Today on Original Sin Character Week, the new kids: Matt and Lili

PD spoiler alert!! If you haven’t read Personal Demons, and you don’t want to spoil, skip this post and check in Monday for the full Original Sin playlist! :p

If you've followed the Original Sin Teasers for the last few months, you've met both Matt and Lili.

Matt is Frannie’s guardian angel. He’s also her dead twin brother. When Gabe assigns him as Frannie’s guardian, he can’t believe his luck. He isn’t proud of how he treated her in life, and being seven was no excuse. How many people get the opportunity to make amends with their twin from the other side? He takes his job very seriously. He knows what’s at stake and who’s after Frannie. He won’t let anything happen to her.

But, he finds things aren’t as simple as he might have hoped. When he sees what he’s missing—a pat on the back from Grandpa, a best friend to give him a hard time, his first kiss from his first girlfriend—he finds he hasn’t left human emotion behind.

And, there are temptations on Earth…

Lili is the new girl in Luc's apartment building. She’s painfully shy—a wounded soul—and Frannie takes her under her wing. She introduces her to Taylor and Riley hoping she’ll make friends and come out of her shell.

And does she ever…

Original Sin Character Week: Who wants to be Frannie!

What can I say about Frannie? She learned a lot about herself in Personal Demons, and in Original Sin she continues to grow as a person. She finds out that things (and people) aren't always what they seem. And she starts to unravel some of her family secrets.

She’s still struggling with her feelings toward a certain two boys. Luc is her heart and soul, but Gabe is her anchor. But, she also knows she can't rely on the boys to save her. It's up to her to master her special power and protect herself, and all of humanity, from Hell.




What she finds out is that she underestimated how badly King Lucifer wants her. Hell will stop at nothing to get their hands on her. No one is safe. Everyone she loves is in danger...and not everyone is what they seem.

Things don't go smoothly for Frannie in Original Sin and, once again, she loses someone she loves. The song that inspired her character is How to Save a Life by The Fray. Once again, if you love it, please buy it.

Original Sin Character Week: No one told Gabe that angels aren't supposed to be hot!

One week from today, Original Sin will be on shelves. I have to be honest at tell you that scares the snot out of me. Original Sin is very dark and twisty and I hope you love it. It's the story as Luc, Frannie, Gabe, Matt, Lili and Taylor gave it to me and there were times I was screaming at them. So far the reviews have been positive, so thank you all for your kind words.

Also, thanks to everyone who stopped by yesterday and got up close and personal with Luc. It's Original Sin Character Week, and today we get into Gabe's head.

Gabe has one goal: to keep Hell from getting their hands on Frannie. It's his only purpose, and he's willing to do whatever it takes. Because Frannie possesses a unique skill set that has King Lucifer tingling with anticipation, and, if Hell tags her, it would mean the end of Heaven—and therefore Earth—as we know it.

But, being around Frannie is tricky. Because, somewhere along the way, things changed. What was just a job turned personal. He finds himself being drawn in—wanting her in ways he shouldn’t. But if he goes too far—far enough to lose his wings—he can’t protect Frannie and he’s useless to her. So, the question is, how far is too far?

Gabe has never before found himself in the position of questioning his purpose. But, with Frannie, the lines between duty and desire blur, and he struggles with basic questions of love and loyalty. He vows to always be there for her, no matter what, but what if keeping that promise means risking everything?

The song that most embodies Gabe's struggle in Original Sin is Anthem of the Angels by Breaking Benjamin. As always, if you love it, please visit your chosen mode of music purchase and buy it. Enjoy!

The Hotness that is Luc on Original Sin Character Week!

We're one week and counting from Original Sin release! ONE WEEK!!! *faints* So, as promised, I'm kicking off Original Sin Character Week with my beautiful boys, starting with Luc.

Luc is a demon’s demon. He worked in Acquisitions for Hell and had spent five millennia using every tool at his disposal to tempt teenagers down the fiery path. Frannie was just one more soul. Nothing special. But, from nearly the moment they meet, she made him feel things. And she changed him in ways he never could have imagined.



Now, he's chosen sides, and King Lucifer isn't happy about his defection. Which means Frannie is in even more danger just for being with him. It also means "happily ever after" for Frannie and Luc is pretty much out of the question.

Unfortunately for Luc, the song that embodies his torment in this book is World So Cold by Three Days Grace. If you love it, please visit your chosen mode of music purchase and buy it.

The VERY LAST Original Sin Teaser and Original Sin Character Week!

If you check the ticker in the sidebar, you'll see that it says the release of Original Sin is JUST AROUND THE CORNER! So, to celebrate, next week with be Original Sin Character Week! We'll get up close and personal with the characters, starting with the ones we know and love, my beautifully conflicted boys, Luc and Gabe. Then we'll check in with my seriously kick-ass, but very confused Frannie. We’ll also meet some new characters, Matt, Lili and the assortment of demons who are making it their mission to see that Frannie and Luc don't get their "happily ever after." We’ll get into the character's heads a little to see what motivates them—and what haunts them.

Here's the line up:
Monday: The Original Sin Book Trailer Debut!
Tuesday: Luc
Wednesday: Gabe
Thursday: Frannie
Friday: Matt and Lili
Monday: Rhenorian and Marchosias

Because I really want every reader to make my characters their own, I hadn't planned to include pictures. But then I was threatened with death by a certain few blog lurkers, who shall remain nameless, if I didn't. So...I have include pictures of what my characters look like (to me), their songs and their trailers.

And, because I love to interact with all my totally cool friends in the blogosphere, I'll also answer (spoiler free) questions about the characters in the comments section of their posts.

And, now for the VERY LAST Original Sin teaser! I'm not even going to tell you who's POV it's from, cuz I'm evil like that. I'm jsut going to let this one speak for itself...

#OriginalSin p357 I look down at the blood starting to pool on the ground at her side. She coughs and blood spews from her mouth.

Stay tuned for the debut of the Original Sin book trailer and Character week. =)
