We've had the honor of reading and reviewing your latest book, Year of the Wolf, a urban/epic fantasy featuring something we'd been searching for since we started Twinja Book Reviews, A LATINA MAIN PROTAGONIST. We've featured her before, but for those of you just tuning in, without further adue, we'd like to introduce Heather Heffner!
1.Would you please share with us a synopsis of your book and what inspired your kick ass heroine named Citlali.

Absolutely! “Citlalli Alvarez thought the hardest thing about adjusting to her new life in Seoul, South Korea would be the food. But when her half-sister is kidnapped for sinister purposes, Citlalli gets entangled with an ancient Vampyre Queen, her seven deadly and beautiful sons, and a dangerous spirit world. Citlalli has never been one to shy away from a fight, but in order to rescue her sister, she must face an unimaginable price that could put her very soul at stake.”
Year of the Wolf is the first book in the urban/epic fantasy Changeling Sisters Series, inspired by my time as a Foreign English teacher near Seoul, South Korea. Citlalli’s world is full of vampyres tweaked by a popular Korean myth, shape-shifters including wolves and nagas, a spirit world in need of help, hungry ghosts, and of course, a devious nine-tailed fox. Citlalli loves her family as much as she fights with them, and heaven help the enemies who threaten that bond. Her name, the Aztec word for “star,” actually inspired her character.
