For those readers who may not know you, please tell them a few tidbits about Lynn Davis? 

Hi, thank you for stopping by. I'm Linda Harley, and it’s a pleasure to meet you. I was born and raised on the sunny beaches of Durban South Africa. More than a decade ago I went on the biggest adventure of my life, moving to the United States. I found myself in a strange culture, where people had difficulty understand my pure English, and drove on the wrong side of the road. Some of those experiences are captured in a comical way in my first science fiction romance novel, Destiny's Flower, Saldiora Book 1. Lynn Davis is kidnapped by handsome Lord Kyle von Talion and taken to a far of planet, Saldiora. As she finds herself in this unfamiliar culture, she must learn to fight with a sword, ride a talking horse, and endure the politics of a royal court if she is to survive.

Questions we asked Lynn Davis from Destiny's Flower, Saldiora Book 1 by Linda Harley !


What did you do before the story begun?
I was an assistant professor at a university in Georgia, where I conducted research on combining the theories of quantum mechanics and physiology to create a solution for defying the aging process.

What is your favorite part/memory?
My favorite memory is of the summers I spent with my grandparents, Grammy and Pappy. Pappy and I would usually work in his pottery, he was a true artist. Grammy kept the house and the books for the shop. At bed time, Pappy would tell me the most wonderful stories of a far off world where Kings and Queens lived.

If you and Prince Tristyn would go on a date, where would it be and why? 
Well, I am here to compete for the hand of Prince Tristyn, to be his queen. But I won't get to meet him for a few more months. I guess I would like to spend the date in a quiet garden getting to know him.

What are your favorite weapons?
I never touched a weapon until I came to Saldiora. Lord Kyle has been teaching me the short sword, but there is still much I must learn.

What/who would you never want to come across again?
If I had my wish, I would throw Brigieta von Neashop in the dungeons and throw the keys to the sell away. She is the most stuck up and annoying person, and we are always battling.

If you could have a re-match. With who would that be?
Brigieta and I have a re-match every time were in the same room. I've yet to win.

How does it feel that somebody wrote a book about you?
I am very flattered that Dr. Harley has graciously agreed to put my life story down on paper.  She's an amazing friend, and we've had fun writing the book.

And will we be reading about you in the future?
Oh yes, my story is far from over.

Linda Harley was born in Durban, South Africa and at the age of 7 developed a love for music. Her love for playing the piano has been a great motivational factor in pursuing her research in trying to understand how humans are able to learn to perform complex tasks with both arms at the same time. She received a BS and MS in Civil Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, USA in 2002 and 2004, respectively and in 2011 she received her PhD in Applied Physiology from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Her research interests are in understanding the mechanisms of learning to perform complex bilateral tasks and designing new technologies which would be beneficial to the field of physical rehabilitation. For example, the design of electronic games for the purpose of rehabilitation at home. She also loves writing science fiction romance novels.

Anna Strong from the Anna Strong Chronicle by Jeanne C. Stein

1 Comments



Our character for today is 
Anna Strong from the Anna Strong Chronicles by Jeanne C. Stein
…can I do this? Can I continue, at least for a while, 
to live as both mortal and vampire?
Why not? My entire relationship to humans is based on lies.
This will be just one more.”



Name:  Anna Strong
Occupation: Day Job/ Bounty Hunter (Human) As a Vampire, I’m the Chosen One 
Species: Vampire
Speaks: Vampire’s can communicate telepathically regardless of their native language.
Age: 30 –when I was turned. Will be 30 throughout whatever lifetime I have.
Height: 5’5”
Hair Color: Light Brown
Eyes: Hazel (Human) Yellow cat eyes (Vampire)
Identifying physical marks: Since I don’t have a reflection, it’s only through other people that I have an idea what I look like. I have been compared to my mother. She and I have the same honey-colored hair, are the same height; both of us are small-boned and slender. Living on a liquid protein diet, however, has honed my physique to lean muscle.


Day or Night – Day. Luckily vampires have adapted to sunlight.
Single or Taken – Newly married actually
Cat or Dog – Neither, animals don’t react well to vampires
Gun or Knife – Neither, as a vamp, I don’t need weapons
Upper body or Lower body – Hmmm….
Blond or Dark --Dark
Two legs or Four legs -- Two
Down town or Nature --Both
Love or Sex – Not mutually exclusive, are they?
Bacon and eggs or Pancakes – Type O
Lips or Neck—hello, vampire—what do you think?
Dead or Alive—I’ve known dead “mortals” and vampires more alive than humans.


For those readers who may not know you, please tell them a few tidbits about you, Anna? 
My name is Anna Strong. I am vampire. I have been a vampire for almost two years. 

What did you do before the story begun?
The same thing I do now. I am partner in a bounty hunting business. It’s lucrative, physical, and non-judgmental. I go after bail skips—whether they are guilty or innocent is not a concern. It was during a fight with a skip who turned out to be vampire that I was turned.  

What is your favorite part/memory?  
With my family when my brother was alive—a long time ago. Now I look forward to a future with a husband and step-son…a real family of my own. Something as a vampire, I never thought I could have. 

If you and your love would go on a date, where would it be and why?
We don’t need to date. We have enough excitement in our lives. Being alone with him is the best thing we can do.

What are your favorite weapons?
Natural endowments—super speed and strength.

What/who would you never want to come across again?
Avery—the vampire who was my “mentor” in the beginning but turned out to be my worst enemy. What made it so horrible was that I thought I loved him. He betrayed me.

If you could have a re-match. With who would that be?
I’ve never yet been beaten in a fight.

How do you see your future?
More positive now that I have a family.



Book Description: Anna Strong—kick-ass bounty hunter and vampire—has made some enemies in her time. But it’s not just her old foes she should be worried about… 

Anna’s shape-shifting friend, Culebra, finally opens up to her about his life before owning Beso de la Muerte, a bar catering to supernatural clientele. As if summoned by the conversation, Culebra’s past stumbles into his bar in the form of an old buddy cashing in on a favor.
Soon Anna, Culebra and her ex, DEA agent Max, find themselves deep in Mexico, dealing with drug cartel infighting, old vendettas, and missing girls. Mexico may just prove to be Anna’s best match yet…
