 Whoo hoo! Kat has a new book out and I get the pleasure of introducing The Seer's Lover. Well, right off the bat you know you're in for a good read. After you're done with the blurb read on for my interview with Kat and perhaps some freebies will be in the offing. Book Blurb: For years, Calise Rowe has been able to sense unusual energy from people, making her believe she is different. Pulled into an ancient war raging for centuries between demon hunters and seers, she's about to find out she's right. Her search for the truth leads her to Lucas Rojas, a seer of angels and demons who walk the earth shrouded from normal human eyes. He's hidden his gift for years and refuses to endanger Calise by sharing it with her. In the sultry Costa Rican jungles, their worlds collide. As their passion and desire ignite, so does the ancient war between demons and seers. Will their combined efforts be enough to save themselves and the entire human world, or will their new found love be their downfall? Excerpt: She traced a circle in the sand with her finger. Why would she disclose her whole existence to someone she’d just met? Someone who talked so little about himself that she found herself talking to fill the void. Saying things she could barely admit in her own head. His hand covered hers. “I’m lonely, too. Getting to know you this week has been the brightest point in my life and I don’t want you to leave, but I know the only place you’ll be safe is far away from me.” She swallowed. He had read her mind. He lay down on his back and closed his eyes. “Cali, you know when you hear a song for the first time and you kind of ingest it? You can’t possibly know right away that it will be one of your favorite songs for the rest of your life. A classic.” “Yeah.” She hoped he was going somewhere good with this. “That first listen,” he continued, “you pick up a little of the melody and some lyrics that catch you. But when the song ends, you have to hear it again because you want to memorize all the words and sing along. After you hear it a few times and learn the words inside and out, then you begin to let the melody seep inside you. Next thing you know, you’ve completely digested the song and find yourself humming it while you are doing nothing, like shaving or driving your car. Finally, the song becomes so ingrained it becomes a part of you. Forever. You can recall it and it’s with you whenever you need it. Am I making any sense?” She nodded, blinking back the tears fighting to fall. “Cali, I don’t want you to go back because you’re my favorite song.”  Hi, Kat. Thanks for sharing the blub, it was/is beautiful. Obviously music is a strong force in your life as well as writing. Please share with us the inspiration for The Seer's Lover.
I’ve always loved writing! My high school English teacher helped me feel books instead of read them. The idea for completing a full novel hit me in December 2009, I started typing and haven’t stopped. Inspiration for The Seer’s Lover came from many places: a trip to Costa Rica, a man who came into my pharmacy and said, “They are all around us,” and my twelve years of Catholic school. What is a one-line synopsis for your book? Calise Rowe's question of who walks among us leads her into an ancient war between angels, demons and seers. Is this a stand-alone or part of a series? Part of a SERIES! The Seven Archangels Series to be correct and there will be six more books in this series. I’m working on book two as we speak! Which character other than your MC is one of your favorites to write and why? Shane. Because of the conflicts he has to deal with in this book. If you had to pick a color to describe your MC what would that be and why? As for my heroine, her name is Calise Rowe. Her color would be orange – a balance of yellow for softness and red for power. Who are your favorite authors? William Shakespeare, Bruce Lee, and JR Ward, JRR Tolkien, and Stephen King to name a few of my varied tastes J Can you share a bit about your current project? I am a busy lady. I am shopping my middle grade, working on book 2 of The Seer’s Lover and book 2 of First Contact (I have a ghost series I co-write with Rachel Green). I also need to finish my contemporary romance and my sci-fi! What do you do when you’re not writing? Sleep! What influenced you to write in your genre? Do you write in others? I like another paranormal and anything science based. But a good laugh never hurts J What music, if any, do you like to listen to while writing? Only the addictive renderings of my husband’s compositions…check him out at http://www.bayafaya.com – he even wrote a soundtrack for my book! Do you have anything you’d like to add? As a treat to your readers, I’ll offer a FREE song to anyone who leaves a comment. They can choose between any of the three songs my husband wrote for the book: Song One: Anna's Dance - it is a jazzy bossa nova meant to accompany chapter two. Song Two: Shane's Torment. It is a churning soundscape of despair meant to accompany chapter six. Song Three: Cali and Lucas First Dance is a Latin fusion instrumental love song meant to accompany chapter twelve. Biography Author Kat de Falla was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where she learned to roller skate, ride a banana seat bike, and love Shakespeare thanks to her high school English teacher. Four years at the UW-Madison wasn’t enough, so she returned to her beloved college town for her Doctor of Pharmacy degree and is happily employed as a retail pharmacist where she fills prescriptions and chats with her patients. She is married to her soul mate, classical guitarist, Lee de Falla and raising four kids together ala the Brady Bunch.
