Can't wait to read the next one!!

~Tina~ Thanks for the invite!
LOVED this book/series.

Nick is a awesome character. He and Lucy are really cute together, did he start to notice his feeling for her during his blood change?

I've noticed that your books are coming out fast, which I'm trilled about!! Are the books linked together to make as one, or should we expect individual stories but with the same main characters involved?
Will we be seeing more Sloange/Kieran Lucy/Nick in future books? (please say yes)
Can't wait to discuss the next book!! This is an exciting series!

Hi everyone, thanks for joining the converastion~ please feel free to pass the invite along if you know someone who might be interested!

Tina asked:

Thanks!
Yes, Nicholas knew before his change but it took that kind of drastic event to make him able to admit it to himself.

Tina asked:
Are the books linked together to make as one, or should we expect individual stories but with the same main characters involved?

The story arc of The Drake Chronicles will always involve Solange and Lucy so they are definitely in every book, but each new installment deals with a different Drake brother and another part of their world. This way I get to play with all the different tribes and get to know everyone a little better...and so do you!

Tina asked:
Will we be seeing more Sloange/Kieran Lucy/Nick in future books?

Definitely! Solange's life gets even more complicated...and where Solange goes Lucy goes and where Lucy goes Nicholas goes...


message 8: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ Alyxandra thanks so much for answering my questions! I can't wait to discuss the next book!! I'm beyond thrilled with how these books are looking. The 7 brothers and Solange have such a fun-family-chemistry that I can't help but love and I can't get enough of the steamy sparks that are flying from Sloange/Kieran Lucy/Nick, and we're only on book ONE:)
Thanks again!

Leah (leannag) | 5 comments The 2 girls look really similar!! But I don't know... I think Lucy is good though!!
And I have to say.. Wouldn't Alex Pettyfer look good as any hot lead guy??
My friends and I love him :)
The guy you put as Kieran looks really familiar... What is he in??


message 12: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ Well the girls both have dark hair in the book. Lucy is shorter though, but still, I was more or less going for the faces.
Alex pretty much can do any hot lead guy, but not all;) He's my Kieran.
As for Nick? No freaken clue who the actor/model is butI wish I did. This is mostly everyone's standard for Jace Wayland (TMI), but he's my Nick;) which is my favorite character. I got another guy for my Jace:)

He is from Britain and he has been in several movies...he has been in Alex Rider, Wild Child, and another couple. Anyways i agree he is super sexy =)

Very cool! Thanks for letting me know. Yes, he's delicious eye candy that I could stare at forever:)
Why are most hot guys from Britain? LOL I need to move there, oh, wait, crap, I'm married:P

hahahaha i totally agree!! they are either from britain or they are gay! (example: Vin Diesal.)
and YOU may be married but there is still hope for me! hahaha im kidding, but if by some miracle i meet him on the street one day (unlikely) i will tell him about this little convo and hope he finds it as great as i do, then i will stop drooling and get a picture!
bahaha,
=)


message 16: by ~Tina~ (last edited Mar 24, 2010 12:22PM) (new)

~Tina~ One can dream ~sigh~
LOL When you meet him be sure to wipe the drool off your face before asking for that pic:)
At least, that's what I plan to do when I meet Rob;) HA!


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

OHMIGOSH! if i met Rob i would probably have a stroke, the thing is i only live a few hours away from vancouver so its almost possible for me to one day see him, i think i would die of pure bliss though, it would probably be a little traumatic for some people..hahahaha =D


message 18: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ Lucky! I'm like 12hours away from Vancouver, if I lived there I would be stalking the movie site. Adore that man!


message 19: by Leah (new)

Leah (leannag) | 5 comments Really?? My friends and I don't like him really... we drool over Alex P though... and fictional characters... Though none of my friends have read my love lies bleeding! Probably because my school library doesn't have it and none of them live near me, so we don't have the same public library, which is where I got my copy from :)

message 22: by ~Tina~ (last edited Mar 25, 2010 09:16AM) (new)

~Tina~ I have to many book crushes, but these guys make the list;

Edward-Twilight, Jace-The Mortal Instruments, Seth- Wicked lovely, Wes-The Pace, Dimka/Christian-Vampire Academy, Nick-Hearts at Stake, Shane/Michel/Myrnin- Morganville Vampires, Patch-Hush Hush, and Lucas-Evernight.

I probably have more, but these guys are my babies:)


message 23: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ Dark vampire princess "I’ve heard Wicked Lovely is fantastic…true?

Those books were pretty great, but to be truthful, I was in it for Seth and Seth alone. Wicked Lovely was my favorite. Ink Exchange didn't have Seth in it and then he was just different in Fragile Eternity. These are dark books and while I did enjoy them, nothing compared to the first.
You should give it a try, there intense reads:)


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

i totally agree with Alyx, i could go for John Keats anyday especially after watching The Bright Star!! oh and yes, i COMPLETLEY agree Tina, Rob is the ulttimate sexy...may i also suggest you google some pictures of Gaspard Ulliel...also very sexy!! he is a french actor ..he played hannibal lector in the newest hannibal movie...hannibal rising i think it was called? anyways yes, sexy fictional characters are the juice for my thirsty eyes, =)


message 25: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ ^^ Totally agree with you on Ulliel! I have a goodreads friend on here who LOVES Gaspard Ulliel!! HA! He's delicious and I would have to agree with her that he's the perfect Dimka(VA)
But at last, my heart belongs to the great Rob Pattz <3 yummmmmmy!

To add to the list:
Jonathon (and George) - The Song of the Lioness
Sam - Shiver
Teddy/ Henry - The Luxe
Josh/ Dash - Private

Thats just a few. My friends and I made a 2 page list. I forgot where I put it though...
AND MY FRIENDS LOVE GASPARD!
I wonder how so many people know about him...

Also Sunny-Wondrous strange :)


message 28: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ Alyxandra, I gotta know and you may or may not be able to tell me, but I still have to ask....

Will Nick ever turn Lucy into a Vampire so he can keep her?


message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

OH MY GOSH alyx i agree with you on the Luxe guys they are so sexy sounding =D

Tina...can't answer that, but i will say that i think it's cruel to freeze someone at 16 yrs old, lol.
so the real question is....am i that cruel?
and which would be crueler, changing her or not changing her...?

im going to say thats only a question she can answer because thats so personal its not even funny. If the person doesnt really have a family outside the vampire world, changing her would just be a plus, but if she is having to leave a family behind, then you have to start weighing the pro's and con's, but i would really like to see her get changed, only because it would be more interesting to see what she is like as a vampire =)

True enough, but when you think about it, Solange and her family are forever young? So why not Lucy? She is apart of the family anyways. If she wasn't with Nick I could see her moving on but she'd fight it tooth and nail, cause that's just how Lucy is.
I would like to see her be changed, maybe not now but hopefully there will be PLENTY of these books where maybe it could happen later.
All I know is that I love Lucy and Nick together and can't bare to think of them apart:)


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

im with you there Tina, Nick and Lucy together is perfect for this book...but if lucy does get turned...who would turn her? Solange? Nick? One of the older vamps?


message 34: by ~Tina~ (new)

~Tina~ I'd like it to be Nick. Only cause Lucy was the one who got him through the blood change, so it would be great if he returned the favor. But this is just me thinking out loud. What ever happens, happens, I just want them together LOL


message 35: by [deleted user] (new)

AGREED!!! but wait, what if se got turned by accident, by one of the bad vampires, as a sort of revenge for the 'queen' dying and solange getting her place? that would be a twist......


message 36: by ~Tina~ (last edited Mar 30, 2010 05:12AM) (new)

~Tina~ That would be a twist. I don't think it's ever mentioned in Heart of Stake what happens to a human if she gets bitten. If bitten, do they turn? Does she have to consume the Vampire's blood? If that's the case, and Lucy is bitten by a a bad Vamp, then Nick can save her? Or turn her himself:)
HA! I love these books!


message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

OOOO i never even thought about that!!! i always just automatically assume once your bitten, its done. Props to Dracula for that, well i suppose Nick could save he BY turning her himself...WOWWOWOWOWO i love these books tooooooo!!!!!!!
