Hi. Thanks so much for hosting my new paranormal
romance on your blog. If you haven’t
heard of it before, the Remembering Raven series is a five-book series about
the vampire, Viktor’s re-discovery of his long-lost love, Raven. He finds Raven as a psychic in an occult shop
in New Orleans. Throughout the series,
Viktor helps Raven remember their past life together, however, their reunion is
over-shadowed by a serial killer who is murdering young women. Specifically, young women that Raven has
previously done Tarot readings for.
Since book three is
all about Allegra, I thought you would enjoy a character profile of her, as
well as “A Day in the Life of Allegra”…
Allegra Canelle
Allegra is the best
friend of Raven LeClaire (heroine of the Remembering Raven series). She’s in
her late 20s and stands at about 5’10”.
She and Raven been friends for years. She helped Raven through the
difficult days following her husband, Eric’s death and talked her into co-owing
The Little Shop of Secrets with her. Allegra is quite beautiful in a wild sort
of way with long, wavy, dark auburn hair and green cat eyes. She likes to have
fun and has never been in love until she meets Philippe, who turns out to be
more than he appears. His real name is Marcel Durand, and his true intentions
become known as we delve further into this third book of the series. Will
Viktor and Raven discover Philippe’s secret in time to save Allegra?
Despite the potential
danger that awaits her in this book, how does a beautiful occult shop co-owner
spend a typical day? Check out “A Day in the Life of Allegra Canelle”:

Book Description:
Raven LeClaire is starting to move past the two horrible murders that have targeted her Tarot reading clients. Although she has vowed to stay actively involved with solving these highly puzzling deaths, she is finally allowing herself to get closer to the handsome Viktor Thorssen. The two of them feel the centuries old connection between them and have given into everything that sort of bond brings with it.
Raven’s best friend and business partner, Allegra Canelle, has been acting like a school girl since she has met the elusive and mysterious Philippe. Because of her relationship with him, Allegra has been shirking all of her responsibilities including holding up her end of things at The Little Shop of Secrets. She agrees to sell her half of the shop to Raven so that she can be free to spend more time with Philippe.
Raven is finally beginning to be truly happy in life. She has a thriving business that she can now call her own. Viktor and she had a relationship filled with both undying love and passion. Not only that, but she has recalled much of their previous life together in the 14th century.
Not everything is happy, though. She has seen danger ahead for Allegra as well as a new Tarot client and neither of the women will listen to her. When tragedy does strike seemingly without warning, Viktor makes a decision that will change the lives of all of them. Believing that he is doing the right thing, he is not fully prepared for the reaction that he gets from Raven.
Whatever else may happen, however, Viktor is determined not to lose the love of his life – his soul mate – ever again. No matter what it takes to keep them together, he will do it.

Excerpt:
“Surely, Viktor,
you cannot argue that your wife is the fairest in the land,” Kol said with a
flourish. “And that is why the lovely Raven will be mine.”
“Kol!” Allegra
cried. “What is wrong with you?”
“Allegra, do be
quiet,” he said. “Or I shall be forced to silence you.”
“Silence me?”
she shouted.
Before any of
them could take a breath, Kol leaped to his feet and snapped Allegra’s neck
with his bare hands.
“I did tell her
to be quiet,” he said as he pushed her body out of the chair.
“Raven, Raven,
wake up, love,” a voice whispered urgently in her ear. “You are dreaming. Wake
up, now.”
Raven drew in a
quick, deep gasp of air and bolted upright in bed. She was simultaneously
sweating and shivering. Viktor wrapped his arms around her and drew her to him.
“It is ok now,
my love,” he said. “You were having quite a dream.”
“No,” she said.
“What do you
mean?”
“I mean, it was
not a dream,” she replied.
“Ah,” Viktor
said. “So it was another memory?”
“Yes, and it was
clearer and more frightening than any nightmare I’ve ever had.”
“Do you want to
tell me about it?”
“Maybe,” Raven
said. “I think I probably should. Allegra was in this one.”
“Yes, that is to
be expected because she was a very close friend to you during that lifetime,”
Viktor assured her.
“I know. But this was kind of awful, Viktor.”
“In what way, my
love?” he asked.
“Well, she was
killed,” Raven replied. “Right in front of us.”
Imperceptibly,
Viktor’s body tensed. He tried to control it, but she picked up on it.
“What do you
know about that?”
“I…I really do
not know much,” he said. “What did you see happen?”
He listened
intently as Raven recounted her dream/memory to him.
This is bad, he
thought. At this rate, she will be remembering her own death without any help
from me. I do not believe she is ready to handle that yet.
“Something keeps
trying to break through,” she said. “I do have one question from this dream.”
“What is that,
love?” he asked.
“I’m wondering
about Allegra’s companion in the dream. The one who killed her,” she said.
“Viktor, just who is Kol?”
