Meet My Characters
Rick Chamberland
- Southern
boy turned international rock star, Rick, lives his life in the fast lane. When
a scandal threatens his career, he’s summoned home to his mother’s sprawling
plantation in De Charles, LA. There he begins to unravel the secrets to his
stardom and the sinister debt he owes to keep it.
About Rick:
Rick grew up with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth.
But despite his family’s riches, he worked hard to secure his position amongst
the world’s most popular singers. Now rich, famous, sought after by women and
men alike for his talent as a singer/songwriter and playboy status, Rick
returns home, to his roots where he meets a woman, who will change the course
his life will take.
Rick Says:
“What’s normal? Normal is the opposite of what I’ve had my
entire life. I want normal. Normal makes sense. And I need my life to make
sense right now.”
Author Music Pick for Rick:
“Free” by Gavin

Rick’s Theme:
Song Peters - Dutiful daughter, Song Peters is
kind-hearted, loyal and determined. Born and bred across the tracks from De
Charles in the humbler Buceaux; she spends her evenings serving rot gut and
singing at a local blues bar, hoping for the chance to finally make it out and
pursue her music dreams.
About Song:
Weighed down with adult responsibility, Song Peters had
little room in her life for dreaming too big. Waitressing part-time and singing
when the chance comes about, Song works to take care of herself and her mother.
When Rick Chamberland enters her world it is forever changed. For once, for
better or worse, she puts her dreams first.
Song Says:
“I don’t believe he’s bad or bad for me. I’m taking a
chance on love. Just this once. Just this once…”

Nova - Friend or foe? The
mysterious Nova has been a supportive and steady presence in Rick’s life, but
when he’s called home to Louisiana and his overbearing mother, Nova and Rick’s
friendship takes a dark turn.
About Nova:
Daemon select of her tribe, Nova Markesh holds stake in the House of Chamberland, its men in particular. Nova, by book’s end, finds that she and Rick have more in common than what she could have ever imagined or planned.
Nova Says:
“Richie, everything you are is because of me. And don’t you
ever forget it.”

Description:
What
southern-grown, rock star Rick Chamberland doesn’t know about his family’s dark
past comes to light when he returns home to Louisiana at the request of his
mother. Rick has spent the last fifteen years of his life dedicated to music,
touring the world, completely oblivious to the secrets coded in his legacy.
Meanwhile, Song
Peters, a dutiful daughter taking care of a dying mother, dreams of the day she
can break free of small town life and pursue her one true passion, singing.
Rick meets Song and instantly sparks ignite.
They make
beautiful music together and soon find that they share similar upbringings.
Rick comes to learn that their families are supernaturally intertwined and that
the one denominator (a demon by the name Nova) connected to both families
threatens to destroy them all if they do not obey.
