Why My Series Is Unlike Any Other

by D.N. Simmons

I’m very honored to be here and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this opportunity to meet new readers.  My name is D.N. Simmons and I’m an urban-fantasy/paranormal romance author. My series Knights of the Darkness Chronicles is phenomenal, sexy, highly entertaining and completely addictive… well, that’s what I’ve been told. Who am I to disagree *giggle*.  When I say that my series is unlike any other, I really mean it. You will NOT find another series quite like it in the genre. That was my sinister plan from the very beginning.  I wanted to create a series with a platform that would take readers into a completely unique and bold direction with characters they could relate to. The story lines are original from book to book and they keep you engaged from the beginning to the end.  I know that the shelves are filled with paranormal books, especially those involving vampires and shape-shifters. And if you’re a fan of the genre, like I am, you may think that you won’t find anything too original because the market is already flooded.  That’s only because you haven’t read the KOTDC yet.

See, I’m the kind of person that gets extremely enthusiastic about awesome storytelling. When I finish reading a great book or watching an amazing movie, I’m still buzzing about it. One of the reasons why I get so excited is because of exceptional writing and imagination. I appreciate that so much, therefore, I knew I had to give my readers the very best I could give them.

The Knights of the Darkness Chronicles isn’t just a series you read. It’s a series you experience.  You’ll know exactly what I’m talking about when you grab the first book. 😀 Trust me.

As part of my author post, I decided my characters would be the best introduction in my creative mind. So please allow me to introduce you to vampire Master of Chicago, Darian Alexander:

Darian:

The man himself. The Greek God breathtakingly gorgeous and incredibly dangerous at the same time. Don’t let his piercing forest green eyes and school boy dimpled grin fool you, he’s as deadly a predator as they come. His reputation is never  misunderstood, those who know his name fear him. Darian is not someone to mess with, for he has ways of dealing with those who cross him. He controls the entire city of Chicago. Even the S.U.I.T. organization steers clear of him and his dealing. Jaded by  his many years of existence, he has a tendency to be callous when it comes to humans. He’s been there and done  that, so to speak and he’s rarely  surprised by humanity. His charm,  intelligence and debonair personality is what drew the lovely and beautiful queen of the leopard Pride to him, even against her own Pride’s wishes.

Unfortunately for Elise, there is but  one person in his life that has his whole heart, his Xavier. At least, that is what  he thought until he met Natasha. The  young woman intrigues Darian, baffles him, even. He wants her and only time will tell  for us to see if he gets what he wants. Keep reading.

* I sent Darian an email this afternoon asking him one question.  He sent me back a reply.

Hi Darian.

I just had a quick question I wanted to ask you.  I have an author guest spot on an awesome blog and I wanted to introduce new readers to you. I think that once they meet you, they won’t be able to get enough of you. I know I can’t. 😀

Anyway, here’s my question:

What Turns You ON?

Sexy question, eh? I can’t wait to hear what your response is.

Ttyl,

D.N.

Hello D.N.,

I’m always thrilled when I see an email from you. However, I must admit, I was disappointed that you didn’t ask me this question in a more intimate setting.

Maybe later. *wink*

Your question: “What turns me on?”

I’m a lover of both men and women; I find both sexes to be enchanting. I am moved by an individual’s inner strength, loyalty and confidence. That’s what catches my interest first. Then there’s everything else. I adore the feeling of warm limbs wrapped around my body. I love the seductive scent of desire and the heat that flows from my lover when they know I want them and that I will have them. The moment when I look into their eyes and know that I am giving them the greatest of all pleasures. Oh, how I savor the rapture that takes them and doesn’t let go until I release them… that D.N…. turns me on.

Until we meet again,

Love,

-D
