How does a girl choose between the one who steals her heart and the one who owns her soul?
Matt and Emily were created for a specific job. Raised and trained as the ultimate angel/warrior team, they are sent down to save, defend, judge and forgive, depending on the 'life' they've been assigned. What they don't realize is that the power of human emotions, such as love, anger, passion and fear can take over even the best of souls, causing them to make mistakes and follow paths that lead to confusion and heartache.
When the reason for their training is finally revealed, the angel/warrior team find themselves thrust into a world they know nothing about. Matt takes over the life of Daniel, a young man with a great deal of baggage. Emily becomes Liz, a girl living in a remote village who relies on nothing more than her own strength to survive. A violent storm erupts one night, and framed in the window of Liz's establishment is a frightening face. Let in by the soul of a Good Samaritan, the two visitors bring with them a past full of secrets that could literally change an angel's path and a warrior's plans.
Amy Lignor's Bio:
Welcome Amy, as she talks about Until Next Time as she sees it on the big screen. With a hot, wish list of actors whom she would want to play as her 'Angels' in Lights.
With so many great actors out there, whom would you cast as your characters from your book, to the movie screen?
When I think about seeing Matt and Emily up on the big screen I always make sure to look into my dog’s eyes so he can roll them and bring me back to reality, although that is a killer dream.
I have to say this is the most difficult question thus far that I’ve been asked because I actually want the girl who is on the cover of Until Next Time. But unless one of the graphic artists at the publishing company also moonlights as Dr. Frankenstein, I suppose that’s out.

| Callan McAuliffe as "Matt" |
There are many out there who automatically would shout out that Taylor Lautner should be Matt, my warrior. Problem is, I need his muscles, Shia Labeouf’s sense of humor, the startlingly blue eyes that Daniel Radcliffe owns, and dirty-blond hair. And they do have to be the right age. I just can’t have a twenty-four-year-old play a seventeen-year-old. As things stand in the industry right now, Callan McAuliffe would be my choice for Matt. I say this because of his acting ability as well as the long, lean form he has. I’ve seen him look into the camera and laugh, tear up, stay strong, get angry - so he most definitely has the acting chops to carry Matt off. And he has that innocent face still that looks unharmed by the rest of the world. I’m looking forward to his turn as young Gatsby in the film adaptation of The Great Gatsby that‘s coming in our future. This, I believe, will really show his range. He’s truly a face to watch, and being from Australia he adds that little added-extra kick of the ‘unknown foreigner’ factor.
The female is even more difficult; I wish that Emma Stone could be ten years younger. I need Emily to be able to come across with so many emotions. She needs that anger (without a pout, preferably), and she needs to be able to roll her eyes and fall very hard in love, almost at the same time. The actresses in the age range are lean. I like Nina Dobrev and Abigail Breslin, but I would have to go with India Eisley. (The Secret Life of the American Teenager).

| India Eisley as "Emily" |
She will need those emerald green contacts, but she has the innocent face - like McAuliffe - that would really show the viewer she’s having a very hard time with all these human emotions, but still seem believable and strong to her soul mate. And now that India has experienced the Underworld, she should be allowed to come from somewhere a little higher up.

| Johhny Depp as "Gabe" |
 |
| Kiefer Sutherland as "Mike" |
For the older readers, I have to add this one thing. Mike and Gabe are the teachers, the fire starters, friends, fathers, mentors, etc., so I have to say that Keifer Sutherland and Johnny Depp get those jobs hand down. Certain types of ‘cool’ do NOT go out of style!
And there is a love interest in this one that Dan Radcliffe would be perfect for! I hope I’ll see all of you at the movie!

Until Next Time, Everybody.

Thanks Amy, that's one "hot" cast of characters! Johnny Depp is one of my favs! Making his second appearance on my blog in less than a week, makes me happy! Now, what do you think my chances are that I can have him featured for a third time...
