Easy, Breezy and Teasy with Brantwijn Serrah!



10 Satin and Steel Teasers

Readers are already asking for the sequel to Rhiannon's story! The good news is, the sequel is well in the works, and I'm hoping it'll be accepted and put into edits soon.  In the meantime, I'm feeling like a tease, so I've put together a quick list of tantalizing little hints of what's to come!
1.      The inspiration for Satin and Steel came from Lady Gaga's Teeth. There is an acknowledgment to this in the book, when the character of Vivienne asks Rhiannon, "Show me those exquisite little teeth."
2.      53 years have passed since Lotus Petals.
3.      The character Feste plays the archetypal Shakespearean fool. Which is why he is named after one.
4.      Both the shadiil shadow-walkers and the werewolves of the Blood Circle play a major role in Satin and Steel. Werewolf packs are natural male-dominant; shadiil prides are led by the females.
5.      One of the Blood Circle Councilmen makes an appearance in this book.
6.      Rhiannon's arousal-induced heartbeat is a bit of a metaphor for female ejaculation.
7.      Another character will have their fangs ripped out in this book. I think readers will be very pleased with to find out who.
8.      Rhiannon now carries Aijyn's kaiken knife, and Sölva has developed a phobia of the blade.
9.      We will learn a little more about Rhiannon and Sölva's history.

10.  We will meet Glory, Rhiannon's cousin and another kin-born vampire.

Book cover and blurb
Rhiannon Donovan, daughter to the vampire Queen, would rather die than be made a bride to a demon Lord. Aijyn, courtesan to the undead Daimyo of Kansai, can think of nothing more horrifying than his promise of eternal life.  In the halls of the Blood Lotus Temple, the two women struggle against the chains of their fate, and find a solace in each other that could mean freedom for them both... or might cost each of them their lives.

Author bio
When she isn't visiting the worlds of immortals, demons, dragons and goblins, Brantwijn fills her time with artistic endeavors: sketching, painting, customizing My Little Ponies and sewing plushies for friends. She can't handle coffee unless there's enough cream and sugar to make it a milkshake, but try and sweeten her tea and she will never forgive you. She moonlights as a futon for four lazy cats, loves tabletop role-play games, and can spend hours watching Futurama, Claymore or Buffy the Vampire Slayer while she writes or draws.
In addition to her novels, Brantwijn has had several stories published in anthologies by Breathless Press, including the 2013 Crimson Anthology and 2014 Ravaged Anthology.  She's also had a short story published in the Cleiss Press Big Book of Orgasm and the anthology Coming Together Through The Storm. She hopes to have several more tales to tell as time goes on.  She has author pages on GoodReads and Amazon, and loves to see reader comments on her work. Her short stories occasionally pop up at Foreplay and Fangs, her blog at http://brantwijn.blogspot.com
