We are really happy to have the wonderful Dakota Cassidy here at Book Lovers Inc today. My Way to Hell, book 2 in her The Hell Series will be released tomorrow and Dakota is here to celebrate her releases and you can also win something. Be sure to put all drinks away now. You have been warned.
Five People I’d Like To Haunt
Okay, so in honor of the release of my book, My Way To Hell (the sequel to Kiss and Hell), the lovely Miss Susi Sunshine asked me to come blog.
For which I sent her an email back that contained a blank stare. That was only because creatively, I’m fried. I’ve said it on a couple blogs lately—okay, two hundred million blogs. LOL. I’ve been doing a lot of blogging as of late. Release months can be like that. It isn’t that I don’t love hanging out—I’d just rather talk about anything else but me.
I’m sick of me. If you’re sick of me, I sure wouldn’t shun you =) But I’m giving stuff away—so bear with.
Anyhoodles, I had no idea what to blog about—but then Susi came up with a genius plan. She said I should name five people I’d like to haunt. My Way To Hell has demons and ghost whisperers, ghosts, Satan, possessions and all sorts of supernatural junk.
See the connection? Isn’t she brilliant?
So without further ado—Five People I’d Like To Haunt—
1. Zach Levi
Do you know him? He’s the guy from Chuck, and unbeknownst to him (well, unless his people actually give him the fifty or so gushy, fangirl letters I send him every week. I’m kidding =) ), I ADORE him. Like I might consider getting back into the baby making business for him, adore him. He’s so geeky-cute, bumbling hot, I wanna feed him milk and cookies and then do naughty things to him. Ahem… Anyway, he’s a haunting priority.
2. Russell Brand
You know, the guy from Get Him To The Greek, and also engaged to I Kissed A Girl, And I Liked it Fame, Katy Perry? Nom-nom, ladies! Not only is he funny, but he’s marrying the wrong woman. As a ghost, it’s my duty to tell him so via messages in the condensation that gathers on his bathroom mirror, don’t you agree? How can he know he’s supposed to marry ME, if he marries HER? It’s because he hasn’t kissed THIS girl to know he likes it =)
3. Neil Peart
The drummer from Rush. If I could just watch him play that drum set that’s bigger than most doublewides, I KNOW I could master Tom Sawyer on Rock Band. If you all only knew how often I’ve lobbed my drumsticks at the TV because of him. I’m only on the level Hard on this particular song and I’d really like to hit Expert like I do with the rest. Alas, his genius eludes me. Which shouldn’t surprise you. Nonetheless, he’s a beast on the drums and way older than me. If he can do it at like 60, I can do it almost 44. Do it or lose an ovary and a lung trying, right?
4. LindseyLohanParisHiltonKimKardashianBrittanySpears
Because they’re all one person to me. What I wouldn’t give to be the ghost on the wall of all their crazy. Oh, the shoes, shaved heads, and shaved nah-nah fun I’d have =)
5. Barry Manilow
Because a Weekend In New England at DayBreak in the Copacabana while I’m Tryin’ To Get The Feeling Again would make my One Voice sing with joy. Unless he was singing to Mandy—which would make him a lying, cheating pig! Then I could definitely smile without him =)
Tell me who you’d like to haunt given the opportunity, leave a quick comment, and enter to win stuff! And thank you for stopping by—it’s soooooo appreciated! Also thanks to Booklovers for having me, and for having smart people who can give a knucklehead like me blog help. LOLLOL!
Dakota =)
About the Author:
Dakota Cassidy lives for a good laugh in life and in her writing. In fact, she almost loves a good giggle as much as she loves hair products and that’s saying something.
Her goals in life are simple, (like really simple): banish the color yellow forever, create world peace via hot rollers and Aqua Net; and finally, nab every tiara in the land by competing in the Miss USA, Miss Universe, and Miss World pageants, then sweeping them in a stunning trifecta of much duct tape and Vaseline usage, all in just under one week. Oh, and write really fun books!
Ways to get in touch with Dakota:
website, twitter, yahoogroup, email, blog, newsletter
About the Book:
She never thought he’d be the one.
After defying Lucifer to save her best friend Delaney, ex-demon Marcella Acosta has been banished to exist in the plane between heaven and hell-and there isn’t a shopping mall in sight. After numerous failed attempts to contact Delaney through a bunch of hack mediums, Marcella’s at her wits end. But there’s one medium she’s hasn’t tried yet, and he just happens to be Delaney’s scorching hot brother-the one guy who never gave Marcella the time of day…
But her heart has other ideas.
Thanks to his recently inherited psychic abilities, Kellen Markham has had spirits haunting him day and night-and not only are they just plain annoying, somehow they’re able to touch him. To try and escape, Kellen moves into his sister’s old apartment. But when he finds a box full of stuff that belonged to Marcella-the demon he spent years fighting his fierce attraction to-his not-so-pure thoughts drag her back to Earth. Now that Marcella’s free from Plane Drab, there’s no way in hell she’s going back. Especially since there’s a certain sexy medium she just can’t seem to keep her hands off of…

Wahh.. the first comment never wins, but here goes nuthin.
Who would I like to haunt? Do you have a year? LOL Are we talking like "dream sex" haunting or "scare the bejeezus out of them" haunting?
In the "dream sex" category I have Andy Whitfield, Ian Somerhalder and Travis Fimmel, mmmmm…
In the "scare them" cause they deserve it category there are a few ex-boyfriends I would seriously enjoy getting pay-back on, and the young chick who shot her mouth off with my mother this week deserves a screamer scare, ha ha!

Thanks for having the giveaway! 🙂
I would haunt Clive Owen. He is just too good looking, and I love his voice.
twoofakind12@yahoo.com
Awesome question. Like 2 of your choices too. Zach Levi is totally adorabe and Neil Peart – well since he is Canadian and the greatest drummer EVER!
Now my choices would have to be Nathan Fillion, well he has it all, Canadian, nice to look at, adorable and seems to be a genuinely nice guy – and I want to really know if he is actually as awesome as he appears to be.
Tom Cruise: So I can totally spend the whole day smacking him upside the head for being such a dufus
Ryan Reynolds – as long as I can have nice naughty ghost sex with him — Yummy, funny and Canadian — come on how can you not want him.
Brangelina: I just need to know what their lives are really like.
Lindsey Lohan: Because someone has to help that girl, and I figure if I was around her all the time she would stop the self destruction and I could keep her horrific parents away from her
I would like to haunt either Jared Padalecki or Jensen Ackles, both are HOT! tWarner419@aol.com
Awesome post – Thank you for the giveaway!
Now, for the question, I'd love to haunt Ian Somerhalder (Damon from Vampire Diaries.) He is one hot specimen and I wouldn't mind peeking into his world now and then. I just hope I can touch him 😉

I would also haunt Ian Somerhalder. Cause he's just nice eye candy. I'd also haunt Jon Bon Jovi because he pissed me off a couple yrs ago canceling our scheduled Cleveland concert and giving the date to Pittsburg. The band is finally coming here next week but I'd still make him pay.
Haha, I love this post.
I think I'd like to haunt..Ryan Reynolds. Guy is hot AND funny.
There are a couple of people I'd love to haunt in a bad way (in laws and ex's) but then I'd like to haunt Mark Harmon in a good way, very good way. I like Nathan Fillion too, but he's a bit young for me.

I think I'd haunt Johnny Depp, because I want to know if he's as fascinating as he seems.
LOL–you guys are awesome! I love Ryan Reynolds. Didn't think of him 🙂
Dakota 🙂
I would haunt either…Jensen Ackles (he's like…omg. My IDEAL.), Ian Somerhalder (bad boy with a heart of …Bronze. Silver *maybe.*), or Bradley James (from Merlin–he plays Prince Arthur. Swoon!), and Taylor Kitsch–Gambit from Wolverine. AH! LOVE those guys.
Yeah. Any of those. Absolutely.
mireyahwolfe(at)gmail(dot)com
Thanks Dakota!! =D
If I could haunt a male, I'd haunt Cam Gigandet because that boy is beyond beautiful and he is with an ugly woman. He could do better…aka ME
I'd creep on him while he was sleeping, showering, sexing ;))
Female I'd choose Sandra Oh or Dakota Cassidy. Both are super women in my eyes; Sandra Oh is a gorgeous talented actress and I'd kill to be her, BUT I'd also want to creep on Dakota because she inspired me to be a writer and is such an awesome badass, I'd hope by haunting on her some of the talent and awesome woud run off on me.

Your choices are all very good, and I agree with the Lohan, Kardashian, Spears all being the same. I would haunt Michele Obama, just to find out whats really going on in the White House. I know, crazy but that's all I could think of.

So arfe you saying I'm NOT gorgeous, Rachel? Are you calling Sandra Oh prettier? LOLLOL
I'm kidding 🙂
I think I'd like to haunt my children to scare them into being more tidy. 🙂
If I could haunt someone…that would have to be a toss up between Chase Crawford (he's hot & I think he would have been a better Edward) and Joe Manganiello (yum yum yum).
Thanks for writing great books Dakota!! Especially creating characters like Nina Blackman who is a sailor with Tourettes like me!!

I'd want to haunt all my favorite authors so that I could read the new stories as they were written. And my daughter so that I could keep an eye on her and the grandchild(due in 18 days).
I think I'd like to haunt Gerard Butler. You know…Mr. 300?! Come on ladies, you know it'd be one super hoot to haunt this sexy Scottish Guy, especially if he's wearing a kilt.
Ooooh I would haunt the main actor Jackson from sons of anarchy -yummy! Vin diesel with those yummo arms and Alejandro Fernandez 'cause you can't go wrong with the orgasmic view. Hmm… Great visuals for sure!
I've got to pop out for a bit, but I'll be back later! Keep the answers comin'!
I would love to haunt Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, just to see if they really have movie sex. Can anybody imagine those two looking weird during sex? Also it would be interesting to see how they cope with their 6 kids or if they let the nanny's cope…
I'm grumpy and running on three hours of sleep so I'm thinking my boss for having me work today. 😉
But one a less grumpier day…
1) I would haunt my daughter to see a day of her life through her eyes. Those drama stories from the fourth grade can be really entertaining at times. Can't wait for fifth grade! haha
2) I have to agree with the Britney/Paris/and all the others. I would love to see the view from the other side of the camera. And just to attempt to understand what is going through their minds during the circus they call life.
3) My dog…I REALLY want to know what he does when we are not home. And how he breaks out of his gate. This damn weiner dog climbed the gate (about 3-4 feet high) so I bought another one. Now he pulls the bottom one down and escapes.
hmm johnny depp., cause he is cute and weird
liam neelson/gerard buitler just to listen to them talk with accent :))
blackroze37@yahoo.com
Hiya Dakota!
I'm with the Nathan Fillion haunters 🙂
I'd also haunt Richard Dean Anderson (MacGyver, SG1)–sexiest lower lip on television.
And then I'd come haunt you, Dakota…'cause it would be fun to hide all your hair products and watch you twitch. Yes, I AM that evil 🙂
Deborah Blake (on Twitter)
I would haunt Tom Welling or/and Ian Somerhalder- deliciously pretty dark haired blue eyed boys
RoxanneRhoads @ aol. com
How creepy would it be for me to say I would haunt all my favorite authors O_O
Perhaps my dad. Nah, no fun. How about Angelina Jolie. *swoon*
And now you know I am weird *winks*
robin [at] intensewhisper [dot] com
I`d love to haunt Russel Brand as well!
I`d like to haunt Johnny Depp *love*
I`d like to haunt Paul Bettany!
I would like to haunt Lady Gaga. Imagine her day? I doubt it`s a regular day.
I`d also love to haunt authors like yourself also;) I`d love to see what a day in the life of Dakota is like. How your writing process is and what you like to do for fun. I`d let you go to the washroom alone though.. maybe. 😛
natashajennex(at)gmail(dot)com
i would totally haunt Ben Barnes. he is sex on legs.. YUMMY!
jennzah@ohkamikaze.net 🙂
I'd love to haunt Craig Ferguson to see if he's as funny & random all the time… Russell Brand for the same reason!
For sexiness, oh my, how to pick? The boys from "Supernatural" (Jenson & Jared), Ian Somerhalder from "Vampire Diaries"… are you sensing a theme? Charlie who plays Jax from "Sons of Anarchy"…Vin Diesel, cause OMG those muscles & that voice! Kinda like the bad boys… Humh, I could keep going…
I'd also like to haunt some of those celebrity IDIOTS with more fame than brains! LOL! Maybe I could scare some sense into them.. Probably not, but it would be fun trying!
I would love to haunt Orlando Bloom because who wouldn't?!
lilazncutie1215 @ yahoo.com
Nathan Fillion — no jokes. He is so darn cute and funny!
Or Michael J. Fox. I've been in love with the man since I was 11!
That is difficult! I think that haunting Zac Levi is a fantastic idea! I love me some Chuck. If we're going for sexiness I'll also say Enrique Iglesias. Man is better looking than most woman, but I'd let him be my hero any day. ;P
(1) Tom Cruise – I want to know if he can unzip his skin like the ones in Cocoon.
(2) Lindsey Lohan – I really want to know if she's a trainwreck off the camera as much as she is on.
(3) Nora Roberts – I want to know if its just malicious rumor she has ghost writers or if she is writing all this hits by herself.
(4) Ryan Reynolds – I see shower scenes…nuff said.
(5) Kim Kardashian – I want to stick a pin in her ass and see if it pops like a balloon.
I would love to haunt Hugh Jackman or even Johnny Depp. 🙂 Yum.

Just for the ladies wanting to haunt Nathan Fillion, I can attest to the fact that he really is that funny and had a great personality way back when I went to school with him in grades 7/8 🙂
And I second the Tom Welling, Vin Diesel, Ryan Renolds and Taylor Kitch hauntings! (Drools some more…) LOL
Darn Judi, I'm jealous and I don't even know you 🙂 I'm with the Nathan Fillion crowd. Man, he's going to have a whole whack of us hanging around. 🙂
Dakoooooooooooota
I would haunt the set of Big Bang Theory. 😉
I would love to haunt Orlando Bloom, or even Johnny Depp. But that really wouldn't be fair to me. I couldn't do anything but watch and well, that just wouldn't work – more torture for my self. But I guess that would be okay for a little while. 🙂 But I would also have to find some fun rock star to follow around just to watch all the crazy people and laugh. 🙂 Thanks for this chance to win!
I would haunt Jensen Ackles. The man makes my brain sweat! Though your choice of Russell Brand is worth considering. I do love a man w/ a sense of humor!
sashadevlin (at) gmail dot com
I'd love to haunt President Obama just to see what really goes on when "important" decisions are made.
On the lighter side, I want to haunt Bono. I have had a crush on him forever and he does so much cool stuff.
Oh, Cragi Ferguson's a good one! I'd haunt him, too 🙂
Def CraigyFerg. 'Course most men with an accent give me goosebumps, but he's funny too, lethal combination!
David Duchovny. I would still like to see him nekkid!
My daughter Sami. She's regnent and I would like to see how this plays out!
Whoever was the US President at the time. I want to know what the US government knows about aliens. LOL
Dakota Cassidy. Hey, why not?
Sami's pregnent, not regnent.
I would haunt all the rude customers I've ever had, until they mended their ways, Jacob Marley-style.
Also, I'd haunt the other members of my paranormal investigative team, cuz they'd think it was awesome!
Hum I love to haunt
viggo mortenson and Colin Farrell.
Great post. Cant wait to read it. Kiss & Hell was one of the best books I read this year.
I think I would haunt, hmm for the short list anyway. Johnny Depp, Matthew McConaughey, Brad Pitt, David Boreanaz would be a good start.
I would like to Haunt Christine Feehan and read the books she is wrighting over her shoulder before others get to read it.then may be a few other authors.
sasluvbooks(at)yahoo.com
Everyone? Thank you, thank you for coming out to play on your day off!
Big hugs all 'round,
DC 🙂
Shoot – Bangelina all the way! They're my heroes 😀
dwaynehalim@hotmail.co.uk
This may be weird but I would like to haunt Dakota Cassidy because her personality is so unique and her life seems extremely interesting and fun and I would love to read her books before they are published. hehe. Can't wait to go out and buy my copy of My Way to Hell today!!:)
I would like to haunt Randy Harrison and Gale Harold .
dekad1(at)hotmail(dot)com
Tom Welling (ooh those gorgeous eyes)or Daniel Craig
kzupancic[at]yahoo[dot]com
I would haunt Dr Who and/or Spock.
Travelling around in the Tardis and the Enterprise with them would be such great fun.
Dr Who would probably treat me like companion – I can't see a Time-lord being fazed by the incorporeal.
Spock, on other hand, would spend ages trying to find a logical explaination for the haunting. It would be fascinating!
eva.s.black[@]gmail[.]com
I think I would like to haunt Jonathan Rhys Meyers. *drooling*
Angelina Jolie for sure, and then the president – so I can hear all the secrets we normally miss out on.
heatwave96(at)hotmail.com
soo many to choose from..ex boyfriends, bitchy employers/co-workers, whiny people in general lol!
I would love to be able to haunt Kellan Lutz from Twilight can you say yummie!
kl35402@me.com
Since I spend so much time on my laptop I think I would like to haunt Steve Jobs so I could have some input on future devices.

How did I miss this?
Well I wanna haunt Chuck too 😉
But mostly…(tries to remember who I am crushing on), oooh that big hunky guy from Andromeda, Tyr Anazsasi and yes do not remember his real name, shame on me
blodeuedd1 at gmail dot com
I would totally haunt Alexander Skarsgard. *stalk stalk stalk*
So many to choose from. I guess my top favorites would be Jensen Ackles, Ryan Reynolds, Shelley Laurenston, and just for fun, Walt Disney. The master at work would be a hoot.
caity_mack at yahoo dot com
Matthew McConaughey, Johnny Depp, Gerard Butler. They all are so dreamy.
Crystal816[at]hotmail[dot}com
in an evil way, i would haunt my ex-husband and pull some poultergeist moves on him….trust me, he deserves it…
in a sexy way, my dream list to haunt (at the moment) is nathan fillion, charlie cox (with the longer hair like he had in stardust), and andrew lee potts. sigh!
k_sunshine1977 at yahoo dot com
I wouldn't want to haunt anyone whom I like, because I'd be sorry for the guy, so I'd haunt Paris Hilton instead, now that would be fun:)
spamscape [at] gmail [dot] com
Who would I like to haunt…hmm…I guess anyone from my high school. The majority of them really annoyed me and I would like to cause a little chaos for them as well. That being said I wouldn't mind causing a little haunting chaos for my annoying customers or a few other "work related" people. 😉
haha! LindseyLohanParisHiltonKimKardashianBrittanySpears would be fun to haunt because they would provide endless entertainment.
I would love to haunt Matthew Gray Gubler (yum!) and as another commenter said, Brangelina because I really would love to know what their life is really like (what is real and what is for the cameras)
throuthehaze at gmail dot com
I would like to haunt Henry Cavill, but so that he will see me, fall under my charm and then seek me out and when we meet he will recognize me for the friendly charming ghost he had great discussions with lol ;-D
Congrats on your new release Dakota, it sounds fantastic! 🙂
stella.exlibris (at) gmail (dot) com
i'd love to haunt hugh jackman, just because i'd want to get the chance to see him IRL and drool a little.
i'd also like to haunt (like seriously haunt) the 2 guys who tortured me the most in high school about my big breasts!
great question!
thanks for the chance to win!
stampitchick at yahoo dot ca
oh I would love to hunt Michael Weatherly – he's so cute *gg*
thanks so much for being here!
Haunting somebody would be fun…It's so hard to choose!!! It would be fun to pick someone I really admire like Kim Richey (musician). Or someone who I have a crush on Robert Pattinson (yes, I admit it). Or someone I just want to torment — my ex.
Can I haunt all three?
Emily ebdye1(at)gmail
O M G….
All 5 of your haunts would be mine! I am floored you would haunt Neil Peart! Loved him for decades!! Russel Brandt!! Adore him… might have to jump Katy Perry in an alley or something. Lindsey Lohan 'cause that girls got some mad stuff goin' on in her life. Barry manilow because all my best memories are to his music when I was a kid, late at night…lol. Zach is hot too but I think I am gonna go with John Cusack 'cause I'm an 80's girl and he rocks my world!!
michele p.
nedsped at gmail dot com
I would LOVE to haunt Johnny Depp or Édgar Ramírez. I sw him on Domino with Keira Knightley and fell in love…
xnzkisha17@yahoo.com
I wouldn't pick a crush to haunt, because I have a feeling that seeing them in all their private moments, gross as well as the good stuff would be a total turn off. I'd rather keep the fantasy.
I'd pick Linda Howard or Nora Roberts so I wouldn't miss any of their books even in death.

LOL that's an easy one, I'd haunt my husband….forget that "over her dead body" movie or what ever it's called…..you're not remarrying ever!…or dating…or even looking at another woman
Sweetimpishpixie(AT)gmail(DOT)com
I'll go with Gerard Butler, Ewan Macgregor, Craig Ferguson, and Travis Fimmel.
marlenebreakfield(at)yahoo(dot)com
Hmm, I would love to haunt Johnny Depp or Alan Rickman or perhaps Pierce Brosnan — any of those would be very, very nice 🙂
