Interview with Nicole Snow, Author of The Darkest Chase (Dark Hearts of Redhaven Book 3)
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Darkest Chase (Dark Hearts of Redhaven Book 3)?
The Darkest Chase is a small-town grumpy sunshine romance with the lights turned down. Think of it like entering concert or a theater. I’ve always loved to throw together characters who are light and shadow, and that’s definitely Talia Grey and Micah Ainsley. She’s a walking sunbeam. He’s a human storm. She’s a sheltered girl. He’s had his soul split apart by life. Together, their opposite polarities find a new balance with all of the healing, heart, and emotion I love to infuse into a story.
What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
I should say romance, and it’s at the top of my list, but I also read a lot of pure mysteries and thrillers. I read a decent amount of non-fiction lately as well, history and biographies are my go-to. I think it’s good for authors to mix it up and expand their own reading tastes beyond their genre, and I’ve always done that by habit.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
I’ve had the Riley Thorn books by Lucy Score on my reading list for some time. I saw she released a new one recently, so I think it’s finally time to dive in. I’m also a fan of Brittney Sahin’s work and her whole Falcon Falls Series rocks.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
Easy. When the tension between Micah and Talia boils over and their true feelings erupt. It’s steamy, emotional, and kind of dark when it comes to the loving they get up to. It’s a refreshing change from my usual sultry scenes and it just oozes feelings.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
It’s never too late to embrace yourself, embrace love, and transcend old wounds. That’s the short, simple message of this book, and even if it’s pure fiction I think it’s also true to life.
