Surrendering to the Alpha by Lia Davis (Interview/Giveaway)


Please give a warm welcome to author, Lia Davis, joining us with a special guest from her book - Surrendering to the Alpha!




Interview with the Alpha

Hi! I brought Keegan, Ashwood Alpha and hero of my latest release Surrendering to the Alpha, with me today to chat about Ashwood, his new love, and life. Oh, and Addyson sent chocolate chuck cookies. Help yourself, grab a chair and enjoy the view…er…interview.

Lia: Hello, Keegan. Can you share a little about yourself with everyone?

Keegan: Hi. Um, sure. I’m old and I hear voices.

Lia: *hiding a smile* We’ll need more information than that. Tell them about your voices since you brought it up.

Keegan: I’m telepathic.

Lia: And?

Keegan: *The corner of his lips lifted in a smile* The voices are a constant hum in my head. I’ve had them since I first shifted at the age of twelve. That was when my telepathic abilities came into full power.

Lia: It is like that with everyone?

Keegan: No. Not all shifters have a gift. Those who do come into their extra power at different stages. Most are born with their gifts, but the power strengthens slowly with age. Some grow up not knowing they have a gift until they change for the first time during puberty.

Lia: How long have you been Alpha of Ashwood?

Keegan: A little more than seven hundred years.

Lia: But that’s about to change.

Keegan: All things must change to allow growth. My decisions are for the better of the Pack. It’ll strength them. Plus the triad has a strong bond.

Lia: Yes. I can see that. What about Addyson?

Keegan: *growls* What about her?

Lia: Easy Alpha. I meant how is she? Where does she fit into your plans?

Keegan: She fits nicely by my side and in my bed.

Lia: Alrighty, then. What’s your favorite color?

Keegan:  Violet

Lia: The color of Addyson’s eyes. How sweet. Boxers or briefs?

Keegan: That is TMI.

Lia: *smiles* I already know the answer. You can share or I will.

Keegan: Now you’re being difficult.

Lia: You started it.

Keegan: *rolls his eyes, but there is a hint of a smile* Commando, mostly.

Lia: See. That was painless.

Keegan: I’ll never understand you females.

Lia: You don’t have to, just love us. Is there any future plans that you can share?

Keegan: Nope. Except that I plan to do everything in my power to bring Felix and the Onyx Pack down.

Lia: Yes. He needs to go down. Thanks so much for the interview.

You can find Keegan’s story in Surrendering to the Alpha.


Surrendering to the Alpha
Ashwood Falls #3
By Lia Davis
Published by Fated Desires Publishing
Find it on: Amazon | B&N | ARe | Kobo
Tag Line: She's given up hope of peace, yet the Alpha's touch offers promises too hard to run from.
Blurb:
Ashwood Falls’ leopard Alpha, Keegan Andrews holds onto the pain of his deceased mate as his own personal hell—a reminder that not all things are what they seem. The Pack Scribe, Addyson Lewis is no exception. She’s intrigued him like no other since the day she stumbled into Ashwood territory about twenty-five years ago. When he discovers that just being near her calms the storm inside him, he can’t stay away even if it means exposing her to the evil she tried to escape.
Over a hundred years of psychological torture at the hands of the rogue Onyx Pack has left Addyson with no memories of her life before captivity and with the inability to control her psychometric nature. Anything or anyone she touches sends her into their darkest past and secrets, causing her pain she wouldn’t wish on anyone. Without the ability to control it, she’s forced to deny her leopard the connection she craves from the Pack that welcomed her with love and without judgment. That is, until the day Keegan involuntarily touches her bare skin and she finds the peace she’d craved for far too long.
Warning: Contains one sexy alpha leopard who craves the most decadent of dreams, a hidden treasure contained within a spunky woman, and the ability to create a mating bond that’s the most explosive yet.

Winter Eve (prequel)
A Tiger’s Claim (book 1)

Excerpt: 

He stepped closer and studied her as she turned back to the omelet. Keegan ground his molars, took a deep breath, and calmly asked, “Do you like it here?”

She peered back at him, her eyebrows bunched together before she smoothed out her features in that practiced control she used around others. “It’s not home, but it’s nice. I don’t need much, Keegan.”
He took another step toward her. She turned the stove off and handed Will his plate. The boy stood, watching Keegan as if he would harm Addyson. It made Keegan proud of the kid that he’d want to protect Addyson.
Without looking at the teen, Keegan said, “Will, take your breakfast in the living room and eat before it gets cold.”
From the corner of his eye, Keegan saw Will peer at Addyson. When she gave him a nod, he left them alone. Keegan took another step forward, stopping inches from her. He heard her heart beat speed up and smelled her strawberry scent intensify, but not in fear. She was turned on by his presence.
He inhaled deeply, taking in her scent. His leopard rubbed up against his chest, trying to feel Addyson. He’d never imagine in the past thirty-seven years that he’d find another mate. Then Addyson stumbled into his life about twelve years after losing Cate. He wasn’t ready then, the pain still too raw to see what the leopard tried to make him see.
He’d finally started to accept it, accept the fact that Addyson has a place in his heart and in his bed.
