The Impostor, A Love Story is the first novel in a Suspenseful Romantic Trilogy about unexpected love and a woman’s fight for survival. It is a story of growth, acceptance and having the perseverance to begin again.
 Nicole, a young single mother, escapes from an abusive ex-boyfriend and the broken dreams of becoming an artist and she travels to a place she knows little about.
Nicole’s scared of getting hurt again, but Dylan’s chiseled body, charm, and chocolate brown eyes captivate her and she fall in love. In Alaska, she discovers the power of friendship and true love and begins to let down her guard. But her security is a façade.
Soon Nicole’s innocent beauty, taunts a sinister man, and she is caught in a web of deception and danger. Someone evil is stalking her. Someone she had trusted. Will she be saved? Or will she be hunted?

Review: “Wow - what an amazing job Tiffany has done. There wasn't a moment that I wasn't engaged with the characters or the plot. The build up of mystery and tension in this suspenseful romantic novel is superbly done. I found myself constantly holding my breath and nervously listening for creaks in the house. There were some beautifully crafted romantic moments that had me swooning for Dylan, and several moments when I shed a tear. Stunning! The novel flowed very well, effectively creating a good balance of suspense, character interaction and the lovely romance. The ending. Oh my! Tiffany, what an ending you have created. I have no idea what to expect for book two, Obsession and Sacrifice, other than I can not wait to read it. And no doubt it will be as wonderful as The Impostor.” -Becky Johnson, Bex and Books

Obsession and Sacrifice is the SECOND novel in a Suspenseful Romantic series about unexpected love and a woman’s fight for survival. It is a series of growth, acceptance and having the perseverance to begin again.
When Nicole wakes up in the hospital, she has no memory of who she is or how she got there. Only the scars on her body reveal some horrific event took place and she is lucky to be alive…alive…but could she still be in danger?
Her only hope to rediscover her past and avoid a killer's obsession lies in the hands of two men: sexy Dylan, her boyfriend, who used to captivate her, and Bradley, her charming best friend, who has secretly loved her all along. She feels safe around both men but to her, they are strangers. Nicole must decide who to trust, not only with her heart, but with her life.
The two men vow to give her a second chance at life and both will sacrifice everything to make sure she survives.
Review:
Excellent! - Obsession & Sacrifice is here & it did not disappoint! The second of the trilogy gives you a tiny re-cap of the last chapter from the ‘The Impostor’ & sets the atmosphere ready for the roller-coaster of a read that awaits you! Once again the authors’ descriptive writing connects you right at the heart of the outstanding romance, intrigue, suspense & action. Yet again, Tiffany has written another book that I just couldn’t put down. There are so many different aspects to this book & the author has succeeded in making every chapter progress & flow at an exhilarating pace. Overall it’s a 10/10 from me & I’m here pacing the floor again, ready for the book. –Nichole Walsh

The Edge of Darkness by Melissa Andrea - Review



Title: The Edge of Darkness

Author: Melissa Andrea

Genre: New Adult


The way Melissa writes is genius. She has a way of keeping secrets from you, and has you find them out along with the characters. I am usually pretty good with books that do that, and figure it out before the characters. But with this book, I was constantly wanting to read more because that was the only way I was going to find the answer. I love that, because it kept my interest! I read it in 1 day because of that! The story itself is beautiful. I can't help but feel sympathy for Araya. She is a beautiful character. I want a character like this in every book! It just brings more to the story I find. Getting further in the book, there were a lot of juicy moments, and the most shocking ending ever. I definitely did not expect that. I cannot wait for The Grace of Darkness, book 2 in the Darkness Trinity! I have to give this book 5 out of 5 book-a-saur paws!




Bio:
Melissa Andrea

I find it hard to sum up my
life in a paragraph, but I’ll try.

  I am the author of Flutter, The Discover Series! Reading
has always been a passion for me, and writing as instinctive as breathing.
Every inhale is an idea; every exhale a creation.  The only thing I do better than writing you ask? Making beautiful girls. My daughter’s will always be my greatest accomplishment.

I was born in Denver, Colorado–but I will always think of sunny Arizona
as my home. I don’t have a big family, but I’m close with my sister, brother
& my mom. My mom is my hero, my inspiration, and I couldn’t have asked for a
more amazing person to be raised by.

4 things you should know about me: I’m very girly, but I can get down and dirty
with the best of them. I adore the color pink and things that sparkle
(including vampires), I am a firm believer that chocolate cures ALL and I like
even numbers (hence 4 things about me, not 5) Okay, maybe I cheated a little
with my list, shhhh.

The Edge of Darkness Blurb

The Edge of Darkness
After a tragic accident, Araya Noelle is left with a constant reminder that nothing is forever.
She is forced to give up her chance to be the youngest dancer accepted into Julliard & taking over their high society school by a graceful storm of determination is no longer an option. Instead of dwelling over her loss, she accepts the new future she’s been dealt. In a world as black as hers, there's no room for bitterness, no time for regret. Sheltered from the outside world, Araya has become suffocated by a life she has no control over. Until Ryland Dare comes crashing into her life.
You don’t know true darkness until you've felt light…
Like a firecracker, showering her with colorful sparks of freedom, Ryland quickly sweeps Araya away from her grey existence. For the first time since the accident, living in darkness is no longer something Araya wants to do willingly. Unleashed by th


e shadows of her reminder, being with Ryland, Araya touches light. Together they will learn what it’s like to feel alive for the first time.
At the edge of darkness, a ray of light, will dare them both to HOPE.
DARE them to LOVE.
DARE them to LIVE.

Descent by Cameo Renae - Review


Title: Descent (Hidden Wings, 0.5)

Author: Cameo Renae

Genre: Young Adult Fantasy

Tour Host: Lady Amber's Tours



Before I review Descent, I need to say that Hidden Wings, the book that Descent is based on, was far more than expected, and that you should really read it before reading Descent. Descent is a back story from Hidden Wings, and let me tell you, it's a good one. It is a beautiful love story between Alaine and Samuel. I loved their connection! The book itself also explains tons of stuff from Hidden Wings. It's such an informative and eventful book! Especially for the series! I am glad that Cameo Renae wrote this, because it clears up tons of stuff. I would definitively give this book 5 out of 5 book-a-saur paws! 

Book Description:
This novella takes it back…way back…to the beginning. A place where Emma’s lineage begins, and where answers lie in unraveling secrets of the past.

Excerpt:
Lucifer. His voice was like the softest of velvet and the sweetest of honey, filling the Heavens with the most glorious melodies. His music reverberated through every cell of your being; filling, lulling, and entrancing you with his song and worship.
Because of this, he was praised by all that surrounded him. But, it would also be that constant praise which allowed pride to seep into the tiniest crevices of his heart. Pride slowly turned to jealousy. Jealousy turned to hate, and it was that hate which began to alter and callous his once pure heart.
As time endured, Lucifer’s pride, his jealousy, his hate, and finally his deceit... led to THE FALL.


Excerpt from Hidden Wings:
Holy crap… what do I do? What do I do?
Then Dominic’s words rang through my head. Go big, or go
home.
I really, really wanted to go home, but I didn’t think knocking
my mud covered converse shoes together three times was magical
enough to send me there. But heck, this all seemed like some
twisted fairytale anyway, so I decided to try it. I closed my eyes
and quickly clicked my heels together. One…Two…Three…
I opened my eyes.
Crap!
Whatever. It was worth a try. But, I wasn’t Dorothy, and instead
of a witch and flying monkeys, I had a murderous Fallen Angel
and Darkling. I’d take flying monkeys over the Darkling any day!
I gathered myself, took in a deep breath, and trudged towards
the oncoming evil that lurked around the corner. 


Author Bio:
My family is what keeps my heart beating, and my world a happy place to be.

I love reading great books that whisk me away from reality, even if for a little while. :) Writing is my passion. I love creating new worlds and new characters, and taking wondrous adventures with them.

In My Dreams & Hidden Wings were both recently published through Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing. Descent (A Hidden Wings novella) will be released May 15, 2013, and Broken Wings (Book 2 in the Hidden Wings Series) will be released June 1, 2013.

One day I will find my magic wardrobe, and ride away on my magical unicorn... ♥ Until then... I'll keep writing! ;)

Star in her Eyes by Clare C. Marshall - Review


Title: Star in her Eyes

Author: Clare C. Marshall

Genre: Sci-Fi



The first thing I notices about this book, is that it is set in Canada. I appreciate the fact that this author did so, because most stories I read are set in the US or Europe. No joke, this is the first book I have read that has Canada as a setting. I guess that the Clare being from Canada has something to do with it. Nonetheless, I love that. The book itself was well written, and the story was well thought out. There is a complex reason for the happenings at Sparkstone, and you really have to pay attention to learn these things. I loved the little love affair going on on the side! It was adorable, and I think that everyone would like this light read. I am excited for the sequel, Dreams in her Head. I give this book 5 out of 5 book-a-saur paws!


Here is our interview!

1. What inspired you to write Stars in her Eyes?

I’m not sure if I can pinpoint a specific “ah-hah!” moment that inspired Stars In Her Eyes, but I wanted to create a story with a group of young protagonists with different powers, fighting an invading alien force. I’m a big fan of the Animorphs series and I wanted to create a series of novellas that was action-packed, full of mystery, and of course, has some really cool aliens and magic.

2. How did you come up with the story? 

It started with the characters. Originally I wrote this as a television series. I planned out one season with twelve or thirteen episodes, and wrote the first three. Then I left it alone for a while. Then I came back to it because I’d forgotten about it, and took elements and reworked it a lot. But the characters pretty much stayed the same. I wanted characters with different pasts and backgrounds coming together to fight a common foe. Even though I didn’t go into detail about each character’s history and relationships with one another, this will be the focus in the next few books as Ingrid delves deeper into her life and the mystery surrounding Sparkstone University.

3. Have you always wanted to be a writer? 

Yes. Always!

4. How long did it take you to write Star in her Eyes? 

It took me about four to five months, with revision time included. I could’ve finished it faster, but I have this annoying tendency to stop writing at like the 90% mark and go off and do other things! I plan to write the first draft of Dreams In Her Head (Sparkstone #2) in like two months maximum. So far, I’m on schedule with this!

5. Do you have a favorite character?

Hmmm. I like all my characters. I enjoy Sunni’s voice because she’s introverted, and even though we met her at the “end” of her story, she’s got a lot to tell--I’m probably giving her at least one prequel book, if not two. I really enjoy Misty’s character. Even though we’ve only seen her as an angry, driven young woman in Stars In Her Eyes, she’s actually got a very sad, moving past that we will explore in Stars In Her Eyes.

6. When is the second book coming out?

March 13, 2014! I know, a little while to wait. I could’ve gotten a second one out this year but I didn’t want to rush things. I’m actually planning on publishing 3 books next year. You can see them here: http://www.faeryinkpress.com/blog/faery-ink-press-2014-publishing-schedule

7. Are you currently working on other books?

Always! J I am currently working on the sequel to Stars In Her Eyes, called Dreams In Her Head. It will be out March 13, 2014. I’m also working on the sequel to my YA Fantasy epic, The Violet Fox. It is called The Silver Spear. It will be published (if all goes according to plan!) June 13, 2014.

8. What genre is your favorite to write?

I enjoy science fiction and fantasy, with some horror/thriller/mystery mixed in. Mostly I enjoy creating characters with complex and/or mysterious backgrounds and allowing my readers to discover their story. I also enjoy creating elaborate mysteries with lots of secrets that get slowly revealed! Which is what I’m doing big time with Stars In Her Eyes.

9. What is your favorite book?

This is tough because it always changes depending on what I happen to read! My recent favourites are Across the Universe, by Beth Revis, and books by Maggie Stiefvater (especially Shiver), and I really enjoyed Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell

10. Is there any advice you want to give to writers out there?


The best skill you can develop as a writer is time management. Don’t wait for inspiration to hit you. Make yourself sit down and write something. It’s the only way you’ll finish that novel you’re working on.

But all magic comes with a price: no sex or she'll revert back to her old body. Kiera accepts the cost. It's not like she has men lined up at her door. Obeying this one tiny rule isn't difficult at all—until the night she meets Cain, a were-tiger and a soldier with the Eternal Forces.
