Hello everyone and welcome to RomFan Reviews. Today we get to chat with Tes Hilaire, author of the paranormal
romance books Deliver Me from Darkness
and Deliver Me from Temptation, both
part of the Paladin Warriors series.
Tes, thanks so much for stopping by today. Let’s start by talking about your new
release, Deliver Me from Temptation,
which just came out December 4. Can you
tell us a little bit about the book?
Deliver Me from Temptation is the second novel in my Paladin
Warriors series. We met Logan, the last full-blooded Paladin and jaded warrior,
in book one but it’s not until this second installment that we really get to
understand what makes him tick. Like…
say… a certain stubborn, female cop? ;-)
Be sure to check out the blurb below for more!
That sounds great. And I
say that because I’ve read the book, and you can find the review here http://tinyurl.com/b9e2bzs For those interested in you and your works,
where can they go to learn more?
They should definitely check
out my website, www.teshilaire.com, I
have tons of new goodies this month including a Christmas Short that is kind of
like an epilogue for book two (Warning! Spoilers!) I am also going to have a
meet the characters page going up soon and some great contests running through
the New Year! Beyond that they can find
me on facebook.com/TesHilaireAuthor or twitter @teshilaire.
Remember to bookmark those, folks.
And now, I’m going to do something a little different. I usually do a standard Q&A, but I’m
getting bored with those. Instead, I’m
going to do something I hope you all will find a bit more fun. So without further ado, it’s 20 Questions!
1.
Coffee or Tea?
Coffee… unless it’s Chi, in which
case I’ll trade up for that.
2.
Coke or Pepsi?
Pepsi
3.
Pirates or Ninjas?
Oh! Depends on the mood… I’m going
for Ninjas as I suspect they have more opportunity for bathing.
4.
Beer or wine?
Wine
5.
Muffins or Cupcakes?
Can I pick both? LOL! Okay… a good
chocolate and banana muffin.
6.
Computer or Television?
Computer… simply because I don’t
have the time for TV!
7.
Would you travel the world or travel space?
The world…I’m a huge fan of texture
and color.
8.
My favorite pizza is…
Bacon and Tomato
9.
My favorite book genre is…
Urban Fantasy with a heavy PNR twist
10.
My superpower of choice would be…
Temporal manipulation… I need more
time!
11.
On a rainy day, you’ll find me…
Reading a book…or chained to my
keyboard.
12.
When I get free time, I’ll...
Read more books! And take my kids to
something fun.
13.
If you had a million dollars…
I’d invest half and then I’d buy
books for programs like Literacy for Life!
14.
My dream vacation would be…
A secluded tropical island with the
kids (nicely) playing on the beach, my hubby in the chair next to me, a cold
fruity drink, and as many books as I could read.
15. If
you could be a character in any novel you’ve ever read, who would you be and
why?
Gut instinct was Mercedes from
Patricia Brigg’s UF series, but then I thought about all the trouble she lands
herself in, and then I thought about my other favorite heroines and the spots
they tend to land in… Um, no. I think I’ll stick with reality, thank you!
16.
How many books do you read each year?
Less than I used to but too many to
easily count ;-)
17.
If you could pick a book to turn into a movie,
which one would it be? At the moment I’d go with Karen
Marie Monings Fae Fever series…but I’m not sure they could do it justice so
I’ll probably stick with re-reading it instead.
18.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where
would you live?
I’m really liking where I am now in
Charlotte, NC (it was 70 degrees last week! Oh My!), but I’d also love to live
in Estes Park, CO and I’ve always wanted to check out Australia, France, and
Italy.
19.
Which store would you choose to max out your
credit card?
Either Barnes & Noble or
Homegoods :-)
20.
What are you reading right now?
Nothing! I’m in book
deprivation! It’s awful! Though I’m
really hoping Santa gets me at least some of the books on my ten mile long
list. :-D
How about you readers… What book are you currently reading? I need to make my list longer ;-)

DELIVER
ME FROM TEMPTATION BY TES HILIARE – IN STORES DECEMBER 2012
Logan Screwed
Up...Big Time
When things go bump in the night, Logan bumps back.
Vampires, demons, succubi—you name it, he's fought it. His job as Paladin angel
warrior is to protect humans. Not fall for one.
She Never Believed
in Divine Intervention...Until Now
Detective Jessica Waters protects humans too-with her
Glock and a good set of handcuffs. She doesn't believe in fate. But if anyone
looks like a gift from the gods, it's Logan. And he clearly knows more about
her case than he's letting on...

ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays
PicardsMom at yahoo dot com
Thanks! I hope you love it :-) Thanks for saying HI!
DeleteLoved the interview Tes, I must agree with you about sticking with reality... My initial thought was I'd love to be Gin Blanco (Jennifer Estep's Elemental Assassin series) for a day then I remembered how often she gets hurt. Hmmm, no thanks ;)
ReplyDeleteThere are so many good books! Right now I have Survivor in Death by JD Robb on my kindle, Deadly Sting by Jennifer Estep on my kindle fire and Prince of Power by Elisabeth Staab in paperback and I can't decide which to read! Too many good ones to choose from (which is my favourite complaint).
No email cause I'm Interntional - just stopped by to say Hi
Michelle,
DeleteOh... read Prince of Power for me! I'm holding out until I see Elisabeth Staab at Olde City New Blood to get a signed copy so you must read it for me and tell me how awesome it is ;-)
Thanks for stopping in!
Sounds like a plan! I'll let you know how it is :)
DeleteCongratulations Tes. Sounds like a great read. And I love the cover. Do you have any say in the cover selections?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway opportunity.

Sandy - I'm sure if I was really against a cover for a valid reason Sourcebooks would go well out of their way to work with me. That said they probably know better than I what works in the PNR market AND I've been blessed with fabulous covers done by the wonderful Pickyme (and that one really is a smokin cover isn't it? Oh la la)
DeleteI like the 20 question format and interview.
ReplyDeletebn100candg(at)hotmail(dot)com
it was fun, wasn't it? I think I want all my author interviews to be this way! LOL! :-D
