Life gets more complicated for Devi as Book 3 progresses…
A lot of you have asked me when Book 3 of the Fallen Angels series will be out. I can’t tell you how exciting that is! A year ago, the only people who had read After Eden were me, my sister and my mom (and in all honesty, I was afraid that after I published the book the three of us would still be the only ones who would ever read it). Every time I realize that there are people out there who like and are eagerly waiting for the next book in the series, I am amazed and humbled. I cannot thank all of you enough for your support.
As for Book 3, I’m working hard on it right now. I’m not sure when it will be done, but I it’s very unlikely that the book will be available before this summer, and my best guess is that the book will be done sometime this fall. Even though I’m an author and I know how long it can take to write a book, I’m a very impatient reader. When I finish a book in a series, I want the next one right away and it’s hard for me to wait. So, for those of you who are readers like me, I just want to tell you that I understand how you feel and I’m writing as fast as I can.
I’m excited (and a little scared!) to share Book 3 with everyone. This book is very special to me because it contains the scene that inspired me to write the Fallen Angels series. For me, each book starts with a scene that is so powerful that it makes me want to write the rest of the book just so I can have that scene. I’m certainly not the only author who works this way. I think I remember reading an interview with Stephenie Meyer where she said that the scene that made her want to write Twilight was the one where Bella and Edward are in the middle of a field, and he was torn between wanting to kill her and kiss her (I don’t know if he was sparkling in her mind, but I hope so!). I also think that one of my favorite indie authors, Tammy Blackwell, mentioned the scene that made her want to write Destiny Binds is the one where Scout and Alex are making out in the back of his trailer while his brother is in the next room, and Alex says: “I never said that I was your destiny, Scout, just that you were mine.”
So what is the “special scene” in Book 3? Well, I can’t tell you guys because it goes way, way, way, way, way into spoiler territory, but let’s just say that I’m excited to hear what everyone thinks about it 
When I think of the Fallen Angels Series, this is the scene that immediately comes to mind, and it’s the scene I’ve been wanting to write since I started the books.
Lastly, I want to apologize to everyone who has sent me an email or left a comment on my blog, facebook, or twitter, and is still waiting for me to respond. I’ve been insanely busy working and writing, and as a result my inbox is a nightmare. However, when I get back home next week (I’m currently visiting family and don’t have reliable Internet access), I will respond to everyone. I truly value your time and, as an author, there is nothing more encouraging than hearing back from readers.
I’m looking forward to this fall! Cant wait. I love your books
Thank you Lizzie! I’m glad you’re liking them so far
I want to start of by saying that I love your books. I just started reading two years ago after not reading for over ten years. And in that time I have read over 100 diffrent books and some have been big authors like Cassandra Clare and Stephane Myers. I can honestly say I like your books better than twilight. You have an imagination and passon that I haven’t seen in alot of authors. Your unpredictableness is a plus. I’m constantly checking to see if your next book is out. I truly wish you could write faster because it’s torture to wait. I hope you keep writing even when your done with the fallen angels. My one question is the third book the last or will there be more? Thanks!
Hey Melissa. Wow, thank you for the wonderful feedback! I’m so happy that you’re enjoying the fallen angels series so far
I wish I wrote faster too. Even though I know how much time and effort goes into writing a book, I’m still impatient for books from authors I like (and especially if they are part of a series), so I understand where you’re coming from. To answer your question about the series, I have four books planned.
I have to say I am in love with your books. I read them both in a matter of two days. One for each book. I was touched by the story line. I love way you twisted the concept of God and the story “The Snow Queen” together. It has given me much to think about as a christen and a follower of God. I agree with Melissa I hope you keep writing more stories after you finish with your fallen angel series. You have an amazing gift. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for stopping by Berownie! I’m so glad that you’re enjoying the series so far. I’m also really glad that you’re enjoying the Christian and Hans Christian Andersen influences in the story, and that it’s giving you something to think about
“The Snow Queen” was one of my favorite fairy tales as a child (and actually, it still is!). Thank you for your kind and inspirational words.
I love this series! I discovered the books on Amazon the other day while looking in my favorite genre, Paranormal Romance. I purchased the first one for my kindle, and literally, could not put it down. I bought the second book the next day and finished both books in 2 1/2 days, all while working a full-time job and a part-time job. I had to restrain myself from reading while driving, just to continue the story! LOL! I love Oz! I love the smoldering presence he has. And, a very funny, sexy sense of humor, you know? (lol) But, is it wrong for me to wish, just a teensy weensy bit, for Devi to have one special moment, or kiss, with Camael? (I love him, too!) Even though he is not supposed to feel the way we do, or long for anything like we do, I love how Devi thinks she can see more depth in his eyes sometimes, like he really does care for her. I love how she comes to depend on him, and his character begins to develop nicely throughout the books. And, when he wanted to try the pancakes that was really special to me. I think/hope there is more to his story and we and Devi get to discover that in the third book.
Thanks a million! I am a Forever Young Adult reader and this series is fantastic!
Hey Kirsten. Glad to meet another forever YA reader
I am so happy that you’re enjoying the books! Thank you for telling me. Ever since I was little my dream has been to write a story that someone just wouldn’t be able to put down, so hearing that you were so eager to finish really makes me happy. Yeah, Devi really has quite a choice ahead of her: a really sexy, fun demon and a sweet, kind angel that will pretty much do anything for her. Things definitely get more complicated in book 3, and while I don’t want to give anything away, I will say that the next book has been a lot of fun to write. Thanks for stopping by!
I love your these books !! And I can’t wait til the third book comes out !!
….. I sure hope the 3rd book isn’t the last !!
Hey mirenda! I can’t wait to get the next book out either. It’s been so much fun to write. And it’s not the last one–I have four planned.
I was rereading your first two books over again and I just love them but I was alway wondering will Oz and Davi ever be fully together besides them kissing. And if so would you even write it into the book or just allude to it in the like Stephane did in Breaking Dawn.
Hey BrittBrat. I don’t know if I can answer that since it’s kind of a spoiler, but Oz and Devi’s relationship does get more complicated as the series progresses
I’m so glad that you’re enjoying the series so far!
I have read and own hundreds of books… probably enough that I could start my own library and Im only 19. Everything from sci-fi to fantasy to non fiction biographies and I love them all. My favorite however are my romance novels, especially Twilight. But when I was reading your books, something clicked. Your characters moved me so completely, the way that you describe how Azazel loves everything so much, whether it hurts him or not, how he revels in his own pain just because hes alive and hes feeling. I dont know if thats the way you truly feel about the earth, but Im a total tree hugging hippie and I also have bi polar disorder, so I can completely connect to those feelings. I enjoyed all of your characters so much, these books truly have become some of my favorites and I cant wait to read the third.
Hey Laurel. You and I should pool our collections together and create a super library! I have so many books it’s just ridiculous, especially since I keep buying them. I’m not a big shopper at all, but I am a total book and yarn impulse buyer…however, that’s another story… Your tree hugger comment made me smile because I am a total tree hugger too (which may not be too big of a surprise since I live in the Pacific Northwest). I can definitely relate to how Oz feels about a lot of things, which may sound weird because he’s a demon, but hey, it’s the truth
Based on the feedback I’ve gotten, I think he’s also the character that other people can relate to the best as well–even though (or perhaps because) he often has conflicting emotions or acts impulsively. Thank you so much for your wonderful comments and for stopping by! I can’t wait to get the third book out either, and hope it lives up to your expectations.
Lol that’s too funny I also buy books and yarn impulsively and I live in the pacific northwest… Small world haha
I am really excited for book 3 to be done, but I also understand that it tahrs time to write a masterpiece. So just take your time and have fun writing. Also is there going to be a book 4? I hope that this series keeps going for at least a couple more books. I love this series!
Hey Mistie. I am so glad that you’re looking forward to book 3
Also, thank you for being understanding of the process. I am really excited to release the book, but I won’t until it’s the best I can make it. And yes, there is going to be a book 4! Thank you for stopping by.
Hi Katherine! You followed me in Twitter I’m Pine Fan, I want to say thank you for follow me and I want to say too that you’re brother inspired me, i love all films that he did, my dream is meet Chris and talk with him. I don’t want you think that I’m taking advantage of you, I’m so greatful you follow me. Thank you so much.
Hey Pine fan! I am actually the writer Katherine Pine, not the actress. However, after looking up “Chris Pine,” I can definitely see why your dream is to meet him
If you ever do, take me with you!
Omg, I bet my bff would love this book
because she likes the The Iron Fey series
I hope she loves this!
PS Katherine, you could be the next big
thing!you’ve got competition,but you can
make it work!!!
Cool!
Hey Macy. Thank you for the kind and encouraging comments, and for recommending the books to your friend.
I cant wait for you next book i love the series and lucked into it but wow keep going they are amazing
Hey Andrea. I’m so glad that you found the books and like them
Hope the next one lives up to your expectations!
Hi Katherine:
I have read your books, and I love them. Although, I don’t like Devi at times, specially when she gets herself into trouble and then hopes to get rescued by Oz or Camael.
I’m really looking forward to your next book
It took me a total of 3 days to read to 1st two books. LOVE them. I am looking forward to the 3rd.
Hey Rachel! I’m so glad that you’re liking the books so far, and hope that #3 lives up to your expectations
I left a comment on your previous post but I thought that you may want to know something. I picked your book as a book report and one of the assignments was to make a movie trailer, well I did and I got great reviews on it plus a lot of people want to read your book now. I hope you like it, I put a lot of love into it.

WOW that trailer is INCREDIBLE! I’m amazed and honored (really amazed–I have no idea how you even did that). It’s so exciting that I actually thought “I really want to read this book!” while I was watching it
Thank you so much for sharing it with me. If it’s alright with you, I’d love to link to your book trailer on my “After Eden” page. I’ll say it’s fan made and give you credit of course. If that’s not okay with you that’s fine too, but it’s just so great that I’d love for other readers to know about it.
I would be honored if you did that.
Hey Kristen! I put a link to it on my homepage and on my After Eden book page. Thank you again for sharing it with me, and giving me permission to share it with others! I really think it’s amazing
Thank you So Much!!
I just read your two Fallen Angels books and I love them! It’s kind of suprising how often Devi says something that makes me laugh out loud! She’s a really original heroine in my opinion. And Devi and Oz are so cute together. Also, I think the rest of the characters are all great—I just love whatever is going on between Devi and Camael. Truly, just about the most messed up relationship lol! Not to mention Forneus….I can’t quite stop liking him
I feel like the supporting characters can really make a book sometimes, without taking away from the main ones. I’ve always thought I’d love to write a book, but I don’t have any ideas of my own, so I’ll settle for delving into the awesome worlds created by pros like you! Thanks for writing such an awesome story!! Can’t wait for the next two!
I just now got done reading beloved purgatory and it is one of the best books I’ve read! I can’t wait for the third book to be out, your an amazing author and don’t stop writing!
Thank you for your kind words and encouragement Nakoda! I’m so glad you liked Beloved Purgatory and are enjoying the series so far
Hi.
I just really wanted to say that your books are amazing. I love how your characters are very different from any others I’ve read.
Oz has such a quirky personality and I love how Devi’s not portayed as the perfect heroine like other authors do, but as a flawed human-being that people can relate to. Also I love how the plot lone is totally original and nothing like I’ve read before (which you have no idea how happy that makes me!) I like Princess a lot too since I have a cat very like that…
I can’t wait for the next story!
Soph
Hey Sophie! Thank you so much for stopping by and your kind words. I’m really happy you’re enjoying the story so far! And Princess is probably my favorite character. She has a few traits from a few special kitties in my own life
Have you thought of a name to call it yet im eager to know
Oh and im sooo happy to hear theres more then just three books! This is one of my fav series. You are amazing! Thanks for writing such awesome books!
:):)
Thank you Kendra! I’m glad you’re looking forward to the other two books in the series
Oh i cant wait I am buying the day it comes out. dieing to find out what happens.
Thank you Jennifer! I hope you like it
i cant wait do you have a date planned?
I made an account just to tell you how much I love this series! I can’t wait for the third book! Your book was one of the first I purchased on my kindle and is one of the best! I can’t wait to find out more!
Thank you so much! I’m really glad you’re enjoying the series so far
Hopefully book 3 lives up to your expectations!
Sorry but i cant wait till this fall. Haha. Im dieing to read it! I LOVE this series and seirously i need book three!!
I’m dying to get this book out too! I can’t even describe how excited I am to share it with everyone. I’m so happy you’re enjoying the series so far
Thank you for stopping by!
I SOOO CAN’T WAIT TO FIND OUT WHAT THE SPEACIAL SCENE IS!!!!!!!! AHHH!! AWSOME!!! Anyway, good luck with the speacial scene, and the book of course
(oh, btw, you have me jumping up and down right now with excitment)
Hey Kathryn! I think the “special scene” is going to be really obvious. It’s really…well, I don’t want to say anything, but it changes things in a big way. I just hope everyone likes it as much as I do!
I’ve just recently discovered the wonders of amazon and I came across your series! Ive read both books in a span of two days, and I must say I fell in love with the characters. Like many of your other readers who’ve left comments I too want some romance to happen between Camael and Devi! I can’t wait to read your next books! And also I think it’s great that you take the time out of your day to respond to your fans. Much love and anticipation for your next book! – Amy
Hey Amy! It’s my pleasure to respond to people who take the time out of their own day to write to me, especially since when I first started I didn’t even know if anyone was going to read the books, let alone like them. I don’t want to say too much about what happens in the third book because it’s too spoiler-y, but I do think that a lot of people are going to be excited about some of the things that are revealed about Cammy. I am so happy that you’re enjoying the series so far, and hope you like book three too!
Wow! I just read the first two books and they blew me away! This is deffintly my new favorite series!(and books) also I cant wait to see what happens in the third book! I am so excited to read it! When I got the first book I was about to go to Germany and I stayed up the whole plane ride reading it! I couldn’t get my mind off it! Then, however I had to wait two weeks to get the second book ( longest two weeks EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Thank you soooooooooooo much for writing these books! I haven’t been this interested in reading in a long time!
Just finished Book 2! Super excited to read 3! Don’t stress, Katherine, we can wait for you
Thank you Tiffani! I’m still working as fast as I can because as a reader I hate waiting
However, I hate reading books that feel unfinished even more, so I’m not going to release anything until I feel it’s the best I can do.
do you have a date set?? SO CANT WAIT!!
Hey Maddie. No date yet, but I’m getting closer! Thank you so much for stopping by. I can’t wait until I can give everyone the good news that the book is done
Any book 3 updates?!
Hey JoAnne. Fallen Angels #3 is coming along really well and should be out this year. I’m really sorry I can’t say more yet, but I’ll be talking about it more as it gets closer to being complete. Thank you so much for your interest in the book! I hope it lives up to your expectations
I soo soo soo can Not wait until this next book… I am dying on the inside to read what happens!!! I Love your books!!
<3
Hey Alexandria. I can’t wait to publish it, so I’m glad you’re looking forward to it! I hope you enjoy it
Im dying to read the next book…..CANT WAITTTTTTTT!!:)
Hey madison! I’m glad you’re looking forward to the new book
I hope it lives up to your expectations!
I am completely in love with your series, couldnt put the first two books down. They are unlike anything else out there, I love how graphic and gory they are and then so painful and sweet as well. The extreme visuals and emotions are what makes your books so powerful and real in my opinion. Cant wait for number 3! Thanks so much for writing them!
Also, alot of people are saying they really relate to Oz the most, and while i love Oz, Cameal definitely tears at my heart and I think some of the scenes with him played with my emotions more than with the other characters. His committment to Devi, and the pain that is present in Cameal and Devi’s relationship is captivating.
I just want to say that i love your books. I read both of them in a day. I an just wondering if the angle will become a demon because he wants to be with devi.i just cant waint for book three. Seriously thoughi think i could die from anticipation. Big fan
Oh i should have spell checked that. I am , by angle i mean Cameal, my writing was seriously choppy sorry:( ,seriously though i think that i could die from anticipation.
I love your books. I am a major book worm and devour 3 or 4 thick novels a week. I love writing and I am working on a novel of my own and I’m writing this on my nook as we speak. But i was just wondering when poisoned would be out on nooks? I am a huge fan and thank you for giving me something other than the harry potter series to read! I mean i read them like 5 times a year. Anyway thank you again and i cant wait to read poisoned and find out what happens to devi and oz in fallen angels the third!
Oh and btw, i honestly dont want a love triangle with oz and cameal and devi because it kind of makes itt seem like twilight and it kind of deosnt seem right with oz and devi so in loveand camael seems like her brother or protector or something. If he deosfeel for her, my opinion onthat is he kind of cant fel as much as oz, you know? Unless he becomes a demon… butill let that go fo now. If you decide that, its okay, but please dont take peer pressure , even mine. I just want to hear what YOU write.
k its now 1/31/13 i hate to sound like a nag but WHERE IS BOOK 3 FOR AFTER EDEN????!!!!!!! CANT WAIT SORRY…..
Hey Amanda, you’re not a nag. I get really impatient while waiting for books in series that I really love, and I made things worse for everyone by missing my deadline. I am so sorry for making you wait for the third book. It will be out soon and I really hope you think it’s worth the wait.
