Release Day Blitz: Lucid by Natalie Roers

Excerpt:

I gave her a funny look and loosened the drawstrings. A dark green stone 

fell out into my hand. It had little red splotches on it and was hung with three 

small chains from a silver crescent that looked like the moon. The metal of the crescent looked very old, as if it had been pounded by hand. 

“You made me zink of it when you mentioned your dreams earlier.” Kelly 

said. “I zought you might appreciate it.”

“What is it?” 

“It’s a talisman. According to legend, it was originally used by da Lucid as a gateway to da dream world.” 

“That’s really cool,” I said, “What’s it got to do with me?” 

“Talismans are very magical. Dey have da power to make extraordinary 

transformations. Why don’t you keep it for a while? See how it works?” 

“Oh, come on,” I disagreed. “You don’t really believe that, do you?” 

Doctor Kelly smiled. “I believe very much in powerful transformations.”

Bookish News: Slayer's Kiss by Cassie Carver - FREE

Slayer's Kiss FREE until April 15th at all major eBook retailers!

  

Kara Reed is a supernatural failure. But where her magic falls short, her fists get the job done. The criminal element doesn’t stand a chance once she hits San Diego’s dark streets.

When two smoking-hot tenants move in next door, she thinks her love life might finally be heating up. Just being near Gavin and Julian is enough to make her want to offer her body on a platter.

Gavin and Julian know it’s only a matter of time before the truth comes out. They’re fallen angels sent to watch over the king’s daughter, one of the last females of her kind. Trouble is, she doesn’t seem to think she needs watching—unless they’re watching her shimmy out of her clothes.

No matter how tempting her guardians, Kara’s not about to let anything stop her from tracking down a sadistic killer who carves into his victims and leaves them for dead. Even when she realizes her target may be the very scourge of heaven from which her angels swore to protect her…

Contains a kick-ass heroine with a foul mouth, a kind heart and a raging libido, and two fallen angel warriors who wouldn’t have her any other way. Watch out for sex in the clouds, a magical island of hedonism and a love triangle that gives new meaning to the term “hot-wings”.

COVER REVEAL: Circle of Light {Light Series #3}

Empath and Pathcrosser to the dead, Lillian Hunt has finally come into her own as a Sentient being. All seems well in her brave new world...that is, until a tragic turn sends her tight-knit Sentient group on a rescue mission through lore-infested Europe.  Their goal is to save the love of Lily's life—vampire Sentient, William Maddox—from both the prejudice of their own society and the dark intentions of ancient vampires. But how will they keep hope alive, even as time runs out?

Circle of Light is a brilliant finale to The Light Series. DeLucy once again delivers gripping paranormal encounters, irresistible character interactions, and beautiful testaments to the power of pure, unselfish love—but it all burns at a higher intensity in this concluding adventure.  Readers will come away from Circle of Light with a satisfying sense of closure…although certain Sentients may be less than happy with their ever after.

Bookish News–“Enclave” by Ann Aguirre {Book Trailer}

 

Hey guys! I don’t know fi you guys know this, but Im a huge Ann Aguirre fan and when I heard about her new YA novel I was psyched!

Check out the trailer for Enclave:

More about 'Enclave':

Ann Aguirre, author of the Corine Solomon Series & the Sirantha Jax Series, releases her first -ever Young Adult dystopian novel, 'Enclave':

 

 

 

"New York City has been decimated by war and plague, and most of civilization has migrated to underground enclaves, where life expectancy is no more than the early 20's. When Deuce turns 15, she takes on her role as a Huntress, and is paired with Fade, a teenage Hunter who lived Topside as a young boy. When she and Fade discover that the neighboring enclave has been decimated by the tunnel monsters—or Freaks—who seem to be growing more organized, the elders refuse to listen to warnings. And when Deuce and Fade are exiled from the enclave, the girl born in darkness must survive in daylight, in the ruins of a city whose population has dwindled to a few dangerous gangs. As the two are guided by Fade’s long-ago memories, they face dangers, and feelings, unlike any they’ve ever known."
