BLOGGER BOOK FAIR 2013
WELCOME
This year our theme is The World for a Shilling, based on the cost of the entrance fee back in 1851 for the Great Exhibition held in Hyde Park, England.
Six million people or roughly one third of the population of Great Britain visited the exhibition.
In keeping with the theme of the Great Exhibition of 1851, I’d like to announce a CONTEST and then introduce two fabulous authors and their work.
First, the CONTEST:
Read the blurb of Wild Point Island and leave a one sentence comment with your email address. During each of the four days of the Blogger Book Fair, one reader will win a free Kindle e book of my newest paranormal romance. At the end of Day Four, I will pick again from all the readers who have participated. The prize: $25.00 Amazon gift certificate.
And, now the first author:
Rachel McClellan
Rachel
McClellan was born and raised in Idaho, a place secretly known for its
supernatural creatures. When she's not in her writing lair, she's partying with
her husband and four crazy, yet lovable, children. Rachel's love for storytelling
began as a child when the moon first possessed the night. For when the lights
went out, her imagination painted a whole new world. And what a scary world it
was...
Her Work:
Fractured Light
Llona
Reese is used to living on the run. After the Vykens killed her parents, she
knew they would eventually come for her too. She can’t take any chances. But
when she starts to make friends for the first time in her life, she gets
careless and lets her guard down. Big mistake.
As an Aura, Llona can manipulate light and harness its energy. But if she wants to survive, Llona will have to defy the Auran Council and learn to use her power as a weapon against the Vyken whose sole desire is to take her light. Now she’s caught in something even bigger than she can understand, with a power she can’t wield, and no one she can trust, except, just maybe, a mysterious stranger.

Fractured Soul
Llona
will do whatever it takes to protect her new found friends and home, but the
dark plot threatening Lucent Academy, a school that’s supposed to be a safe
place for Auras, may be too powerful for even Llona to defeat. This fast-paced
tale of love, loyalty, and overcoming the darkness will keep you on the edge of
your seat until the last page!
Endorsements
“I love these books! A kick-butt heroine and a
hottie love interest, with a refreshingly original concept. Be prepared—once
you start, these are hard to put down.”
—Paula Cotton, book reviewer at
ReadingLark.blogspot.com
“Fractured Soul is a brilliant
sequel, exceeding even the remarkable first book in the series. It will haunt
your every waking moment between the times you’re reading it, and it will stay
with you long after you’ve finished.
It’s an amazingly well written and engrossing story that I highly recommend—after
you’ve read the first one, of course.”
—Cindy Bennett, bestselling
author of Geek Girl and
Rapunzel Untangled

And our second author, Sherry Soule
Hi everybody, I’m author, Sherry Soule—waving from the SF
Bay Area in Northern California.
Today author, Sherry Soule is offering us a sneak peek at the second
book in her popular YA series, MOONLIGHT MAYHEM.
Special Excerpt taken from MOONLIGHT
MAYHEM
In his soft gaze lingered a mute invitation.
A fervent question. Trent took my hand. Unspoken feelings tangled as our
fingers intertwined. Complicated veil of yearning drifted between our eyes. My
arms encircled his waist. I rested my head against his chest. Inhaled his
scent, a mixture of soap, minty toothpaste, and boy. Listened to his heartbeat.
We exhaled simultaneously and he pressed his face in my hair. Calming and at
the same time-intense.
I clutched at the front of his shirt and
tilted my head. Our lips were a breath apart. My stomach flipped with
anticipation. Our mouths touched lightly, but it quickly turned into a
passionate kiss and we melted together. All thoughts of lycans and death
disappeared. My eyelids fluttered closed. My arms wrapped around his body like
entwining ivy. Clinging and pulling him to me, kissing him with all the
repressed emotions whirling inside me.
Apart from the knee-jerking kiss, something
tangible stirred inside me. It inhabited the center of my chest, a murmur of
power unfurling. It tickled, then pulsed, then burned. The strange, thrumming
energy felt like a bud blossoming into a flower and stretching toward the sun.
Black magick. My magick. His magick.
I should have been more scared and worried.
But I wasn’t, although my heart beat too fast. And my voice had dried up. I
forced myself to break the kiss, but didn’t move—because this is the weird
part—I didn’t want him to stop holding me….
