Q&A
I am so glad you could join us here at Romance Junkies. To start, will you please tell us a little bit about your current project?
Absolutely and thank you for having me! FOLLOW ME is the first book in my new Corrupted Hearts Series. It features an unusual heroine named China Mack, who’s probably best described as one part Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory, one part Dr. Temperence Brennan from Bones, and one part Sydney Bristow from Alias. She’s awkward, socially inept, obsessed with her various fandoms (Star Wars, Supernatural, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, etc.), inflexible when it comes to her daily ritual and schedules…and a brilliant computer genius at the age of twenty-four.
When was the moment that you knew you had to be a writer?
I don’t think I knew I had to be a writer, it was more of “OMG! I get to be a writer!” lol I HAD to write my first series, the Kathleen Turner Series, because I had to write a love triangle the way I wanted to read it. With the success of that series came the incredible opportunity to become a writer full time and I’ve been so very blessed and grateful for that.
Who gave you the one piece of writing advice that sticks with you to this day?
When I was starting my second series and having doubts if I could do better than the Kathleen Turner Series, Jennifer Armentrout told me, “You can’t think like that. You have to think that you haven’t yet written your best book.” I put that into a wall art script and affixed it to my office wall so I see it every day.
Describe the “perfect” hero. What about the “perfect” hero for you?
The perfect hero isn’t perfect—he’s just perfect for the heroine. I often use two heroes or a hero and anti-hero in my series because I love to explore how relationships change and how one man’s flaws could be the perfect counterpoint to the other’s strengths and how does the heroine choose? My fondness for love triangles inevitably leads to complications in the romance, but there’s always a Happily Ever After.
What are some of your favorite pastimes? Do you have any hobbies or collections?
Besides reading? Lol I love to cook and try new recipes. Spending time with girlfriends is always high on my list of fun things to do. As for collections, yes, I collect refrigerator magnets from places. People who know me often bring me magnets when they travel and to date I have upwards of two hundred magnets (not all of which fit on my fridge).
What has been your biggest adventure to date?
I had a signing in Edinburgh, Scotland last summer and I have to say that traveling there and to the Highlands was definitely one of the highlights of my life. I fell in love with Edinburgh and Scotland and hope to go back someday.
How do you describe yourself? How would your family and friends describe you?
I’m a hard worker, empathetic and sensitive to a fault, trust too easily, and have a guilt complex. My friends and family would probably say I’m creative and outgoing, trustworthy and nurturing.
What project are you working on next?
I’m working on continuing the Corrupted Hearts Series with book three. BREAK ME, book two, will be coming from Montlake Romance in April, 2017.

Brilliant, quirky twenty-three-year-old China Mack is totally satisfied with her carefully ordered, data-driven life. A computer prodigy who landed a coveted programming job at the cutting-edge tech company Cysnet before even graduating from MIT, China is happiest when following her routine: shower before coffee, pizza only on Mondays, bedtime at ten thirty sharp.
But then things start to get a little…unpredictable.
First Jackson Cooper—Cysnet’s rich, gorgeous, genius CEO—assigns China to a dangerous and highly classified project for a government defense contractor. Her sixteen-year-old runaway niece suddenly arrives in town, begging to move in with China. And then there’s her sexy but oddly unsettling new neighbor, Clark…
Quickly the Cysnet assignment becomes disconcerting—and then downright scary—as key staffers turn up dead. China suspects she’s being followed and isn’t sure whom she can trust. For the first time ever, she’ll have to follow her instincts, rather than logic, if she’s going to survive.
Tiffany Snow was born in St. Charles, Missouri, where she developed a fondness for trivia games, the music of Elvis Presley, and romance novels. After earning two bachelor’s degrees—one in social studies education and the other in history—she went on to work in the information technology field. Now, the author of the popular Kathleen Turner Series writes full-time, when she’s not quoting When Harry Met Sally or dancing along to her favorite ’80s hair band. She resides in the Midwest with her husband of eighteen years and their two daughters.
