I have another fun day planned for you guys today! I was asked to be apart of The Grey Wolves Series Tour hosted by Misa over at These Paper Worlds which hosts some pretty cool tours so you should definately head over there and sign up! For this tour I have been granted a giveaway with our lovely author Quinn Loftis. Before I share the interview with you let's learn some more about the author and her books shall we?
I am a 31 year old wife, mother, nurse and author, not always in that order. I live in Arkansas with my husband, my 4 year old son, and our 7 month old Doberman Pinscher. I hope to be able to write full time one day, but right now feel very blessed to be able to self publish my books. (Taken off Amazon.com)
Now that we know about the author lets check out her three books which are apart of The Greay Wolves Series!
Jaque Pierce was just an ordinary 17 year old girl getting ready to start her senior year in high school in Coldspring, Texas. When a mysterious foreign exchange student from Romania moves in across the street, Jacque and her two best friends, Sally and Jen, don't realize the last two weeks of their summer was going to get a lot more interesting. From the moment Jacque sets eyes on Fane she feels an instant connection, a pull like a moth to a flame. Little does she know that the flame she is drawn to is actually a Canis Lupus, werewolf, and she just happens to be his mate; the other half of his soul. The problem is Fane is not the only wolf in Coldspring, Texas. Just as Fane and Jacque are getting to know each other, another wolf steps out to try and claim Jacque as his mate. Fane will now have to fight for the right to complete the mating bond, something that is his right by birth but is being denied him by a crazed Alpha. Will the love Fane has for Jacque be enough to give him the strength to defeat his enemy, will Jacque accept that she is Fane's mate and complete the bond between them? (Synopsis from Goodreads)
(Synopsis from Goodreads) With the challenge complete and the corrupt Alpha of Coldspring defeated Fane is now free to complete the mate bond with Jacque and perform the Blood Rites. Although the challenge is done, the affects are far reaching. Once it is known that Vasile, one of the strongest Alphas in the world is in America, specifically Coldspring, TX, there is one Alpha who cannot over look the significance of this. An Alpha who happens to share Jacque's DNA, but is this the one she needs to fear?
With her mom driving and her two best friends, Jen and Sally in tow, Jacque sets off for her happily ever after. She will soon realize a plan has been put in motion that will change her course and possibly tear her from Fane's grasp forever. It will take a wolf pack, her mother's love, her two best friend's unrelenting determination, her own will to survive and the undying love of her mate to bring her home. The question remains, if she fights, if she endures, who will she be, what will be left once she is back in her mates arms?
(Synopsis from Goodreads) Jennifer Adams, best friend to Jacque Pierce and Sally Morgan, spicy, out spoken, a little crazy and human...or so she thought. Jen has just found out that human DNA is not the only thing that resides in her veins, she happens to share that little pesky werewolf gene, although it isn't more than just a drop. Now that she and her friends are living in Romania with Fane's pack, she is also oh so conveniently stuck with the object of her affection, the fur ball Decebel.
Drawn to each other by something they don't understand Jen finds herself frustrated by the lack of mating signs between her and said fur ball. Not only is she dealing with that not so un-frustrating problem, she now has been informed that because of that little drop of werewolf blood in her she is now required to attended a multi-pack gathering for un-mated wolves. This type of gathering hasn't taken place in over a century but with a shortage of females among the werewolf population the males are getting worried they won't ever find their true mates.
Meanwhile Decebel struggles with the emotions he is feeling towards Jen. He tries to keep his distance but there is just something about the mouthy blonde that keeps him coming back for more of her verbal abuse that he just can't seem to get enough of...go figure.

Few, now on to the interview for those of you who are still with me!
1. When did you first know you wanted to be a writer?
It really hit home when I was in high school and wrote a poem on the civil war that was published in a magazine by one of my history teachers. I realized then how much I loved sharing my stories with others.
2. What was your inspiration for writing about wolves?
Patricia Briggs probably has had the most influence on me. Her Mercy Thompson Series and Alpha and Omega Series are two of my favorite were-wolf books
3. How many books are originally supposed to be in the series?
There will be at least 7 books in this series
4. Are you a big reader as well as a writer? If so what types of books do you like to read?
I love to read. When I'm not writing I read a book a day or every other day. I read YA paranormal, Scifi, Murder Mystery, and Spooky stories.
5. Where did you get your inspiration for Jaque Pierce?
Jacque is a mixture of my personality with some mixtures of some of my high school girlfriends.
6. Where is your favorite place to write?
A quiet study room in the public library or my big soft recliner.
7. What gets you motivated to write?
Music, reading a really good book, and good reviews or emails from people with encouragement.
