Paranormal and Contemporary Romances

Hi everyone! I decided to do things a little differently this week. Instead of an excerpt from the book, I am sharing a recent Q&A with Silver Dagger Book Tours I had about the story.

La Roe’s Curse
Dee Carver (Author)

Available at:

Blurb 
 
When Emerald La Roe ran away 300 years ago, she had not planned to return. However, after repeated dreams from Goddess Morrigan, Emerald finally realizes she has no choice. Emerald not only finds a magical sword waiting for her, but her dead husband also. It seems Stefan O’ Duff wants’ reconciliation and help to cure the curse they share.
Emerald would rather see him dead than be with him again, she has someone else to consider though. Her new love, Maxwell Howard a werewolf, who through sharing blood with Emerald, now faces the same fate as Emerald and Stefan. For the cure to work, Emerald has to put her hatred of Stefan aside and consent to share his bed again.
Can Emerald put 300 years of anger aside to save them or will she sacrifice all their futures and kill him as she swore to do?

 

What inspired you to write this book? 

Short answer, I dreamed about a dress, so I wrote the description, characters and then scene.

The long answer is that I did dream about a dress, a wedding gown. I wanted to know more about it, …

Author’s Note

 

In last week’s comments, I mentioned giving Stefan a chance to come forward. Since the book is written in 1st POV we have to rely on Emerald reading from Stefan’s journal to get a look inside what he is thinking.

 

 

Stefan was initially the main male of the story but Emerald really does not like him for a large portion of the book. When writing the story I realized that unless something changed Stefan and Emerald were never going to reconcile.

Little did I know that Stefan’s journal would sway one heart, Max, which as we know has caused several changes to occur that shouldn’t have (or so I thought).

Since I hate getting lost while reading a book and this excerpt is combining different portions from several pages, I have decided to add a little bit of author guidance.

In the excerpt below, we start with Stefan’s journal, Morrigan mixing in again and end with Emerald’s acceptance, well to the potential cure anyway.

Excerpt

I heard a wolf howling outside and knew the pain filled noise belonged to him. Grabbing my slippers and the housecoat, I went out to find him.
I finally found him on the cliffs with his head turned toward the moon. His coat was even darker than his jet-black hair. It was so dark even the moon didn’t reflect on it. I had never seen him in his wolf form before, but I knew in my heart …

Why I Cant Stop Reading 

The Good, The Better, The Books.

Review: La Roe’s Curse by Dee Carver – Why I Cant Stop Reading (wordpress.com) 

So I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I was in no way compensate for my opinion. 

So here are my 4 reasons for 4 stars: 

Emerald La Roe is an absolutely amazing character. I love the way she was written, how her story was explained and the way she just basically is. I love the way she dealt with what she was given (which I felt was rather realistically) and I loved how easy she was to get invested in.

Ms Carver is excellent at world building. The way she described the characters, species and world was really well written I got lost in in completely.

Fay’s Wish by Dee Carver

 

Editor & Cover Artist: Cindy Wieczorek 

 

Shayla, Princess of the Fay, must begin the journey to discover her true power by leaving the island. If she’s successful, she will become queen. Her plight won’t be an easy one, for there are those who would use Shayla as a means to solidify their own position of power.

 

Kyle, Shayla’s guide in the human world, is destined to bring hope to the Fay even though his own future seems bleak. With Kyle by her side, miracles can happen, offering the promise of the return of the magic.

 

Once that happens, nothing is impossible.

 

TEASER 

 

As I entered the garden, the smell of succulent roses and jasmine infused me. I continued upon an emerald and ruby path, glinting like a wine-filled goblet. Gliding over pearls and bright quartz, I headed for the waterfalls, the soft lining of moss caressing my feet.

 

My heart faltered. He was human.

 

 

Excerpt

Chapter Six

LEAVING FAY ISLAND

 

I met my father and the others at the gates to our city. He had decided we would be safe leaving by boat. The portal was quick, but there was no guarantee a human would not see.

 

He pointed to a pocket deep inside the small purse I would carry. “I have concealed currency for you, but if there is a need for more, there are accounts set up all through Scotland that you …
