Who He Is by S.Q. Williams Blog Tour








Title: Who He Is
Release Date: July 18, 2013
Author: S.Q. Williams





Blurb:

Eliza Smith has never been the one to seek a relationship. She’s never dated a guy in her life, never even hugged a man (outside of her father/manager of the hot and popular rock band, FireNine) but when she decides to spend her summer on tour with FireNine, it all changes. Eliza really gets to meet Gage Grendel - her former crush from high school and the lead singer of FireNine - and witness sides to him to which she’ll begin to truly despise.
She’ll ignore him, she’ll dislike his ways, she’ll do anything to try and stay away from him until Gage finally gets her to slip up and give in. She agrees on a casual fling with Gage, but soon they’ll both see how the fling will blur into something they can’t control and when it’s finally time for Eliza to go and accomplish her own dreams, she’ll know there’s more she took from Gage than she ever thought possible.



Excerpt: 



Grabbing the bar soap, I lathered it over me, my head tilted back in the running water until the bathroom door creaked open. My eyes widened, seeing Gage through the opaque glass door of the shower. His figure was solid, sexy. His strides toward the shower were cautious as he placed the towel on the rod.
He was about to turn around, but, surprisingly, I called his name and he stopped, taking a glance over his shoulder. A million thoughts were running through my drunken head. One of them was to tell him thanks… just because. Another was to ask for a kiss. It was odd, but I just wanted to feel him. The last was to tell him to come into the shower with me.
“Yeah?” Gage called, turning around.
I chewed on my bottom lip, the silence ringing between us. Finally, I asked, “Can you come in with me?”
He remained quiet for a few seconds. Through the opaque glass, he was perfectly still. Unmoving. Then, slowly and still quiet, he pulled his shirt over his head. He unbuttoned his jeans, kicked off his shoes, slid out of his boxers and jeans, and then walked toward the shower. My heart raced with each step closer. It raced even more as he grabbed the handle of the shower door and slid it open.
He stepped in without looking at me and I stepped beneath the water, as if it were going to hide my naked body. I held the bar of soap against my chest and as soon as Gage slid the shower door shut behind him, his heavy hazel eyes met mine.
For the most part, we were quiet. It wasn’t awkward to stare because he had more than enough to stare at and keep me quiet. Although the features of his face were hard, his eyes were tranquil, admiring the naked aspects of my body. My eyes traveled from his face to his broad chest. There was a tattoo of a woman’s name right below his left collarbone, almost where his heart would be. The name was Chloe and was in a flowing script.
The dragon on his ribs was defined; the blue and black stood out most. A splash of orange came out of its mouth and its head was tilted up, as if it were burning his armpit. My eyes continued traveling southward until they got to the main attraction. He wasn’t soft. He was hard, probably harder than a rock. I had the urge to grab him, stroke him… maybe even get a taste of him, but I held off, suddenly realizing I was the reason he was getting turned on.
Gage finally made the first move. His actions were deliberate, but he was going for it. He cupped my face, taking the soap out of my hand, placing it down, and then pulling my lips to his and kissing me fiercely.
I drowned in his touch, my body sinking against his firm upper half. He swallowed my moans and his tongue ran over and slipped beneath mine. His panting increased, his whole body turned rigid. He then picked me up and I had no problem wrapping my legs around him. My back pressed against the cool shower wall, but our lips never parted.
Groaning, his head moved down and he licked the droplets off my neck. He kissed and sucked on me tenderly, his arousal digging into me. He was so close to my entrance that it frightened me yet turned me on at the same time. I wanted it more than I realized. My body was yearning, craving for him to just take me there.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

~        What inspired you to write “Who He Is”?
  
    I’ve always had a fascination for music. I know a lot of people love music but I wanted to incorporate it into my books. I love singers. I actually used to want to sing myself so to create Gage and the band was awesome. I loved writing this book.


~        Who is/are your favourite character in “Who He Is” ? Why?
 My favorite would be Roy Sykes. Not many know him now but when everyone does, I believe they will adore him as much as I do.

~        What are your favourite scene(s)/part(s) on “Who He Is”?
Mine would have to be the shower scene and the hotel scene with Ellie and Gage. Adored it.

My next questions are not “Who He Is” related, but the things about yourself that you want to share to your readers and fans out there.


~        If you are not writing, what do you normally do on your free time?
 I’m usually reading to open up my mind a bit. Or I’ll watch a ton of movies and stuff my face with a bunch of junk. Movies actually help me think, too. Haha.


~        What type of genre do you normally read?
  I normally read contemporary and paranormal romances. They’re my faves.


~        Who is your favourite author?
I have a ton. I don’t think I could name all of them. LOL.

~        What is your favourite book that you’ve read so far? Why?
Um… I’d have to say my recent fave is Falling into You by Jasinda Wilder.


~        Who is your book boyfriend?
Kellan Kyle. Always. LOL.


~        Are you a vamp, were-, or a fairy chick? Favourite vamp, were-, or fairy character? Why?
I’m a vamp chick! My favorite vamp is Erik from True Blood! Because he’s freaking hot!!



~        And lastly, any other things that you would like to share to your readers and fans about yourself and your future works/novels?
I plan on making the best out of the FireNine series. I love these boys with all my heart. I really wish they were real. I can’t wait to get their stories out there.
