Release day: Revelation

Today is the official release of Revelation by Erica Hayes (mass market paperback and ebook, Berkley Sensation).  Here’s the blurb:

A seductive fallen angel and a sinfully sexy medical examiner are fighting for their souls in a glittering, near-future Manhattan…

Blind faith is for fools. That’s what Dr. Morgan Sterling believes. And she’s going to prove it by curing the zombie plague ravaging her city’s slums. She’s certain it’s not a sign of the End of Days, but a nasty disease—until an angel appears in her morgue in a flash of glory, begging her to help stop the Apocalypse.

Luniel is not just a fallen angel. He’s a powerful warrior sworn to fight evil in hopes of a chance at redemption. He’s after the demon princes who are stealing the seven vials of holy wrath which, when perverted, will unleash eternal hell on earth.

To stop the plague, Luniel needs Morgan’s help, and her faith. But Morgan believes science is their salvation. If the zombie plague is a demonic curse—and if Luniel is true—he’ll have to prove it. Even if he loses his heart to true love or his soul to Hell…

Erica dropped by today to tell us a little about this book:

The idea for the Seven Signs series came to me while I was trying to unravel the labyrinthine biblical story of Revelation. Vengeful angels, awful beasts, golden bowls of wrath. Such an elaborate scheme to announce the end of the world – what could possibly go wrong? Plenty, as it turns out! Revelation  begins with the hero, a fallen angel named Luniel, who discovers a demonic plot to hijack the Seven Signs and bring on the Apocalypse. The heroine, Morgan, is a scientist who doesn’t believe in angels or heaven… but what if the End is real, and only she and Luniel can stop it? And what if heaven, for their own reasons, aren’t willing to help? I hope you enjoy it! Book 2 of the series, Redemption, is due out in March 2013.

You can read an excerpt on Erica’s website. You can buy this novel at Book Depository or Amazon.
