“I love the Angelbound Origins world and just can’t seem to get enough of it!” – The Avid Reader
As the Great Scala, Myla Lewis is the only being who can move Purgatory’s souls to Heaven or Hell. It’s a big job. Too bad Myla goes through assistants faster than a hot knife through brownies. Not that it bothers her much; Myla’s always been a solo fighter.
Then comes the problem of the fading angels. Millions of Heavenly residents are dying. According to a prophecy, the only way Myla can save them is by traveling back in time, meeting King Arthur, and creating her own knights of the round table. The catch? Doing so might end the after-realms in a bloody demonpocalypse.
Yipes.
Myla and her main squeeze, Lincoln, aren’t afraid of taking a few chances (in between kisses). But with so much at risk, the stakes may be too high, even for them. And the biggest challenge of all? Finding those knights.
Because Myla Lewis doesn’t play well with others. At all.
“These books don’t just capture your attention, they straight up demand it. Christina Bauer has created a fascinating and unique world that you do not want to miss out on.” – Bookhalolic Brittany
1. What
do you like to do when you are not writing?
When I’m not writing, I like to read, goof around with my son, and go see movies with my husband. There’s also a golden retriever to walk. It’s a wonderful life!

2. What
did you want to be when you grew up?
I always wanted to be a writer. Some of my earliest memories are people telling me that being a writer meant making no money. I think it’s why I’m not a big money fan to this day.

3. What
was your dream job when you were younger?
Outside of writing, I wanted to work for Microsoft. After I knocked that one off the bucket list, I hunkered down onto the writing thing.

for dinner tonight? What would you rather be eating?
I’m hoping I can convince my husband to go for a falafel run. There really is nothing better than a well-made falafel.

Valentine’s something to like to celebrate?
In a shocking turn of events, I go out to dinner with my husband. You know those people who say, I hate food and would just take a pill every day if I could? That’s not me.

Author Bio:
Christina Bauer thinks that fantasy books are like bacon: they just make life better. All of which is why she writes romance novels that feature demons, dragons, wizards, witches, elves, elementals, and a bunch of random stuff that she brainstorms while riding the Boston T. Oh, and she includes lots of humor and kick-ass chicks, too.
Christina graduated from Syracuse University’s Newhouse School with BA’s in English along with Television, Radio, and Film Production. She lives in Newton, MA with her husband, son, and semi-insane golden retriever, Ruby.
