Hello readers of The Naughty Pages of
the Phoenix and thank you Phoenix Johnson for having us.
We are delighted to be on your blog today as
it is a very special week for not only Naughty Nights Press (NNP) but also for
one of our authors, Kiki Howell.
Naughty Nights Press (NNP) has released its
first paperback novel, At War In The Willows by the Queen of Paranormal Erotica
herself, Kiki Howell. We always knew it was a step we were going to take one
day but finding the right time to do so and which book, was also a very
important decision. It was a difficult selection to make from all our wonderful
authors, but in the end we went with our readers choice for Ms. Howell’s At War
In The Willows trilogy.
Just over twelve months ago, Ms. Howell began
writing a trilogy that had us intrigued and excited. We have always
affectionately dubbed Ms. Howell as the Queen of Paranormal Erotica and her
trilogy series At War In The Willows, proved this beyond any doubt.
Each book she bought out, starting with The
Vampire’s Witch, then The Vampire’s Wolf and finally with The Vampire’s Human
proved that our title for her was correct.
As can be seen from her reviews, people were
very impressed with the series.
NNP invite you to follow the At War In The
Willows book tour, starting here with a pre-tour appearance. The list of blogs
involved can be found under the Blog Tour Button at the top of the page.
Don’t forget to go to Createspace or Amazon
if you wish to purchase a paperback copy of this wonderfully haunting book or
go to the NNP eStore to purchase a digital format of the book.
NNP would like to thank Mr. Shane Willis from
Rad Act Photos for the beautifully
designed book covers for all three of the series that he was then able to
combine into the brilliant cover that we have now.

The queen of paranormal erotica, Kiki Howell has captured our hearts with her trilogy, At War In The Willows. The first book, The Vampire’s Witch was quickly followed by The Vampire’s Wolf and ended with The Vampire’s Human.
Synopsis:
The Willows is a resort town run by vampires, werewolves and witches. Here, their true identities are kept secret from humans, and intimate relations between the individual clans are strictly forbidden.
When it becomes known that the vampire Amberlyn has fallen in love with the werewolf Kane, the tedious line of their co-existence has been crossed. Caught in the crossfire of this revelation, Drake, the vampire clan leader and Amberlyn’s maker, is killed along with an innocent witch. These deaths spark a series of horrific events leading to an all out War In The Willows.
Unexpected close encounters, bodies ripe with need, and situations beyond their control lead to forbidden relationships. Now three vampires, a witch, a werewolf and a human must ride along the edges of the rules. They will attempt once unthinkable romantic entanglements despite all those who oppose their relationships, while fighting for their lives as well.
With the Willows full of violence and bloodshed, meetings and magic amiss, will the clans ever be able to find peace among them again? Or, will this war destroy the Willows?
What people have said
about At War In The Willows
Good
plot, great characters and sexy enough to raise the temperature in my house
about 20 degrees. A real page turner! ~4/5 Stars by Angela Holtz:
Reviews for Book I, The Vampire's Witch
“This is the first adult book I've read by Kiki Howell. And it
was delicious! Good plot, great characters and sexy enough to raise the
temperature in my house about 20 degrees... It's a very fast read, only about
50 pages. But it's a real page turner!” ~4/5 Stars by Lilac Wolf
“Ms Howell weaves a spell binding web that ensnares the mind and
lets the reader drift away in to another world. I highly look forward to the
next two books in this series!” ~4/5 Stars by Phoenix Johnson
(That's right, I reviewed The Vampire's Witch and loved it!)
“This is a sexy but short vampire and witch story which takes
place in the middle of an upcoming war between three species. I can't wait for
the next book in the series.” ~ 4 Stars from Linda Tonis, Member of the
Paranormal Romance Review Team
Reviews for Book II, The Vampire's Wolf
“This is the second book in the series and picks up exactly
where the first when left off… This is a short story with explicit sex. I can't
wait for the next book to find out what Devin's story is and to continue
learning about Isaac and Amberlyn.”~ 4 Stars from Linda Tonis, Member of the
Paranormal Romance Review Team
Coming
soon on Kobo, B&N and Diesel Books

Meet
Kiki Howell
Ever since she was young, Kiki Howell has loved to
listen to a well-woven tale with real characters, inspired plots, and
delightful resolutions. Kiki could spend hours lost in a book, and soon she
knew that creating lives, loves, and losses with just words had to be the
greatest thing that she could do. To that end, she pursued her study of literature and writing,
earning a bachelor’s degree in English. She then followed in a Master’s program
in Creative Writing.
“After a long
break having my boys, I finally just had to write again. And, as soon as I
gave the stories the space, they entered it. It’s both awesome and humbling to
find the words in my mind become characters on a page and create their lives.”
She has now had over thirty stories published
between eleven different publishers. Kiki could not be more thrilled or
grateful to see her creations polished and out in the real world. Please look around. Although a bit of
caution, most of her stories tend to hang out on the graphically sexy side of
town.
In May, 2011, Kiki was chosen as an Ohioana
Book Festival author
for her novel, Torn Asunder. And, in March 2012, Kiki was awarded
Bestselling Author for Naughty Nights Press, also earning two Silver Stars from
All Romance Ebooks for her NNP novellas: Love, Creativity and Magick; The
Vampire's Witch; and most recently Mystical Mayhem. Kiki's At War in the
Willows Series has also been nominated for Best Series of 2012 by Sizzling PR.
Kiki resides
in the Midwest with her incredibly handsome and talented,
singer/songwriter husband Stephen Howell and two children. When she is not
writing, she is spending time with her family, reading, baking or knitting.
Her biggest dream is to have a novel she writes be made into a movie that her husband creates the soundtrack for, and then cruise to Alaska with her family on the money they make.
