IN A DREAM BEYOND...: Stockings and Suspenders

Happy Tuesday, readers! I'm really happy to welcome back to T 'n'T's Confidential author C.R. Moss. Remember her? She stopped for a visit a few months ago to talk about her sexy cowboys. Today, she's going to tell us all about her Naughty Fairy Tale Lovers and the Fiend.

Lovers and the Fiend:

Ex-cop turned private investigator, Jack Vorst, learns his elf girlfriend Kristina has been missing for a few days after being invited to an underground vampire club. He, too, is summoned to visit club Hexenringe and is taken captive. Jack finds Kristina bound and gagged in a human sized bird cage. They’re both thrust into a kinky world at the hands of Kol, the club owner. Kol, a vampiric beast, shifts into human form to be with Jack and Kristina and needs them to remember their pasts and to love him so he can return to what he used to be. Can Kol make the pair fall in love with him despite his current situation and the fact he’s keeping them captive or will they leave, making it too late for him to change all their fates?

Welcome back to T n’T’s Confidential, C.R.!
Thanks for having me. I’m happy to be here!

You’ve just released a Naughty Fairy Tale, Lovers and the Fiend, tell us about it…

Lovers and the Fiend. This is a story in Evernight Publishing’s Naughty Fairy Tale line. The characters, Jack and Kristina, appeared in my short story – Chasing Miss Kringle – that’s in an Evernight Publishing anthology – Stockings and Suspenders. This is the first of a handful of stories I have planned for the NFT line that revolve around the world started in CMK and Lovers. Readers, you don’t have to read the anthology story to read Lovers, but it’d be nice if you did. ;) The idea for the world these characters exist in came when I got the idea for Chasing Miss Kringle for Stockings and Suspenders. At first the anthology story was just going to revolve around a guy meeting a woman at a 5k race, but then my muse ran with the paranormal idea and created a dual investigation service. Then, I had an urge to write for the NFT line and figured CMK would be a good place to start with a world and setting for that story. It all takes place in my home town of Las Vegas.

Why did you pick out this particular fairy tale?

The book I’m promoting today is based off of Beauty and the Beast. That story, along with Sleeping Beauty, was one of my favorite tales as a child. There are also two other fables threaded into the book. One is off of an elves story and the other a rendition of Jack Frost.

How was the creation process for this one? If possible, share with us one surprising thing you discovered while writing Lovers and the Fiend.

At times the story flowed and at others it slowed down due to some research I needed to do for it. I enjoyed coming up with the twists on the tales and putting it all together. As for a surprising thing, don’t know if this is ‘surprising’ but I did encounter some interesting websites and more fairy tales that I’ve marked for future reference.

What was the best part about writing this novel?

Stepping into writing some m/m again and exploring the dynamic between the two male characters.

What sets your hero and heroine apart from the rest?

Kristina is an elf. Jack is an ex-cop, now private detective, who still can’t quite wrap his mind around anything paranormal. And they both are being charmed by a supernatural creature named Kol.

As a reader, what do you look for in a book? How about as an author? Do you try to convey a message through your words?

As a reader: Well written with a good story line and depth to it. As an author: I try to deliver the best story I can for the subject matter I’m writing about. In regards to conveying a message, sometimes. It depends upon the story I’m working on.

About you….

Bio: My name is Chris, and I write under the names C.R. Moss for erotic and mainstream romance and Casey Moss for mainstream dark fiction (horror, suspense, urban fantasy). My professional bio for C.R.: “An eccentric and eclectic writer, C.R. Moss pens stories for the mainstream and erotic romance markets, giving readers Worlds of Possibilities when it comes to love.” Basically I write stories from the light and sweet to the dark and deadly with varying degrees of sexual heat. The bio for my other persona: Casey Moss delves into the darker aspects of life in her writing, sometimes basing the stories on reality, sometimes on myth. No matter the path, her stories will take you on a journey from the light-hearted paranormal to dark things unspeakable. What waits around the corner? Come explore…
