It has been an eventful two weeks since I wrote my last WIP Wednesday post. Sorry I missed last week. I was deep in edits on Her Wicked Angel and completely forgot what day it was until Friday!
Her Wicked Angel is now edited and resting, awaiting a few rounds of proofreading to finish it off and polish it to perfection. The edit went surprisingly smoothly, and my beta readers were invaluable. I decided to tweak the ending to make it better, and now I’m sure you will love it. Asmodeus is one serious bad boy and Liora is pretty kick-ass.
Not only did I get the edit of the book finished, but I’ve also designed the cover and have written the rough blurb for the book. I can’t reveal the complete cover until August 26th, when there will be a huge reveal across a lot of blogs, including my own. The picture above is a snippet from the cover though (tweaked and with added text), so you can really get a feel for how awesome it is. I think it’s better than the Her Demonic Angel cover and I’m expecting a few rounds of “holy hotness!” when it is finally revealed on August 26th.
The book is now on my Kindle, waiting for me to read it when I’m away next week, soaking up some sun and culture in Dubrovnik. I’m sure that the old town part of that city will become the setting for something in a future novel. I’m expecting to be really inspired by it as it’s beautiful.
I’m not sure what’s next on my agenda. Probably proofreading Eternal Mates book one, getting the cover done for it and getting the blurb written. Then I’ll be working on the next Eternal Mates book (CANNOT WAIT!) and after that the first Guardians of Hades novel.
Remember, the official release date for HER WICKED ANGEL is September 21st.
Not long now, really. It’s already August and September will be here before you know it.
To tide you over, how about a new snippet of the book?
“Do you not like the stars?†Liora whispered, her gaze returning to him.
Asmodeus paused at his work and looked over his wing to her. He did like the stars and he liked her too, and he thought she was infinitely more beautiful than they were. What would she say if he told her that?
He shoved that thought away and nodded. “I do, but my feathers are misaligned. They irritate me.â€
“Can you put your wings away?†Her hazel eyes lowered to his wing and, before he could answer that he could if he desired it, she had reached over, laid her palm on the curve of his wing, and was running her hand down it.
Holy Hell, that felt good.
A shiver bolted through him, hot and fierce, reigniting his blood and making it burn for more. He wanted her to stroke his wing again, to caress it and tease him, driving him wild with need for her.
His fangs lengthened and he sensed the moment his irises brightened and began to verge on crimson. Her eyes widened and her fingers paused against his feathers.
She sounded breathless when she uttered, “You like me touching them?â€
Asmodeus told himself not to nod and not to let on that her touching his wings had him hurtling towards the edge of bliss and had him rock hard in his loincloth.
He tried.
Failed.
He nodded and swallowed hard when she resumed her stroking, sending hot little shivers tripping over his flesh, stoking his hunger up degree after degree until he couldn’t take any more.
His red eyes narrowed on her lips.
He wanted to taste them again. He wanted to shove his fingers into her fall of soft chestnut hair, grasp the back of her head and yank it back so he could devour her mouth and master her.
He would do just that.
Asmodeus reached for her.
What do you think?
That was great, I’m loving these two can’t wait for the book now, me thinking I’m going to Love this one more than than the last one, I don’t know why Can’t put my finger on it but they seem a sweet match.!!!
