Damian Fontaine has returned for a third time to share his
thoughts about another of his missions. This time we'll be talking with him
about Hayley Vincent's story, MISSION INEVITABLE.
Fallen Angel Chronicles is my erotic fantasy series. Damian
Fontaine was permanently banished to earth eight hundred years ago as a fallen angel.
His transgression? A hedonistic existence. His self-proclaimed mission? To help
repressed mortals find the sexually fulfilling life that has eluded them.
MISSION INEVITABLE is book #3 of the Fallen Angel Chronicles
series, release date July 21, 2017. Hayley Vincent and Ward Dawson—friends with
benefits. But Hayley wants so much more. She wants his love for a lifetime. Can
Damian help commitment phobic Ward realize that the girl next door is the one
to fill that emotionally empty spot inside him? The one who will make his life
complete? And Damian has his own problems as he wrestles with his confusing
feelings toward Rhiannon, a witch of the ancient bloodline who has been his
lover for the last four centuries
Good morning, Damian. I
appreciate you taking the time from your schedule to stop by and talk with us
again.
Good morning to you, Samantha. Thanks for having me on your
blog for the third time. I'm honored.
Before we talk about
MISSION INEVITABLE, the third book of the Fallen Angel Chronicles erotic
fantasy series, I'd like to talk about you.
Me? What would you like to know about me? I'm not all that
interesting.
An immortal—a fallen
angel banished to earth who has participated in 800 years of human history. Someone
who has first hand knowledge of pivotal events that have led to the world stage
as it exists today. I find that a fascinating subject.
Well, I must admit that MISSION INEVITABLE does contain a
few crumbs of information about my past experiences on earth not connected to
my missions. To blend in over eight centuries without arousing suspicion, I've
had to constantly reinvent my outer persona as it relates to humans.
Do you mean you've
been able to change your physical appearance?
No, not that. I was born 1,134 years ago. My human existence
died at the age of 34. I was an angel and traveled between earth and the
hereafter for 300 years until my…uh, shall we say 'misdeeds'…resulted in me
being permanently banished to earth. I looked like this at the time of my
death. At 6'2" I used to be taller than almost everyone, [extends a
teasing grin and a wink] and now I'm not. During the last millennium, humans
have gotten taller. During the last 800 years I've been many things from the
highest to the lowly including royalty, a carpenter, a soldier, a wizard, an
adviser to a king, and even a teacher.
A wizard?
Yes, even though I have been banished to earth, I still have
many of my mystical powers.
And a teacher? What
did you teach?
[laughs] The obvious—I taught history.
Why did you choose
Hayley Vincent as one of your missions?
The waves of vibrations carrying her desires kept reaching
out to me. She was not sexually repressed, quite the contrary. She had a healthy
sexual relationship with her next door neighbor, Ward Dawson. Sexually
fulfilling, but it was one of unrequited love. She desperately wanted him to
return the love she had been carrying for him for three years. She wanted a
lifetime relationship with him, a commitment from Ward that exceeded their
current situation of Friends With Benefits.
She did not need her
hidden sexual desires released. She had already found the man she loved and
wanted to be with for the rest of her life. That seems like it would be a
simple task for you to fix. Why did you select this particular situation as a mission?
It was basically a straight forward task—determine Ward was
the right man for her, make him jealous, get to the cause of his commitment
phobia, put him in a position where he finally realized exactly what he would
be losing if he allowed Hayley to move on with her life and no longer be
available to him when he was between girlfriends.
Why did you select
such a simple mission this time?
[pensive expression covers his face] That's difficult to
answer. It has to do with my limited ability to actually experience human emotions.
I understand them intellectually but am not able to actually experience them as
a human would.
Is that important for
your missions? [pauses to consider what she's just said] I don't mean that
emotions aren't necessary to your missions…love, emotional fulfillment, and
lifetime happiness are vitally important to humanity. I mean, why are you
struggling with this problem at this time? And for that matter, why is it a
problem?
Rhiannon, an immortal who is a witch of the ancient
bloodline, has been a participant in my existence for approximately 400 years.
A participant in your
existence? That seems like an odd choice of words. I recall her being involved
with MISSION INNOCENCE in helping you secure a happy future for Sarah Downing.
I know she's been your lover and closest friend for 400 years. Is there more?
That is the question I can't answer. Or more accurately, don't
know how to answer due to my fleeting ability to actually experience human
emotions, to be able to feel them for myself. It's a troubling problem that I'm
trying to work out.
That sounds as if your
next mission might be your own story.
[flashes dazzling smile] Who knows what the future will
bring.
Thank you, Damian, for
talking with us about MISSION INEVITABLE and also for sharing a little it of
insight into your personal situation.
Once again, it was my pleasure, Samantha.
BLURB:
Fallen Angel,
Damian Fontaine was banished from heaven for too often indulging in sex with
humans. He has made the best of his eight hundred years on earth by creating
missions to help repressed mortals find the sexually fulfilling life that
eludes them.
Advertising executive Hayley Vincent believes Ward Dawson,
her ridiculously hot best friend and sometimes lover, would be the perfect man
if he didn't have a severe case of commitment phobia. She's been in love with
him for years. Then a steamy new neighbor moves in across the hall, and she has
to wonder if it might be time to move on...or at least try to spark some
jealousy and change her status with Ward from friends with benefits to
something permanent.
While Damian works toward completing his current mission, he
begins to question the meaning of his centuries-old relationship with Rhiannon,
a witch with a sexual appetite as veracious as his, and the sudden stirrings of
mortal emotions. Has he been on Earth too long or is there more at hand?

Damian sounds great! Good luck with the book.
Jennifer: I've enjoyed writing Damian, speculating on what type of background that character would have.
Thanks for your comment.
