Author:

I'm a writer who likes fantasy, speculative and paranormal fiction with romantic elements. I also enjoy interviewing multi-talented artists and writers to find out what 'makes them tick.' Sharing experiences is a really great way to learn about the world and ourselves. Plus, I'm a firm believer in rejoicing in other people's successes; it's free and it feels great.

Living in Houston with my darling husband has taught me about the blessings of great neighbors and Texas BBQ. My favorite critics are my two plump cats that purr their pleasure at most everything I write.

Cover Reveal of Dark Winter by John Hennessy

Book Details:

Dark Winter  by John Hennessy

Expected Pub: October 9, 2013

*Cover by PhatPuppy Art ( http://phatpuppyart.com/ )*

 

Romilly Winter is no ordinary heroine, just a reluctant one.She has a gift. She can see the future. But can she see far enough? The world in which she lives is under attack – the dead are rising, and evil follows her at every turn.

Will she be able to save herself – and the world?

From the Diary of Romilly Winter, October 14th. 

"I’ve had two years to prepare for this. In that time, I have never told a soul. Of course, my Nan knew. She’d bequeathed me the mirror, after all. 

Now, maybe tonight, tomorrow, in a few days, the event that I don’t want to happen with all my heart, will come to pass. I’m not ready. I know I’m not ready, and yet, it will happen nonetheless. 

Nan had this thing in her possession for nearly seventy years. She had told me I simply had to be at Rosewinter, prior to my sixteenth birthday no matter what objections my parents raised. She said I was ‘special’, and was the only one equipped to deal with what was coming. 

The problem is, I don’t feel special, I just feel…different, and in all probability, that isn't going to be good enough. 

In just two days time, I will be sixteen years old, and if anything my Nan said is remotely true, I will be lucky to survive that long…"

 

Author Bio:

 

My first book was published in 2011. Whilst I am working on a follow up, I've been interested in all sorts of genres, and I will pretty much read anything.

In 2012, I completed a first draft of an epic fantasy novel and hope to release it in 2013. Closer to release in 2013 is 'Dark Winter' - a paranormal horror aimed at the YA/NA market.

If that's you, and you are planning to / have read the book (s) let me know, I'll always be happy to hear from you.

The Bookish Brunette Reveal‏ : Girl of Fire and Lightning by Harrison Paul

  Girl of Fire and Lightning

(Kaybree the Angel Killer, Book Three)

by Harrison Paul 

 

Expected Pub:  August 13, 2013

 

While Kaybree continues to defend the city against the Angels, she also investigates her mother's secret society.  She wants to believe that her mother will use the Witch's power for good, and wants to trust her heart and conscience to Galen.  But are the Angels oppressors as he claims, or are they trying to prevent her mother's inventions from destroying the world?  Kaybree's fate hangs on her ability to trust Galen, but as he takes charge of the city's defense and navigates its political currents with a manipulator's touch, she wonders which face he shows is his real one.

 

When the next Angel prepares to send a legion of monsters against the city, she journeys into the depths of the forest to stop the attack.  The battle for humanity begins, and Kaybree must learn the truth of her mother's inventions or risk plunging the world into darkness and ruin.  As she confronts the true villain responsible for the Angel attacks, she must also make a decision that will determine the future of all Nordgard.

Kaybree the Angel Killer (series description)

 

Kaybree is a teenage girl from Nordgard, an alternate history Scandinavia where mythical beings called Angels have protected and gu

ided mankind for millennia--until they started attacking fifteen years ago.  Her mother's organization, the Vormund Order, defeated the first Angel attack and has been guarding the borders by the forest ever since.  

 

When Kaybree is called to the city and discovers her ability to transform into a being of fire and lightning, she realizes she is her mother's secret weapon against the Angels.  Her mission is to defend humanity from their former protectors while her mother perfects a series of inventions meant to create a better world for everyone.  But she soon realizes the situation isn't as simple as her mother wants her to believe.  The Angels want to protect humanity as well, and her mother's inventions--or Kaybree's own dangerous powers--could be the reason for their attacks.  

 

Joined by her friends--a bard, a scholar, a reindeer, and a mysterious border guard--Kaybree must battle the Angels while investigating her mother's organization and studying the ancient relics that allow her to use her powers.  She knows that there must be a way to reconcile with God's holy messengers, and is determined to find the truth before a war erupts that could end civilization.

Book 1:

Kaybree versus the Angels (Book 1)

 

Kaybree has grown up hearing stories of the Angels, mythical beings who used to defend Nordgard from the creatures of the forest.  After leaving mankind without guidance for centuries, they returned fifteen years ago, leaving a fiery swath of destruction.  

 

When Kaybree is called to the outpost by the forest, home to her mother's mysterious Vormund Order, she stumbles into the latest Angel attack.  Soon she learns that she has the unique power to fight them: the ability to transform into a radiant being of fire and lightning.  

 

As she delves deeper into her mother's organization, though, she starts to wonder: why would Angels, holy messengers of God, attack people?  Every answer she finds only sparks more questions.  Because Vormund holds a deadly secret--one that could change Nordgard and the human race forever.

My Very Own Witch Hunter (Book 2)

 

Kaybree is a Witch, a being born once a century with the power to break the world--a power which she wants to use to cure disease, alleviate suffering, and build a better world.  But the Angels, mankind's holy guardians, have the sacred calling to eliminate Witches before they can use their power for evil.  

 As the Angels continue their mission to destroy her, they begin striking at her classmates.  As the attacks escalate and a Witch Hunt breaks out in the city, she must balance her need to protect her friends with a strict set of rules to keep herself from harming innocents.

 

But even with good intentions, can a Witch ever use her power for good?  Or is she fated to become the monster that the scriptures prophesy?
