This giveaway is over.
I had the opportunity to talk to Lisa Desrochers about the covers of her new book, Original Sin, the sequel to Personal Demons! (I also had the opportunity to talk to her at BookExpo America; she's super nice! Go follow her on Twitter and send your love and stuff.)
Frannie Cavanaugh is a good Catholic girl with a bit of a wicked streak. She has spent years keeping everyone at a distance—-even her closest friends—-and it seems as if her senior year is going to be more of the same . . . until Luc Cain enrolls in her class. No one knows where he came from, but Frannie can’t seem to stay away from him.
What she doesn’t know is that Luc is on a mission. He’s been sent from Hell itself to claim Frannie’s soul. It should be easy—-all he has to do is get her to sin, and Luc is as tempting as they come. Frannie doesn’t stand a chance. But he has to work fast, because if the infernals are after her, the celestials can’t be far behind. And sure enough, it’s not long before the angel Gabriel shows up, willing to do anything to keep Luc from getting what he came for. It isn’t long before they find themselves fighting for more than just Frannie’s soul.
But if Luc fails, there will be Hell to pay . . . for all of them.
Nicole: Hello again, Lisa! What was your initial reaction to seeing the cover of Personal Demons? Original Sin?
Lisa Desrochers: Honestly, I thought the Personal Demons cover looked more adult that I would have hoped, but I really liked the concept and I thought Gabe was perfect… and totally hot. Original Sin is the same models, but Frannie looks a little younger for some reason. I like how Gabe and Luc are switched on that cover, and Gabe is all protective…and totally hot—again ;p
N: I got the same vibe the first time I saw the cover! I couldn't decide if I liked it or not because of it. If you could change anything about the covers, what would you change?
LD: Again, I’d like to give them a more youthful feel. I’m also generally not a fan of full faces on covers, so I’d maybe get creative with that.
N: Personal Demons has been turned into a movie! (Well, in MY mind.) Who is being cast to match the images on the cover?
LD: I did a blog post on this last summer when my agencies movie guy asked the same question. I think Chloe Mortez would be a great Frannie. Logan Lerman could definitely pull off Luc. Lucas Till is totally perfect for Gabe.
N: If there had to be a cover without using people, what would you expect on it?
LD: I really loved the ARC cover for Personal Demons. It was simple with some flames and a halo on some of the lettering in the title. Very fun.
N: Ooo. I'd love to see a copy of that sometime. What is your favorite part about the covers?
LD: Gabe. Yummy :p
