My Q&A with the main characters from "Love Beyond Sight" :
Hi, today I am here with Eden and Samuel from "Love Beyond Sight." Thanks so much for being here with me today.
Samuel : Thanks for having us. (Looking at Eden) Do we really have to do this? We’re a little busy.
Eden : Just a few minutes. (Patting him on the arm.) You’ll survive a little exposure.
So, let me see if I have this straight. You two are involved in an epic battle that has been going for generations.
Samuel : We’re members of a group called The Outsiders...oh wait, I shouldn’t have told you that. Please forget I used that word.
Eden : Let’s just say there is a lot at stake and we are deeply involved in the current situation.
I’m hearing stories about problems in New Orleans. Lots of explosions...
Samuel : New Orleans has been the home base for a lot of problems.
Eden : We’re hopeful we’ve gotten that under control now. But every time we think we’ve accomplished something another problem pops up.
How did you two meet?
Eden : Well, we’re soul mates but it’s complicated.
How so?
Samuel : Circumstances have prevented us from actually seeing each other.
You’re telling me that you’ve never seen each other. How can there be love without sight?
Eden : This is a paramount problem in our life. One way or another, Samuel and I have been prevented from really looking at each other’s faces for a long time.
Wow. Hope that works out for you two.
Samuel : (rolling his eyes) Thanks for that. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a demon to go hunt down.
Eden : Samuel! We’re not supposed to talk about that.
Samuel : Damn it.
About the Author :
As a teenager, Rebecca Royce would hide in her room to read her favorite romance novels when she was supposed to be doing her homework. She hopes, these days, that her parents think it was well worth it.Rebecca is the mother of three adorable boys and is fortunate to be married to her best friend. They live in northern New Jersey and try not to freeze too badly during the winter months.
She's in love with science fiction, fantasy, and the paranormal and tries to use all of these elements in her writing. She's been told she's a little bloodthirsty so she hopes that when you read her work you'll enjoy the action packed ride that always ends in romance. Rebecca loves to write series because she loves to see characters develop over time and it always makes her happy to see her favorite characters make guest appearances in other books.
In Rebecca Royce's world anything is possible, anything can happen, and you should suspect that it will.
Author's Book Description :- In "Love Beyond Sanity," Eden Roan awoke in a mental hospital, unsure of how she got there. Nearly discovered by a demon, she is rescued by a voice in her mind who saves her life by transforming her figure into something the demon doesn't want to look at. The voice tells her she is his but that they will never, ever meet. As time progresses, Eden becomes more and more convinced that the voice is just her imagination playing tricks on her. It can't possibly be her destined soul mate. Or can it?
Samuel Quinn was horribly disfigured by the demon when he was a child. He can't stand looking at himself and does not want Eden to see him. Luckily, his powers allow him to hide himself using other people's features as his own. But when Eden needs him, Samuel will have to step forward to save her even if he can never let her see the real him.
Can there be love without sight? Or will the demon finally have them all just where he wants them?
My Previous Review(s) for this Series : Book 3
Book Excerpt :
After he’d put the car back where he’d stolen it from, checking to see if there was any evidence that owner had noticed that lack of the car and finding none, he hoofed it back to his apartment complex. Even though he knew how to dress properly for the cold, by the time he got home he felt frozen to his core. The cold air had helped his burning skin to relax for a while. Maybe he could get one more day out of his new features.
Maybe.
He unlocked the door and hadn’t stepped inside more than an inch when the first blow struck him on the side of the head. He saw stars as he hit the ground. What the hell? He could hardly think. Shit. What had hit him?
Using force of will alone, barely managed to roll to the side before the next whack nearly struck him again. A streak of strawberry-blond flew by his eyes.
“Eden?”
He heard a gasp. “How do you know who I am?”
Samuel managed to open one eye long enough to see she stood above him holding a chair leg over her head. She looked fierce and stunning like some kind of warrior goddess taking down her prey. Hell, she’d broken his chair.
“I know you. It’s hard to explain.” Or maybe it wasn’t but he couldn’t be sure. His head felt heavy and he couldn’t make sense of much. Everything looked sort of blurry.
“Your voice.” Eden’s lovely face came into focus for a moment before it blurred out again. Her eyes furrowed as she tried to make sense of things. He didn’t blame her. This whole thing was damn confusing.
“I know your voice.”
He tried to nod and had to close his eyes. Wow, she’d really gotten him. “Yes, you do.”

DeleteTHank you for having me. This character interview was so fun to do!
ReplyDeleteI love character interviews. I'm always suprised when authors say that they have all of this extra info about characters--that doesn't make it into a book...Things like birthdate, favorite car, favorite color, favorite song, etc.

thank you rebecca for writing a book on how physical appearances doesnt mean everything! i m in high school and had previously a car accident that left my left hand scarred badly, i can relate with sameul of how people judge appearances very quickly, i have grown to appreciate my scar as the journey i went through, but still people are quite shallow in thinking that a scar is the most hideous thing.
ReplyDeleteso again thank you for writing about such an important subject that must be discussed among more people!!!
