Author Bio:

M.A. Church is a true Southern belle who spent many years in the elementary education sector. Now she spends her days lost in fantasy worlds, arguing with hardheaded aliens on far-off planets, herding her numerous shifters, or trying to tempt her country boys away from their fishing poles. It’s a full time job, but hey, someone’s gotta do it!

When not writing, she’s exploring the latest M/M novel to hit the market, watching her beloved Steelers, or sitting glued to HGTV. That’s if she’s not on the back porch tending to the demanding wildlife around the pond in the backyard. The ducks are very outspoken. She’s married to her high school sweetheart, and they have two children.

She was a finalist in the Rainbow awards for 2013.

Blurb(s):

A snowstorm in the South—on New Year’s Eve—is a perfect recipe for a catastrophe. After two soul-crushing bad breaks, Kirk’s waiting for disaster number three to strike when naturally, two stray cats arrive on his doorstep during the storm and decide to make themselves at home. Tenderhearted Kirk lets them stay even though there’s something decidedly odd about his overly friendly felines.

 

Out of the punishing weather, and full of tuna, Dolf and Tal are happy to be snug in Kirk’s house. But then their human goes outside for firewood and suffers a nasty fall that leaves him unconscious. Now the two cats have no choice but to reveal themselves.

 

Kirk wakes up to find the two kitties are actually Dolf and Tal. They’re cat shifters—and his destined mates. Being part of a feline threesome is enough for Kirk to grapple with, but soon he learns they come from a clowder that doesn’t believe humans and shifters should mix. Kirk knew those two cats would be trouble. Little does he know the real trouble lies ahead.

Excerpt:

Dolf picked out the saw he wanted, then followed Tal to another aisle. His mate pointed out the different kinds, but Tal’s words had rapidly faded into a meaningless buzz. There, on the air currents in the store, was the sweetest scent. It was light and flowery, reminding him of honeysuckle. He breathed deeply, taking the scent into himself. His cock hardened immediately and his head spun. A yowl threatened to escape.

That scent… that scent was seductive and alluring. It spoke to him, whispering things that made him need. His cat paced frantically in his mind, tail slashing madly. The need to pounce, to sink his canines in and drink that sweet, life-giving blood of his…. His gums tingled and saliva flooded his mouth.

He swallowed, then swallowed again as his head pounded, his heart rate spiking as one thought screamed through his mind: Mate! Another mate! Where was that scent coming from? Or who? And by the goddess, why? He already had a mate. What was their goddess thinking, giving him another? But he couldn’t ignore the reaction. It had been the same when he met Tal.

2 – Why kitty shifters?

Why not kitty shifters, lol? *looks all innocent and stuff* Okay, okay, that’s not an answer. The why is a little more involved. While I like just about all shifters, cats are my fave. They’re a little mysterious. There’s a hint of danger that clings to them. Think not? Then you’ve never been stalked by a cat! It’s an experience, trust me. Cats can take you or leave you. They don’t slobber all over ya. *Snicker* Now the hubby is another matter.

*wink*

So, you’ve probably figured out I have a cat. His name is Kitty-Kitty. Yes, he’s an independent little cuss, but I like that. And believe me, when he wants my attention, he gets it. One way or another, lol. And believe it or not, he comes when I whistle, and he plays chase too. He, ah, just does it in his own cat-like way.

 

~Do you plan to visit this world again?

Oh, absolutely. I’ve already started on the second book. Fur, Fangs, and Felines is the series name. The titles are based on clichés. The tentative title for #2 is Behind the Eight Ball and is about one of the betas, Heller. If you read the book, you’ll see Heller has issues with humans. *grins* Bet you know what direction that’ll take me!

Poor kitty.

 

~What was the most difficult part of writing this book?

Getting the worldbuilding down and making sure it made sense. I love it and I hate it. Worldbuilding makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, and keeps me up nights tossing and turning, lol. I firmly believe there has to be an element of realism even to things that don’t exist. I also think…. Oh, um, I seem to have someone tapping me on the shoulder here and…. I see. *glares at the person* Okay, fine!

So, Dolf, one of the characters, said just because we don’t *think* they exist doesn’t mean they don’t.

*Sigh* That’s the thing about cats. They are opinionated and gotta have the last word, lol.

 

~What was the most satisfying?

*Snort* Dealing with this group? Writing the end was the most satisfying, lol. The book gave me fits. I ripped it to shreds, moved whole pages, cut things, added stuff, screamed, cried, and drove my betas completely insane. Which they would tell you is nothing new when dealing with me.

*snicker* Poor betas.

 

~And finally, how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Oh, well, that’s depends on if she sells seashells by the seashore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I’m sure she sells seashore shells! It all depends on how many seashells she sells at the seashore.

LOL.

 

Thanks for putting up with my special brand of insanity!
