Blurb:
Chaos reigns in The Sleepless City, and it’s really beginning to piss Detective Jonas Forge off. He’s got inner demons to battle and a life to build with his new soul mate, Blair Turner. Nothing is going right, and he already feels the universe is conspiring against him when a turn of events he never saw coming flips his world upside down.
Hallucinations grip the town and everyone in it, threatening to tear their precariously built family apart, and the only way forward is to bare all to each other. This means Declan and Blair need to learn to accept one another. Lucas Coate has to move forward without ties to his werewolf pack and live a monogamous life with Declan.
But while Forge and Declan confront horrors from their shared past, Simon learns a terrible truth about vampires—one he couldn’t have imagined in his worst nightmares.

Excerpt:
“What happened?” Blair asked. He turned his head toward the back door. A second later Moose was running to the back of the house.
Jonas strode in, jerked his jacket off, and tossed it down beside Ben’s helmet, muttering as he went. He stopped and faced them. “Those fools have decided I must be head detective.”
Lucas came to a stop behind Jonas, grinning.
“Wait, you’ve been pissed off all day because you got a promotion?” Blair asked.
Ben lunged forward and threw his arms around Jonas’s neck. “Sweet as! We have to celebrate. It’s about time they recognized you like this. I think it’s crappy you haven’t been promoted until now.”
Jonas pulled in a breath and stepped back from Ben. “I thank you, but it’s a fucking disaster.”
“Another of the Council’s tricks,” Declan added.
“They can’t do this, can they?” Simon said and sat down abruptly on the couch. “That’s against the Council rules.”
“What’s wrong with all of you?” Ben turned in a circle, glaring at each of them in turn.
“I can’t be the head detective.” Jonas took a DVD from the shelf under the television and put it in the player. He grabbed the remote control, aimed, and pointed. “This”—he waved at the scene appearing on the TV—”is why I can’t have this job.”
An image of Stewie in relation to some incident that, by the looks of it, had happened a few years ago appeared on the screen. Underneath were the words “Flint, Ohio, Head Detective Stewart Belle,” and Stewie was speaking to a reporter.
“Oh crap,” Blair said. He and Ben stood side by side.
“Yes. Oh crap covers it nicely. The head detective must be a human, has always been a human. You know, someone who can be seen by a camera and is available during the full moon,” Jonas said. “Before Stewie there was some dick by the name of Felton, and before that we had the oh-so-delightful Smyth.”
Ben nudged Blair and waved one hand between Declan and Jonas. “Have you noticed that between the thief and the cop, the cop is the one with the problems with authority?”

About the author:
Elizabeth Noble started telling stories before she actually knew how to write, and her family was very happy when she learned to put words on a page. Those words turned into fan fiction that turned into a genuine love of M/M romance fiction. Being able to share her works with Dreamspinner is really a dream come true. She has a real love for a good mystery complete with murder and twisty plots as well as all things sci-fi, futuristic, and supernatural and a bit of an unnatural interest in a super-volcano in Wyoming.
Elizabeth has three grown children and is now happily owned by an adorable mixed breed canine princess named Rosie, and two cats, Murphy and Yeti. She lives in her native northeast Ohio, the perfect place for gardening, winter and summer sports (go Tribe!). When she’s not writing she’s working as a veterinary nurse, so don’t be surprised to see her men with a pet or three who are a very big part of their lives.
Two of Elizabeth’s books have received Honorable Mentions in the Rainbow Awards.
Today I’m very lucky to be interviewing Elizabeth Noble author of Shifting Chaos.
Hi Elizabeth, thank you for agreeing to this interview. Tell us a little about yourself, your background, and your current book.
Hello, and thank you for hosting me today. I’m an author for Dreamspinner Press and DSP Publications. In addition to writing I’m a veterinary nurse. I’m also a proud single mom of three great now-adult kids. I have one grandson and another due to be released in December! He’s still in the editing/coming soon stage.
Shifting Chaos is the fourth and final book of a series written with Anne Barwell, The Sleepless City. It’s urban/fantasy romance. While the first three books deal with one romantic relationship, in this book the characters are in their established romances. Shifting Chaos has a little bit of all three couples and how these men relate to each other. They’ve become a family and like all families there is a group dynamic alongside that of each couple.
Q: What’s the best line you ever wrote?
A: I don’t know if it’s the best line I’ve ever written but it was the first one to pop into my head when I read the question. This comes from Code Name: Jack Rabbit, which is the first book of Akhkharu Nasaru: The Vampire Guard which is my spin off series from The Sleepless City. It will be released July of 2016 from DSP Publications. You can find more information here: http://elizabeth-noble-thevampireguard.weebly.com/
This is from the thoughts of Lucas Coate. Being in a surveillance van with three vampires wasn’t the fun and excitement one might expect it to be.
Q: Do you listen to music while writing? If so, what kind?
A: Sometimes I listen to music and sometimes I watch TV or a movie. I have wide variety of music from classical to metal so I generally just put the player on shuffle.
Q: If your book were made into a movie, what actors would you like to see star?
A: Jonas Forge = James Murray
Blair Turner = Aaron Ashmoore
Declan = Sasha Roiz
Lucas Coate = Noah Wyle
Ben = Andrew-Lee Potts
Simon = Jason Dohring

Q: What genres do you write in?
A: Scifi, mystersy/suspense, urban fantasy. In romance I write in those sub-genres and well as contemporary romance.
Q: Where and when do you prefer to write?
A: I have an office I often use. In the warmer months I enjoy sitting outside. I’ll pretty much write where my laptop can go and I’m not picky about what time either. Morning is just as good as evening. Because of my day job schedule I tend to write more in the evening because it’s convenient.
