Shiloh Walker | Things that go bump in the night...
October 25, 2011
It’s that time of year...October is here, nights are cool, almost time for trick
or treating. The leaves are turning. Something about this time of year makes
me want to check out haunted houses, scary movies, spooky books. I love a good thrill. I love it when something gets my heart to pounding...it
doesn’t matter if it’s one of those fake haunted houses where you just
know they are going to jump out at you with a knife, or if it’s a walk
through a house that just may really be haunted. Scary movies, scary books...give me a good scare...a safe one, and I’m happy. That’s the appeal of romantic suspense for me—the edgier, the better. If You
Hear Her is the first book in my romantic suspense trilogy...followed
by
If You See Her and If You
Know Her, releasing this winter. While I’ve written several romantic suspense books before, this is my first
trilogy and I was able to go a little deeper, took it a little darker...got to
play with all those things that go bump in the night. And it all started with a scream...the heroine is awakened one night when she
hears somebody screaming for help. Lena lives out in the country, several miles
away from anybody else and she’s the only one who hears these screams. For a
little while, she’s not even sure if anybody else believes her. Except for Ezra...the hero. Everything starts to change, though, when a body is found and things get dicey
fast. If you’d like to read some of the story, I’ve got a nice
long excerpt on my site and you can read about the other two books in the Ash Trilogy as
well, plus check out the wallpapers for the series and the
contest that’s going on for the next couple of weeks.

Being from Kentucky I just love books that are set in my home state. Series are my favorite to read too. So I cannot wait to read these. (Leisa Prater 11:52am October 25, 2011)
Halloween is my favorite holiday. I still go to haunted houses, watch scary movies, decorate like a madman, and of course dress up. I get a strange thrill from jumping out of my skin and scaring my friends. I love it when a book can give me that same thrill. Can't wait to read yours. (Carla Carlson 12:02pm October 25, 2011)
I was born in Kentucky, Leisa! I love the area... I'm still pretty local ;)
Carla, I love halloween, too... (Shiloh Walker 12:17pm October 25, 2011)
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, too. I can't wait to read your book after reading the excerpts! It sounds fascinating! And a must read. (Debra Wright 12:39pm October 25, 2011)
Happy Release Day, Shiloh. Can't wait to read your new trilogy. (Jane Cheung 1:06pm October 25, 2011)
I watched a group of Zombies dancing on Saturday and then they went biking around the block a few times. It stopped traffic and was well-organized. Nobody screamed even though the make-up was creepy. Your trilogy sounds like it has a lot of action and is tempting. (Alyson Widen 2:32pm October 25, 2011)
@ Alyson... that sounds like so much fun... lol (Shiloh Walker 3:26pm October 25, 2011)
I normally don't go in for scary things - not since I watched Frankenstein when I was a little girl with my older Sister. I was up past my bedtime, and ended up having nightmares afterwards. Now that I'm older, I can appreciate the artistic genius of the movie. Anyway, since you wrote these heart-pounding books, I have no choice but to give them a shot. I know I won't be disappointed!! If I have nightmares, I'm sure they'll go away after a couple of days anyways. :) (Peggy Roberson 8:34pm October 25, 2011)
Halloween is my second best holiday, but Christmas is my first!!!!!!!!! Love them all!!! (Joanne Bozik 2:47pm October 27, 2011)
I love things that go bump in the night. I love doing haunted houses. The only thing is that no one should touch me. Happened once and oh boy I was so freaked out and the kid that touched me ended up not being to happy either. One of those walls that come alive, he grabbed my leg. This was back in the '80's. No more Touching. LOL (Jo Anne Benware 4:09pm October 28, 2011)
