Felicity, thanks so much for having me here today to share my latest release, The Wolf's Torment, a paranormal romance set in Romania in the 1860's. Here's a blurb for your readers:
It's 1865 in Moldavia, a country nestled against the shores of the Black Sea, and Crown Prince Mihai Sigmaringen returns after receiving an education in England. His best friend, Viktor Bacau joins him. Mihai is intent on modernizing his nation, but he's also a witch, and it's time he embraces his heritage. The tasks in front of him are many including getting married.
Lady Theresa von Kracken arrives in Constanta as Mihai's intended. Mihai has vowed not to fall in love again, but Theresa manages to break the battlements around his heart.
In an unfortunate twist of fate, Viktor is bitten by a werewolf. Viktor's transformation threatens everyone around him including his wife's safety and Mihai's happiness with Theresa. Viktor's bite is the wolf's torment.

The Wolf's Torment has it all, witches, werewolves, a vampire, a princess and a prince. This is paranormal romance at its finest.
ENJOY THIS EXCERPT:
Wood snapped. A baby cried. Mihai couldn't wait. A kick to the door weakened the hinges. With another kick, the door snapped open. Mihai rushed in, gun drawn. Viktor had a knife to Alina's neck. Michael was in her arms.
"Come to kill me, Mihai?" Viktor's voice was cold, devoid of emotion.
Mihai froze near the door. He didn't have a good shot of Viktor with Alina next to him. His shirt was open showing a glistening stone around his neck. A sapphire. Damn. The thing would protect him against poisoning and Mihai was counting on using his silver bullets.
"If I have to."
Viktor's eerie laugh stabbed at Mihai's heart. "I'm your friend -- your sister's husband. You wouldn't kill me. Now put the gun down."
"Let Alina and Michael go."
"Drop the gun."
Mihai stooped, placing the gun on the ground. Alina's gaze darted to the table. There were several powders and vials spread out haphazardly. Did she mean for him to use them? He sensed fear rising within her.
"I have no intention of letting them go. Now, you're going to let me walk out of here."
Mihai pursed his lips. Alina's gaze once again went to the table. She must want him to use the powder.
Viktor pushed Alina forward. Michael cried.
"Stay where you are, Mihai." Viktor turned to look at his companion. "Alina, shut the baby up."
That was the split second Mihai needed. He lunged, grabbed a handful of the powder, and flung it at Viktor. It stung Alina's eyes as well. They both coughed and wheezed. Viktor released her. She grabbed the sapphire around his neck and yanked on the chain. The stone fell to the floor. Alina collapsed, falling to her knees and looked at Viktor. Mihai felt a rush of energy fly past them.
"Wisps of buckthorn speak true, blind the beast, his heart impure, bring sight to the man whose aim is just and right and good."
A spell! Viktor dropped the knife. Mihai grabbed Viktor's wrists. This was his chance now that the pendant was off.
"King Mihai!"
Mihai glanced at the door, taking his attention off Viktor. Sergeant Ceseanu.
"Take Alina and Michael to safety! Now!" Mihai yelled.
Sergeant Ceseanu rushed to Alina's side, helped her to her feet, and pushed her out the door, Michael still in her arms. Viktor shoved Mihai against the wall of the room. Damn, he was strong! Mihai did not
have Viktor's strength, but he did have his wits.
"You're weak, Mihai."
Mihai brought his leg up, striking Viktor near his groin. Viktor tumbled backward. His former friend may be strong, but Mihai could channel energy.
Viktor caught his balance and lunged at Mihai again, tackling him. They fell to the floor, tumbling over each other. Viktor's fist connected with Mihai's ribs. Pain seared through him. Mihai had to end this -- and quickly.

Her Guardian Angel, Masquerade and more
It's been a while since I just sat down and wrote about what I've been up to, and I've been meaning to do a catch up post for a few weeks now. Things were hectic for me in April. I was still arranging dates and appearances for my ongoing
Paranormal Pandemonium 2011 Blog Tour
(if you're a book blog interested in hosting me at all, do get in touch - felicity_heaton (at) yahoo (dot) co (dot) uk - as I'm always looking for more places to do interviews, articles, and get reviews done for my books) and I was trying to get the first draft of Her Guardian Angel written before my trip to Barcelona at the start of May.
Her Guardian Angel was the first book I had written since giving up my day job to focus on my writing and it's been a bit of a struggle to grow accustomed to working from home on a novel. I was pleased with the amount of words I could get down onto paper, well screen at least, by being in my office at home without interruptions. I just need to find a balance between writing and the admin side of things when I'm actively working on a book. When I write, I just want to write and that's all. Once I get going, everything else drifts into the background and I have a tendency to just ignore it. Of course, it's hard to ignore all the emails, articles, interviews, etc when they pile up. Then I end up switching to admin mode for days on end to clear the backlog. What I need to do is strike a balance between writing and admin. I think I'll get there in the end, but it's something that isn't going to happen overnight.
The good thing is that the first draft of Her Guardian Angel, the fourth book in my Her Angel series and the first novel length outing, is now complete at 92000 words, and that I got it done before I went away. I didn't want to have to come back from holiday and try to pick up right at the end of the book and finish it. That would have been very difficult to do without reading quite a large chunk of it back, which would have taken time out of my schedule. I'm pleased with how it has turned out, but I know there's a few places where I need to fix it up a bit, or iron out some wrinkles at least. That's what the second draft is for.
The second draft on this angel romance book will be done when it's had time to rest, which gives me time to write my next novel, or novella.
At the moment, I'm working on Masquerade, which is book number 10 in my Vampires Realm series. I think it's likely to be a long novella, somewhere around 50000 words in total. Just shy of a novel. I have the story planned and this time we're in St Petersburg with the Venia bloodline for a very special Creator Day masquerade. I'll get to write plenty of old faces in this one, which I'm really looking forward to. I've managed to get the first chapter done today despite my muse's protests. He's tired from our holiday and having guests over, and just wants to slack off this week.
There's not much chance of that happening though. I not only have the first draft of Masquerade to get into, but I'm putting together designs for promotional material for prize packs as I have a few big giveaways coming up and want to get some postcards, bookmarks, keyrings, magnets and other items made. I'm also knee-deep in articles and interviews that need my attention. There's no rest for the wicked it seems. I've had my week off and now I'm back in the thick of it.
I have been enjoying the chance to devour a few books over the past week though, and managed to read two of them. I'll try to get my reviews written up for them and posted soon.
Back to work I go... just wanted to drop by and let you all know what I've been up to so you can get a feel for all the crazy stuff that goes into writing my books :)

Felicity Heaton
Rescued from werewolves by the most breathtaking man she's ever seen, Lauren is dragged into the fight of her life and a dark world she never knew existed. There, she discovers that she's the latest reincarnation of a goddess and must drink the blood of her immortal protector, Julian, in order to reawaken and continue her three thousand year old mission to defeat Lycaon, the original werewolf.
With the help of Julian and an organisation of people with supernatural abilities, Lauren fights for her life, their future and the fate of mankind against Lycaon and his deadly army, but can she succeed when Lycaon has killed all of her predecessors?
Can she crack the armour around Julian's heart and seize her happily forever after with him? And can Julian bring himself to trust Lauren with the fragments of his heart after everything he's been through?

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT
Julian rubbed his thumb over the most recent set of marks on his arm. The hot water pounded down on his back, easing tired muscles but doing little to wake him. Daylight always made him tired, but while Lauren insisted on remaining awake, he couldn't give in to his need for sleep.
His thumb grazed the marks again. Each sweep sent a tremor through him, an echo of what it had felt like to have Lauren bite him. He had lost all awareness, even when he'd tried to retain his focus in case something happened while Lauren was feeding. It had frightened him to realise just how deeply Lauren affected him.
And it had made him think.
That thinking had brought him to this point, shut in the bathroom under the pretence of taking a shower but in reality needing some time apart from Lauren. He'd traced the progression of his feelings back to when he'd first met her but had found no point at which he'd dropped his guard. He had protected himself against her the moment he'd realised that she was different and that he was in danger of having his heart broken again.
Perhaps even then it had been too late. Maybe she had already worked her way into his heart. She had disarmed him with her shy glances and pretty blushes, with the way she smiled at him, her beautiful face lighting up with each one. Each one had seen her step a little closer, until she'd passed his defences and snatched his fragmented heart.
Now she held it in her hands. Now she had power over him as the others once had. With a single word or action, she could shatter him.
He buried his face in his hands, clawed his hair back, and dug his fingertips into his scalp. How could he be so weak and foolish? How could he believe even for a second that Lauren might love him? She could never love him. No one loved him.
No one but her.
And she was long gone. History itself had forgotten her, so why couldn't he?
She had cursed him to this life.
No, perhaps she had believed that she would be the same when she came back. Perhaps she hadn't realised how different she would be each time.
And how she would never love him again.
His hands shook against his scalp. He trembled on the precipice that Lauren had built him up to, pushing him ever onwards. It was still a long way down. Immortality wouldn't save him if he fell. It hadn't helped last time. It had only turned a quick death into a long painful torture.
He couldn't face that again.
But he couldn't push her away. If he did, she would take what little heart he had left, what spark of life she had ignited in him. He needed her too much. She was his life now. His precious Lauren. If he pushed her away, he would be dead again.
Since she had unmasked him on the rooftop, he had changed by degrees, convincing himself that she liked him. Duke hadn't helped, giving him a speech about Lauren and her feelings, making him believe that she could grow to love him. That she needed him and wanted to be close to him.
Her own behaviour had backed up Duke's theory, forcing Julian to face his own feelings and to discover the depth of them. It frightened him. The moment in the living room had been his breaking point. If he allowed things to continue unchecked, he faced an eternity of pain and misery stronger than he had endured before. He had to guard his feelings now before it was too late. He had to obey his orders, reinstating his sense of duty and his loyalty, not continue to push against them. He couldn't bend them anymore. They would break and so would he.
But he wouldn't push her away. No. He would distance himself again and guard his heart until he was certain of her feelings.
The water turned cold against his back.
Three thousand years of existence, of facing insurmountable odds and death, and he was scared of facing a woman.
But then death was a release from a painful existence. What Lauren could do to him would torture him for another three thousand years.
Lauren believed she wasn't strong enough and thought that he was. A mirthless laugh escaped Julian's lips. Strong? He'd never felt so weak. He had fought his heart, his feelings, and failed. He wasn't strong enough to overcome his love for Lauren. His heart had defeated him. He needed her. She was his weakness. Not Illia. For Lauren, he would do anything. If she ordered him to, he would leap from the precipice.
He would cut out his own heart and offer it to her.
"Julian?" Her voice was soft through the door, temptation personified. He shut the shower off and focused on her. She was worried.
Stepping out of the cubicle, Julian walked naked to the closed door and studied it. He could feel her on the other side, leaning against it. He placed his hand against the white wood, exactly where hers was on the other side. If only he were brave enough to take her hand like this, to hold it as he had before and let her see what she did to him. Would she understand the things that he'd been through? He'd hidden his pain from the others but each of them had contributed to it. Each of them had shattered his heart a little more. Illia had broken it in two. The next had smashed each of those two pieces into two again. And so it had continued. Each time she was reborn, the broken pieces of his heart doubled. Could Lauren piece it together? Would she do that only to break it all over again?
All he could do now was hold on until he could no longer bear it, until he could find the words and strength to make her understand what he had been through because of her, and until he was certain that she loved him.
"Julian?" she whispered.
Could she sense him standing here, so close but so far away?
Without a word, he stepped back from the door and turned around. He picked up a small white towel and rubbed his hair with it. The finger-length black strands turned fluffy. He ran a hand over them, tousling them back into long spikes that criss-crossed his forehead and stroked his neck. His reflection in the gilt framed oval mirror mocked him. Lauren wouldn't love him. She would take his heart and toss it into the abyss at his feet. She would make him follow it. She would never love him. No one did.
Julian cursed under his breath.
He would sooner face three hundred werewolves than such a moment.
He stared into his eyes, seeing himself as a commander, the soldier he'd once been. His fear of what a woman could do to him was shameful.
He reminded himself that it was a long time since he'd been human but the events that had occurred then had echoed in eternity with him. His love for Illia had paved the way for his eternal torture and this fear. It was painful enough without him allowing Lauren to make it worse. When you lived for forever, there was no such thing as taking chances and seizing the day. There was no definite end to the hurt if Lauren turned on him, if she didn't love him. He would carry that pain for centuries. It would be the end of him.
Julian drew a deep breath, wrapped the small towel around his waist, and stared at himself for a few seconds longer. He was stronger than this and he would overcome his fears. He would see if Lauren's feelings were real and weren't a figment of his imagination. He would test her and then he would make a decision about what to do.
Until then, he would keep the gates to his heart firmly closed. She might hold it in her hands, but she was still on the outside. Only he could let her in.
He opened the bathroom door and frowned when she wasn't standing there. She was sitting on edge of the bed facing him, her hands grasping the dark brown covers either side of her thighs. Her gaze immediately fixed on his face, and then steadily dropped to his bare torso. Her pupils dilated. Her cheeks turned crimson.
Aware of his almost nude state, Julian walked around the room, careful to make sure that her gaze was following him.

He'd traced the progression of his feelings back to when he'd first met her but had found no point at which he'd dropped his guard. He had protected himself against her the moment he'd realised that she was different and that he was in danger of having his heart broken again.
Perhaps even then it had been too late. Maybe she had already worked her way into his heart. She had disarmed him with her shy glances and pretty blushes, with the way she smiled at him, her beautiful face lighting up with each one. Each one had seen her step a little closer, until she'd passed his defences and snatched his fragmented heart.
Now she held it in her hands. Now she had power over him as the others once had. With a single word or action, she could shatter him.
He buried his face in his hands, clawed his hair back, and dug his fingertips into his scalp. How could he be so weak and foolish? How could he believe even for a second that Lauren might love him? She could never love him. No one loved him.
No one but her.
And she was long gone. History itself had forgotten her, so why couldn't he?
She had cursed him to this life.
No, perhaps she had believed that she would be the same when she came back. Perhaps she hadn't realised how different she would be each time.
And how she would never love him again.
His hands shook against his scalp. He trembled on the precipice that Lauren had built him up to, pushing him ever onwards. It was still a long way down. Immortality wouldn't save him if he fell. It hadn't helped last time. It had only turned a quick death into a long painful torture.
He couldn't face that again.
But he couldn't push her away. If he did, she would take what little heart he had left, what spark of life she had ignited in him. He needed her too much. She was his life now. His precious Lauren. If he pushed her away, he would be dead again.
Since she had unmasked him on the rooftop, he had changed by degrees, convincing himself that she liked him. Duke hadn't helped, giving him a speech about Lauren and her feelings, making him believe that she could grow to love him. That she needed him and wanted to be close to him.
Her own behaviour had backed up Duke's theory, forcing Julian to face his own feelings and to discover the depth of them. It frightened him. The moment in the living room had been his breaking point. If he allowed things to continue unchecked, he faced an eternity of pain and misery stronger than he had endured before. He had to guard his feelings now before it was too late. He had to obey his orders, reinstating his sense of duty and his loyalty, not continue to push against them. He couldn't bend them anymore. They would break and so would he.
But he wouldn't push her away. No. He would distance himself again and guard his heart until he was certain of her feelings.
The water turned cold against his back.
Three thousand years of existence, of facing insurmountable odds and death, and he was scared of facing a woman.
But then death was a release from a painful existence. What Lauren could do to him would torture him for another three thousand years.
Lauren believed she wasn't strong enough and thought that he was. A mirthless laugh escaped Julian's lips. Strong? He'd never felt so weak. He had fought his heart, his feelings, and failed. He wasn't strong enough to overcome his love for Lauren. His heart had defeated him. He needed her. She was his weakness. Not Illia. For Lauren, he would do anything. If she ordered him to, he would leap from the precipice.
He would cut out his own heart and offer it to her.
"Julian?" Her voice was soft through the door, temptation personified. He shut the shower off and focused on her. She was worried.
Stepping out of the cubicle, Julian walked naked to the closed door and studied it. He could feel her on the other side, leaning against it. He placed his hand against the white wood, exactly where hers was on the other side. If only he were brave enough to take her hand like this, to hold it as he had before and let her see what she did to him. Would she understand the things that he'd been through? He'd hidden his pain from the others but each of them had contributed to it. Each of them had shattered his heart a little more. Illia had broken it in two. The next had smashed each of those two pieces into two again. And so it had continued. Each time she was reborn, the broken pieces of his heart doubled. Could Lauren piece it together? Would she do that only to break it all over again?
All he could do now was hold on until he could no longer bear it, until he could find the words and strength to make her understand what he had been through because of her, and until he was certain that she loved him.
"Julian?" she whispered.
Could she sense him standing here, so close but so far away?
Without a word, he stepped back from the door and turned around. He picked up a small white towel and rubbed his hair with it. The finger-length black strands turned fluffy. He ran a hand over them, tousling them back into long spikes that criss-crossed his forehead and stroked his neck. His reflection in the gilt framed oval mirror mocked him. Lauren wouldn't love him. She would take his heart and toss it into the abyss at his feet. She would make him follow it. She would never love him. No one did.
Julian cursed under his breath.
He would sooner face three hundred werewolves than such a moment.
He stared into his eyes, seeing himself as a commander, the soldier he'd once been. His fear of what a woman could do to him was shameful.
He reminded himself that it was a long time since he'd been human but the events that had occurred then had echoed in eternity with him. His love for Illia had paved the way for his eternal torture and this fear. It was painful enough without him allowing Lauren to make it worse. When you lived for forever, there was no such thing as taking chances and seizing the day. There was no definite end to the hurt if Lauren turned on him, if she didn't love him. He would carry that pain for centuries. It would be the end of him.
Julian drew a deep breath, wrapped the small towel around his waist, and stared at himself for a few seconds longer. He was stronger than this and he would overcome his fears. He would see if Lauren's feelings were real and weren't a figment of his imagination. He would test her and then he would make a decision about what to do.
Until then, he would keep the gates to his heart firmly closed. She might hold it in her hands, but she was still on the outside. Only he could let her in.
He opened the bathroom door and frowned when she wasn't standing there. She was sitting on edge of the bed facing him, her hands grasping the dark brown covers either side of her thighs. Her gaze immediately fixed on his face, and then steadily dropped to his bare torso. Her pupils dilated. Her cheeks turned crimson.
Aware of his almost nude state, Julian walked around the room, careful to make sure that her gaze was following him.

Review: Hearts in Darkness by Keri Arthur
Having read the first book in Ms Arthur's Nikki & Michael series and really enjoying it, I just had to get hold of the remaining three books in the series and read them. I'm glad that I did!
So here's my candid review of this paranormal romance book by Keri Arthur.
Hearts in Darkness
Keri Arthur
Life has never been so insane for Nikki James. There's another teenager missing. She has another vampire to contend with. Her partner and best friend Jake is in the hospital dying. And a madman is kidnapping the wealthy. Just when it seems nothing else could possibly go wrong, Michael returns-but not for her. This time, however, Nikki has no intention of running from either the case or from what still lies between her and Michael. And she isn't going to let him run, either.
The last thing Michael Kelly needs is a confrontation with Nikki-especially when his control over his bloodlust is still so tenuous. But when a kidnapper steps up his agenda to murder, he's forced into a partnership with Nikki to keep her safe. Soon Michael discovers the biggest danger he faces may not be from his need to "taste" her, but from his desire to make her a permanent part of his life-a life that is sure to get her killed.
Nikki is determined to make Michael see that life apart is worse than death. But before she can make him see the light, a specter from Michael's past rises that could destroy any hope she has of a future with him. Because this time the threat isn't physical. It's a matter of the heart.Nikki must compete with the woman-the vampire-for whom Michael gave up life.
Review
The second book in the Nikki & Michael series, Hearts in Darkness was another slice of paranormal romantic suspense that had me gripped until the last page. I didn't want to put this one down, and yet again it was probably thanks to the leading vampire in the book, Michael. Michael is the sort of tall dark and deadly that I love. At the end of the first book, he leaves the heroine Nikki because she gave her blood to him in order to save her life, unwittingly releasing the darker vampire side of him that he had kept on a tight leash. It's that darkness and the feeling that he could be just as much a bad guy as the next vampire if it wasn't for his iron will and the depth of his desire to protect the world from his sort of evil, that really draws me to him, along with the romantic notion of wanting to protect Nikki from everything including himself.
This book opens six months after the first and Nikki is heartbroken even though she knew that Michael was going to leave her, and she's been searching for him whilst continuing her job as a private investigator. Good luck with that since he's brooding in a remote cabin and quietly pining for her. Her latest case leads her to a run in with a female vampire and her vampire minions from which she barely escapes alive, and together with another case that points towards the same location in Wyoming, it leads her back into Michael's life. Convinced by his superiors at the Circle to take up a case at a resort called Jackson Hole and to take Nikki with him because she'll die if he isn't there to protect her, Michael reluctantly returns to her and convinces her to play newlyweds as a cover during their investigation. Okay, it's an obvious plot device along with another one in this book that I won't mention, but it works for bringing them back together and that's fine with me.
I'm glad that this time Nikki has the good sense to do all in her power to make Michael stay and convince him that his life isn't the only one full of danger and darkness and that she can handle it if he'd just let her into his world and his heart. We didn't get the repetition of her feelings this time, although we were treated to a hefty does of repetition of set phrases by the author and a few grammatical errors / wrong word usage. I can overlook those but Ms Arthur really did repeat a couple of things to death, such as licking dry lips and snorting softly, and rubbing her arms. I'll forgive her for now though as the repetitions this time weren't as irritating and the plot was great, full of characters and emotion, and suspense too. These books are chocked full of that. The plot is detailed, description is vivid enough to allow you to picture things, and the suspense is enough to hold you in place on your armchair and keep you reading. The romance really blossoms in this one and although it takes half the book for the lovebirds to realise that there's just no use fighting each other, it didn't irritate me. I didn't want them to rush their relationship as I was enjoying just how pigheaded and stubborn the pair could be. They're a match made in Heaven. Nikki is stubborn as Hell in her desire to conquer Michael's iron will and determination to keep her at arm's length, Michael is steadfast in his desire to protect her from his darkness and the evil in his world regardless of the pain he would feel in living without her for eternity. Perfect!
All in all, I'm going to say that if you're a fan of darker paranormal romances that have plenty of suspense and plot, then pick this series up and fall in love with these characters for yourself. I didn't um or ah this time about the rating. It's a straight four hearts from me, and I'm off to read the next book in the series as I want to know what's going to happen and what changes are going to take place next with Nikki's evolving powers!

Love Immortal - character interview with Julian
As part of my Paranormal Pandemonium 2011 Blog Tour, I'll be interviewing some characters and doing some posts on my own blog too, Indie Paranormal Romance Books. First up in my character interviews is the beautiful Julian from my epic vampire romance book, Love Immortal.
Julian, for those not familiar with him, is the sinfully gorgeous, dark haired and icy-blue eyed immortal protector of Lauren, the latest reincarnation of a goddess he once worshipped. He also commanded her army of Arcadian soldiers in their fight against Lycaon, the vicious original werewolf who was cursed by Zeus for tricking him into eating human flesh. Julian is drop dead handsome and with a beautiful soul to match his exterior. He's skilled with his silver katana, has preternatural strength, speed, sight, hearing and senses, and is a very determined yet sensitive man. He's also one of the ancestors, along with Lauren, of what we think of as vampires. Just don't let him hear you say that!
FH: I have Julian here with me today to talk about his book, Love Immortal. Firstly, can you tell us a little about yourself?
Julian: If necessary. I was born three thousand years ago in Arcadia, what you would think of as Greece these days, and died there. My goddess, Illia, gave me life immortal and Zeus allowed me to pass over, charging me with the duty of giving Illia's reincarnations my blood in order to awaken them. I am also her protector. Illia's blood has gifted me with preternatural strength and abilities, but because of it I also share her need for blood as sustenance. Upon my rebirth as her immortal protector, my thirst for blood awakened and I have not been able to eat or drink anything else since. It is a small price to pay for being able to continue to my duty as her commander.
FH: Can you tell us about what happened in your story?
Julian: My story has been flowing for the past three thousand years, broken into chapters that encompassed the lives of each of Illia's incarnations. The one you chose to write about was the final chapter, in which Lauren was born as the next incarnation and our paths crossed. From the moment I met her, I feared her fate would be the same as all of her predecessors and that she would fall to Lycaon's blade, the first werewolf and the man she was charged with the duty of defeating. Lycaon had killed all those that had come before her, even Illia, and had continued with his plan to gain revenge on Zeus and Olympus for the curse they had placed on him. For the first time in forever, I hoped that Lycaon would fall and I vowed to do all in my power to ensure that Lauren survived.
FH: In Love Immortal, you meet Lauren, who is the latest reincarnation of the goddess Illia. How did you meet and how did you feel about her initially?
Julian: Lauren is unlike any of the previous incarnations of my lost goddess. She is so much warmer and more compassionate than all of them, even Illia herself. Lauren made me realise that I had long been dead inside and breathed life back into me little by little, until I slowly realised my feelings for her. I had been through so much pain because of her predecessors that it was difficult for me to bring myself to trust her even when I wanted to with all of my heart. I couldn't take my eyes off her from the moment I set them on her, and I knew I had to find a way to make her mine, even risking my heart to achieve that.
FH: Your relationship with Lauren is complicated because of your role as her protector and the things that have happened in your past. Was it difficult at first?
Julian: It was very difficult. It took a lot for me to come to trust her and convince myself that she was worth the fight, and that she was different to the others and I wasn't imagining the feelings that she showed towards me. I think I frustrated her immensely at first. In fact, I know that I did. Sometimes she mentions what a pain I was and how hard I made her work. I had not realised that I had made things so difficult for her. I had only thought of guarding my heart against her because of the things that had happened to me in my past and the pain I had been through. I couldn't bear the thought of Lauren putting me through such pain too. It would have been the end of me.
FH: But it wasn't, and things turned out well for you in the end. How has life been since the events that happened and brought you together?
Julian: It has been busy. We had a short period of rest together to recuperate from the battle and then went straight back to work. Lauren is very enthusiastic about her work and what she sees as her duty. We have trained hard together too, so I know that she is ready to face whatever demons may come our way. At the moment, we are working closely with Duke and are also in contact with Morgan about his werewolf problem. Lauren says that we cannot delay much longer but I have little desire to set foot in Paris again, or see that vampire. I am certain he will try to gain Lauren's affection somehow and that is something I cannot allow, and if it came to blows I know that Lauren would be angry with me. I cannot help myself when I feel someone is trying to take her from me. She is mine and I love her with all of my heart and my soul. I live for her. I would die for her.
FH: You old romantic! I think it's beautiful that you're so possessive of her now that you have her. I have one more question for you and it's something you'll need to think about. Describe yourself in one word.
Julian: Steadfast.
FH: I would have gone with gorgeous. *smiles* Thank you for meeting with me today and chatting. Is there anything else that you'd like to add?
Julian: Only my thanks to you for penning the tale of our love and victory, and that I hope we can work together again in the future. Lauren has mentioned that you have had several requests for more of our tales. I am sure there is something we can do to satisfy those readers of yours. Another epic quest perhaps. Do you think they would enjoy reading it?
FH: I do. I can't wait to hear it. Thank you again for being here today, and say hi to Lauren and the gang for me. *watches his tight backside as he walks away* yum.
Here's a little information about Love Immortal and the places it's available:

Lauren is very enthusiastic about her work and what she sees as her duty. We have trained hard together too, so I know that she is ready to face whatever demons may come our way. At the moment, we are working closely with Duke and are also in contact with Morgan about his werewolf problem. Lauren says that we cannot delay much longer but I have little desire to set foot in Paris again, or see that vampire. I am certain he will try to gain Lauren's affection somehow and that is something I cannot allow, and if it came to blows I know that Lauren would be angry with me. I cannot help myself when I feel someone is trying to take her from me. She is mine and I love her with all of my heart and my soul. I live for her. I would die for her.
FH: You old romantic! I think it's beautiful that you're so possessive of her now that you have her. I have one more question for you and it's something you'll need to think about. Describe yourself in one word.
Julian: Steadfast.
FH: I would have gone with gorgeous. *smiles* Thank you for meeting with me today and chatting. Is there anything else that you'd like to add?
Julian: Only my thanks to you for penning the tale of our love and victory, and that I hope we can work together again in the future. Lauren has mentioned that you have had several requests for more of our tales. I am sure there is something we can do to satisfy those readers of yours. Another epic quest perhaps. Do you think they would enjoy reading it?
FH: I do. I can't wait to hear it. Thank you again for being here today, and say hi to Lauren and the gang for me. *watches his tight backside as he walks away* yum.
Here's a little information about Love Immortal and the places it's available:
