I'll be emailing the winner first thing in the morning! What am I giving away? Read on to find out!
Book 1: Fallen
In
a world full of the sick and dying, the hurting and desperate, and
those lost in darkness, angels dwell. An angel of healing, Amir has
spent centuries performing miracles for people hovering at the very edge
of death.
A professional ballerina, Shayla lives her life to dance. Abandoned by her family, she is alone in the world yet determined to pursue her dream. When a car accident leaves Shayla in critical condition and in danger of never dancing again, it seems that all hope is lost.
Amir enters Shayla’s life intending to heal her, but when he sees her laying in her hospital bed fighting for her life, something unfamiliar resounds within him. A stranger to desire and love, Amir is drawn to Shayla like a moth to a flame despite the fact that the rules of heaven forbid angels to engage inromantic relationships
with mortals. Should he give in to temptation he will become one of the
“Fallen”, demons cursed to the depths of hell for eternity.
As his desire for Shayla rises to fever pitch, Amir will face the choice between love and damnation, or loneliness and divinity. Will an angel who has roamed the earth alone for centuries choose tocontinue on the path of righteousness, or will he fall captive to his burning desires and be forever damned?

Book 2: Tempted
In a world full of the sick and dying, the hurting and
desperate, and those lost in darkness, angels dwell. Messenger angel Sarah is
focused, dedicated to the cause of heaven in the war against hell. For
centuries she has watched other angels succumb to temptation and break the
rules governing relationships between angels and humans. Sarah has vowed to
never become one of the ‘Fallen’ angels, now demons cursed to wander the depths
of hell for eternity. She knows that she is stronger than the others, incapable
of emotional attachment and the feelings of love and desire that can be so
dangerous to her kind.
Jackson Bennett is alone in the world, and he prefers it
that way. The former Army sergeant has seen more death than any human ought to
experience in one lifetime. Even his dreams are haunted by the faces of those who
have lost their lives because of him. He feels lost, purposeless, until an
encounter with an angel reveals the secret purpose that he was made for. Born
of a superior race of humans, Jackson learns of a special assignment. Should he
accept, he will become an important part of world that exists between heaven,
hell, and earth. After all that he has been through, Jackson doesn’t know if he’s
ready to take on such a heavy responsibility; what he does know is that he
could lose himself in the eyes of Sarah, the intriguing angel assigned to him. She
is the only person who seems to understand the darkness and pain that have
enveloped his heart; she is the only person capable of driving them away.
In a battle between love or loneliness, divinity or
damnation, Sarah’s choice once seemed easy. What she finds is that the black
and white lines that once defined her world are now impossibly blurred and
gray. What she finds is that she may not be not quite as strong as she thought.

Well, that does it for my first post of the day! I'm so excited about the release of book 2 'Tempted'. Fallen was originally supposed to be a stand-alone book, but the world I'd opened in my mind sucked me in and the characters there begged me to tell their stories!
Today I'll be randomly selecting on lucky commenter to receive a free copy of BOTH books in the series! Be sure to leave your email address so that I can contact you if you win. And of course, check back here later for some awesome excerpts from both books!
