Cover Reveal--After The Fear by Rosanne Rivers

This is the week for cover reveals, lol. I love Immortal Ink Publishing and this new title sound like a great Dystopian.  Feast your eyes:

A little bit creepy, huh? Did you notice the blood on her hand which is punctuated by the red band. I have to admit this looks a little bit like a horror cover to me, but it's interesting, as is the blurb. Take a gander.

You have not attended a Demonstration this month.

In Sola’s city, everyone obeys the rules. Stay away from the trigger cameras and regularly update your Debtbook, and you just might survive. But having to watch the way criminals are dealt with—murdered by Demonstrators in the Stadium—is a law Sola tries to avoid. When a charming Demonstrator kisses her at a party, however, she’s thrust into the Stadium and forced into the very role she despises.

Armed with only natural resourcefulness and a caring nature, Sola narrowly survives her first bout. Her small success means she’s whisked off to a training camp, where she discovers a world beyond the trigger cameras and monitoring—a world where falling in love with a killer doesn’t seem so terrible.

Yet life as a Demonstrator has no peace. Sola must train her way through twenty-five more Demonstrations before she can return home to her father. At the end of each battle, only one survivor remains.

Sola could face anyone in the Stadium . . . even a loved one.

Cover Reveal--Light Of The Moon by David James

I'm excited to share this new title with you.  It looks really good, and I LOVE the cover.  It's so pretty.  See for yourself:

I love how the light is cast the same on the moon and the man, giving them both a dark and light side.  I'm a sucker for stars and these are dreamy.  Love the colors and the mood.  How about you.

OFFICIAL BLURB from Goodreads: "One night long ago, a constellation disappeared and fell from the sky in the form of a boy.
Secrets are being kept in the sleepy town of Lakewood Hollow, Colorado. Nothing but pools of blood and dripping words are left where bodies once were, and no one but Calum Wade seems to be worried. Life unfolds in shades of red for Calum, until a mysterious girl named Kate Black enrolls at his school and everything changes. Suddenly a dangerous world of dream demons, elemental enchanters, and blood witches unfurls before Calum. He learns that the stars have forever held his destiny, and that the constellations above are much more than what they seem. As Kate and Calum sink deep into a paranormal war, they realize that an ancient prophecy might hold the answers they seek. But life is not so easy for Calum, and he can feel his heart beat faster whenever Kate is close. Worse, Kate's blood holds a dark secret even more dangerous than the war between the demons and enchanters. Soon the two find that there are worse things than loving someone you shouldn't. For Calum and Kate, even love and the fiery power of stars may not be enough to break a curse as dark as the blood that binds their destiny.
A romantic story of true love and dark curses, LIGHT OF THE MOON will leave you breathless."

Cover Reveal--A Prescription for Delirium by Noree Cosper

I've got a treat for you today.  The sweet Noree Cosper is allowing me to help her reveal the cover of her new novel:  A Prescription for Delirium.  I met Noree online and have been blown away by what I've read of hers.  She's got a great voice, and I can't wait to read this book.

First the Cover:

When I first saw this, I didn't know what to make of it.  If it's one thing, it's interesting.  The closer I stare at it the more I see, which intrigues me.

Here's the blurb:

Blurb:

Ninety years ago, Gabriella di Luca promised to protect the family of her dying lover. She failed to keep that promise.  She was too far away to stop the devil that murdered the eldest Van Helsing son. Years later, Gabby learns the devil has resurfaced. She arrives in Hampton, TX, determined to stop the devil before it can lay a bloody hand on the remaining three brothers.

However, madness is spreading through Hampton. She suspects the devil is using this madness to test a drug which has a side effect of demonic possession.  Gabby rushes to end the source of the madness only to fall victim to it. For a woman cursed with eternal life, dying is no threat. However, Gabby must stop the devil's plot or risk losing her most precious possession: her mind.

A Prescription for Delirium is released on December 1^st, 2012.

Sounds interesting, huh?

Bio:

Noree Cosper loves writing about magic in the modern world. While growing up in Texas she constantly searched for mystical elements in the mundane. She buried her nose in both fiction and books about Wicca, Religion, and Mythology. Everyday became an adventure as she joined a group of role-players, acting out her fantasies of vampires, demons, and monsters living in the world.

She embraced her nerdom wholeheartedly.

Noree grew, but never left her love for fantasy and horror. Her dreams pushed her and her hand itched to write the visions she saw. So, with her fingers on the keys, she did what her heart had been telling her to do since childhood. She wrote.

Noree can be found stalking people on Twitter and Facebook.

Be sure to check out her website for news on her works and tidbits of information.

She also likes to ramble about things magical and supernatural on her blog Trip the Eclipse.  It's a fun place to visit, so check it out.

Teaser Tuesday--Sneak Peek at Horizon

Hello Everyone!

I hope you all are having a great week.  I wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who have contacted me via this blog, goodreads, or facebook.  Your kind words mean so much to me, and I am so happy that you have fallen in love with my books.

I've had quite a few questions about Horizon (Elemental Enmity Book IV) that I want to tell you here I am planning on releasing Horizon Christmas/New Years as long as no major setbacks hit.

I'm stoked by your enthusiasm, and I love teasers, so I am going to do a Teaser Tuesday as often as I can until the release.  Also I'm excited for the cover and can't wait to see if Amber McNemar can work her magic.  I always go in with certain expectations and she always exceeds them, so I'm getting psyched.

So here's a teaser for you.  This happens to be the opening scene of chapter one.  I hope you enjoy!

An unrelenting chill in the air beckoned me out of a dreamless sleep.  My eyes refused to open, yet I couldn’t quite retreat into the pull of oblivion.  As my mind focused, I realized only half of my body was quivering.  The other part of me lay within a cocoon of warmth.

The firm object I rested against radiated heat better than a stoked furnace, so I rolled closer to the source, trying to bury myself inside it.  With the movement, my muscles groaned, making me aware of muscles I hadn’t known I had until just now.  In fact, oddly enough, every part of me hummed like I’d run twenty miles in ten minutes flat.

Unbidden images from last night flooded my mind and my body tightened in response.

Heath.

My husband.  

The fire lord.

A tight squeal wanted to race up my throat, but I managed to keep it in.  He was sleeping right next to me, after all.

Happy Reading!

~Christie

Lichgates

The Grimoire turns its own pages and can answer any question asked of it...and Kara Magari is its next target.

Kara has no idea what she's getting herself into when she stumbles across the old book while hiking along a hidden trail. Once she opens it, she's thrown into Ourea: a beautiful world full of terrifying beings that all want the Grimoire's secrets. Everyone in this new world is trying to find her, but most just want to control the new-found power the Grimoire bestows upon her.

Braeden Drakonin grew up in Ourea, and all he’s ever known in life is lying. The Grimoire is his one chance at redemption, and it lands in his lap when Kara Magari comes into his life. He has one question to ask the book—one question that can fix everything in his broken world—and he’s not letting Kara out of his sight until he gets an answer.

Kara cannot escape her new life in Ourea. There’s no going back now.
