Eternity (Descendants of Ra #1)
by Tmonique Stephens
 


Paranormal Romance 
Paperback, 332 pages
  
Published February 4th 2013 by Soul Mate Publishing

Cursed for 2000 years, Roman Nicolis has tracked his lovers’ soul through each reincarnation only to lose her horribly every time. Reclaiming their love is his only salvation. He’s been her friend, her father, her neighbor, but never again her lover...until now.

A late night walk home throws Stella Walker into the path of a killer. The last thing she remembers are the deep blue eyes of the man trying to kill her—and the first things she sees after a seven day coma are the same blue eyes in the handsome face of the man hired to protect her. Is he truly the owner of a security firm or the man who wants to finish her off? Is it fears she feels when Roman touches her or the memory of something sweeter?

Past secrets haunt them. An angry demon stalks them.

Roman will do anything to recover what they once had. Though Stella’s ruined childhood has made her close her heart and body to any man, he must get past the walls around her to gain her love and trust, for it will take their union to defeat an unexpected enemy sent from the Egyptian Gods. A man Romans respects, and Stella trusts.
Tmonique Stephens wrote her first novel about a reporter and a hockey player after the U.S. hockey team won gold in the 1980 Olympics. She loves writing flawed characters who reflect the emotional baggage we all carry. She writes complicated stories for complicated people. Paranormal romances and fantasy novels are her favorite genre.

Eternity and Everlasting are the first two novels in her Descendants of Ra series. Evermore, the third novel will be released in September 2014. Currently, she is working a contemporary revenge series and Encore, the fourth novel in the Descendants of Ra series. She will read anything about fairies, demons, or angels. She also enjoys Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and Preston and Child.

She has a Bachelor’s Degree in Creative Writing from City College of New York where she won an English Department Award for her play Tea with Salt in 1987.

Born in St. Thomas USVI, Tmonique Stephens grew up in The Bronx, New York one mile from Yankee Stadium. She loves SyFy, the History channels, and also Asian cuisine. But her heart and stomach longs for anything from the Caribbean.

Q & A with Author Tmonique Stephens

Tell us a little bit about your main characters.
Meet the Descendants of Ra. The men of the Nicolis Family.

Male descendants from Egyptian Gods. Scars and secrets have shaped them into brutal warriors. Can love turn them into heroic men?


Roman Nicolis

 
Cursed for 2000 years, Roman Nicolis has tracked his lovers’ soul through each reincarnation only to lose her horribly every time. Reclaiming their love is his only salvation. He’s been her friend, her father, her neighbor, but never again her lover...until now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Reign Nicolis

 
Kill the beast, save your brother, win your freedom from the Goddess of the Dead. No problem for a 2000 year old warrior. Falling in love with the cop trying to arrest you? Problem.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Avery Nicolis


There is no such thing as a chance meeting.

There is no room in Avery Nicolis’s life for an obsession, yet why else does he stalk Emeline Gamble. Lurking in the shadows, he hungers for what he can’t have. Between the secrets he guards and anarchy infesting his soul, his only solace are his glimpses of Emeline. He will resist her, protect her from himself, and deny his desire to claim her heart.
   

What is the best advice you have been given?
The best advice I was ever given was to never stop writing. I equate writing a novel to climbing Mount Everest. So every novel, I will myself to never stop, never quit, to keep climbing no matter the obstacle. So far it has worked.
  

How has your environment/upbringing colored your writing?
My upbringing stifled my writing, but nurtured my imagination. That is probably why I love fantasy and paranormal genres. Reality sucks. In fantasies, your mind can go anywhere.
 

Describe your ideal writing spot.
I wish I could write during that space of time when I got to bed and fall asleep. The best ideas come to me during that time. Unfortunately, I can’t. So, I would have to say my favorite writing space is the left side of my bed, propped up on my comfy pillows with a snack and a cold drink.

  If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
Since, I write an Egyptian God series, I would love to see the pyramids. Maybe after the unrest in the region calms, I will be able to travel there. 

  If you could have any superhuman ability, what would you choose and why?
My superhuman ability would be to repel fat. LOL. Who wouldn’t want that superhuman ability to eat any and everything, and not gain weight? I would be the envy of everyone.

Which do you prefer: hard/paperbacks or ebooks?
I buy more e-books than print books, but there is one author whom I buy her hardcover book for my permanent collection, JR Ward.
  


What book are you reading now? 
I am re-reading CL Wilson’s Tairen Soul series because of the vivid imagery, and Jeanine Frost’s Night Huntress series because of her kick ass heroine.
