1. Levi,
are you upset your name is not in the title?
No of course not. I know who I am
and I don’t need a title to announce it.
2. Is
your love interest the way you pictured her? Or would you have preferred
someone with a different hair color?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I’ve
learned that from my travels around the world. I capture beauty in tragedy, in
ugliness and in God’s creations around the world.
3. Do
you have any annoying habits your author did not share with us in your book?
I
still have trouble living indoors. I jump when cars backfire. I prefer not to
participate in fireworks. Too many load noises make me feel like I’m back in
Iraq. Oh, I’ve been told I snore!
4. Any
hobbies we might be interested in knowing about?
Besides my photography? Well,
I suppose that isn’t really a hobby. It has provided quite well for me. I’ve
always been fascinated with mythological creatures. Now more than ever. *winks*
5. Are
you happy with the profession your author chose for you or would you rather be
working at something totally different and why?
Oh no. If I hadn’t had my PTSD
from the Army, and used photography to escape. (Yes I admit it.) I wouldn’t
have been here to meet Daphnaie.
6. Would
you like to be taller, blonder, thinner or smarter than you have been
portrayed?
Smarter, definitely. I would like to be able to stop my grandmother
without involving Daphnaie
7. Are
you planning to make an appearance in a sequel? If not are you unhappy about
that?
I’m planning on it. Whether or not my author sends it in is another
story. At least I know my cousin who is a forest ranger is smarter than me! He
has a plan to stop my grandmother. And you won’t believe why she has such a
hate on for this place!
8. Now
for a personal question. Is there enough sex in the book for you? Would you
have liked more?
Oh my god! Any more sex and I think it would have killed me.
You do realize that my Daphnaie needs sex to heal her tree, right? Nonstop, any
which way you can sex! I do my best to keep up. Thank goodness we had a little
help! *grins*
9. Did
you author handle your “love” scenes the way you like or was she too explicit
or not explicit enough?
Sorry, I was too busy having sex to pay attention.
Outdoor where god and everyone could watch.
10. Are
you happy with the setting? Did you want a bigger house or car?
LOL. House,
Car? I was camping. No tent as I need to see the sky.
11. How
many re-writes did you have to live through? Ten?
All the beta reads and edits
and even before that. My author had a little trouble getting through some of the
sex scenes. I like to think it was envy. *winks*
12. Did
your story end too soon?
It ended with me able to keep Daphnaie, but didn’t
feel like an ending to me, more of a beginning of a fantastic life.
13. Who
was your favorite supporting character?
Definitely the support I got from the
wind nymphs. I was about burnt out at that point. I thought.
14. Do
you want your story to become a series with you as a recurring character?
I
think one more should do it. I just want Grandma stopped. I love her, but she’s
rabid about destroying this glen, the whole property really. But it’s
Daphnaie’s home and she’s not the only one that would die if my grandmother
succeeds.
15. Were
you happy with your wardrobe?
It was clothes. *shrugs* What can I say? I was very
happy with Daphnaie’s clothes, or rather the lack there of.
Intrigued? Meet Levi and Daphnaie in Lightning Strike.
For generations Levi’s family had guarded a
sacred glen in the mountains. Still far
from man this isolated area was a favorite spot of his grandfather. Levi grew up listening to his tales and fell
in love without ever having stepped foot there.
Now Levi’s family, led by his grandmother, wanted to
sell the land. With only his grandfather
and Levi against it, Levi has to prove to the rest of the family why they needed
to continue their guardianship.
Believing in his grandfather’s tales despite himself, Levi went armed
with his camera and his well-known expertise behind the lens and headed out for
proof.
Providing that proof and protecting the secrets of
the glen from the world, Gaia needs to convince Levi to continue that
protection. Daphnaie, the embodiment of
his every dream, is sent to show him why, stealing his heart in the process to
save her world.
