Unlikely: A Paranormal Romance (G.R.I.T.S., Love & The Paranormal) by Jan Mau Hill

 


Are you ready for some Hallown reads? 

If so, check out  Jan Mau Hillfabulous paranormal romance series, G.R.I.T.S., Love & The Paranormal.



In Unlikely, Lexi releases The Hierophant and

receives the power of persuasion. That creates an interesting complication when she uses her new ability on Clint, the Werewolf Alpha who previously rejected her. What interested you about exploring the question of whether feelings are genuine when supernatural influence is involved?

All of my characters are genuinely good people who occasionally wrestle with their inner demons. Temptation makes great storytelling, whether you reject it or succumb. I started with the Hierophant, which is not card zero in the major arcana so I wouldn’t be tied to rolling out stories aligned with the order of the tarot deck. This card is also the messenger and the reason the portal between the powers-that-be and humanity is opened.


Ungainly introduces six-foot-two Werewolf
Gwendolyn Tousignant, who has known for years whom she considers her mate—even if Hank hasn't quite caught up! What did you enjoy most about writing Gwen and turning the usual romantic transformation idea on its head through The Empress card?

Gwen is the bff of Lexi from book one. She’s shy and introverted- being 6’ 2’ for a woman can be stygmatizing. She is soooo worthy of love and it was heartbreaking to see her year after year get but into the friend zone by Hank. The empress gives her the power of seduction- it made for some pretty hilarious events.


Amanda's story in Unhealed has a noticeably more emotional starting point. She returns to her supernatural community carrying both physical and emotional scars from an abusive relationship. How did you approach balancing Amanda's vulnerability and recovery with the romance, paranormal elements and mystery surrounding her?

Amanda had been hiding out with Lexi, as her pet cat for a few years. By the end of book one, she’s finally managed the courage to come back to and stay (mostly) in human form. She’s far stronger than she believes herself to be, the harbinger she gets is Judgment which helps her battle her PTSD. At the end we see her get a well deserved HEA.


If you enjoy paranormal romance, witches, werewolves, magical mishaps, strong friendships and love stories with plenty of personality, then G.R.I.T.S., Love & The Paranormal is certainly a series worth discovering.

Jan Mau Hill



In her mind, Jan is a modern-day Austen protagonist.

As a child, she created elaborate stories involving a pretend cattle ranch guarded by vegetarian dinosaurs and went on adventures with her stuffed teddy bear, creatively named Ted.

After getting out of college in four years (an astounding feat) she began a career in advertising and marketing. Extensive reading during work travel rekindled her imagination and her Rock, Paper, Scissors series was born. These YA Urban Fantasy books are full of action, snark and a hint of romance.

Now she writes full-time in her hometown of New Orleans. The city is its own character in her 22 book paranormal romance series. Those feature a variety of Supernatural Main Characters in search of love. An enchanted deck of tarot cards adds a unique twist to the interwoven storylines of her G.R.I.T.S. books.

Jan Mau Hill writes fast-paced books featuring clever and bold heroines. If that sounds interesting, she’s the author for you.
