The Power Book Boost & Giveaway!

a heart-quickening novel that will thrill Michael Crichton fans and that T.C. Boyle readers will find wickedly smart

 

About The Power

What if you had the power to heal others but it only brought you personal destruction and ruin? Would you still use it?

When a street shaman meets a horrific demise on Dr. Austin MacLean’s ER table, Austin soon discovers a raw and irrepressible power. But when this power inflicts traumatic effects on three chronically ill children, families rush to accuse him, his colleagues condemn him, and the police begin to investigate in this affluent New Jersey beach town….and so do others when the children begin to show inconceivable progress.

Dara Kleows, a local reporter, is the first to connect the children’s gradual healings back to Austin. The two develop a deep bond but Austin remains uncertain as to what this beautiful woman wants. Is she just after a story, or more? There are those who covet Austin’s “power” and at any cost, while Dara grows concerned by Austin’s headlong march toward his own perdition.

What if you had the power to heal but people condemned you and supected its use? Would you still use it? Read The Power. You just might need it someday when you meet the One, or if that One becomes you.

People believe the world will go out with a bang. People expect it to be crushed under ever-rising waves, to burn in an inferno of all-encompassing flame, to be torn asunder by the same forces that created it.
No one ever thought it would be as gentle as a door sliding open. No one suspected the beginning of the end would go unnoticed.
Yesterday, Lee led a normal life. Today he is alone, lost and unable to remember anything but the pain.
Henry remembers too much. He holds recollections of what was, what should have been, what will remain forever lost.
They both want to save the world.
Together, they might destroy it.

It’s ironic, how worried I am about falling to my death when it’ll find me one way or the other.
It’s also disturbing, this second-guessing that comes with cold, intangible fingers sliding down my spine and a taste of fear. I made my choice and I will go through with it.
I keep climbing, and the white-knuckled hold I have on the railing is the only show of weakness I allow myself. It takes us a few minutes to reach the relative safety of the concrete rooftop, and I put them to good use, schooling my features and body language to resemble a blank slate: an emotionless mask just like Edmund’s.
I certainly hope my efforts are successful enough to hide my astonishment when I see the crowd waiting for us.
Well. Go figure. Five years of preparation and Edmund didn’t think to mention the audience once in all that time. He told me this wouldn’t be a private affair and that six of his brethren would perform the ritual with him, but the couple dozen people milling about and having no apparent role whatsoever are a surprise. A rather unpleasant one, if I’m honest. They look like sharks, sleek and elegant in their suits. Their polite smiles will turn razor sharp the moment they catch a whiff of weakness. If I were any other person, I would take them for lawyers, CEOs or some other species of corporate predator, but I’m unfortunate enough to know better.
Sometimes I swear the only value of truth is to make a task more difficult. A meeting of high-ranking executives who hold age, experience and planning over my head I can handle. A gathering of curious, somewhat amused demons gets under my skin.

YA Readers Little Black Book

 

 YA Anthology Cover

Young Adult Paranormal and Contemporary Anthology

By: Shelly Crane – M. Leighton – Quinn Loftis – Lila Felix – Julia Crane – Amber Garza – AM Hargrove – Jamie Magee – Cambria Hebert – Rachel Higginson

Amazon | Barnes and Noble

 

 

10 Contemporary, Paranormal, and Sci-Fi young adult full-length novels from bestselling authors compiled into one hot little black book.

 

Collide – Sherry has an abusive ex-boyfriend who shows up on her doorstep and claims to be one of these beings. He’s no longer the same person in that body.

 

Survival – Her mysterious rescuer introduces her to a world that Maddie has difficulty accepting as reality. Will this strikingly gorgeous stranger be the key to her future or will she return to her mundane world, scarred from her experience?

 

Love & Skate – He meets Nellie Forrester and thinks he can let it go for her. But how can you love someone when the wounds from your past are still wide open?

 

See – Charlie knew then that part of her was stolen. She was missing memories. Those memories were sacred. They held the key to her sanity. They told her that the sinister whispers, and the shadows that came to life before her, were not as ominous as she felt they were.

 

Dazzle – All Delaney wants is to be normal. That’s why she is drawn to Sam. He can offer her the life she’s always desired. Only Sam has secrets of his own. Secrets that are deadly.

 

Madly – Madly has loved Jackson as long as she can remember, but he is the one thing even a princess can’t have. Can she resist love to become the queen she was fated to be? Or can she find a way to have both?

 

Coexist – Rourk finds himself drawn to Keegan’s side every time she thinks his name. He wants to talk to her but remains in the shadows, silently guarding her every time she mentally beckons him. A twist of fate thrusts the two of them together when Rourk is forced to step up his protection and make his presence known.

 

Starbright – With her parents and Seth, the boy intended to be her Counterpart, by her side she faces down demons and fallen angels in an effort to protect the last inhabited planet in the universe. But evil is not her only enemy. She also fights her future as she tries to decide if she’s willing to give up her human relationships, especially that of her best friend Tristan, in order to save humanity.

 

Prince of Wolves – From the moment Jacque sets eyes on Fane she feels an instant connection, a pull like a moth to a flame. Little does she know that the flame she is drawn to is actually a Canis Lupus, werewolf, and she just happens to be his mate; the other half of his soul.

 

Masquerade – When I look in the mirror, I see a stranger. When I look over my shoulder, no one’s there… Yet I feel watched. Hunted. Afraid. And then he tells me I’m beautiful. He tells me I’m safe. I believe him. Until someone tries to kill me.

I finally get to show you this top secret file!

Dragonfly by Charles A. Cornell is scheduled to take flight on Sunday, March 2nd and all of you can book a seat!

It will be available for purchase and everyone can enter this dieselpunk world.

I was a beta reader for Dragonfly and had a thrilling time being a part of this project. Unlike anything I’ve read before!

For your viewing pleasure I have the three cover designs for this adventure to show you.

*

Charles will be publishing the story three ways:
1) Part I – the first half of the book with a few illustrations… ebook price will be $1.99 but regularly discounted to $0.99 or Free!

DF-Part-I-To-Hell_Internal

*
2) Part II – the second half with a few more photos… Price $2.99
*
DF-Part-II-Victory_Internal
.
.

*

3) DragonFly (The Illustrated Edition)… Parts I & II with 30 color and 30 B&W illustrations… introductory price of $4.99

DF-Main-Book-Cover_Internal

.
.
So the best deal is to buy DragonFly fully illustrated after receiving Part I for free to try it out.
Sunday March 2 is Launch Day for all of them to be published and for his new website launch. Charles will be blitzing all the social media so your support is much appreciated to share, retweet, etc. He’ll be on Facebook and Twitter and has DragonFly boards on Pinterest. And he plans to serialize Part I on Wattpad.
.
A brief Description I’m allowed to reveal!
.
RAF pilot Veronica Somerset has the destiny of her nation in her hands. She’s young, vulnerable and all woman. But inside the cockpit of DragonFly… a plane designed by science and fueled by magic… she’s a hard-nosed, quick-thinking daredevil who has all the right stuff. Strap yourself in for a wild ride in award-winning author Charles A. Cornell’s dieselpunk adventure, DragonFly: a World War re-imagined like never before.
~~~
.
So there you have it folks. Mark your calendar and be sure to grab your copy!
I’ve provided the Amazon purchase links and will add more links as they become available.
Also, I have the link to Charles new website just for Dragonfly and information on how to request your illustrated copy for reviewing!
.
Anyone who would like a copy of the fully illustrated Dragonfly (must be willing to post reviews on Amazon & GoodReads) can send Charles a note with the email address that he will need to use to ‘gift’ you a copy to ARC(at)Dragonfly(Dash)Novels(dot)com.
Also there will be a signup box for this email account on the new website, so hop on over and take a look around there too and signup right there. The website will come ‘live’ at 12 noon. http://www.dragonfly-novels.com/
And  Charles will be ‘blogging’ on Facebook and Twitter all day and would love questions! Let’s get a conversation going!

Expected Publication: Summer 2014

Genre: YA, Paranormal Fantasy
Cover Design: Erica Crouch

Blurb
.
In 1346, Princess Ophelia Dacre sneaks out of the castle to visit her  boyfriend in secret. A perfect night cut short when she’s brutally  murdered.
Ophelia is given the rare chance to become a grim reaper. She must become  Leila Bele, cut ties with her old life, and follow the rules of the reapers. Her  greatest adventure begins with death.

Excerpt
.
                 “The scroll chose you. For whatever reason, she’s your reap.”

                “Well, that sucks.” Leila chewed her  bottom lip. “If I don’t do it?”

                Edon hesitated before he said, “Her  soul will rot inside her body. Do you have any idea what that’s like? She’ll be  a living corpse, a shell of a person. She won’t feel anything including love. We  as reapers, the undead, feel more than she ever will alive.”

                Leila swallowed the lump in her  throat. “How do you know that?”

                “Because I’ve seen what it does to a  person,” Edon said. “That little girl deserves better.”

Jesse’s best friend Tasha has just been dumped and her motto is, to get over it, get under someone else.

That’s just what she plans on doing when she drags Jesse into the nightclub.

It’s a bit out-of-the-way, but better to do the nasty where no one finds out.

Jesse immediately senses something isn’t right. Goosebumps stand up on her body. She wants to high-tail it out of there, but Tasha is having none of it and merrily trips up the stairs to the VIP room.

It’s going to be a night to remember, or not.

My Thoughts

I’ve had a friend like Tasha. Very emotional and sometimes a bit selfish, but usually pretty loyal. I expect that’s why Jesse stayed and watched out for her.

Being the more level-headed of the two, Jesse stays sober. Maybe that’s why she recognizes that somethings off.

I almost liked Eli. Almost. He’s a tall drink of water on a hot night, charming and darkly dangerous. But, nope. He says and does some things that turns me off. Gives off a bad vibe. Pretty much how Jesse feels too.

The best thing about Emma’s writing is I felt the bad vibes, the warning hairs standing up on the back of my neck.

I’ve been in a situation where that happened and luckily I was able to leave. Who knows what might have happened.

Dark Whiskey is like its name. Subtly alluring, with hints of sexual tension, and icy dread.

I would love for Emma to write more about Jesse, especially now that I know what she’s going to be like.

She may be figuring it out and they may think it’s going to be easy, but they messed with the wrong chick!
