Inspire - cover

Inspire (Muse #1): Kalliope lives with one purpose.

To inspire.

As an immortal muse, she doesn’t have any other choice. It’s part of how she was made. Musicians, artists, actors—they use her to advance their art, and she uses them to survive. She moves from one artist to the next, never staying long enough to get attached. But all she wants is a different life— a normal one. She’s spent thousands of years living lie after lie, and now she’s ready for something real.

Sweet, sexy, and steady, Wilder Bell feels more real than anything else in her long existence. And most importantly… he’s not an artist. He doesn’t want her for her ability. But she can’t turn off the way she influences people, not even to save a man she might love. Because in small doses, she can help make something beautiful, but her ability has just as much capacity to destroy as it does to create. The longer she stays, the more obsessed Wilder will become. It’s happened before, and it never turns out well for the mortal.

Her presence may inspire genius.

But it breeds madness, too.

And check out the gorgeous cover for INFLICT, coming January 2016!


 
About INFLICT (Book 2)Wilder Bell made a dangerous bargain... For a chance at love, he gave up his life. History knew Kalliope as an ancient Greek muse, but to Wilder, she was simply the woman he wanted to fall asleep with every night and wake up next to every morning. He made a deal with Hades, but the only thing the Lord of the Underworld deals in is death. Now Wilder is wasting away in a cold and wretched afterlife, waiting for Kalli to come for him. She will come. He has to believe that. Because the alternative is worse than death. Kalliope lived her entire existence knowing that she was both a blessing and a curse to anyone she encountered. Wilder was no different. She loved him, and she got him killed. Now to get him back, she’ll have to face a scheming god, a perilous task, and death itself. But before it’s done, the Underworld will take more from her than she ever thought possible. To be made whole, all must first be lost.

Cover Reveal: Elementals (Prophecy of Shadows #1) by Michelle Madow



SummaryElementals: The Prophecy of Shadows is the first in a new series that fans of Percy Jackson and The Secret Circle will love!

When Nicole Cassidy moves from sunny Georgia to gloomy New England, the last thing she expects is to learn that her homeroom is a cover for a secret coven of witches. Even more surprisingly … she’s apparently a witch herself. Despite doubts about her newfound abilities, Nicole is welcomed into this ancient circle of witches and is bedazzled by their powers—and, to her dismay, by Blake—the school’s notorious bad-boy.

Girls who get close to Blake wind up hurt. His girlfriend Danielle will do anything to keep them away, even if she must resort to using dark magic. But the chemistry between Blake and Nicole is undeniable, and despite wanting to protect Nicole from Danielle’s wrath, he finds it impossible to keep his distance.
When the Olympian Comet shoots through the sky for the first time in three thousand years, Nicole, Blake, Danielle, and two others in their homeroom are gifted with mysterious powers. But the comet has another effect—it opens the portal to the prison world that has contained the Titans for centuries. After an ancient monster escapes and attacks Nicole and Blake, it’s up to them and the others to follow the clues from a cryptic prophecy so that they can save their town … and possibly the world.
Releases January 26th, 2016!

Secret Truthwitch Blog Tour


I want to give a million thank yous to the wonderful Liran at Empress of Books, for developing the brilliant idea to honor the truly amazing Susan Dennard for all of Susan's hard work and dedication to the Truthwitch Street Team.  It is an absolute honor to not only be a part of the Secret Blog Tour, but to be rounding out the tour is even better. I am fortunate enough to be a member of the Air Clan in Susan's Truthwitch Street Team and I could not be happier being with any other clan. 

My journey with Susan began back in late February of this year at ApollyCon. One of my close friends, who is obsessed with zombies, had just turned 16 and I could not think of a better present than a signed copy of Susan Dennard's Something Strange and Deadly. From the minute I stepped up to the table where Susan was signing, I knew there was something different about her. I have had nothing but great experiences with authors, but they usually sign your books with a standard tag-line, take a picture with you and off you go. However, Susan wrote a really personal message to my friend and she was genuinely sweet, to the extent that I wanted to tell her everything about me, she automatically makes you feel comfortable and as if you have known each other for years.

Susan Dennard Signing at ApollyCon

When I had the opportunity to attend Comic-Con International in San Diego this summer, I contacted a few authors for interviews and Susan was one of them. Read my interview with Susan here. I introduced myself to Susan on Thursday at one of her signings so she could see my face and to get one of her gorgeous Truthwitch posters. I instantly felt like an old friend once I began talking to her and I might have held up the line. On Saturday, I wondered aimlessly around the show floor and eventually got in-line for a chapter sampler signing of Alexandra Bracken's Passenger after noticing Susan talking to Alex. When Susan was done chatting with Alex she passed me waiting in-line and I waved and nodded a hello. I assumed she was going to do the same and continue walking, but instead she stopped and started talking to me. I do not understand why, but the fact that Susan stopped and talked to me still leaves me shocked.

Most people would have continued walking, but she did not. Later that day, I waited in a stressful and chaotic signing line to get one of the fifty ARC copies of Truthwitch. Then on Sunday I interviewed Susan and it was such a fantastic time. At that point, I had never read a single word Susan wrote, but I felt a strong connection to her and had an amazing time interviewing her. Following the interview I got to chill with Susan and Sarah J. Maas for a half an hour before their panel, even though I had to battle rigorously the day before to even get into their signing.

Susan Dennard is one of my absolute favorite authors to meet, she a genuinely sweet person and automatically makes you feel welcome. It has been an absolute honor to be a part of her Street Team and hype her upcoming book Truthwitch. I am hoping we will manage to get Truthwitch and Susan on the New York Times Bestsellers List.

Release Day Launch: Leveled (Saints of Denver # #0.5) by Jay Crownover

Leveled - RDL Banner

We are so excited to bring you the Release Day Launch for LEVELED by Jay Crownover! LEVELED is a Contemporary Romance novella in The Saints of Denver Series being published by HarperCollins. This amazing novella releases TODAY, so be sure to grab your copy now!


Leveled - cover 
About LEVELED: We all need a hero...let the Saints of Denver begin. Orlando Frederick knows what it is to be leveled by pain. Instead of focusing on his own, he’s made it his mission to help others: sports stars, wounded war vets, survivors of all kinds. But when Dom, a rugged, damaged, sinfully attractive cop makes his way into Lando’s physical therapy practice, he might be the biggest challenge yet. Lando loved one stubborn man before and barely survived the fallout. He’s not sure if he can do it again. Dominic 

Voss is a protector. The police badge he wears is not only his job, it’s his identity, so when he’s sidelined because of an injury, the only thing he cares about is getting back on the force. He expects Lando to mend his body, he just doesn’t realize the trainer will also have him working towards a hell of a lot more. As attraction simmers and flares, Dom sees that Lando needs repair of his own...if only the man will let him close enough to mend what's broken.

  EXCERPT: 

           He reached out and shut the medical file in front of him and leaned back in his chair. His eyebrows arched up, and he laced his fingers together and put his index fingers under his chin.
“What exactly are you after, Mr. Voss?” His voice was smooth and modulated. I was a disaster, a bundle of nerves and anxiety, and this dude was acting like we were talking about the weather, not my entire life and everything I had ever worked my ass off for.
Defiantly I spread my legs apart and slumped back in the chair across from him, making it a point to affect a posture that was as casual as his was professional. I had on a faded DPD T-shirt and a pair of jeans with a hole in the knee, and both were a little baggy since I’d lost some of my bulk being laid up in the hospital after the accident. If the guy across from me was a cherry-red Ferrari, then I was a rusted-out and battered John Deere tractor in comparison.
“I want my life back, Mr. Frederick. I want to be able to move the way I used to. I want to pass the department physical so I can go back on patrol. I want to be able to walk without needing a crutch or a cane. I want to be the way I was before I got hurt.” I was asking for the impossible and I knew it. “And please call me Dom.”
He dipped his chin down a little, and the edge of his mouth tilted up in a slight grin. Damn the man was good-looking. I blew out a breath and lifted up my hands to run them over the top of my shorn hair. I was hanging on to my sanity by a thread and my unexpected reaction to the guy that I was hanging every hope I had left on wasn’t helping matters.
“All right, Dom. You can call me Lando. That’s what my friends call me.”
I felt one of my eyebrows shoot up. “Are we going to be friends?”
