COVER REVEAL!!
Jewel of Darkness
(Gypsy Healer Series 3)
by
Quinn Loftis
Dalton Black never thought he'd find his true mate. His dark past convinced him that he could never be worthy of one, but the Great Luna did not agree. She saw fit to give him a gypsy healer, the purest of heart among their kind. And now that he's finally found her, she slips through his grasp and into the hands of Volcan, a corrupt high fae driven mad by his own need for power. Now Dalton, with help from his own powerful friends, must find Jewel and rescue her before Volcan can use her blood to create witches and once again throw off the balance of good and evil.
As their journey begins, Perizada will once again lead a group of wolves on a hunt to bring down evil, but little do they know that Volcan is just a drop of blood in the sea of supernatural beings about to darken their path.

My Review ❈❈❈❈❈
I am reviewing this trilogy as a whole because I buzzed through it all at once without being able to stop! That right there tells you how amazing it is! I was addicted from the first chapter. I have a huge fascination with anything concerning Irish so the Tuatha de Danaan immediately intrigued me. Allison is such a kind and loving person, she would do anything to take care of her mother. And then there's dreamy, sexy Ethan. He's always been part of her life and she can't imagine being without him. But they both seem to have a little trouble expressing how they feel about each other at first. It always takes a bit of magic and danger to make you realize how much you care! There's plenty of danger once Aoife comes on the scene. She's completely evil and will do anything in her power to destroy Allison's family. Despite all the evil, I would still love to be a part of the world of the Tuathe de Danaan! This will be a series that I will read over and over! I absolutely loved it!

BITTERROOT BLOG TOUR!!
BITTERROOT Part 1
by Heather Hildenbrand & SM Reine
Seventeen year-old Regan Vuk has lived her whole life under the shadow of her future: the pack alpha. She is fast, smart, and determined. According to her own pack members, she is a shoo-in. But Regan’s dad has a secret.
Seventeen year-old Charlie spent her adolescence drifting from place to place with a mother desperate to hide her illegitimate daughter from the unforgiving reality of werewolf pack dynamics. All Charlie has ever wanted is to know her father--and the family that's been kept from her all these years. But most of all, she wants a place to belong in the world. Where she doesn’t have to pretend she can’t sprout fur and paws at will. Being kidnapped on her way home from prom was not she Charlie had in mind.
When Charlie finds out the only way to fit in with her new family is to defeat her long-lost sister for the role of alpha, she refuses. That is until she learns that the strange and alluring vampire she's befriended, Owen, is the same vampire prince that's been promised the winner.
Regan has no doubt that, although she loathes the vampires, it will be her who "wins" Owen.
Only problem: Charlie's already fallen for him.
My Review ❈❈❈❈❈
Wow! What a great start to the series! My only complaint is that I need the next one now. I was drawn in immediately! Regan and Charlie are so different and they are thrown into such a weird situation, caught between being friends and enemies. Regan always thought her future was set in stone and now everything's changed. And poor Charlie just got dragged out of the world she knew and into a completely different environment. I just know bringing the hot and mysterious Owen into the mix is going to make things even tougher for the girls. This is going to be a great series and I am already addicted!

COVER REVEAL!!!
Title: The Other Side of Gravity
Author: Shelly Crane
Series: The Oxygen Series, Book One
Genre: Sci-Fi
Cover Reveal Date: August 27th
Release Date: TBA
Goodreads Link: http://bit.ly/1NTsnHw
My name is Maxton and I’m a trader.
I live on a soulless planet where gravity, oxygen, and everything else are sold to the highest bidder on the black market. People are sold on the black market, too. You have to work really hard not to become one of those people. Pay your taxes, keep your friends and family close, and more than anything else—don’t get caught by the Militia. But all the rules changed for me the day I found her.
My name is Sophelia and I’m a stowaway.
I’ve been a slave for almost as long as I can remember. Waiting for the one day, one second, for my proprietor to turn his head so I could run and never look back. Now I'm on the run. And on a planet where no one is on your side and people would turn you in for a good meal or a piece of a silver, being on the run on Landu is the last place you want to be. Until he found me.
I won't survive without him.
I can't breathe without her.
Her own books happen by accident and she revels
in the writing and imagination process. She doesn’t go anywhere without her
notepad for fear of an idea creeping up and not being able to write it down
immediately, even in the middle of the night, where her best ideas are born.

Generation Cover Reveal!!
Generation (The
Imitation Series, Book 3)
Releasing October 13, 2015
After months of pretending to be Raven Rogen, Ven
feels less like a clone and more like a human than ever. But when Raven’s
father, Titus—the same man who engineered Ven—discovers her plan to escape,
everything she’s worked so hard for is taken away in one explosive moment.
Now she’s imprisoned in Twig City, the secret
warehouse where she grew up. She spends her days plotting ways to get back to
the outside world, determined to topple Titus’s empire and free every last
Imitation. But Titus’s reach is extensive and his plans are more deadly than
she realized.
In the shocking conclusion to the Imitation series, one wrong move could mean the
end for Ven and everyone she’s come to love.
**SPOILER ALERT – SPOILER ALERT**
If you have not Read Deviation Yet
STOP NOW!
Bonus Scene from Linc
*Two Months After the End of Deviation*
The car
is warm despite the chill outside. My window has fogged and I shift trying to
get a better view. My legs cramp at being bent so long. I stretch them slowly,
first right and then left. My knee pops and I wince. Anna looks over, an
apology on the edge of her lips.
“I’m
fine,” I say.
She
presses her lips together and I know what she’s thinking. We could leave. But
neither of us is willing to give up with so little to report back.
The
mission is to watch Marla, the woman Titus uses as his gatekeeper out of Twig
City. She’s one option among a scant few that we’ve come up with as a way in to
look for Ven. Melanie suggested we follow her and try to find a weakness,
something we can use against her. But the woman is a robot. She goes to work,
she comes home, she watches The Biggest Loser. If we don’t find anything
tonight, we’ll move on. I need to watch, to spot something we can exploit. I
can’t do that through frosted glass.
Maybe my
breaths are too heavy. I will myself to calm down. Anna’s still watching me,
her brow furrowed like she’s still trying to come up with a way to fix me. If
she only knew.
I
pretend not to see her and stare through the window. Outside, the darkness is
lit by the soft glow of the street lamps but it’s eerie to me. Shadows encroaching
on the light. Monsters plotting. Everything in my life feels like a damn threat
these days.
“You
could climb in the backseat,” Anna offers finally.
I sigh.
Anna’s always trying to please others.
“I’m
good,” I repeat, pretending the stiffness doesn’t linger when I reposition my
legs and tuck them underneath the dashboard. We’ve been here six hours and
counting. Not how I wanted to spend the night—with a girl who isn’t Ven.
As usual
when I think of her, I wince at the ache it brings. Anna’s gaze sharpens as she
studies me across the shadowed interior of Melanie’s car.
“She’s
fine, you know,” Anna says.
I
consider pretending not to catch her meaning but it’s no use. I’ve been an open
book with a harsh ending for months now. I pretend to stare at Marla’s
townhouse at the end of the street but I don’t register a damn thing about it.
Inside my head, Ven’s eyes blink back at me, trusting. Her lips pucker
affectionately. All of the images are reminders that I failed her.
“How do
you know?” I ask and hate the tortured sound of my own words.
“Ven is
a fighter. She always has been. She’ll find a way to be okay.”
I ran a
hand over my hair, rubbing hard as if that will erase the images that taunt me.
“You sound really sure about that. But you can’t know. Not really. She’s in
there and we’re out here and no one has even seen her.” Anger, helpless rotten
fury, wells in my veins. Without meaning to, my hands ball into fists in my
lap.
“He
won’t kill her,” Anna says. I don’t know whether to be relieved or dismayed
that she sounds so sure. Anna can be hopeful to the point of naïve. But right
now, it’s all I’ve got to cling to. “If he was going to do it, he would’ve done
it long before that night,” she adds.
I lean my
head back on the seat, giving up the pretense of actually performing any recon.
“How do you do that?” I ask.
“Do
what?”
I look
over in time to see her blink at me, so unaware of her own strength. Like Ven.
I grimace, shove that aside, and force myself to focus on the present. “Be so
optimistic all the time,” I say. “Even when things look completely hopeless
you’re upbeat.”
Sh
shrugs. “My Authentic was that way. Maybe she influenced me. Maybe it’s partly
my personality.” She sounds uncertain and I glance sideways at her.
“And the
other part?”
“Families
don’t give up on each other,” she says. And it’s a matter-of-fact kind of thing
that knocks me for a loop. Guilt gnaws at me. She’s right. And she’s family
too. All of them are now and I’ve been so wrapped up in losing Ven and trying
to get her back, I’ve forgotten all of them are messed up too.
“You’re
right,” I say, forcing myself to sound like I mean it. For Anna’s sake. I twist
to face her squarely. “We are family. And families always fight.”
She
smiles at me but I look away. I don’t know how to tell her that particular kind
of smile, the warm, fuzzy feeling it gives, reminds me of Ven. I don’t deserve
a smile like that when I lost her to a
man like Titus Rogen.
I clear
my throat and look around for something to say. “How’s your arm?” I ask.
She
holds it up and even in the dim lighting I see the scar is already fading.
“Much better,” she says.
I grunt,
glad to see the infection didn’t cause permanent damage. Cutting out a GPS
tracker is risky business. But she’s right, it looks a lot better. Much more
healed than my sorry ass broken heart. I look up at Marla’s house one last time
and start the engine. There’s nothing for us here. We’re going to have to do
this another way.

Imitation for Your Kindle or Pre-Order Your Paperback Coming May 19!
Everyone is exactly like me. There is no one like
me.
Ven wrestles with these contradicting truths
every day. A clone of wealthy eighteen-year-old Raven Rogen, Ven knows
everything about the girl she was created to serve: the clothes she wears, the
boys she loves, the friends she loves to hate. Yet she’s never met the
Authentic Raven face-to-face. Imitations like Ven only get to leave the lab
when they’re needed—to replace a dead Authentic, donate an organ, or complete a
specific mission. And Raven has neverneeded
Ven . . . until now.
When there is an attack on Raven’s life, Ven is
thrust into the real world, posing as Raven to draw out the people who tried to
harm her. But as Ven dives deeper into Raven’s world, she begins to question
everything she was ever told. She exists for Raven, but is she prepared to
sacrifice herself for a girl she’s never met?

Dream of Me Blog Tour!!
Dream of Me: Book 1 of The Dream Makers Series
by Quinn LoftisSynopsis
Since the dawn of time, Brudair, otherwise known as the Sandman to the world, has faithfully lived out his purpose, faithfully performed his duties. He has never questioned his lot among the immortals, until now, until her. Sarah Serenity Tillman, a consummate beauty both inside and out, is a high school senior five months from her graduation. She has great plans, dreams of leaving the small town of her childhood behind her forever. But destiny has other plans, and it’s the Sandman’s job to make sure those plans are fulfilled.The tall muscular Sandman, known as Dair to his friends, dressed in black, wrapped in shadows, is more than a myth. And he has a job to do. His very existence makes him a creature of the night, because dreams, (yes the legends got that part right), were indeed his specialty. But his purpose was more than just weaving dreams for sleeping children. No, his dreams were made to influence, made to ensure that certain special individuals, those individuals who would change the course of history, actually accepted their chosen destiny.
Little does Serenity know that she is Dair’s next assignment. And the dream that he weaves for her, if she follows its influence, will change the course of, not only her life, but possibly the whole of history as well. But she isn’t the only one being influenced. The beauty inside of her was weighing on the Sandman, lighting up the darkness that was his constant companion. Her light was warmth, it was life, and he didn’t understand how he had survived the previous millennia without it.
The Sandman was indeed greater than anything humans had ever imagined, and his purpose was vital to the course of history. So what happens when the weaver of dreams gets so distracted by a mere human that he ignores his own duties in the immortal realm? How can an immortal who was never meant to have a mate, join a young woman in her destiny without irrevocably changing the lives of millions and potentially altering history in a way the Creator never intended?

My Review ❈❈❈❈❈
This was an absolutely beautiful story from beginning to end! Certainly changed my view on the Sandman. He’s actually starring in my dreams now
instead of creating them! Brudair has the whole mysterious, other-worldly, sexiness
goin’ on. And even though he’s a little
dark by nature, he has a wonderful heart and cares deeply for those few that
are close to him. Serenity is such a
pure and lovely soul. She is so honest
and caring; she would do anything to help others. And like Dair, once you enter her circle of
close friends, she is fiercely protective and loving. There are several other amazing characters that
will steal your heart, then of course there are a couple that will make you
want to poke their eyes out with a spork but you gotta have a villain in there
somewhere! I love the whole story of how the Sandman works and the beings he
gets to work with. This book brought me tears of sadness but also tears of joy
and a warm heart. I will be anxiously
awaiting more of this story!
