out to solve the mystery that surrounded Aldenville, and she had Scott by her side to do it. Peighton came with the highest recommendations in her field, and Dell always requested her when she stumbled on the black hole. She is an expert at dry cave diving and anthropology. SPECIAL AGENT SCOTT EMBRY Embry was an ex-Special Ops, if anyone could ever be one, who transferred to the FBI’s special new division after his medical discharge. It was strange to step into a world outside his own after living in the military ranks for so long, but at the same time he had seen some things on his tours that brought the rest of the “known” world collapsing down on him. The S.P.I.R.I.T. division of the FBI was a bit different than the military units deployed around the country. Most of the agents he knew were the first in after everything was cleared and taken care of, but with Embry and his canine companion, they seemed to be the ones that stepped in just as everything came to a boil and things weren’t looking good for the unit members.


Angels with Attitude - Author Interview

What would you have done differently if you were the main character of your book ? 

 I think they are all perfect, I believe the love story in Fire Storm could use a little more time.
What was your inspiration behind this book?  A dream, the first chapter is the last thing I remember when I woke up.

 Anne Rice, Stephen King, Christine Feehan, and a lot of the Anchor Group authors and Indie authors that I have come to know since publishing

Do you like to write your books in a continuing series? 

My books follow a path of their own.  While the S.P.I.R.I.T. series follows the actual military unit, each book is a different team or individual connected to it.

I actually would date Julian Deveraux from the Vampire Legacy, he has been my crush since I met his inspiration.

What kinds of books do you like to read in your spare time?

 Anything

As a reader and writer I think it is important to get to know your fans and make a connection with them as an author who takes the extra step to hear what their fans think and want in their continued writing is continued success and key to selling more books .Do you agree with that?

  I absolutely agree with it.



 Yes.

 Originally I designed the covers myself and after joining Anchor Group, we’ve had several cover designers.

Julian or Zander, it’s a toss-up
If you were able to dine and have a one on one with your favorite writer/author who would it be?  Anne Rice, definitely.

Do just re-read your favorite books?

 Most definitely.

Do you ever get in a reading slump like your readers do?

 I get into a writing slump, especially when things are busy and I can’t get myself going.


What is the funniest book you ever read? 

 There are a lot of them, I don’t think I pinpoint just one.

clip_image017 Being raised in both the Northeast corner of Vermont and one of the larger cities in Massachusetts has given Dawn, a divorced mother of three, the unique ability to mix the spookiness of a small town ghost story with the fast pace action of city life. Island Pond, Vermont was every child's wonderland, with looming mountains and small towns nestled in the valleys, its simple lifestyle gave Ms. Gray the ability to let her imagination run wild, thus creating her unique style of writing, where the stories speak for themselves. Big city living, in her teenage years to the present allowed her to harvest that energy and creativeness to bring to life some of the most unique characters, such as Michael Raven and Julian Deveraux. Although Vampires are her most used basis for characters and settings, Ms. Gray's novels also venture into those of other supernatural realms, with ghosts, witchcraft and werewolves coming into play in several of her upcoming manuscripts.
