Can Werewolves and Vamps Be Reincarnated: Return by Max W. Miller


Can Werewolves and Vamps Be Reincarnated


If you were a werewolf or vampire and you took a sliver bullet or stake through the heart, and if you were reincarnated, would you still have the same soul, wanting to drink blood or rip faces off? What if the soul of Dracula, the granddaddy of all vamps came back inside a nun? And what if the memories from that former life came through the nun? Wow, I would suspect that the sister would have trouble at Mass, or at least be in as much turmoil as my main character in Egyptian Moon – Return, when an ancient Egyptian princess exerts her life into Megan’s.

Freshman Megan Smart’s battle began by touching an ancient Egyptian Artifact at a museum. We really need to be careful about touching old stuff, so if you discover a coffin hidden inside an old castle in Transylvania don’t climb inside. Fare warning.

·       Reincarnation is defined as follows:
·       The rebirth of a soul in a new body.
·       The Transmigration of the soul or metempsychosis
·       A person or an animal in which a particular soul is believed to have been reborn.

Most would agree that Jacob Black (portrayed by Taylor loutner) in Twilight is by far the most heart throbbing werewolf of all times. But what if Twilight was all real and the soul (spirit) that overtook Jacob and the other boys from his tribe when they reached a certain age were from werewolves that have lived in other time periods? What if Jacob Black was in fact the tormented werewolf character, Waldemar Daninsky, who killed and maimed in a dozen films in the 1980s or even more thought provoking, what if Waldemar Daninsky got his skills from The Curse of the Werewolf , where the unlucky recipient of werewolf-ness was ‘kinda’ like Jacob Black, born into this … perhaps soul.

Back to Egyptian Moon – Return: Megan Smart, with the help her mother and this empathetic doctor, begins to unfold the true nature of her strange occurrences. Read this short synopsis.

A freshman learns how to adapt to college life while resisting reincarnation. How will Megan Smart’s memories survive under the aggression of an ancient Egyptian soul who is determined to RETURN. And what in God’s name does this teal eyed stalker want?
After she touches an artifact at a New York museum, Megan Smart has a sexually charged vision involving an ancient Egyptian couple. When she leaves home to attend the same college as her star quarterback boyfriend, Tyler, she is caught making-out with a dark eyed stranger at a frat party. Normally shy and reserve, Megan struggles with what she’d done and trembles because of the irresistible attraction she feels for this gorgeous stranger.
At the point of mental exhaustion, Megan goes home to meet with an empathic doctor, who had been training her mother in astrology. Instantly, Dr. Epstein taps into the root of Megan’s personality changes. Megan had connected with a past life—one who intends to take-over hers.

Egyptian Moon- Return brings back to life the fascination of ancient Egypt, plants it into a college campus, and in the process created a powerful paranormal series you will not forget. I’d like to sum up this post by answering my own question asked: Can Werewolves and Vamps Be Reincarnated? Absolutely, they do come back!

Interview and Giveaway with Anyta Sunday


Do you write in different genres?

Yes, I do. I write YA paranormal romance, New Adult urban fantasy, and then I write contemporary gay romance. Under different pseudonyms, I write gay erotic fairy tales, and I’m currently working on a children’s chapter book.

If yes which is your favorite genre to write?

No fair! That’s too tough. I think the reason I write a broad range is because so much interests me and I like to keep things interesting. The different genres offer different challenges, and I enjoy them all! Equally.

What books are in your to read pile?

So, I just checked on Goodreads on my to-read shelf and I have 256 books waiting for me. The thing is, I am adding to the list faster than I can possibly read. :/ I try to read between 50 – 100 books a year, and by that math, it’ll take me a while to get through those books! But, some examples of ones I really want to read very soon:

Faefever, Karen Marie Moning (I’m at book II currently)

The Scorpio Races, Maggie Stiefvater

Perfect Scoundrels, Ally Carter

Is there anything you find particularly challenging in your writing?

Rewriting is hard. Cutting out scenes that you loved because they didn’t work for the story. Of course, doing it makes things better. But yeah, tough.

Do you have to travel much to do research for your books?

This is an interesting question, because I am a New Zealander who has set the Guardians trilogy in the States. Sometimes my English is very close to British English and that shows through in the writing. However, I lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for two years, which I counted as research, and I often went to DC to visit a writing friend of mine who lived there. I also have American beta readers that help with language/setting too.

After Phoenixed, I am planning to co-write a gay historical romance based in Ireland, and I hope to travel there again to do some research. (Nice excuse to travel, eh!)

Who designed the cover of your latest book?

The talented Caroline Wimmer. She designed all the Guardian of the Angels covers and my latest gay romance Liam Davis & The Raven! She’s very talented, and I’m glad to have her on my team.

Do you have any advice for other writers?

Persistence. Yeah, just keep at it. Don’t wait for inspiration to come to you, go to it. Make it happen.

What is your current “work in progress” or upcoming projects?

Phoenixed! Lol. Yes, I’m working on the final installment to the Guardian of the Angels trilogy.

Can you share a little of your current work with us?

Here is a never-before-read sneak peek at the opening of Pheonixed (Coming 2014). Please keep in mind that this is an extract from an unedited first draft!

* * *
There are a thousand shades of gray between right and wrong, and I was somewhere in the middle of them.

“They told us not to leave the motel premises without them,” Marcus said, shaking his head as he threw the keys to Dimitri’s Porsche over the hood.

“They always tell us that.” I opened the car door and slipped into the driver’s seat.

The leather seats were smooth and the hightailing out of the motel parking lot was even smoother.

“But tonight . . . and the meeting.”

The meeting to discuss the legitimacy of the prophecies to death, to question where the keys to the underworld were, to decide the fate of a fellow guardian . . .

“Exactly,” I said. “The meeting.”

“Right.” Leather creaked. “Sixty-nine, here we come.”

I raised a brow. “What type of mission do you think we’re on, exactly?”

A snort. “I’ve been counting.”

“How many un-phoenixed guardians we’ve saved?”

“No. How many times you’ve almost killed me saving one.”

Yikes. So many times? I thought I was getting better controlling my powers around him.
I glanced over and gave him a meek smile. A slither of moonlight haloed his bleached hair and shone against Maddy’s locket that peeked out behind his white shirt. He lounged confidently in the passenger seat, drumming his fingers on the armrest. The leather seats either side of him pinched where he rested, wrinkles spanning out like wings.

He looked ethereal. Looked like he could have transcended from the heavenly Eirene.

I swallowed and focused on the dark gray road ahead. Wasn’t that a hard study of contradictions? Marcus was as far from Eirene as he could get. Thanks to the Arae demon that had killed Maddy, Marcus was partially tethered to Ache, and . . .

My hands grew clammy against the grainy rubber steering wheel. There was something else, too. After nearly being annihilated by Furie and her minions last winter, I’d made it my mission to learn everything I could about Ache and the Derinyes Queens. And what I learned . . .

I glanced at Marcus again. What I’d learned and hadn’t ever brought up was that his soul was bound to Ache. When he died, the Derinyes got him.

Marcus shifted sharply as if he’d read my mind, but then the radio burst to life and he hummed along with it.

We drove into Foxtin’s city center. Past the local square hosting the annual week-long art market, past a few buildings that looked like they should have stayed in the sixties, and past a steakhouse that seemed oddly familiar . . . I looked at Marcus again.

“What’s with all the staring? If I didn’t know better”—He waved a hand toward himself, a grin twitching at his lip—“I’d think you were checking this out.”

“Wouldn’t be thinking straight if I was.”

“Actually, you would be—”

With a sharp jerk of the wheel, I narrowly avoided turning off to my home—My mom and dad and Jeffrey home.

I reeved the car, and bumped down a pothole-filled street. Marcus cringed when a spray of stones dinged against the car.

“Does Dimitri know you borrow his car on a relatively regular basis?” I asked, even though I was fairly sure the answer was a hard and fast no.

A shrug met my question, followed by an uncomfortable silence. And then he banged his head against the headrest, his gaze darkening as he stared out the front window. “Not like he can say anything about it, can he?”

“It’s been months,” I said carefully. Four to be exact. “Maybe you two should get past this.” Though really, who was I to speak?

“You’re one to speak,” Marcus drawled. “You practically flew out of there when you heard Queen Meyer and her cohorts were coming for the meeting.”

“Yes, well,” I said, my foot pressing down on the gas a little more than it should. “She’s got this whole Queen of Hearts thing going on, doesn’t she? I’m pretty sure if I spent any more time around her, heads would start rolling. Mine the first among them.”

Marcus laid an arm on my shoulder and squeezed. “You and I both know that’s not what had you streaking out of there like . . . like . . .”

“Lightning?” I suggested. Seemed to be the perfect analogy since that’s what I actually did. Bolted lightning and controlled the skies and all that.

“Yeah. Come on. When was the last time you saw him?”

“Him who?”

“You know.”

I knew.

After a few shaves with death, the truth finally comes out and the battles begin.

But it’s not easy going up against underworld Queen Furie when those on Sylva’s side are hiding secrets . . .

Will they succeed in protecting the home of the angels? Or will they fail, submitting the heavens to the fate of Furie?

And will Sylva and Attic ever remember what they mean to each other?

Or will they stay forever Lethed?

Sandra Hill

On-Sale 5/27/2014

Book Description:

No wicked wenches or wild rampages…it’s been centuries since Mordr the Berserker was turned into a Vangel-a Viking Vampire Angel-as punishment for his sin of wrath, and he’s been frustrated ever since. It’s not so bad being stuck in modern-day Las Vegas. What better place to slay Lucipires, or demon vampires, than the original Sin City. But then Mordr Sigurdsson’s mission is expanded to a new assignment: protect lust-worthy Miranda Hart.

Miranda’s well- ordered life turned into chaos when she unexpectedly inherited her late cousin’s five children. Now, her cousin’s dangerous husband is about to be paroled, and she needs a miracle to keep them all safe.That miracle arrives on her doorstep in the form of a very buff, handsome man with a very strange name. Mordr wants nothing to do with a red-haired wench or children. Miranda wants nothing to do with gorgeous hunk who claims to be a Viking.

As Miranda and Mordr give in to temptation, they must decide if they fit in each other’s worlds-before their enemies close in on them.
