Steel Lily Blitz




Title: Steel Lily
Author: Megan Curd
Genre: Dystopian
Blurb:
AVERY PIKE is a commodity. No, more than a commodity. Her existence is guarded at all costs.

She’s a water Elementalist, the strongest of her dwindling kind. She creates steam to provide energy to fuel Dome Three: the only thing standing between humanity and an earth ravaged by World War III. No steam, no Dome. No Dome, no life.

Or so she thinks.

That is, until a mysterious man offers her a way out of having to donate steam. A way to escape the corrupt government of Dome Three. While the offer seems too good to be true, Avery is intrigued.

But when she arrives to her new home, she realizes the grass isn’t any less dead on this side of the fence. Instead, the lies are just hidden better.

…Which means digging deeper.

When Avery enlists the help of her friends to uncover the truth, it may make her wonder if she was better off being a government tool than searching for freedom.

Some secrets are better left concealed, but humankind was never meant to live in a cage. And when you can control the most sought after resource, you can learn to control anything…including the fate of your world.

Faded by Mercy Amare
Goodreads | Amazon | Barnes & Noble 
I left Hope – the only place I’ve ever felt at home. So now what? Where do I go from here?

When I left, I didn’t just leave my home. I left my friends, my sisters, and Stephan… I just found them. I can’t lose them now.

I know that I want to do MY music. I need to remember WHY I wanted to play music in the first place. And the only way to get that is by firing my dad, but that may be harder than I thought. 

On top of everything, I now have cameras following me around everywhere. Even my own home isn’t safe anymore. 

I’ve come to realize that normal will never be an option for me.

Review of Faded

Faded was such a great sequel!  I loved it from beginning to end and literally did not put it down.  Jaded ended with such a shocker.  I really didn't know where Faded was going to beginning, but Mercy did an amazing job continuing the story that keeps me on my toes.  I know for sure this trilogy always will.  
The relationship between Scarlett and Stephan obviously have their bumps (I'm sure you know why if you know how Jaded ended!)  BUT they ended up staying strong and sweet.  Stephan was a great support for Scarlett.  She has to make a lot of important decisions for herself in Faded and she couldn't have done it without him.  I also really love the character that Stephan has become.  For a lot of the book he really was just a guy (a little horny at times and it was hilarious)!  Mercy does a great job of staying true to them being young adults even though they are having to make adult-ish decisions!  
I'm also really excited for what's to come with Alec and Bridgett.  I could just see the tension coming off the page between them but because Scarlett is so preoccupied the reason why that is isn't revealed!
Overall I thought Faded was a great 2nd book.  Even though I'm pretty sure this ending was almost as a killer as the ending of Jaded (but in a good way!)  For some reason while I was reading it I felt that Faded's writing style was a mix between Jillian Dodd and Michelle Mankin.  I don't know if any one has read any of their books but I would be curious to know if someone else felt the same way.  It's a great mix to have!  
I would recommend Faded to any Young Adult lover!  Just don't forget to read Jaded first! <3

Release Day: Never Let You Fall


               
Never Let You Fall by Michele G. Miller
Goodreads | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Smashwords
Orphaned at 7, with no memory of her past or the family she lost, 17 year old Skye Martin is tired of being alone and afraid. After a hard night of partying, Skye wakes up alone in an unfamiliar hotel. All she can remember is the deep voice of her rescuer and his promise: “I am safe.”

Xander has been tasked with watching Skye from afar for the past two years, in order to keep her safe from the demons that hunt her. An easy job - until a pair of red glowing eyes reveal themselves to Skye, and Xander, in a moment of weakness, is forced to break his cover to protect her.

Never good at trusting people, Skye is inexplicably drawn to Xander and the immediate bond she feels for him. However, Xander is filled with secrets and ties to her past that threaten to thrust Skye into a world she could never imagine existed…

As she begins to unravel the truth about who Xander is and the details surrounding her family, she discovers that she might just be the key to saving everything... 

And, most importantly, she finds that there has always been someone by her side who would never let her fall…




A special Excerpt just for you...

“What do you feel?  Anything strange?” 

She flung her hands up in the air as she answered me. “Yes, I feel something strange!  This whole thing is strange!” 

Placing my finger on her lips, I shook my head in frustration.  “Skye, what do you feel here?” I asked again, pointing to her chest.  “How do you feel?” 

She stood for a moment with her lips lightly pressed to my finger, slowly closing and reopening her eyes.  There was a sheen to them that spoke of unshed tears, and as she raised her hand to pull mine away from her mouth, I saw her fingers tremble when  she whispered, “I can’t deal with this, Xander.” 

“Yes, Skye - you can and you will,” I warned her.  “This is going to happen whether you want it to or not.  I told you that I’m safe, and I…” 

Skye broke into hysterical laughter at that.  “Safe?  You’re telling me that a legion of demons is after me and there’s nothing I can do to stop it.   How in your book does that equal safe?”

“You don’t know me, Skye, and you don’t know Rioden and… what we can do.  I told you that I would protect you, and I will.” 

Shaking her head, she took a small step back and admitted, “You’re right about one thing, Xander,” as she wiped a tear from her face.  “I don’t know you, so how can I trust you?  No matter how you make me feel.  Please just leave me alone.”  She spun on her heel and sprinted away, leaving me to stare after her.


About the Author


 Having grown up in both the cold, quiet town of Topsham, Maine and the steamy, southern hospitality of Mobile, Alabama, Michele is something of a enigma.  She is an avid Yankees fan, loves New England, being outdoors and misses snow.  However she thinks southern boys are hotter, Alabama football is the only REAL football out there and sweet tea is the best thing this side of heaven and her children’s laughter! 

Her family, a doting husband and three awesome  minions  have planted their roots in the middle of Michele’s two childhood homes in Charlotte, North Carolina. 

Never Let You Fall is Michele’s first novel and she is beyond thrilled to have finally followed up on a dream she has held for over 20 years!  God willing there will be many many more books to follow.

On the Plus Side: Book Blast & Giveaway



On the Plus Side by Tabatha Vargo
Goodreads  | Amazon | Barnes & Noble

Big girls need love, too, but at what cost? 
Lilly is loaded, not only with money, but with weight. Both things she could do without. But even with her undesired millionaire status, she doesn’t hold on to false hopes of finding true love. So when a sexy stranger comes into her life dripping with seduction, she finds it hard to resist. The bigger they are the harder they fall and Lilly falls straight through the floor in love with Mr. Sexy. Too bad he’s there for all the wrong reasons. 
The chance of losing it all will make you do some crazy things and Devin’s willing to do whatever it takes to keep his life together. All seems lost when out of nowhere he’s approached by a Millionaire Momma with an offer he can’t refuse. But even a womanizer like Devin has a heart and when the short, chunky girl with the carefree attitude breaks through his icy façade, he finds that losing everything takes on a whole new meaning. 
***Warning: this book contains graphic language, sex, and violence. Mature readers only. Not intended for young adult readers.***

Once her daughter was born, writing came back into her life, and she finished her very first novel in May of 2009. 
She is pursuing a Bachelors in English and hopes to one day teach while continuing to write.
