 <\/p>\n

I’ve just completed the first draft of Snow’s book, Unleash<\/strong> (Vampire Erotic Theatre romance series<\/strong><\/a> book 6). It ended at close to 94,000 words and I think it might grow a little during the edits. For now, I’m setting it aside to work on a series proposal (more about that next week) and planning the next Her Angel<\/strong><\/a> series novel.<\/p>\n

To celebrate completeing the first draft of Unleash<\/strong>, I decided to write some tour posts for the Vampirerotique Winter Book Tour<\/strong> that kicks off next week. I’m doing something different this time, and each post is a labour of love, and takes me a while to write, so I need to get ahead of myself to keep on top of then.<\/p>\n

But as I was working on them, a song came on my iPod that was utterly perfect for Snow, and his heroine. It immediately made me think of them and I just had to share it in this post.<\/p>\n

The song in question is Holding On To Heaven<\/strong> by Nickelback, and it goes a bit like this…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

I keep listening to my chest<\/em>
\n For a beat but there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nothing left<\/em>
\n It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been a week since I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen you<\/em>
\n And I still can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t believe it<\/em>
\n ‘Cause I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m dying inside alone<\/em>
\n And every day we gotta be apart<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m like a baby with a broken heart<\/em>
\n But the second that I’ll see you<\/em>
\n You will know how much I need you<\/em>
\n Because I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll never be letting you go<\/em>
\n (Well you know I…)<\/em><\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m lost without you<\/em>
\n And there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nothing I can do<\/em>
\n You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re the one I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go without<\/em>
\n If I ain’t holding on to you then I’ll be holding out forever<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got you now and<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not letting go of you<\/em>
\n Never be together long enough<\/em>
\n ‘Cause every moment I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m with you<\/em>
\n It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s like I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m holding on to heaven<\/em><\/p>\n

And if forever never comes then I<\/em>
\n And if forever never comes then I<\/em>
\n And if forever never comes then I<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll hold on, hold on<\/em><\/p>\n

And if I could write a symphony<\/em>
\n Then baby you would be my melody<\/em>
\n And you would flow like a river<\/em>
\n Slowly going on forever<\/em>
\n Like a feather that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s blowing away<\/em>
\n Like everyone that needs a fairytale<\/em>
\n Like every mother\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s love that never fails<\/em>
\n Like every game that needs a player<\/em>
\n Every sinner needs a savior<\/em>
\n I’m the villain you’re willing to save<\/em>
\n Now you know why<\/em><\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m lost without you<\/em>
\n And there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nothing I can do<\/em>
\n You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re the one I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go without<\/em>
\n If I ain’t holding on to you then I’ll be holding out forever<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got you now and<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not letting go of you<\/em>
\n Never be together long enough<\/em>
\n ‘Cause every moment I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m with you<\/em>
\n It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s like I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m holding on to heaven<\/em><\/p>\n

And I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m willing to wait<\/em>
\n Just to see you another day<\/em>
\n What I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m waiting for<\/em>
\n Will wash this pain away<\/em>
\n And it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s never too late<\/em>
\n (Never too late…)<\/em><\/p>\n

And if forever never comes then I<\/em>
\n And if forever never comes then I<\/em>
\n And if forever never comes then I<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll hold on and hold on<\/em>
\n Now you know why<\/em><\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m lost without you<\/em>
\n And there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nothing I can do<\/em>
\n You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re the one I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go without<\/em>
\n If I ain’t holding on to you then I’ll be holding out forever<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got you now and<\/em>
\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not letting go of you<\/em>
\n Never be together long enough<\/em>
\n ‘Cause every moment I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m with you<\/em>
\n It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s like I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m holding on to heaven<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Oh, heavens, that song is SO perfect for them! I can’t wait for you to see why when the book comes out… this song was made for them.<\/p>\n
