GIVEAWAY! Cool Authors, Haute Dogs: DANI HARPER



PLEASE WELCOME DANI WITH FIONA AND TOBY
I am owned by two pugs, Fiona and Toby. Fiona is a 9-year-old brindle female and Toby is a 1-year-old black male. The age difference leads to a lot of eye-rolling by Fiona.
YOU CAN FIND DANI ONLINE:

Do you have another book in the works? 
Yes, I have Book Four of the Changeling Series underway. This one features Culley Macleod. I have to say he’s one of the most maddening characters I’ve ever tried to write about and I sincerely hope the heroine kicks his wolfy butt for me!
What are you reading right now?
Hunt the Moon by Karen Chance AND Lover Mine by JR Ward (I always have at least two books on the go, usually more!)
How many books a year do you read?
That’s a hard question. I’ve been a voracious reader all my life, but since becoming a full time writer, I have a lot less time. Before, I would finish a couple books a week, no problem. Now, I’m lucky to finish a couple books in a month!
 Fiona
What does your dog like to do while you write or read?

Fiona is my Executive Secretary, while Toby is still an apprentice. They are both very supportive of my writing. I use my laptop on the couch, and the pugs insist on sticking as close to me as possible like a pair of furry armrests as I type every word. Fiona likes to supervise and often rests her chin on the laptop so she can see the screen.

The dynamic duo also “guard the writer” from interruptions such as the Evil Paperboy and the Invasion of the Garbage Snatchers. Plus, they work hard to provide lots of “white noise” (read snoring and wheezing) to help my concentration.
 Toby

What is your dog’s favorite activity?

My pugs LIVE for going for walks! We live on an island in southeast Alaska, and there’s a forest hiking trail nearby that we enjoy. Fiona and Toby like to run around on the rocky beaches here too – especially if there’s a stinky fish to roll in!

Description for Changeling Moon


He roams the moonlit wilderness, his every sense and instinct on high alert. Changeling wolf Connor Macleod and his Pack have never feared anything--until the night human Zoey Tyler barely escapes a rogue werewolf's vicious attack.


As the full moon approaches, Zoey has no idea of the changes that are coming, and only Connor can show her what she is, and help her master the wildness inside.  With her initiation into the Pack just days away and a terrifying predator on the loose, the tentative bonds of trust and tenderness are their only weapons against a force red in tooth, claw... and ultimate evil.


Description for Changeling Dream

In times of stress Jillian Descharme has always found calm in her dream of a great white wolf with haunting blue eyes. But she is startled when the visions return and this time seem so real. Late at night he comes to her, speaks to her, touches her. It's almost as if he's alive...


Thirty years ago James Macleod lost his wife and unborn child to a killer bent on destroying the Changelings. Though he longed for death, his animal instinct fought for survival and James has been a wolf ever since. Yet now a woman has reawakened the man in him, taming wild instincts but arousing still wilder needs.  With his ancient enemy hunting the legendary white wolf, James must fight for new life, new hope, new love.


About the Author

  1. I don't think I've ever seen a brindle pug. They are both so cute! I enjoyed Dani's comments and can't wait to pick up one of her books-she sure stays busy on her island!
    Thanks!

  6. I love Toby and Fiona they are the best. When my husband was away recently I was telling him about them and said I wanted to have some luv pups and he got scared LOL Before he came home when we talked on the phone he said how's the dog and I said fine and he flipped :) Our dog of 18 years recently passed and he just not ready to make that step again. Thank you for the fun today. I was recently blessed with winning a copy of Changeling Dream and if it is not too greedy, I would love to win Changeling Moon as well :)
    Had to tweet about this one and share the luv: http://t.co/jDXiMWTm

  7. Pugs are wonderful, but Dani, your books are even better. No need to enter me in the contest--I've got and have read both Changeling Moon and Changeling Dream and I want more, now!!! Wonderful writing, wonderful story telling, and damn girl, but you know how to write a truly sexy hero! They just don't get any better. I'm going to be very anxiously awaiting the next one in the series. You've got me hooked. :-)

  9. Recently finally have a place where my little Chihuahua or one of my cats can be my executive helpers, put a pet bed under my desk and one or the other likes to sleep under there by my feet when I am on my computer.
    Pugs are such sweet dogs, my neighbor had one up until about 4 years ago and I miss that little dog as she used to come visit with me.


    Had my eye on these books for a while just not gotten around to getting copies yet.

  56. Dani, your pugs are so cute. I have never seen a brindle pug so that was nice. I used to dress my puppy up all the time, she hated it up until winter then she learned to love being warm outside on walks. Thanks for the giveaway.
