Deceived -Stephanie Nelson Blog Tour

Deceived (Gwen Sparks, #2)Blurb:
The vampire drug, brew, nearly ruined Gwen Sparks’ life. 
Just when things started to get back to normal between her and Aiden, she is summoned by the North American Witches Council to their central city of Moon. 
A war is imminent between vampires and witches, and Gwen’s experiences with brew are being used to fuel the fire. 
She is about to discover just how powerful she is with the help of the ruggedly handsome Angel of Death and just how far some people will go to get what they want. Gwen is going to learn exactly what it means to be Deceived.








As Part of the blog tour I have an exciting character interview to share with you all, enjoy!



Hey, Fiona here. So I was surfing the web and came across what is known as a…blog? I guess they’re really popular amongst the humans. So, I decided to start my own blog. Man that word, blog, sounds like a noise you make after a night of drinking. Anyways, I’ve made Gwen and Dorian sit down with me and I’m going to fire off a round of questions.

Fiona, Gwen and Dorian are sitting in the living room Fiona glances over the top of her computer and winks at them.

Fiona: Ready?

Gwen releases an annoyed breath while Dorian crosses his arms across his hard chest and grins.

Fiona: Okay. First, why don’t you introduce yourself, Gwen.

Gwen crosses one leg over the over and glares at Fiona.

Gwen: You already know who I am, Fiona.

Fiona: The people on my blog don’t. Fiona snaps back.

Gwen: What the hell is a blog anyway?

Fiona: It’s an interactive website where — never mind. The point is, I have one and you said you’d let me interview you.

Gwen: Fine. My name is Gwen Sparks. I’m twenty-six years old and I’m a witch.

Dorian interrupts. And a spirit walker.

Gwen: Yeah and a spirit walker. She rolls her eyes at Dorian and then focuses on Fiona.

Fiona: And Dorian would you please introduce yourself?

Dorian rubs his jaw. Names Dorian Hade and I’m the Angel of Death, but I don’t wear a cloak or carry a scythe so let’s nip that myth in the bud right now.

Fiona stares down at her computer while her fingers go to work at typing. Got it. No robe…or scythe. Fiona looks up and smiles at Gwen and Dorian.

Fiona: Would either one of you like to tell my followers how you two met?

Gwen: You have followers?
Fiona glares at her best friend. I will.

Dorian: I met Gwen while in Moon. I am teaching her how to use her spirit walker
abilities.

Fiona: I wish I would’ve had teachers that looked like you.

Dorian laughs while Gwen shakes her head at her friend’s blunt statement.

Dorian: Some students don’t realize a good thing when they have it. Dorian looks over at Gwen and gives her a pointed look.

Gwen: The only asset I’m interested in is your teaching capabilities so I don’t get myself killed. I could care less about the pretty wrapping.

Dorian: So, you think I’m pretty then? Dorian bats his eyelashes and Fiona laughs.

Gwen: Very pretty. Gwen smiles coyly. You’d make some man very happy.

Dorian releases a heavy, frustrated breath and Gwen laughs.

Fiona: Okay, okay. Let’s get back on track.

Gwen and Dorian give her their attention.

Fiona: So, I’ve been noticing some major sexual tension between the two of you. Do you –

Gwen interjects. There isn’t any sexual tension, next question.

Dorian: Ah come on, there’s a little sexual tension.

Gwen: In order for that to happen, I’d have to like you. I don’t.

Okay fellow bloggers, Gwen and Dorian are in the middle of a staring contest and I thought I’d leave the room before clothes started flying. Until next time….
