Letting Go
Coming to other online stores in
January 2015.
Hello everyone. First of all,
thank you for having me here today to talk about the final book in my Heavenly
Sins trilogy. It has been a long time in coming, but it is finally available
for those who want to read the conclusion of Tristan, Mac and Alastor’s story.
When I started this series I had
no idea the story was going to be anything other than a short novella. That was
the intention, but my characters had other ideas. They took over completely and
their story became longer and longer until finally it is coming to an end. What
started as a novella became three novels. I am still not entirely sure how that
happened, but that’s a topic for another blog post.
This is my first series/serial
story to finish and I have to admit that I am finding it a little difficult to
let my characters go. Even though I have tied up all the loose ends that need
to be, I keep wondering if perhaps I could revisit them one day in the future.
I wonder if my boys, as I like
to think of them, will have any more trouble sent in their direction, or
whether they will get the life they always wanted. Maybe there is more to be
told. Perhaps another enemy will arise with the intention of separating them,
or maybe one of them will decide they want out of the relationship. There are
countless possibilities – especially when in the paranormal genre, not even
death means a definite end to the story.
But I know I need to stop it and
let these characters go. I am afraid I am just as bad as a reader, but then I
have no choice. If an author I am reading finishes a series, then yes, it is
finished whether I want it to end or not. As a writer I have a little more say
in the matter. Or at least that is what I tell myself.
Yet even as I type this I have
another angel and demon whispering in my ear right now. Actually I have several
demons, angels and mortals pestering me these days. But there are two who are
being quite persistent and who are telling me they want their story to be told.
So there is a chance that at some point over the next couple of years there
will be a fourth Heavenly Sins story from me.
I am making an effort not to
listen to them though. With so many stories in my head, it’s time to let
someone else take the limelight and concentrate on my newly started Mermen
& Magic series.
Maybe it is only me who has
trouble letting go of characters. Somehow, I suspect this isn’t the case and
that there are other writers out there who find it hard to bring an end to a
series.
For those who have not yet met
my angels and demons, the reading order for the series is as follows.
Between Heaven & Hell
Between Good & Evil
Between Life & Death
And at least now they are all
available, no one is going to be left waiting for the next instalment. So if
angels and demons are something you are interested in, please say hello to Mac,
Alastor and Tristan.
Thanks again for having me here
today and I hope everyone is having a happy and safe holiday season.
Blurb:
With one of his lovers
imprisoned in the Underworld, Mac has no choice except to go where most angels
fear to tread.
With Tristan imprisoned in the
Underworld, the ménage is broken. Angels are forbidden to enter the demonic
domain and while Mac has been breaking rules in recent months, he doesn’t have
the power to enter the Underworld.
Alastor is still unsure about
his position in the relationship following recent revelations, but he cannot
walk away when he is the only real link between his two lovers. Splitting his
time between Mac and Tristan, he hopes they can soon find a way to reunite the
two men in his life.
As time moves on, Alastor
realizes he is struggling to satisfy Tristan’s thirst for sex. His lover needs
more than he can give him and craves Mac in his bed.
Mac still believes he can
complete his mission to save his two lovers, but with one of them out of his
reach, it is going to be far from easy.
During their time together they
have made plenty of enemies, including one who would seek to separate them
forever, even if it means biding his time until Alastor and Tristan are at
their most vulnerable, when even the love of an angel can’t save them.
Excerpt:
Lucifer continued to
poke around the room while Tristan did his best to ignore him. Eventually he
stepped into the path of the demon and glared at him. “Are you done?”
“You really
shouldn’t be so rude to me,” Lucifer chided. “I’m here to help you.”
“Help me?” Tristan
shook his head and rolled his eyes. “Help me, he says.”
“Who else is
suitably qualified to guide you through your first days as our new king?”
“What makes you
think I need your help?”
Lucifer smiled,
clearly unfazed by Tristan’s attitude. “Even now the throne room is filling up
with the leaders of each of the factions of demons, all here to bow down before
you and swear their loyalty.”
“You’re joking.”
“Well, most of them
will probably want to kill you and take your place, if truth be told, but they
generally wait until after the banquet is over.”
Tristan dropped into
one of the soft leather chairs. “This is going to be a disaster.”
“Not if you let me
guide you.”
“Why are you so keen
to help me? What difference does it make to you who’s king?”
“I don’t care who
sits on the throne, but I do like to ensure our new kings are settled in as
soon as possible. That way I can turn my attention back to more pleasurable
activities.”
Tristan cast a
glance toward the wall where the entrance to his rooms had been. “How do I even
get out into the throne room again?”
“Just walk toward
the entrance and imagine the doorway opening for you.”
Tristan took a step
forward and the entrance began to form. The most powerful demons in the
Underworld congregated just on the other side of the wall. Shit!

I have been very remiss about stopping by and commenting here. I am sorry. I was offline for much of the holidays and am now playing catch up. Thank you again for hosting me.
