Interview With V. V. Strange

1) Tell us about your book

It’s Dragon Wrath, book 1 in the Other Series. I know I should not say this, but come on. This book is one of the favorites that I wrote. There’s just something about the people in it, so much passion and feelings and hardship, I can’t help but loving them. And of course, I have a major crush on every male in there.

2)What themes does your book explore?

Mainly justice. Shifters are kept as second-class citizens, are forbitten to go to school after 12 grade, marry a Pure (non-shifter), can’t own property. They can’t be imprisoned for only existing, but they can’t achieve much either. So, it’s about them, starting to fight to access that, and being able to build the life they want, not only the crumbles of what they allow them to get.

3) Tell us something unusual about your main character?

Ronan is a dragon, so there’s that for unusual. He’s also a very high-end civil right lawyer. He couldn’t have gone to college, let alone passing the bar. He managed to get where he is by hiding, which means a steely self-control, a good dose of paranoia, and more than a dash of denying his needs as an Other. Of course his carefully built world crushes down, but you have to read the story to know the details.

4) Is this a standalone book or a series?

It’s a series. The prequel of it, Swan Fury, is about the couple that started this revolution and it’s available only if you sign up to my newsletter.

5) What is next for you?

I just started the first book of a contemporary suspense Series, Heartstrings and Shadow, that follows the lives and tribulations of a country band. Then I have the Angels novella that will start another series of Archangels or angels (I haven’t decided yet) but I want MC, leather, and tattoos, and I’m absolutely excited for that. I’ll stop here because I have plans all the way to 2026 and I feel like it would be too much.

About The Author

Viv writes contemporary suspense as MacKade, and paranormal and fantasy romance as V.V. Strange.
She was born in the Italian countryside in the Langhe region, where the wine is good and Nutella flows, carried by her family's hazelnut farm.
She got out of Law School alive and with an MD in comparative law. Never a lawyer, she will always be a scholar of the law.
She and her husband moved to Norwich, UK, after University. She would spend 6 amazing years there, and it’s where she started dreaming of writing stories for a living.
Florida is when things started getting serious. Kids, a house, and books started to add, and she made it to Amazon's 100 paid books list twice.
In her words, “I write contemporary suspense because I love the adventure, the danger, the mystery of it, and I love to see the leading couple getting out of trouble (that I put them into. Sorry, not sorry). And I write paranormal/fantasy because I love the possibilities. Also, writing new worlds is a fantastic thing to do. Besides all that, I write because I need it.”
So, why would you read whatever she writes?
Because her female leads are never stupid. Might be confused or scared, but never stupid, never needy. And her male leads are good guys. Might be broken and lost, maybe even rude, but they are good.
