Tour Kick Off - Meet and Greet - Blind Allegiance by Violetta Rand



Historical Romance
Date Published: 6/25/2013

It’s a risk of a lifetime loving a man you’re supposed to hate…
Betrayed by a brother she hardly trusted before the bloodthirsty Viking, Jarl Randvior Sigurdsson, attacks her home, Noelle Sinclair is conveniently bartered as a means to save her cowardly sibling’s skin. Forced to leave her homeland and accompany the petulant Viking to the untamed wilderness of central Norway, Noelle is ever-aware of the burgeoning dangers around her—including her weakening resolve to resist Randvior.
Should Noelle surrender to his resplendent charms and seduction, or fight with every ounce of strength she possesses to get home?

#1 – Do You See Writing as a Career?

I see it as a passion that has fortunately turned into a career opportunity I hope to have for the rest of my life.

#2 – What was the Hardest Part of Your Writing Process?

Queries. Submissions. Waiting for that acceptance letter.

#3 – Did you have any One Person Who Helped You Out with Your Writing Outside of  Your Family?

My critique partner and dearest friend, Meredith Mix, was a constant during my adventures writing Blind Allegiance. What a lifeline!

#4 – What is next for your writing?

I continue to write installments for the Blind Series. Book 2, Blind Mercy, will be out this fall. I’m also working on my first contemporary, possibly in New Adult.

#5 – Do you have an addiction to reading as well as writing? If so, what are you currently reading?

Yes, I’m addicted to both. I’m currently reading Empire of the Summer Moon (nonfiction) and Desire Wear Diamonds.

Violetta has been "in love" with writing since childhood.
