Desire from Below By: Leanne Krieger




Desire from Below

By: Leanne Krieger
I love the cover of this book, the fire on it is very illuminating. But to many of us, fire can mean many things, and all the while, when we stare at it long enough, it pulls you in, and causes you to think..

This book is about none other than the Son of the Prince of Darkness. This is a ‘hell’ of a title to have to uphold, pardon my pun, if you will. 

Damien keeps having a longing desire and dreams for the love of his life, and the thing is, his dreams have plans for him, even long before he does, like it or not. The thing is though, is that Damien feels that he isn’t worthy of love, because of who he is.

However, this doesn’t stop him from trying to find someone who just might find him worthy, and accept him for who he is, in case there actually is a chance there is someone, or something out there for him.

Then there is Zoe, a very independent woman who isn’t looking for love, and thinks it will never find her anyway, so why bother. Meaning, she has pretty much given up on it.

One day, out of the clear blue, Damien and Zoe have a chance meeting, and neither one can deny their feelings, it is like something has awakened in the both of them. For Zoe, it was unplanned and unexpected, for Damien, it was everything he wanted and more, the only thing he has to be concerned with, is will she accept him, once she learns the truth.

This is as far as I go, because you have to read on your own, to learn the end results, I do not tell all.

I will tell you, that this book was quite entertaining, because I enjoyed it immensely, and found Damien’s character to be a pretty unique kind of guy, very classy, but not too stuck on himself. He seems like the kind of guy that would open doors for a woman, and show her a good time. I like his style. 

The book is truly a five-star read, and I honestly enjoyed it. I also think the cover is very pretty, and the fonts are very nice as well. I think it would also make for a nice little love story movie!

Here are my questions for Leanne:
1.What made you write this book and how long did it take you?
This book was actually on a whim, Desire from Below. I was having writers block on another and started writing this one. It basically wrote itself. I do love this book because it is an easy read, it is a ‘feel good’ book. I love to write where my readers can escape for an hour, where the house can be a mess but when they read my book and it doesn't matter. 
1.  Who designed this beautiful cover?
I designed it with two different photos I bought and put them together. 
3.  Do you have any photos or descriptions of the characters that you can share with us?
The characters I wanted them to be strong and confident but having a small sense of uncertainness. The lead male Damien was someone we would all love to have in a man, the sexiness and confidence with a small dose of shy. I wanted them all to not only find love but find their equal.  
4.  What are you working on now?
Right now I am working on a Sci-fy novel I have wanted to write for a long time but never had the time. It doesn't have a title yet but as soon as I do, you will be the first to know. 
5.  What motivates you to write?
What motivates me? I have something to say, I am shy so I write it down. I can say my son does, he loves to hear I am working on something new, I sometimes bounce it off of him, he's old enough now. I love the look on his face when I tell him I got a new idea, that look is what motivates me. He is my reason for everything. 
 6.  If you were to get writers block, or have ever had it, what do you do for it?
When i get writers block I do a few things, I close my computer, I don't force it to come to me, I have faith it will come. I go for a walk or put my headphones on and relax with music. 
7.  What suggestions can you offer for the aspiring writers out there?
A suggestion would be a cliche’,  never give up. But also believe in yourself and know you have a lot to say and I know many people are waiting for you to say it or rather write it.   
8. How long have you been writing?
I have been writing a very long time, I published my first a few years ago. I didn't have the guts to send my books out, I was afraid of rejection. But speaking to other writers, that feeling is normal, not everyone will love all of your books or any at all.  
9. Who is your favorite author and why?
I always say the same author and it is Stephen King not only because he is a great writer and his books are epic, but also he makes mistakes and admits he did and does still. He fought to be where he is and I am now fighting too. Maybe someday I will get to meet him, that would be a dream come true.  

10.  What is your favorite childhood book and why?
My favorite book, lets see, mine when I was little was Curious George, I had a stuffed monkey I don't think it was a Curious George doll but I thought it was. I loved all the trouble he got into and all the discoveries he made too. I was a curious creative child so I related to him. 
11.  What are your hobbies?
Writing, reading, cooking and music 

12.  Do you put yourself into your characters?
Yes I do put myself into my characters, they do what I always dreamed of or things I wish I had the courage to do. My characters are outgoing and fearless never worrying what anyone thought, I am obviously the opposite. I know I can learn from my characters and in my later years have taken a lesson from their playbook.
13.  Where is your favorite place to write?
 My favorite place to write is my bedroom on my bed with my headphones on with music blaring, it helps me concentrate.

15.  Anything to add::
Yes, I would like to add Deneale thank you for giving me the courage to send my books to review. I know I may never be a best seller, it would be nice, but, I just love when I see or hear someone read my book, they loved it and they get it. 
That's all I want just to get it.
