Her Demonic Angel
Felicity Heaton

A demonic angel with a heart of ice, Veiron walks a dark path with vengeance on his mind. Nothing will sway him from his mission to destroy his master… until he risks his life to enter Hell once more to save a mortal female. The fiery beauty makes him burn with hungers he must battle and needs he cannot deny, tempting him to surrender body and soul to her.

Erin is convinced her refusal to do the Devilâ€™s bidding will see her die in a terrifying realm straight out of her nightmares. The last thing she expects is the lethally sensual warrior who breaks into her cell and awakens the darkest desires of her heart and a fierce longing to know the heat of his caress.

Pulled into an incredible world where war is set to ignite and darkness is on the rise, Erin races with Veiron to escape the Devilâ€™s legions in a journey fraught with danger and filled with passion that flares white-hot.

When Erin is faced with a life-shattering realisation and an extraordinary destiny, will their love give them the strength to battle both Heaven and Hell or will they be parted forever?

What am I working on next? Vampire Erotic Theatre series and Vampires Realm series

Posted on 14th September 2012 by Felicity Heaton

Now that I’ve completed the first draft of the first book in my Guardians of Hades series, I will be shifting my focus back to my vampires and in particular my two series: Vampires Realm and Vampire Erotic Theatre.

I’m sure many of you are pleased to see those two series mentioned here under the heading of what I’ll be working on next. I have three books to write for these two series. Two of the books are in the Vampire Erotic Theatre romance series, and the third book is the next novel in my Vampires Realm romance series that I write as F E Heaton.

I don’t think I really need to say whose books I will be writing for my Vampire Erotic Theatre series. First up will be Payne’s book, Bewitch. I’m focusing on convincing him to talk to me at the moment and tell me about his life, his love, and his romance story. The more I talk to Payne about his story and listen to what he has to say, and also listen to his heroine and what she has to say on the matter, the darker this book becomes. I hope you like a little edge to your romance. I’ll try to rein Payne in a little, but the guy has a lot of trauma in his past and he’s seriously screwed up beneath that cool exterior. I’ll reveal all in his book, but right now I will admit that he’s going to challenge both Antoine and Snow when it comes to who has the most traumatic life. Expect fireworks from Payne’s book. We’re heading into the fae underworld and Payne is going to have to face his demons if he wants to return to Vampirerotique with the item he set out to find. The witch he meets is going to drive a hard bargain, and it’s one that might just break Payne and destroy them both if they’re not careful. I don’t think his little witch realises just how hot the fire she’s playing with is… but she’s going to find out!

I’ve also been listening to Snow a little over the past few weeks. Snow likes to bend my ear whenever I have a moment to spare. Snow’s heroine is also quite quick to take advantage of any down time that I have. It’s unusual for a heroine to be so communicative. I always find that it’s the heroes who talk the most and the loudest, and the heroines tend to be the quieter, calmer character. I think it’s because I often write romances focused on the hero rather than the heroine. It’s often the heroes story and the heroine is almost the secondary character. I’m fairly certain that there are some readers among you who are excited to hear that Snow has been quite communicative about his story and we’re already working on the outline for his novel. I think Snow’s heroine is so chatty about him and herself because she’s known him for a long time.

The other vampire romance book I’ve been writing down ideas and scenes for, and talking to the hero and heroine, is in my Vampires Realm series. I’ve been chatting to Tor and Eve, who will become the hero and heroine in Hunger, which is the next Vampires Realm novel. Tor doesn’t really say much so I have to bleed him dry whenever he risks talking about himself. He’s very closed off and distant, but I’ve managed to get some interesting information out of him regarding his past and his future too. Eve is another talkative heroine. Readers familiar with the Vampires Realm series may already know that she’s: a) Lilith’s twin sister, and a vampire now; b) Has been found by their vampire father; c) Was mentioned as being with Tor in Masquerade. Addicted readers of the series will probably have already read the short scene I wrote as a flash fiction (a scene under 1000 words) with Lincoln and Tor. I really think that readers are going to love Tor. He’s damaged goods, a lone hunter for his bloodline, has serious darkness in his past, and is treated worse than a dog (or a werewolf) by most vampires in his bloodline. He’s loyal, strong, lethal, and as likely to kill you as he is look at you. I can easily see him stealing some hearts during his book.

I will hopefully start writing Bewitch next week once I have the outline completed. When I’m done with the first draft of that book, I will probably start writing Snow’s book, Unleash, or will at least plan it before I edit another book.

Are we all excited about the books I’ll be working on next?

Her Demonic Angel (Her Angel Romance Series Book 5) – Second Chapter Excerpt!

Posted on 11th September 2012 by Felicity Heaton

With the release of Her Demonic Angel, the fifth book in my Her Angel romance series, happening very soon, I thought I would lure you all in with a moment in the hero’s head.

The hero in this one is Veiron. If you’ve read Her Guardian Angel, then you’ll probably remember the scarlet-haired Hell’s angel with a heck of an attitude. Now you get to know him, and I’m sure he’ll probably end up surprising a lot of you!

Now, on to the second chapter of Her Demonic Angel. Enjoy!

Her Demonic Angel (Her Angel Romance Series Book 5) – First Chapter Excerpt!

Posted on 8th September 2012 by Felicity Heaton

With the release of Her Demonic Angel, the fifth book in my Her Angel romance series, next weekend (September 15th), I thought it was about time that I shared an excerpt from the book with everyone.

Now, on to the first chapter of Her Demonic Angel. Enjoy!

Guardians of Hades Book One Complete in First Draft

Posted on 7th September 2012 by Felicity Heaton

I’m very excited to announce that I finished the first draft of the very first book in the Guardians of Hades series today. I had two chapters to write, one of which was a nice big fight scene. You know I love to write fight scenes! I completed that this morning and then took a break before writing the final chapter which wrapped up everything in the book. The book ended up being 107,000 words in total, and I expect it to expand and shrink throughout the editing process. I am exhausted now, both physically and mentally. It’s always amazing how mentally taxing writing a book can be, and how quickly you can get exhausted when writing. I think I need a break now, so it’s good that my next project is proofreading Her Demonic Angel so it’s ready for release next weekend.

My word count for the year has risen nicely thanks to this first Guardians of Hades book. It now stands at 339,500 words written since January 2012, and means that I’m 60,500 words shy of my target of 400,000 words and it’s only just September. I’ll easily cover those and more when writing Bewitch and Unleash in the VET series. It’s exciting to see so many words have flowed from my fingers this year. I seem to go in cycles of writing years and editing years. Last year was definitely an editing year. This year is very much a writing year as I’ll be getting books done in first draft that will come out next year.

I’m really pleased with this first book in the Guardians of Hades series though, and I’ll be sharing a few more snippets with you over the coming months to give you all a better taste of the book and give you an idea what to expect from the series as a whole. I hope you’ll all like it. It’s my usual brand of passionate paranormal romance packed with emotional intensity, action and intrigue, and some big shiny twists!

Now, I had better get working on Her Demonic Angel or it won’t be ready in time for next Saturday! I don’t think you’d like it to end up delayed, would you?

Once I’m done with proofreading Her Demonic Angel, I’ll be planning Bewitch and Unleash, and then writing Bewitch. I’m looking forward to delving back into the Vampire Erotic Theatre series and learning more about Payne.

Guardians of Hades book one – Sneak peek excerpt!

Posted on 5th September 2012 by Felicity Heaton

In yesterday’s post about Guardians of Hades, I asked if you would like to read a super sneak peek excerpt of the book, and it got a few comments, so I grabbed the first 1000 words of the book to share with you. Here’s an update on my progress with the book first. I wrote 10,000 words today and we passed the 100,000 word mark. How awesome is that? I was really excited when I saw that figure at the bottom of my screen when writing. It felt like a real achievement. I have another couple of chapters to write and then the book is finished in first draft. Strange how it’s gone from seeming as though I would never get it finished to suddenly almost done!

I had a great time writing today. It started out with a rather unconventional love scene and then the hero’s parents made an appearance due to something he said to his heroine. Since I’ll be sharing an excerpt, I’ll tell you now that the hero is called Ares. No, he’s not the god of war, but he’s named for him and that particular god has an interest in his life. He is a god in his own right though, the second eldest son of Hades and Persephone. It was fun writing Hades for the first time today and introducing him. He can’t leave the Underworld, so he only appeared at a distance and basically set the heroine, Megan, on edge. She met his mum though. I really enjoy writing Persephone. She’s all light to Hades’ darkness, but at the same time she’s got a dark side of her own. She’s not the sort of woman you mess with, and you certainly commit to her sons when you steal their hearts or face the dire consequences.

You’ll probably pick up on another of the heroes in this series’ names in the following sneak peek at the book. I’ll have the book wrapped up by the end of the week, which is great as I need to do the final proofread for Her Demonic Angel.

Anyway, I’m sure you’ve all skipped this to hit the goodies, and I hope you’ll leave a comment with any questions or feedback about the excerpt! Don’t be shy now. Oh, and forgive any mishaps and terrible writing. This is straight from the first draft so it’ll improve exponentially during edits!

New Blog and Update on Guardians of Hades

Posted on 4th September 2012 by Felicity Heaton

I’ve moved over to a new blog, integrated into my website. You can still all follow the blog via FeedBurner or Networked Blogs, exactly the same as you could when my blog was with Blogger. My blog now runs off WordPress.org so it will take me a while to get used to the new platform, and get everything the way I like it.

You may notice that there’s a lack of comments on the blog right now. All of my old posts and their comments are here, but I’m integrating Disqus into my new blog and they’re currently processing several thousand comments I exported from this blog. Wow, that’s a lot of comments!

Please feel free to let me know if you find anything that is behaving wrongly, any hiccups you might encounter, or features my old blog had and this one lacks! I’d love some feedback. There are still a few styling issues that I want to smooth out, but other than that I think the switch over has gone quite smoothly so far. Now I just have to update all those ebook files, and everything else where my old blog address appears. The good news is that the old blog will now forward to the new blog, so people will still be able to find me!

On to an update for Guardians of Hades.

See, you still get the sexy pictures here at the new blog… yummy.

I’ve been working on and off on the first Guardians of Hades book this past week. I hit a bump in the road because I started reading a book on marketing / publicity as I wanted to see if I could find new ways to engage readers and increase my reach, and I’ve been thinking about websites and, of course, installing this new blog on my own website. All of this disengaged my writing brain and engaged my marketing and design brain, and I was left somewhat adrift. I have managed to get some more work done on the book though, and it’s coming along nicely now. I am up to 90,000 words as of this afternoon, and I wrote 8600 words today, starting the morning on a love scene and ending in the lead up to another. What can I say? The hero and heroine have got over their problems and are getting along very nicely now.

I’m heading for the race to the finish line now though. I think I have another 5 or 6 chapters to write, and that’s around 20-24,000 words, so the book will come out around my estimated 110,000 words. I want to get it wrapped up this week, but that might be asking too much. Unfortunately, if it tries to overrun, then I’ll have to set it aside or try to finish it while proofing Her Demonic Angel at the same time. That isn’t the sort of stressful life that I need, so I’m really hoping that I’ll get it done and then I can focus on proofing Her Demonic Angel.

I’m gasping to share snippets of the Guardians of Hades book with you so you can all get a taste of the series, but I don’t think it’s in any shape for a public outing right now. Maybe soon, when I have some spare time, I can read part of it over for any mishaps and share it with you.

Would you like to read a snippet from the first Guardians of Hades book?

New paranormal romance books and science fiction romance books now available on Apple iBooks

Posted on 29th August 2012 by Felicity Heaton

I’ve managed to migrate more of my books over from Smashwords to Apple iTunes Connect. Again, there wasn’t too much of a gap between when these disappeared from Apple and when they reappeared again. I had a bit of a problem with Crave, but I solved that.

All of my paranormal romance books are now over, so I’m working on moving my science fiction romance books over now. I have moved over the Sons of Lyra series, and I’ll do the Daughters of Lyra series in one hit next.

The German version of Covet, entitled Begehren, is also available now on Apple iBooks, but only in seven stores – including the big four and the German speaking countries of Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Guardians of Hades – Progress update on my paranormal romance WIP

Posted on 28th August 2012 by Felicity Heaton

It’s been over a week since I last blogged about my progress on the first book in the Guardians of Hades series. I’ve been working hard on it since then, and it’s now up to 64000 words. That’s a little over half of the book written in first draft.

I’m not really feeling it today though, and wasn’t yesterday. I think my writing schedule is causing me a headache and has made me stutter a little. My flow has stopped for the moment. Now I have to do something to get it back again, and while I do that, I need to keep on top of things.

I don’t think it’s helping that I’m stuck in my house today. I don’t mind writing at home, but it’s full of distractions, which is why I prefer to head out to a cafe when I need to get a serious amount of words on screen in every writing session. I’m a good writer though, so I always have a plan. Yes, I’m not feeling the writing bug right now, but that doesn’t mean I can kick back and do nothing, allowing my schedule to get totally out of hand. I’m experienced enough to know there is no point in forcing myself to write when I don’t feel like it. That means I have only one real option. I get all the promotion stuff, admin work, emailing, arranging of dates for a huge promotion run for Her Demonic Angel, etc done and off my list. This means that I’m effectively exchanging time I had set aside for that stuff in the rest of the week for time I can then use to write when the bug comes back and firmly bites me. Clever, eh?

I think my lack of interest in writing today may also have something to do with the fact that I didn’t get any done yesterday. I was stuck in admin hell, getting more books up onto Apple and a lot of other stuff that needed my attention. I had thought I could do it quickly (don’t we always?), but I woke up feeling under the weather with a bad throat, and that sort of slowed me down.

But still, on a more positive note, the book is coming along nicely and I think it’s turning out pretty good. I’m getting a shiny editor for it because I’m intent on this one turning out as nothing but terrific and I’ve recently become obsessed with a freelancing site that I’ve found really wonderful people on (the people who translated Covet into German for me). I think it will be nice to work with an editor for a change and I’m interested to see how much time it frees up for me. I still have to edit the book before I then give it to an editor, but I’m hoping it might cut some time out of my schedule. That means I can write more. Yay!

Now I need to crack on and get everything on my list for the week done and I can hopefully end the week back on schedule with this novel!
