"Dark Seraphine" by KaSonndra Leigh {Review/Character Interviews/Giveaway - Ends 12/20}



Synopsis: 


"Mom always says the angels walk among
us. She forgot to tell me that sometimes they're not all fluffy and nice."


Seventeen-year-old Caleb Wood has seen people he calls the walkers since he was a baby. It didn't take long for him to realize something…no one can see these strangers but him. They never stuck around or tried to touch him. And they never said a word. That was until one day on the first day of class in his senior year when an incredibly gorgeous girl strolls into his life…and things are never the same again.

Soon Caleb realizes he has stepped into the middle of a growing conflict between two ancient groups. And his ability to see the invisible ones, the half-breeds that want to modify the human race, just might be the only hope both he and the mysterious, but infuriating Gia have of making it out alive.

Kyle Wilkinson Interview:





What’s your favorite color?
Kyle:  I would say the default color. You know, blue, the one that all guys like to say. But I like purple. Don’t be laughing at me either. There’s nothing wrong with liking purple. It was the color that kings wore back in the day, remember?

What type of vehicle do you drive?
Kyle:  A black Mustang. I have a picture of it if you wanna see it. I just bought a set of sweet black rims to go along with it.

Describe yourself to me.
Kyle:  Tall, dark and handsome of course. **dimple grin**

How would your mate describe you?
Kyle:  Smooth, sexy, and someone who really knows how to make her go…eh-em. Okay. Let me be serious. She’d probably say I was a little annoying, but loyal in the end. 

What really moves you, or touches you to the soul?
Kyle:  Aw man. Come on, that’s like a trick question for a dude. Besides, I’m only 16. I don’t think you really wanna hear about what touches my soul. **waggles his eyebrows**

What's the one thing you have always wanted to do but couldn't? What would happen if you did do it?
Kyle:  You’re killing me with these questions. But this is a whole lot better than that soul question. I want to bungie jump. But not just a regular jump, nah. I want to do something crazy like bounce off the Empire State Building. Two guesses on what’ll happen after I do that, right? **umm, yeah**

Describe your ideal mate.
Kyle:  Gorgeous, long-legged. I got this thing for redheads, but my girlfriend is hardly that. I guess you wanna hear about something deeper than looks, huh? Umm, hm. Well, she needs to be smart. My girl, Shani, is super smart. She’s going to be an English professor and that’s about as smart as it gets, right? 

What are you most afraid of?
Kyle:  Mice. Don’t even ask. What guy isn’t?

What's the most important thing in your life?
Kyle:  Aw, come on. Didn’t you see my excellent answer to that ideal mate question?

What do you consider your special talent?
Kyle:  My K-9 treatments. You’re probably saying: “What the freak is that?” Right? It’s advice that I give my closest friends. You know, that embarrassing kinda stuff you wouldn’t tell a flea? That would be what those are. 

How did you meet the hero/heroine?
Kyle:  Hey! As far as I’m concerned, I am the hero of this story. But Caleb might feel differently. He did save me from that thing in the water. Man, it was something that looked like a little kid with shark teeth. Freaky!

Was it love at first sight or did it develop slowly?
Kyle:  Again, I’m only 16. So, I’m not sure that I believe in all of that love stuff yet.

What did you like/dislike about him/her when you first met?
Kyle:  I disliked everything about Caleb. He can be a real smart a**. Sorry, didn’t mean to curse. But he’s cool no, though. Besides, he’s too love-struck to act any other way. **dimple grins again**

If you were granted three wishes, what would you ask for?
Kyle:  Three meals a day, a mint collection of surf boards, and another thing that I just won’t even mention on here, okay? :D

Thanks so much for stopping by today Kyle. You seem like a really fun person.
Kyle: And thanks to you for having me on your blog today. I’ll come back and chat anytime you like. You can check out some pictures of my boards here: http://pinterest.com/alestasia/dark-seraphine/

Paige Interview





What’s your favorite color?
Paige:  Black. What other color exists? Well, maybe red should be given some credit too.

What type of vehicle do you drive?
Paige:  I don’t drive. I use another method of traveling. Next question please.

Describe yourself to me.
Paige:  **sighs deeply and looks bored**  Gothic, impatient, smart, crafty, the list could go on forever. And I don’t wanna bore everybody to death. 

How would your mate describe you?
Paige:  The last mate that I had cheated on me. So he’s floating around somewhere at the bottom of the sea. **gives me a chilly, evil grin** Moving on time!!

What really moves you, or touches you to the soul?
Paige:  Hm. What a tricky question. Depending on who you ask, they might say that I don’t have one.

What's the one thing you have always wanted to do but couldn't? What would happen if you did do it?
Paige:  To fall in love. And when I did let that happen, it was disappointing. See the question above for what happened to the guilty mate. **beams sweetly at me, as I shudder**

Describe your ideal mate.
Paige:  Is there really such a thing? He’d be flexible and loyal. Or else he’ll be joining the other dude floating around in the ocean. 

What are you most afraid of?
Paige:  Nothing. And everything.

What's the most important thing in your life?
Paige:  My sister.

What do you consider your special talent?
Paige:  Being able to fake patience when I don’t really have much.

How did you meet the hero/heroine?
Paige:  Who do you mean? That Caleb Wood guy? Gah! He’s no hero. He’s just another love sick idiot. Maybe I’ll put him at the bottom of the sea too. But then, he has a pretty strong protector. I’ll think of something. **rubs her chin**

Was it love at first sight or did it develop slowly?
Paige:  It’s always either love or lust at first site. You’re kidding yourself if you think it happens over time. 

If you were granted three wishes, what would you ask for?
Paige:  Power, more power, and all the power. Enough said. **grins and runs her finger along the sheath containing her sword. Yikes!**

Thanks so much for stopping by today Paige. You seem like a really, eh-em, unique person.
Paige: And thanks to you for having me on your blog today. I’ll come back and chat anytime you like. You can check out some pictures of the things I enjoy here: http://pinterest.com/alestasia/the-goth-girl-i-ll-always-be/
