Relic by Deena Remiel Virtual Blog Tour and Giveaway

United By Books is pleased to have had the the chance to sit down and chat with author, Deena Remiel about her angels. This is what came from our candid discussion about her upcoming, new release "Relic" available January 27th of this year.

 

 

*sits down, getting comfy to speak with one of my favorite authors about her upcoming release with an overwhelming feeling of excitement*

 

UBB: So, it looks like it's just you and me, sexy lady.

 

Deena: Niiiice.

 

UBB: *waggles brows*  Ready to spank me? *coughs* I mean chat with me about "Relic"?

 

Deena: So, let's roll

 

 

UBB: So *takes a sip of water* how do you envision these sexy angels of yours?

 

Deena: Well, I see them as massive walls of hunky, well-hewned flesh clad in leather pants, boots, wings and a sword. Just to start... Chiseled faces, mesmerizing multi-colored eyes, piercing gaze, complicated histories
 

UBB: *nods* Well, I see them as walking sex objects for all of us to ogle over and get all lusty about while they save us.... but we can go with your's.

Deena: *laughs* Oh, I think yours blends perfectly with mine!

UBB: *big smiles* Great minds think alike..... only you're the awesome author who brought it all to life for us readers and we are itching for our next angel fix... which is "Relic". Want to tell us a bit about what is coming our way?

Deena: *nods readily with a smile* Sure! Raphael, Brethern Savior, was left shaken by his failures at the end of "Trinity". He has a mission to complete, but knows that he has some serious problems to work out first... like how to get his healing powers back. He runs into a woman left for dead in the Arizona desert and has no choice but to do the right thing. There's a relic that winds up playing a huge role in bringing the two of them together. And his dead wife's soul, trapped in the relic,  tags along. Three souls, bound by  a relic, bound by an timeless gift, and bound by an eternal love.

UBB : *eyes wide* WOW! Now you have me really anxious for Raphael. Can you tell us more about the woman he runs into by chance?
 

Deena:  Sure, her name is Serena, and she owns Sikes and Sounds of Sedona, a jeep tour company.Her brother gave her the relic in question, but it's actually stolen. I forgot, Raphael does the right thing and takes her to the hospital. *laughs*

 

UBB:  *laughs* *pauses to wonder if I should sneak in a question* So you created Callie for Nathanael ("Elixxir"; book 3) with me in mind didn't you? 

Deena: *laughs and grins at my silliness but goes along with it* But of course... 

UBB: Do you have a favorite out of all your gorgeous angels? 

Deena: Great question!  Love Michael because he's my first. But Raphael is so freakin' sexy! Whew! And then there's Nathanael, who's such a tortured soul, and Gabriel, so reserved that I wanna make him come undone... Um... I guess we can say I can't decide! *laughs out loud*

 

UBB: *nods with understanding* Well, I can completely agree with you on that. Though as you know I claim Nathanael. 

Deena: You do have claims on him, since I gave him to you. But you will need to share a little with the hords of women clamoring after him. 

UBB: *pouts*

Deena:*laughs at the pout*

 

UBB: Is there anything special you want to share about what you are working on in the future?

 

Deena: *sly grin* I'm currently working on Nathanael's story. It's called "Elixxir". Raphael may be messed up, but Nathanael is a man on the edge. He's got the perfect woman to sharpen that edge, too.

UBB: *gasp* You're such a tease! 

Deena: And my lips are SEALED!

 

UBB: Not even a snippet? *puppy dog eyes*

 

Deena: Not from "Elixxir", nope. 

UBB: *thinks* Then how about a snippet of "Relic"? 

Deena: I would LOVE to tease you with Raphael and Serena... 

UBB: *waits impatiently*

 

 Deena : Here ya go... Serious snippage right now

 

 

 When Serena looked at his chiseled face, she lost herself in its symmetry and the beauty of his eyes. Two pools of brilliant blue, like the Aegean Sea, stared intensely at her through long black lashes and made her cheeks flush. For a breathless moment, she dared to stare back only to retreat seconds later. “I…I’m so tired, Raphael.” “I should go then.” He dropped his hand from her cheek. “Please don’t,” she blurted out before she could stop herself. “I mean, I know I have a guard at my door. But they’re zero and one, and you’re two for two. I’d just…I’d feel more comfortable if you were here. Can you…would you…consider staying? Only until I fall asleep?” She felt an irrational need to have this man near. This stranger. But for some reason, the doctors and nurses felt more like strangers than he did. “Yes,” he answered without hesitation. “I’ll stay.” He stroked her hair softly, lulling her to calm. “Now close your eyes and sleep. Tomorrow will take care of itself. You’ve nothing to fear tonight.”

UBB: Does Raphael have anything he wants to say to his fans? 

Deena: He would like to ask them to be patient with him as he works through his issues. He can't wait to live in their kindles, nooks, and other e-readers, and then on their book shelves!

 

UBB: Would you like to say anything to your adoring fans ?

 

Deena: I would like to tell my fans how much I ADORE THEM! I write for them and created this world of the Brethren for them. So, my Disciples, my Inner Sanctum, and my Street Angels are my life's blood. I love you all and feel blessed to know you.
