Author Spotlight: Cambria Hebert

Author Cambria Hebert is a woman who has mastered many genres. From paranormal to erotic her stories are each an experiance that you will treasure. 

My first encounter with Ms. Hebert's writing style was in the prequel to the Heven and Hell series, Before. 

This is a short story prequel to the Heven and Hell series. It is approx. twenty pages plus bonus material of the first chapter of Masquerade! 

What if your life was charmed and everything in it was perfect… 
Before. 
This is the story of my past. Of what things were like for me when everything was normal. Of what every teenagers life is like. Clothes. Parties. Boys and summer vacation. What’s so wrong with that? I liked it. I was happy. 
At least I thought I was. 
I didn’t know that lies and secrets were about to take over my existence. I didn’t know that there was someone out there, someone meant for me. I didn’t know that I was about to go on a journey, a journey that would lead me to the girl I am today. 
This is the story that leads up to one of the worst years of my life. Would I go back and change things? Erase everything that has happened to go back into these moments? 
Not a chance. 
This is a story of before.

Then began my journey into the Heven and Hell series. I absolutely loved this series and was really sad when it ended, but enjoy the journey I was taken on throughout the books. 


Book One in the Heven and Hell series 

I'm disfigured. Scarred. Ugly. 
When I look in the mirror, I see a stranger. When I look over my shoulder, no one's there… 
Yet I feel watched. Hunted. Afraid. 
And then he tells me I’m beautiful. 
He tells me I’m safe. 
I believe him. 
Until someone tries to kill me. 
Secrets abound, danger is near, and still… my heart desires a boy with whiskey-colored eyes and far too many secrets. 
Secrets that could cost me my life. 
To stay alive I have to look deep, beneath the masks everyone wears, to find the truth. 
To find myself.

The second novel in the Heven and Hell series. 
Dying at the hands of a psycho was a shock. Having my life returned to me by an angel was incredible. Being named a Supernatural Treasure and being given Sam as my guard was pretty darn awesome. Acquiring a debt for it all—well, I should have seen it coming. 
Now here we are, fighting demons from Hell, caring for a boy that I just don’t trust, and traveling to faraway places to return a treasure to its rightful place. Nothing is as it seems. Everyone wears a mask; everyone puts on a charade. It’s up to us to separate the truth from the lies and reality from fiction. A hard task when my new reality involves fallen angels, witches and dragons… and did I mention Hell? 
Anchoring me down through it all is Sam. Sam, who must face tragedies of his own and is put to the test again and again. 
If we fail in our task, life as we know it—life as you know it—will end. Forever.

Book three in the Heven and Hell series.
Betrayal burns. Death hurts and the clock ticks…
Minutes and hours stretch into days. How long can Sam survive being confined in Hell? I have a plan… a plan with a lot of holes. I need someone who can make up for my weaknesses, someone who possesses the power that I lack. Riley is supposed to be off limits. He’s dangerous, he’s mean and he’s not to be trusted. But I do. 
Beelzebub is on a tirade, bent on revenge. I took what he wants and sent him into the flames. I will wear the scars of his punishments forever. But scars don’t scare me anymore.
On my way to free Sam I find my true path, a secret place and new allies. But in Hell nothing is easy… and everything is cruel. The only thing left to do is survive.

The conclusion to the Heven and Hell series.

I’ve been beautiful. I’ve been ugly. I’ve died. I’ve been brought back. I’ve had abilities awakened within me. My strength has been tested. My beliefs have been tested. 
Yet I stand.
What’s next when you’ve pretty much experienced it all?
The end.
Sam and I are picking up the pieces. We’re trying to come to terms with all we’ve lost. And as much as I would like to hide my head, ignore the reality I live every day, there is no forgetting. 
Riley is in hell—I’m still not sure of his agenda. My mother’s past haunts me. And Kimber… Kimber is being herself. Cole sneaks glances at Gemma and she returns them when she thinks I don’t see. 
But I do. 
When Beelzebub escapes he brings his war to places I never thought he would. Earth. Maine. Home. Now everyone and everything is at risk. This has become bigger than my circle of friends. This has become bigger than me. I have to finish this. I have to find a way to stop him, to finish this war.
I just pray we will all be left standing in the end.

Those are the main books in the Heven and Hell series, but there are some amazing Novella's that go between each story. It was amazing to be able to get to know individual characters that were present in the books. 


Between is the second short story in the Heven and Hell series (#1.5). Read this after Masquerade to get a better glimpse at Logan and some foreshadowing to Charade. 

I grew up in a comfortable house with two parents and a white-picket fence. My brother, Sam, and I used to play with sticks in the backyard and pretend they were swords. There were always cookies on the table and milk in the fridge. Then, one day, things changed. 
Sam changed. 
Life was never the same again. Sam left. My parents abandoned him when he needed them most, and I was left to survive in a house that was merely a shell of what it used to be. Mom cried all the time and Dad expected me to fill the void my brother left behind. But mostly, all we did was pretend. We pretended that things weren’t messed up. We pretended that Sam never existed. 
Until I changed, too. 
Now, everything’s a mess and I’m so confused. It’s like there are two different people trapped inside one body—my body—and one of them wants out. I do things. Bad things and I don’t know how to stop. I’m not sure I want to. The only way I can be normal again is if I find Sam. He’ll know what to do. 
He has too.

A Heven and Hell short story. Heven and Hell # 2.5 
For years, I accepted that Heven was more popular than me. I never liked it but I lived with it. I walked in her shadow, I stood by her when no one else would. When I finally thought her spotlight was mine things began to change. She began to change. Now she hardly ever calls me back, she spends all her time with her hot new boyfriend and everyone at school thinks she’s back on top. She had it all. But apparently she wants more. She wants Cole – my boyfriend. What’s worse is that it looks like she got him. I’ve had enough and she’s going to be sorry. Why? 
Because I am bewitched.

Heven and Hell #3.5
Where I came from everything is perfect. Everything is beautiful and predictable. Life isn’t measured by days, but by infinite joy that never ends.
But it did.
When I fell in love with a man who was perfectly imperfect. 
The price for forbidden affection was steep and my beautiful white wings withered and died around me. 
I was fallen. I am fallen.
Years have passed, and I’ve learned the true meaning of time. I’ve learned to build a wall around myself and exist alone. Yet, when he looks at me… the heart beneath my armor trembles.
But I must remember.
I must remember that I might not have anything left to lose, but he certainly does. And risking him is something I won’t do. So I lock my feelings where they belong.
Beneath.

Stranded and alone with not one, but two wickedly enticing men.

Ava arrives at the airport, expecting to board a commercial flight to Puerto Rico. But a plane ticket isn't waiting for her. Instead, she finds a guy with dark curly hair wearing seriously ratty jeans and holding a sign with her name on it.

He may not look like a pilot, but he is. And he's her ride.

So now it's just Nash and her on a tiny tin can of a plane flying over the Atlantic. When a thunderstorm comes out of nowhere, it proves to be too much for the little aircraft.

Ava and Nash plunge from the sky and end up on an uncharted deserted island.

Stranded.

As if that isn't bad enough, Ava starts to desire more than just rescue--hunger for more than food. Nash is only too happy to oblige... but it seems they might not be as alone as they thought.

And Nash might have some competition in claiming Ava's body... and her heart.

Sometimes all a girl needs is a little fling…
Talie Ronson needs a vacation.
From life.
Since she caught her cheating, loser husband in bed with his assistant, her life has been on a steady spiral—right into hell. Her car’s a junker, her job sucks, and her perfect, gorgeous sister likes to brag about her wonderful life every time they “do” lunch.
In an effort to salvage what’s left of her life and her sanity, she takes the advice of her kooky best friend and takes off to Topsail Island. A week at the beach, alone, is exactly what she needs to recharge, regroup, and relax.
Only, her alone time is about to get derailed.
Gavin Palmer’s favorite activity is walking around in his boxers and eating junk food. He and his neighbors have an understanding. They stay out of his business and he stays out of theirs. He lives at the beach, not for vacation, but for isolation. He’s had enough of people to last him a lifetime.
Gavin’s isolation is interrupted when his normally quiet neighbor starts disturbing his peace. He stomps across the sand to give the guy a piece of his mind… only it isn’t a guy.
It’s Talie.
She’d maddening, nosy, and talks too much.

Maybe what they both need is a no-strings-attached tryst.

Now if those books didn't get you all hot and bothered then maybe you need something a little more pantry dropping. Well let me introduce you to Tarek!

An erotic tale from beyond the stars
Sophie Perez has never believed the stuff she reads online about possible life in space. Aliens are for the movies, for the weirdoes, and they most definitely are not real.
One night on the way home from a late shift at work, her car breaks down. Stranded on the side of a country road, with a dead cell phone, doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.
Until strange neon lights appear in the sky. She thinks it is her imagination.
When an inexplicable circular ship appears overhead, she can’t deny what’s clearly right in front of her. Especially when moments later, she’s taken onto the ship, a human hostage among those who are most definitely not human.
About to become a human guinea pig, possibly worse, the last thing she ever expects is to like the things these otherworldly beings subject her to. In fact, it is unlike anything she’s ever experienced.
Will Sophie find her way back to her planet, or will she beg to stay where her pleasure is literally out of this world?
