To celebrate the countdown to my new release, the first book in the Living in Eden series, THE DEMON IN ME, I’m blogging every day (yeah, I know I’m not doing so well so far. It was a lovely fantasy while it lasted – sigh) — and some days I have fabulous guests and prizes!

teglia_wickedhotToday it’s fabulously talented author of smokin’ sexy reads, Charlene Teglia. Charlene’s generously giving away a signed copy of her books Wicked Hot and Claimed by the Wolf, one each to two randomly selected commenters (US only please). Winner will be chosen Friday, April 16th at 9:00 p.m. EST. Good luck!

What inspired you to write about demons?

Demons are fascinating! The ultimate monster in the closet, the mysterious unknown.

Demons — shades of gray or always evil?

Shades of gray. In Wicked Hot, the heroine is a demon (succubus) but not exactly evil. In the Shadow Guardians (Claimed by the Wolf, Kiss of the Demon), there are evil demons and good demons; Abaran is a demon and one of the good guys, but his intrinsic demon nature makes him a wonderfully dark hero.

claimed-btwWhat’s your demonically awesome book about?

Wicked Hot: A succubus is sent to tempt the world’s only two Nephilim, half-human/half fallen angels, who may be humanity’s hope or a force mankind can’t stand against.

Shadow Guardians: In Claimed by the Wolf, a witch finds a grimoire full of demon magic that can end the world unless she grows powerful enough to control it. In Kiss of the Demon, hungry ghosts prey on humanity until a psychic teams up with a demon to stop them.

Let’s say Jim Cameron calls and he wants to make Claimed by the Wolf into a movie. Who are your actor/actress choices?

Hmm. Maybe Gerard Butler and Angelina Jolie.

What’s your one line of advice for aspiring writers (demonic or otherwise)?

Write what truly fascinates you.

Thanks Charlene!

    I read Claimed by the Wolf and loved it. There were some very hot scenes. I loved that there was one of each type of species and all were good to her. Demons can be good when they want too.

    I love how there are those wonderful shades of gray… good acting demons to fallen angels…. sometimes its nice to see what’s on the other side of the fence, but every demon finds their way back to being bad…. sometimes in a good way, hahaha :)

    The books sound great! I love the myths you’ve chosen to write about, very intriguing. And Gerard Butler is a great choice. I’d pay to watch him in anything, even reading the telephone book.

    Wicked Hot sounds fantastic.
    I could totally see Gerard Butler and Angelina Jolie in the leads for Claimed by the Wolf.Great book.

    Hi, Charlene! I’ve read some of your other books, and have these on the TBB! Honestly a few years ago, I never would have considered demonic heroes! Times, they are a changin’ ;)

    I read all of your books with a tall glass of cold water nearby…and that’s just the way I like them. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your writing.

    Unfortunately I have not had the pleasure of reading anything Charlene Teglia. The covers look great though and both books sound delish! ;)
    As for the character pics Gerard Butler (yum) is my dream guy so I would watch anything with him in it.
    Thanks for the interview ladies.

    I saw Claimed by the Wolf at the books store, I almost bought it. Hopefully I will win a signed copy, that would be wicked cool. This is the first I heard of Wicked Hot…but it does sound, for lack of a better word HOT.

    I adore all of Charli’s writings. Wicked Hot is totally….hot! You gotta love Nephilim brothers – mmmmmmmmm. I bought Claimed by The Wolf when it was released but am holding off reading it because I have read everything else of hers and have to have 1 new thing to tempt myself with!!!
