I love cover reveals. I do. It gives everyone a chance to
get excited about a new book, seeing the cover for the first time and reading
the blurb. So, I was super happy when the talented Angela Carling, fellow
author and friend, asked me to partake in her upcoming release cover reveal for
Becoming Bryn. I like to let the cover and the blurb speak for itself, and let
me tell you, I can't wait to read this one!
For months, Jesse has been envious of her twin
sister Bryn and even has a crush on Bryn’s gorgeous, popular boyfriend,
Quinton. When Jesse awakens from a coma to learn that everyone thinks she IS Bryn, the option of actually
taking over her sister’s life is beyond tempting, but there’s a downside. She’d
have to give up Ethan, her best friend and the only person she trusts. Could
she actually live as Bryn for the rest of her life? And if her family and
friends found out, would they ever forgive her?
Available for Pre-Order Now!
I must say, this is one intriguing premise. I can't wait to
see how Angela Carling pulls it off. To me it's got a unique appeal, and I
think, like Angela's previous books, it will have the same ease of reading,
great character voice and will appeal to the masses.
You can learn more about Angela Carling and Becoming Bryn by

Also, don't forget to check out Angela's other books!
Don't forget to check back on July 20th for my review of Becoming Bryn as part of the Becoming Bryn Blog Tour!

So, if Xylia from A Stiff Kiss gets a theme song, well it’s
only fair if Landon Phoenix gets one too, right?
Well, here it is...
I struggled with this one. There were some important things that
happened to Landon over the course of the novel, which made picking one song to
suit him overall a challenge.
For this song, I think it was the words that captured me the
most. I felt like they were talking about Landon and what he was dealing with
in a few scenes of the novel, like it was truly a song about him.
I wish I could tell you more, having said that, but as I
mentioned, I hate spoilers. So, feel free to take a listen and who knows maybe
you’ll like the song too.
Now, of course, I think Landon has some others songs up his
sleeves, but we’ll get to those later J

A Stiff Kiss,

Hey everyone! So, yesterday I posted on my FB page that I was
going to be sharing songs from an A Stiff Kiss Playlist. And that technically A
Stiff Kiss doesn’t have one, but that it’s my goal to change that.
So, first up, and I know I’ve already shared it around but
whatever, Xylia Morana’s theme song is...
Drum Roll Please.....
Now, those of you who know the song and have read the book
are probably smiling and nodding, thinking that it’s a great song for Xylia.
Why yes, if I do say so myself. It is a great song, but let
me expand a little.
Straight up, Xylia Morana doesn’t care about her reputation.
But it’s not simply because she’s rebelling for the sake of it. And I think, or
rather hope—that comes across in the novel. She’s not just this teenager who
doesn’t care what people think and is only out to gain things for herself.
She has a reason. Actually, she has many reasons for being
the way she is. Not all of them are the simple facts of teenage angst, but
rather things that go deeper than that. She spends the course of the novel
being who she is, standing up for what she believes—even if it gives her that
bad girl persona—and she grows.
Wow, does she ever grow over the course of the novel. I
think by the end she’s learned just as much about herself as she ended up
learning about the other characters in the novel.
I wish I could give you more, but for fear of giving away
spoilers, I think I leave this here. And stay tuned, I’ll be adding more songs
to the A Stiff Kiss Playlist.

Today we’ve got
a cover reveal! Fellow Crescent Moon Press Author Lindsey Loucks wants me to
spread the news of her upcoming release, The Grave Winner, to be released May
15th 2013!
And I’ll tell
you something, I LOVE the cover! It’s spooky and attention grabbing and the
blurb, wow. I can tell already this is going to be an amazing read.
So, without
further ado…
Leigh
Baxton is terrified her mom will come back from the dead -- just like the prom
queen did.
While
the town goes beehive over the news, Leigh bikes to the local cemetery and
buries some of her mom’s things in her grave to keep her there. When the hot
and mysterious caretaker warns her not to give gifts to the dead, Leigh cranks
up her punk music and keeps digging.
She
should have listened.
Two
dead sorceresses evicted the prom queen from her grave to bury someone who
offered certain gifts. Bury them alive, that is, then resurrect them to create
a trio of undead powerful enough to free the darkest sorceress ever from her
prison inside the earth.
With
help from the caretaker and the dead prom queen, Leigh must find out what’s so
special about the gifts she gave, and why the sorceresses are stalking her and
her little sister. If she doesn’t, she’ll either lose another loved one or have
to give the ultimate gift to the dead – herself.
