What do you find attractive in a hero?I have to admit it. I'm a sucker for alphas and intelligence. Not the caveman "You Jane, me Alpha." type. But the strong silent type.
What do you look for in a heroine?
Kick assitude. Love strong heroine, who can keep up with the hero and can ride to the hero's rescue when needed.
Who was the last author whose writing wowed you?
Wow, I have so many. I've been lucky to be able to read quite a few authors' works in progress. I got to read Gwen Hayes upcoming YA which was pretty fantastic and of course my critique partner Jackie Barbosa. Anything she writes wows me.
What drives your books? Is it the hero, the heroine, the conflict?
It's all three really. Because the heroine and hero drive each other and the conflict, external or internal drive them.
Thanks for stopping by, Emma! Today one lucky commenter will win a Borders Gift Certificate. Good luck!

Hi Emma!!! I LOVE kick ass heroines!!
Nice interview Vivi & Emma!
Good interview. Haven't read any of Emma's books yet, but like the sounds of this newest one.
Heroines with attitude are my heroin.
Is that a really bad pun or did I make you spit coffee?
Come on, don't tell me you guys don't think that every time you type "heroine". Really, it's just me? Huh.

Loved the cover-nice interview-short and to the point.
Great cover for Make Me Remember and I agree...I'm more drawn to an alpha that is intelligent than to one who acts like a caveman. I also like a heroine who can keep up with the hero and rescue him if she needs to.
Thanks for blogging with us! I love the cover!
Nice interview.I agree with the others that is a great cover
Just went to your site an signed up for the newsletter. From what I've read about Make Me Remember sounds good and it's nice to know that the characters will be strong and interesting too.
Hi Emma,
Love your hero description, strong and silent, with hidden depths you can't wait to uncover. Like my heroes (and heroines) with a sense of humor too. You can tell alot about a person by what makes them smile or laugh.
