Aurora​ – first known dragon lycan hybrid. She’s a take no shit kind of a girl. She has a very bad temper and impulse control problems. Her sense of justice is absolute. There’s no grey area in her thinking when she’s passing judgement.

Sebastian​ – Lycan mate of Aurora’s. In his mind he’s an alpha and his cockyness in the beginning he pulls it off for a while. He’s literally the pack asshole / bully in a sense. He feels entitled in the sense his father was alpha and now he’s the first mate so he feels he’s above the other mates. 

Dominik​ – Dire Wolf mate and twin to Jayce. He’s kinda very Switzerland with a lot of things. He’s an enforcer so he has a strong sense to protect. He’s not fond of Sebastian cause of his over inflated sense of self. He’ll do what he has to do to protect his mate and brother.

My name is Aurora and I am the last of my bloodline. My family was killed by the Strigoi within moments of my birth. My life was entrusted to my Guardians Dimitri a Great Bear and Andre a Golden Eagle. We were sent through a portal to the new world to hide and protect me. We’ve spent the last two hundred years on the move like gypsies. The time has come and I’ve obtained my full power. The hunt for my mates is on. Once I succeed I will take back my mother’s throne and dance on the bones of the Strigoi. 

Share an excerpt

Her head whipped up to see her father walking away, giving her his back. She’d practically been disowned by her family for the disgrace she’s brought upon them. You can tell when it clicked, when Ravenna felt she had nothing left to live for. Her wolf immediately took over, having scented me on Aurora. Within moments, the smaller black wolf was attacking the great white wolf. It’s kind of sad to say, but Aurora’s wolf looks bored. She’s playing with the smaller wolf swatting at her and tossing her across the challenge circle. 

Without warning, Aurora shifted back to her mostly human form. She only left her hands and feet shifted to that of her wolf. Honestly her shifted hands and fingers look more dragon than wolf. Thick rigid white scales adorned her hands and fingers like armor. The talons at the ends of her armored hands look like velociraptor claws. Her tail still swayed behind her, showing just how relaxed she truly was. There was a defiant smirk on her lips as she stared down the pissed off black she-wolf. With a flick of her hand, she signaled for her to come at her.

 As Ravenna charged, Aurora leapt up, right hand out, with talons extended. Her momentum sent her over Ravenna’s shoulder, her claws sinking into the she-wolf’s throat. Aurora’s left hand shot out and into the she-wolf’s back. In one fluid move she severed Ravenna’s head, and ripped out her heart. Thick crimson fluid sprayed the crowd as Aurora completed her finishing move. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes I never would have believed it. 

Do you have a favorite scene?

The scene in the gladiator pit so far has to be my favorite. 

What advice would you give a beginner?

Don’t give up. Write the book you want to read.

The world of Vaelinel is failing–its fate bound to her in ways no one fully understands. A mysterious elven prophecy may provide her with some answers, but continuously hunted and fighting for her life, Irewen quickly learns that unearthing the truth will be more difficult than she ever imagined.
Can she accept the friendship of the Wood Elves, or will she stand alone against the terrifying evil now threatening to destroy the entire world?

Finally reunited with her companions, the burdens placed on them are taking their toll. Thoughts of suicide and mistrust plague the company. Slowly unravelling, they must conquer their personal battles before standing against the evil threatening the land.

A Prophecy Fulfilled

Regrouping after their escape from the Light Elves, Irewen and her companions fear the worst after black smoke plumes on the horizon. Allowing compassion to rule over reason, they ignore Finnwyn’s warning and return to Lilendvelle, hoping to help some of the survivors stranded in the city’s wake. Instead, they run into a trap.
Completely surrounded by an endless army of Drulaack, they fight
for their lives, but their efforts aren’t enough. Irewen is captured and dragged into the heart of the Corrupter’s lair.
Having his prize, the others in the company are granted their freedom, but at a great cost: the one named in the prophecy who is meant to unite the elf forces and stand against the Corrupter is lost to the world – trapped beneath the Corrupter’s talons.
With the aid of his mother’s spirit, Brendell must now find a way to gather an alliance strong enough to march against the Corrupter and his army, but his time is running out. Each day that passes brings Irewen closer to death.
And the world closer to destruction.

The Witchkin Murders
Magicfall Book 1
by Diana Pharaoh Francis
Genre: Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance
Four years ago, my world—the world—exploded with wild magic. The cherry on top of that crap cake? The supernatural world declared war on humans, and my life went straight to hell.
I used to be a detective, and a damned good one. Then Magicfall happened, and I changed along with the world. I’m witchkin now—something more than human or not quite human, depending on your perspective. To survive, I’ve become a scavenger, searching abandoned houses and stores for the everyday luxuries in short supply—tampons and peanut butter. Oh, how the mighty have fallen, but anything’s better than risking my secret.
Except, old habits die hard. When I discover a murder scene screaming with signs of black magic ritual, I know my days of hiding are over. Any chance I had of escaping my past with my secret intact is gone. Solving the witchkin murders is going to be the hardest case of my life, and not just because every second will torture me with reminders of how much I miss my old life and my partner, who hates my guts for abandoning the department.
But it’s time to suck it up, because if I screw this up, Portland will be wiped out, and I’m not going to let that happen. Hold on to your butts, Portland. Justice is coming, and I don’t take prisoners.
Diana Pharaoh Francis is the acclaimed author of a dozen novels of fantasy and urban fantasy. Her books have been nominated for the Mary Roberts Rinehart Award and RT’s Best Urban Fantasy. The Witchkin Murders is the first book in her exciting new urban fantasy series—Magicfall.
