Hi ya’ll! Welcome to my stop on the January Black Blog Tour.

Tour Schedule

January Black

Sixteen-year-old genius Matty Ducayn has never fit in on The Hill, an ordered place seriously lacking a sense of humor. After his school’s headmaster expels him for a small act of mischief, Matty’s future looks grim until King Hadrian comes to his rescue with a challenge: answer a question for a master’s diploma.

More than a second chance, this means freedom. Masters can choose where they work, a rarity among Regents, and the question is simple.

What was January Black?

It’s a ship. Everyone knows that. Hadrian rejects that answer, though, and Matty becomes compelled by curiosity and pride to solve the puzzle. When his search for an answer turns up long-buried state secrets, Matty’s journey becomes a collision course with a deadly royal decree. He’s been set up to fail, which forces him to choose. Run for his life with the challenge lost…or call the king’s bluff.

Praise

Refreshingly intelligent and loads of fun!

I lost a few hours as I read this book. It’s a Young Adult novel that is refreshingly and astonishingly intelligent, and the love story is perfectly played out.

~Christine Ashworth, Amazon Review

The mystery was intriguing – I loved how Wendy Russo weaved in all her secrets throughout the book, how she incorporated just enough to keep you reading, while never actually divulging much of anything. I was guessing for most of it and that’s pretty hard to make me do.

~Julie, Clean Teen Reads

Wendy Russo has created a masterpiece.

Author Wendy S. Russo

Wendy S. Russo got her start writing in the sixth grade. That story involved a talisman with crystals that had to be found and assembled before bad things happened, and dialog that read like classroom roll call. Since then, she’s majored in journalism (for one semester), published poetry, taken a course on short novels, and watched most everything ever filmed by Quentin Tarantino. A Wyoming native transplanted in Baton Rouge, Wendy works for Louisiana State University as an IT analyst. She’s a wife, a mom, a Tiger, a Who Dat, and she falls asleep on her couch at 8:30 on weeknights.

“Wh–what’s the time?” I asked.

My mother checked her watch. “A few minutes before sundown.”

“It’s starting,” I said through gritted teeth.

My parents didn’t need telling twice. They left the basement so they didn’t have to witness the worst of my affliction.

How about you? Got a tease? Tell me!

The Space Between

Title: The Space Between

Author : Victoria H. Smith

Release date: April 2, 2013

Age Group:  New Adult

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tour organized by: AToMR Tours

Amazon | Goodreads

 

When Drake started the night at his father’s campaign fundraiser, he never imagined he’d end it being conned into buying drugs on the West Side. Losing high-stakes poker has its consequences, but he’d repeatedly face them just to hear Lacey Douglas sing. Drake sees Lacey light up the stage, and he has to have her. But his intentions for being on her side of town turn out to be the reason he can’t.

Chicago native Lacey has dreams of the opera, but life has its obstacles. Lacey has come to know her hardships as part of living in the real world and accepts them fully. When Lacey meets the intense and invigorating Drake, a fire is lit inside her, unleashing those dreams again.

Two paths that should have never crossed prove to create the exact pairing the other needs. But when their worlds take time to catch up, everything they have is tested. Finding the space between the two sides that challenge them will be hard, but it’s the only place that will keep them together.

The Space Between is a new adult contemporary romance.

(Lacey is the main female character in The Space Between)

My Take on Lacey

By Victoria H. Smith

Lacey’s Motivations

            Lacey is a very complex character. She longs to be able to accomplish her dreams of becoming an opera singer, but her mother is sick and this keeps her dreams at bay. She struggles with this severely and takes on the role of protector because of it. You will see this very early in the story when she first meets Drake at the party. Though THE SPACE BETWEEN is a two person POV story, Drake is the main character. I knew he needed a heroine who had exactly what he needed and vice versa. Drake needed someone strong and level headed, and Lacey needed a free-spirited thinker. Someone who could tell her she didn’t have to be so strong all the time.

Lacey’s Personality

            Lacey is quite serious all the time. She feels she has to be strong for her mother. I knew since I made Drake the one with the sense of humor a serious heroine would be perfect for him. Lacey likes to let loose sometimes, though (like at the party in the beginning of the novel), and she’s very confident in who she is. She’s also got a big heart and shares it with whomever she can. Drake states it’s hard not to be effected by how bright she is. Though times are tough for her she doesn’t let the world bring her down.

Lacey’s Physical Features

Lacey’s physical characteristics come from her biological makeup. She is of a mixed race so she naturally has lighter skin and curly hair that’s full of volume. She’s a bit of a theater nerd with her vintage clothing, and has quite a few piercings. I blame that on her artsy, high school days ;D My model inspiration for her is Christina Santini. She is also of mixed descent.

I hope you enjoyed these facts on Lacey!

It’s time to leave Earth and cross over to the other side… it’s not as far away as you think!!

Megan Thomason

Megan Thomason lives in paradise aka San Diego, CA with her husband and five children. A former software manager, Megan vastly prefers writing twisted tales to business, product, and marketing plans. When she isn’t typing away on her laptop, she’s reading books on her phone—over 600 in the last year—or attending to the needs of her family. Megan’s fluent in sarcasm, could potentially benefit from a 12-step program for road rage, struggles with a Hot Tamales addiction, loves world travel & fast cars and hates paperwork & being an insomniac. Daynight is Megan’s first published novel, but fourth written one.

Welcome to the “Second Chances” daynight blog tour! Over the next few day/nights I am really excited to share with you:

Over $300 of daynight-related prizes as a giant THANK YOU to the thousands ofdaynight early adopters and those who have yet to enter the twisted world of The Second Chance Institute and Thera. Want to prepare for Exile? Or an overday date with Ethan? Have breakfast for dinner? Glam it up in Garden City? There are *12* prize packages to be won! We’ll introduce a new package every day of the tour so you’ll have a second, third & so forth chance to win.
The launch of clean slate complex (a daynight story)… For those who have read daynight you can learn more about what the SCI is up to on Earth (surely nothing good). For those who haven’t read daynight this is a great way to get your feet wet…test the waters so to speak. I warn you though…the SCI’s like Jaws Jr and the giant school of barracuda I encountered on my recent vacation–pretty from a distance, but up close they’ve got a lot of bite ;).
Posters, teasers and guest posts about the themes of daynight and clean slate complex... Plus, I’m fully prepared to sneak in some nuggets about what to expect in the daynight sequel, arbitrate.
Thanks again for joining us on the tour and for your support of daynight. I’m grateful for all of you and humbled by your support.

Daynightdaynight

by Megan Thomason

Paperback, 324 pages

Published November 26th 2012 by Creatspace

Meet The Second Chance Institute (SCI): Earth’s benevolent non-profit by day, Thera’s totalitarian regime by night. Their motto: Because Everyone Deserves a Second Chance™. Reality: the SCI subjects Second Chancers to strict controls and politically motivated science experiments like Cleaving—forced lifetime union between two people who have sex. Punishment for disobeying SCI edicts? Immediate Exile or death.



Meet Kira Donovan. Fiercely loyal, overly optimistic, and ensnared by the promise of a full-ride college scholarship, Kira signs the SCI Recruit contract to escape memories of a tragedy that left her boyfriend and friends dead.



Meet Blake Sundry. Bitter about being raised in Exile and his mother’s death, Blake’s been trained to infiltrate and destroy the SCI. Current barrier to success? His Recruit partner—Miss Goody Two Shoes Kira Donovan.



Meet Ethan Darcton. Born with a defective heart and resulting inferiority complex, Ethan’s forced to do his SCI elite family’s bidding. Cleave-worthy Kira Donovan catches his eye, but the presiding powers give defect-free Blake Sundry first dibs.

clean slate complex

by Megan Thomason

Meet The Second Chance Institute (SCI): Worldwide non-profit and do-gooder organization. Their motto: Because Everyone Deserves a Second Chance at Life(TM). Reality: hidden behind every kind act is a dark agenda designed to gain control and force societal and moral extremes. Currently, the SCI’s pushing Project Liberate, a program to woo the poor and downtrodden into their Clean Slate Complexes—where “everything is provided” from jobs to food, shelter, clothing, and education. Unfortunately, as with all things that sound too good to be true, there’s a catch…
 
Meet Alexa Knight. Feisty, tough and currently homeless in Los Angeles, Alexa agrees to help the SCI in return for medical care for her sick mother. When she starts to suspect there’s more to the SCI than meets the eye will she believe Adam—the boy who saved her life and the SCI’s biggest champion, or Joshua—the attractive enigma who sings about conspiracy theories and pretends to be someone he’s not?
 
Full of action, humor, romance, twists and turns, clean slate complex is a companion story to the highly-praised dystopian novel, daynight. It can be enjoyed before or after readingdaynight.

Thanks so much for visiting fuonlyknew.

Enjoy the tour and Good Luck!

I like this idea by Netflix. Everyone else is doing a series, why not them.

Hemlock Grove is intriguing and keeps you wondering. Is he this or not? What is this guy? And I wonder what she is.

Check out the trailer.

If you have Netflix, you can now catch the complete series.

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvlFJmh6ktU]

Looks mysterious doesn’t it?

I’m over two-thirds of the way thru this series and I’m still unsure about what a character or two is.

While it seems to be lagging a bit now, I think it may be because I watched too many episodes without a break.

I plan on finishing this series tonight and really looking forward to it.

One thing I wanted to mention. The werewolf transformation was amazing. One of the best. And an interesting scene after the person was completely transformed. Never seen that before!

Let me know what you think when you’re finished watching it.

Janir had the misfortune of being born with one of the hated Argetallams for a father. But unlike other Argetallam children, she was mostly granted a normal childhood, away from the rest of her family. It looked as if she would live a relatively normal life as the foster-daughter of a powerful lord. Until one critical day Janir’s powers awakened and she became entangled in a young enchanter’s quest for a long-lost treasure called the Key of Amatahns…

Download The Key of Amatahns from Amazon now!

After her adventures with the Key of Amatahns, sixteen-year-old Janir Caersynn Argetallam returns home to find Brevia on the brink of war with a neighboring country, Stlaven. Her foster-father and even Saoven—a brave young elf warrior—think it will be safe at the castle where Janir grew up. However, while trying to unravel a looming mystery, Karile—self-taught wizard and Janir’s self-appointed best friend—becomes certain that there is danger in the mountains surrounding Janir’s childhood home and that it has something to do with Stlaven’s most powerful family, the Vanmars…

For this tour, YOU are a scav, and there are scraps all over the blogosphere for you to find! On each participating blog, there will be one of 9 possible questions. Answer the question to receive a keyword that will get you an extra entry in the awesome giveaway!


We Launched our Tour on April 1st!!  No foolin’!

A Tiffyfit’s Reading Corner – Review:

The characters were well-developed and the lead protagonist, Terra, was not whiny, angsty, or annoying.

The Reading DiariesExcerpt 

 & 5 Star Review:

WOW!!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE TERRA!!!!!Such a fantastic story I finished in one afternoon unable to put it down. Terra is a brilliant mix between Dystopia and Sci fi in my opinion the story just flows beautifully.

Christy’s Cozy Corner – Review:

 Nothing in the book felt unnecessary. No unnecessary conversations or characters.

LDS & Lovin’ It – Review

And while the world she creates is a made up one, I saw distinct parallels to our own world and the heartbreaking poverty that exists here as well as the developing environmental problems that clearly led to the devastation of Terra’s world.

Tressa’s Wishful Endings – Review

I also really liked Adam! He’s got bright blue eyes, a lopsided-smile, is intelligent and caring. Though he has his imperfections too. You know that he is keeping something from Terra, but I didn’t realize what it was until Terra finds out herself.

Living a Goddess Life – Lemon Berry Preserves Recipe:

& Review:

It’s very rare, in my experience, to find an indie book that is as good as anything that’s gone through a corporate editing process. In fact, it may very well be the Holy Grail of small press books. And yet, on her first lap out of the gate, Gretchen Powell has birthed a fantastic book, self-published. So….consider me a fan!

Passion and Life – Excerpt

Bookworm Lisa –  Review

The ending left me looking frantically for when the second book is to be released.

Blood, Sweat & Books – Review

Terra was a solid science fiction/Dystopian with detailed world building, plenty of action and enjoyable secondary characters.

My Seryniti – Review

 The writing is so good that you are transported to this other world and when something happens I constantly found myself gasping aloud, knowing that the crap was going to hit the fan, but not know why!

Got Ghosts? 2 - More Stories of Real Paranormal Activity

goodreads-badge-add-plus

What if you woke up and saw a ghost watching you as you sleep? Saw things lift up and fly across the room? Heard Footsteps when you know you’re home alone? How would you react? Who Would You Call? Got Ghosts? 2 is the follow up to the hugely successful Got Ghosts? book by Author & Lead Investigator – Steven Wolff.

While they’re not the fictional Ghost Busters as seen on the big screen, there is a real life group of scientists and researchers who not only document and study paranormal activity, they also help give people peace of mind and they are called The Ghost Education & Research Center.

(GERC – A Not-for-profit Paranormal Research Organization – founded in 2001 by Steven Wolff & dedicated to helping both the living and the dead) has been contacted countless times to investigate claims of paranormal activity from the simplest of sightings to full blown things flying everywhere.

Events in these emails are described as terrifying, unnerving, nightmarish and haunting are shared for the first time all here in a compilation of emails from people who are experiencing true & real paranormal activity.

Not for the faint of heart, read each story and imagine what you would do if YOU were in their situation. Imagine it’s you living in the same house with the activity described in these letters like hearing footsteps, being touched, having your baby picked up and moved and so much more… Except for these people, it’s a reality.

Included in this book after each email is commentary from Steven himself, sharing his knowledge and experience from each of these cases. If you’re an inspiring ghost hunter or just someone interested in the paranormal, not only will this book enlighten you but with an open mind, it will also educate you on information that has been gathered for over ten years from countless investigations.

Ask yourself… What would you do if you… got ghosts. 🙂

BEDBUGS (Can you see them?)

SYNOPSIS OF ‘BEDBUGS – CAN YOU SEE THEM?’

‘NIGHT, NIGHT, SLEEP TIGHT AND DON’T LET THE BEDBUGS BITE’
In 1977, an alien spaceship crashed down to earth, landing deep within the soil in a small County called ‘Lemonsville’. During the night people were slaughtered, but the next day the killers disappeared.
In 2020, the area where the spaceship landed was levelled off and new houses were built over it. Many foreigners were now living in the UK, and so more houses needed building.
A small earthquake shook Lemonsville in the year 2050. This was the opening needed for the new creatures of the night to attack the living.
