Author Spotlight – Anna Hackett
My name’s Anna Hackett and I’m passionate about action romance. I love stories that combine the thrill of falling in love with the excitement of action, danger and adventure. Stories like those in The Alliance books (by a certain sci-fi romance author we all know!), and Ruby Lionsdrake’s Mandrake Series, Nalini Singh’s Psy-Changeling series, and anything by Linnea Sinclair.
I’m a big reader. I was a reader long before I was a writer. It was my love of reading action-packed romance that inspired me to start writing it…and science fiction romance lets me find that perfect blend of action and romance, along with a cool world, hunky heroes and smart heroines.
I was inspired to write my first science fiction romance series because I wanted to write an Indiana Jones-in-space adventure. The idea took hold and wouldn’t let me go. The Phoenix Adventures was the result—adventures of some treasure-hunting brothers searching for relics from a now-destroyed Earth. And it went on to win a SFR Galaxy Award for Most Fun New Series!
It’s always a challenge to get the right balance of action and romance. No matter how many cool action scenes, fight sequences and awesome narrow escapes I dream up, my priority is to always give my readers a satisfying romance. For me, the best adventure is watching two strong characters fall in love.
Right now, I’m busy working on my newest series, Hell Squad. I’ve been having a blast writing these books. This is an alien invasion sci-fi romance series based on a tough team of commandos fighting for humanity’s survival. The heroes are sexy alphas and their smart heroines are also doing their bit to help save the world.
