February 11, 2022

1–What is the title of your latest release?

The Dawn of Peace

The Dawn of Peace by Rebecca Hefner

2–What’s the “elevator pitch” for your new book?

Vampyre/Slayer enemies to lovers with only one bed!

3–How did you decide where your book was going to take place?

This book is the prequel to my Etherya’s Earth series and takes place in Etherya’s world

4–Would you hang out with your heroine in real life?

Absolutely. Kilani is so strong and chooses to live her truth rather than a life others want to choose for her.

5–What are three words that describe your hero?

Strong, compassionate, sexy

6–What’s something you learned while writing this book?

I always wanted to write a prequel for this series and it reminded me how much I love writing in this world.

7–Do you edit as you draft or wait until you are totally done?

I edit as I draft.

8–What’s your favorite foodie indulgence?

Sushi. Anytime, anywhere. I’m lucky to live right outside NYC where they have fantastic sushi available.

9–Describe your writing space/office!

As an author in my mid-forties, I need lots of comfort and heating pads. My favorite writing chair is my old recliner with two heating pads I’ve strapped onto the back.

10–Who is an author you admire?

I love Nora Roberts as we all do. Her books were such a big influence on me and she’s such an inspiration.

11–Is there a book that changed your life?

Cosmos by Carl Sagan. It started my love of science which I still carry today. I’m a huge science dork and this is seen in all of my books (especially the Prevent the Past series which is a sci-fi time travel romance series!).

12–Tell us about when you got “the call.” (when you found out your book was going to be published)

I saved up money for years in my corporate job to be able to fund my indie author career. I finally published my first book, The End of Hatred, in November of 2018 and now I have over 20 books published (under both of my author names combined—I also write steamy contemporary romance under Ayla Asher).

13–What’s your favorite genre to read?

Romance but I also love sci-fi and non-fiction. I’ll read anything! I also love audiobooks and make all of my books into audiobooks.

14–What’s your favorite movie?

When Harry Met Sally

15–What is your favorite season?

Spring

16–How do you like to celebrate your birthday?

I love day drinking so usually at a winery with a pizza oven so I can get tipsy and then pass out by 9pm. Ha!

17–What’s a recent tv show/movie/book/podcast you highly recommend?

Dark on Netflix. It’s a twisty time travel show that blew my mind. Can’t recommend it enough.

18–What’s your favorite type of cuisine?

I really like food so that’s tough. Thai, Italian, Mediterranean…I’ll eat anything!

19–What do you do when you have free time?

I love karaoke, wine tastings and traveling.

20–What can readers expect from you next?

I’m currently producing some audiobooks and redesigning all the covers for my Etherya’s Earth series. Once those projects are completed, I hope to release several more books this year under Rebecca Hefner and Ayla Asher!

Two immortals from warring species save each other’s lives as the conflict rages on.
Alrec, the hulking Vampyre warrior, spares her first.
Years later, Kilani, the fierce, uncompromising Slayer, returns the favor.

And, of course, there’s only one bed…
