Before & After: C.C. Hunter (& Giveaway!)

C.C. Hunter grew up in Alabama, where she caught lightning bugs, ran barefoot, and regularly rescued potential princes, in the form of Alabama bullfrogs, from her brothers. Today, she's still fascinated with lightning bugs, mostly wears shoes, but has turned her focus to rescuing mammals. She now lives in Texas with her four rescued cats, one dog, and a prince of a husband, who for the record, is so not a frog. When she's not writing, she's reading, spending time with her family, or is shooting things-with a camera, not a gun.

C.C. Hunter is a pseudonym. Her real name is Christie Craig and she also writes humorous romantic suspense romance novels for Grand Central. www.christie-craig.com

C.C. would love to hear from you. Because of deadlines, it may take her a day or so to get back with you, but she will reply. cc@cchunterbooks.com

Well, I’m pretty much like Kylie Galen, my character in Born at Midnight, when she ends up at Shadow Falls and learns it’s a camp full of vampires, werewolves, shape-shifters, witches and faes. By that, I mean I’m in an emotional tailspin—Nervous I might not live through this and scared that everyone won’t like me. Basically, I really, really just want things to go well.

This isn’t my first book-release rodeo. I write humorous romantic suspense novels under my real name, but this is my first young adult novel. It’s also my first book for St. Martin’s Griffin, and my first book under my pen name C.C. Hunter. So, it feels like the first time. And like first kisses, first dates and first job interviews, first time events are scary.



Wow! I'm so excited. I love getting all the reader mail where they tell me how much they enjoyed my story. I love signing books. I just left the Romantic Times Convention where we had a huge teen party and it was amazing. I got to talk to lots of readers and bloggers who had already read Born at Midnight and I loved every moment of it. Lots of readers stopped by and visited and it was just so good to meet and greet my audience.

Thanks again, Missy, for inviting me. I hope everyone enjoys my book.

I just got my copy signed on Saturday at the RT event. It was great to meet C.C. and get a few tiny spoilers about the Lucas vs Derek debate. :)
