Jennifer Rardin
I’m a Midwestern girl who's into weirdness like vampires and assassins. Luckily my publishers thought putting those two types together sounded like a plan. And thus we have the Jaz Parks series--five books and counting! My fans are the best!

I didn't actually think you pulled the nos out of the air, (sorry if it appeared like criticism) I just thought that you mistakenly placed a different country (I'm just happy that there was my country there). wow... That must be lots of side trips, we're actually pretty close to Australia!... although I might be wrong too... I should doublecheck

apparently other than the connecting flight from Sydney, there's also the connecting flight from singapre that adds hours. Next time they should just fly via company jet. Loads off the airplane time.

I’ve tried to introduce the rules to Jaz & Vayl’s world to you bit by bit as the series progresses, partly because it’s boring to sit through a lecture, even if the subject happens to be vampires. And...

Have to go with the depends on the relationship crowd. Damon (Vampire Diaries) is evil, pure and simple. For him it's predation. Vayl and Jaz are building a relationship. If memory serves, the first time she offered it was to save him, so that would be the most basic kind of gifting; after that I see it as more sexual.

Jennifer Rardin is loving the new contest at The Book Whisperer. In order to enter for your chance to win a copy of "Bite Marks," you need to link to or send a picture of the guy who looks most like your personal image of Vayl. Wowsa! Can't wait for those pix to come flying in! Contest runs through Thanksgiving.

Welcome, I am obviously addicted to books. As a happily married mother of two I love every minute that I can steal away for my books. I welcome all book recommendations and suggestions.

I haven't really gotten past Vayl's face to figure out how great his body is...and I have no clue how tall/heavy Orlando is!

We had to beat them off with those glowstix they pass out at night parades, Jeri. It was pretty.

Jennifer Rardin is starting book eight in the Jaz Parks series today. Which means a lot of thinking about plot development--while cleaning the house!

I have Bite Marks but I promised myself I would finish my current book before I started it. It's so tempting sitting there on my shelf. Do we really have to wait a whole year before #7 !!!! I don't think I will be able to survive the wait!

Laura I did the same thing. Started Bite Marks yesterday (so far, really good, LOL). Don't know how I am going to make it till the next, LOL.

The only way the official release of a Jaz Parks adventure could be more fun would be if Bite Marks literally ripped out of a trade paperback sized coffin, did a back flip, and shot an arrow out of the cover into an evil vampire...

just got a copy yesterday! I haven't finished reading yet, but I just jumped up and down becuase of the ownership of an island in the Philippines. (I really love it when authors put my country in somewhere in their books, even though nothing happens there.) Thanks a bunch!

Jennifer, I mentioned the wrong book at BBB. However, I lent out my copies so I am searching all over to find the name of the character I was so fascinated by... the mysterious man Jaz meets on the street when she sneaks out to patrol at night. He's not human and had this freaky story and I thought, "More! More!"
Honestly, my memory isn't that horrible, I just read waaay too many books waaaay too quickly!
Thanks for the chat today!

I was thinking about our psychic the other day, because she's kinda hard for me to wrap my mind around. Partly it's the age issue, and partly it's the touchy-visiony deal she's got going, both of which are tough for me to relate to. But I love her, so I try...

She is Beyonce with just one more piece of "something" on. Maybe neon fur stole, maybe kickin' shoes, something that just says "Cassandra"--I think it is because she has lived SOOO long and has dealt with so much crap, yet she's got such a wonderful, loving and giving personality, very mother-earthish, very zen--she can get away with stuff because she's just HER. Know what I mean?

I have found that I try to avoid eating when I'm reading your books Jennifer ;) I think it happened once when I was eating spaghetti and reading a particularly gruesome scene, perhaps at the Vampire place, when the werewolf and the other thing were fighting? A little too descriptive to eat at the same time with :)

Jennifer Rardin is breaking in my book-sigining shoes today. They look so witchy that I feel compelled to brew up some sort of bubbly green potion. But I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to eye of newt.

Jennifer Rardin just printed out "Bitten in Two" (book 7). I do believe it's heavy enough to use as an effective club. May bind it and keep it by the back door...just in case!

I just polished off 'Bite Marks' in 2 days, one of which I wasn't here most of, so you need to write longer books please :)

YIKES! The release date was listed as October 29th on Amazon so I didn't go to to the bookstore. I could've had the book read by now. Oh well, I'll get it tomorrow, so at least I have something to look forward to. I can't wait! Squeeeeee!
