Finding Cally (Guest Post and Contest)

Today, I have Kerrianne Coombs on my blog to talk about her new book, Beauty and the Beast.
When I came up with the idea of this book—Beauty and the Beast. I made myself wonder what type of pampered princess would fall in love with a beast? What sort of well-bred, spoiled princess would look past the fact that Beast is well…a beast? 
In the ‘original’ fairy tales—although I love them—they tend to promote beauty as the only reason a man and woman can fall in love. We all know this for crap, but it still made me wonder how exactly I was supposed to get a princess to look past Brigg’s Coughbeastliness, and find the lovely, sexy demon underneath.
My only conclusion was that the princess would have had to have some hefty baggage herself, to be able to do this. 
I found it hard to admit, but sympathy is only bred from understanding, and I think that Cally (Princess Callindra) after what she had been through in her life—and it’s a lot—would most definitely understand.
Cally finds Brigg when she is desperate. Brigg finds Cally when he has given up. Awwwww. ;-)  It was a wonderful journey walking Brigg and Cally through their confusing feeling’s for one another. And even more fun when they actually accepted it! LOL

Beauty and the Beast Blurb:  When Princess Callindra of Tempath, wakes up hog-tied and bruised in the bowels of hell, she realizes that her plan to escape her up-coming marriage has gone horribly wrong. Her only hope of escape comes in the form of Brigg, cursed Rain Demon and bitter, human hating bastard. But beggars can’t be choosers.When Brigg finds himself in possession of a human and a horde of angry demons desperate to get her back, he flees. When he realizes that she is the daughter of the witch that cursed him and his family, he believes that he has finally got the opportunity he has been hoping for. The only thing he must decide now is what is more important to him, the reversal of the curse, or revenge?Neither one are prepared for the flame that ignites between them. But will the spark be enough to break to the curse that holds them apart?
Excerpt:
Brigg walked back to the castle and opened the heavy wooden door. He was utterly shattered. His muscles burned from running but his mind was still filled with Cally. No matter how hard or fast he had run, he couldn’t clear her from his thoughts. He had waited until he was sure she was asleep before he came back.What was he going to do tomorrow? Lust was so heavy in his body, it burned and urged him—even when she was nowhKerrianne has graciously offered a $5 Amazon gift card and a copy of Beauty and the Beast to one lucky commenter.
