For my stop on this FABULOUS tour, I am hosting the amazing author, Wendy Higgins. WHY, you might wonder, did I ask to host her? Well this girl rocked my world with her fabulous debut novel, Sweet Evil. I adore this fresh take on the angel and demons world that she has going.
Not only is she this wonderful author but when I've talked to her on twitter, she has been so wonderful to me. She let me interview Kia and even offered to contribute to the giveaway I was offering. She is fabulous and I couldn't be happier to have her here with me on StuckInBooks.
So what yummy stuff do I have for you today? Well, remember that
Kai interview I did? If you missed it, you can check it out here. I decided it would be fun to have Anna check out some of Kai's answers - see what she thought about them. So, without further adieu- I give you my interview with Anna from Sweet Evil.

Claire Holt as Anna |
So Anna thanks for talking to me today. I had the chance to talk to Kaidan awhile
back and thought it would be fun to ask you some of the same questions and then
let you react to his answers. Sound fun?
Oh,
boy...this ought to be good, if not a little frightening! :)
Not sure you’re gonna get to go
to college with the working thing you guys are expected to do, but if you do
get to go to college what would you study?
Kai’s answer: I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I’ve always been a bit
fascinated by history, and how it continually repeats itself in different ways.
Reaction?
Mm,
yes. I can see how he’d be fascinated by the way people screw up in the same
ways over and over.
As
for me, I would have loved to be a social worker. It’s so hard to know people’s
true intentions, but with my ability of seeing auras it would give me an
advantage of knowing how people truly feel and know if the children in their
care are in danger.
That really does fit you. I hope somehow, someday you can.
Best thing about being a Neph?
Best thing about being a Neph?
Kai’s answer: Easy. Sensitivity to physical touch.
Reaction?
Ha! I could’ve told you his answer. That Kai…
As for me, I can’t say that there is a best
thing. Even the cool stuff has its downfalls. Seeing auras can be really uncomfortable when you’re seeing
something you’d rather not, you know?
I'll bet that can be hard.
Worst thing about being a Neph?
Worst thing about being a Neph?
Kai’s answer: I’d rather not go there, if you don’t mind, luv. Best not to
dwell on it.
Reaction?
Yeah, Kai tends to avoid anything unpleasant,
or anything/anyone he doesn’t want to deal with.
But I’ll say what he’s thinking, because it’s
true for me, too. The worst thing about being a Neph is having no freedom to be
whoever we choose—or having to keep our true selves hidden for fear of our
lives.
Kai is all about the pleasure stuff, right? I totes get why you guy feel that way. I'd never make it in your situation.
Tell me something about Kai that we don’t learn about in the book?

Wade Poszyen as Kai |
Kai’s answer: I’ve got large feet and I love the British show Top Gear (the
U.S. version of the show sucks...no offense).
Reaction?
LOL! He does have big feet!
Hm...something nobody knows...oh, I’ve got
it. Kai can sing. Really well. I loved listening to him sing along with songs
on our road trip, though I never told him. Everything about his voice, whether
talking or whispering or singing, is very nice.
Singing? Really? Yet he plays the drums. *Sigh* I just love drummers.
What about you, can you tell us something about you that we don’t learn in the book?
What about you, can you tell us something about you that we don’t learn in the book?
Kai’s answer: She can find beauty in the mundane. And she’s got one of those
infectious laughs. It’s quite adorable, really.
Aww! He said that? Now I’m all smiley.
Something people don’t know is that Patti’s mom in Florida (my Nana) and I
write letters back and forth every few weeks. She’s a funny woman.
Okay
these are just questions for you.
Can
you describe Kai in 5 words? (Didn’t think we were done talking about him, did
you?)
I could talk about Kai all day! (Gosh, I hope
he doesn’t read this.)
I would describe him as: sexy, talented,
stubborn, guarded, & frustrating.
Oh yes, that's him.
Describe the perfect day. Who would you be with and what would you do?
Describe the perfect day. Who would you be with and what would you do?
My perfect day would be a holiday, like
Thanksgiving or Christmas, at home with Patti, my father, Kai, and all our
friends—together with no fear of getting in trouble.
I'm so glad Kai is included in there.
If
you could have one wish, no questions, what would it be and why?
For Kaidan Rowe to let me love him. Because
he deserves it, whether he knows it or not.
Randomness:
M&M
or skittles? M&Ms
Sweet
or salty? Sweet
Ocean
or Mountains? Ocean
Burger
or steak? Burger
Day
or night? Day (I
see less whisperers during the day)
Brown
or blue eyes? BLUE
(have you ever seen Kai’s eyes? *faints*)
Blond
or brown hair? Brown...dark
brown (clearly I have a one-track mind here)
Favorite
color? Yellow
(the color of happiness)
Favorite
place? Home
I did see that Kai theme in there. Glad we think alike! Heehee
I did ask Kai a spoilery question. I’m gonna ask you something similar and promise to hide it from peeps that haven’t read the book. (Highlight the text to read it.)

The pinky scene was my very favorite in the whole book. What made you grab his pinky and how did you feel when he kissed you?It was my last chance. Our last moment. I just knew I was going to die that night. When he kissed me I felt alive and filled with love. I thought he felt the same, but now I don’t know. I still think about that kiss every day.
Thanks
so much for talking to me and talking about Kai. Hope you get to see his colors one day.
I hope so, too. Can you imagine? *sigh*
Thank you so much for having me!
