Wow, where did the month go? Updates, dates, teasers, ARCs, and NA Alley!

So I blinked and it was July :P I'm so sorry about that. So I suppose I owe you some updates, yes? Here we go!

So, summer hit me hard this year. I'm currently editing the sequel to The Crimson Hunt and its sequel's companion. These are both scheduled to release August 12, 2013. The covers and GR add links are below as well as info on how to request ARCs of The Bringer's Quest for review. After release, I will no longer be accepting so make sure you request now!

Also, The Bringer's Quest's virtual book tour is scheduled during the release week. Sign ups aren't available quite yet, but I'll let you know when they are. Until then here is the blog button with the tour dates :)

So... answers to some random things you might be wondering :)

What's going on with that sequel to The Space Between?

I put it on hold so I could get out The Bringer's Quest and Incandescence. I'm actually starting on it again next week since I'll have some time while my other projects are with my editor. It's called The Dividing Line and you can add it on Goodreads here. :)

How about that cover reveal you promised for The Dividing Line?

I have the cover! It was designed once again by the amazing Sarah from Okay Creations. I assure you it will be soon. :D

How about a release date for the freaking thing, Victoria??? :P

I'm planning on a October/ November release for The Dividing Line. Provided all things go according to plan....

Can we have a teaser... PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!

Fine you pulled my leg :P (This is Drake's POV by the way ;D)

Now, there was something very peculiar going on here. Lacey was in my room and had been for quite sometime. Yet, despite this fact she wasn’t in my bed and underneath me. This was a problem that needed to be corrected.

I intended to fix this problem… right now.

And because I love you here's some fun Drake and Lacey art that my graphic designer, Aminah, made for me!

And lastly, what's Incandescence about? There's no blurb on Goodreads! D:

It is about a special couple in The Bringer's Quest. (So spoilers there) BUT I will have it available once the tour information comes up which should be very soon.

-------------

So I think that's it. I'm so sorry I've been away. Between my edits and the #NACrushTourney on NA Alley blog I've been swamped. I am over on NA Alley today talking about self-publishing in the digital age, though, so feel free to stop by. 

Also, the NA Crush Tourney is still in full swing. And we have a few more rounds before it's over. Click on the banner to catch up and join in on the voting. 

Laters! I'll try to blog a few more times this month. Heart you all!

Author: Faith Sullivan
Expected release date: June 4, 2013
Genre: Contemporary Romance

Book Description:

Adam is through with love.

He unravels blaming himself for what happened with Katie.

His final moments with her echo through his nightmares.

She owns him body and soul.

To dull the pain, Adam invites a string of women into his bed. Fueled by alcohol and desperation, his meaningless hook-ups provide little comfort. When he closes his eyes, it's Katie he sees.

The only one who helps to ease his guilt somewhat is Jada. But as his new ambulance partner, Adam considers her off limits. He doesn't want to get seriously involved with anyone, much less her. Yet he can't stop fantasizing about the feel of her caramel skin against his.

Despite his intentions, Adam's bond with Jada deepens as they respond to a series of emotional calls. Their mutual attraction becomes undeniable. But how can he give his heart to Jada when it still belongs to Katie?

The first book of the HEARTBEAT series is only 99 cents on Amazon!

Cover Reveal: Breaking the Reins by Juliana Haygert

Hey all! I have a special cover reveal for you today from fellow NA Alley member Juliana Haygert! Enjoy :D

Breaking the Reins
By: Juliana Haygert
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance
Release Date: August 2013

Horses, mansions, tea parties, and lies are twenty-year-old Hannah Taylor’s life. To others, her family and her relationship with Eric is perfect. But she knows the truth. She lives it.

After a fire takes her grandma’s life and kills her horse, Hannah’s immaculate life spirals out of control. Her father disapproves of her decision to run her grandma’s ranch instead of focusing solely on learning the family business; Animal Control brings her Argus, a mistreated horse that she can’t turn away even though she’s not ready for another horse; and her boyfriend, Eric Bennett, a world famous polo player, becomes possessive and authoritarian. Despite her best efforts to disguise it, Hannah grows wary of him.

Then, Leonardo Fernandes struts onto the polo scene. A cocky rookie with a messy life of his own, he’s drawn to Hannah and isn’t afraid of showing it, even when Eric makes it clear she is his and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Hannah suffers for Eric’s jealousy. The abuse only gets worse when Leo steals the title of best polo player in the world from Eric.

But the title isn’t enough for Leo. He wants Hannah too, and she can’t deny her attraction to him either. Somehow, she must find a way to break free from abusive Eric before he breaks every bone in her body.

Destiny's Gift
By: Juliana Haygert
Genre: NA paranormal romance

Release date: April 1st, 2013
Buy Now: Amazon | BN | Smashwords | Kobo

Thirty years in the future, a sinister New York City exists in permanent darkness.A student at the secured NYU, nineteen-year-old Nadine has visions of Victor Gianni, an imaginary guy she has real feelings for. Afraid of being truly insane, she explains the visions away as simple daydreams, but she can no longer deny them when she bumps into Victor in real life. But this Victor doesn’t know her, and turns her away. After the encounter, Nadine’s visions change to those of eerie fates, gods she’s never heard of, demons with sharp claws they are not too timid to use … and instructions.To discover if she’s losing her mind, Nadine follows the vague directions—with the real, rude and reluctant Victor—leading to a man who knows it all: Nadine can restore an ancient creed by unveiling the clues on her visions, and bring sunlight and peace to the world again. But that’s only if the demons and the other evil forces behind the darkness don’t stop her first.

Excerpt: 

I heard a heavy sigh and turned toward it. It was Victor. He was leaving the elevator down the hall and coming toward his grandma’s room. He had seen me and didn’t seem happy about it.

He wore faded jeans, a T-shirt, and a thin jacket. Too casual. I shook my head. The fact that my dream Victor and this real Victor were exactly the same physically, while their clothing styles and posture were the opposite of each other still boggled my mind.

He came to a stop before me. “You again.” There was disdain in his tone. I cringed.

“How are you?” I managed to ask and immediately felt silly. I had planted myself here in this hallway for over an hour waiting for him, and when he finally arrived, I didn’t know what to say. Though I really did want to know how he was. The last time I had seen him in the flesh, he’d been jerking on the floor of the hospital’s garage, in pain. “What was that … ah … before …?” I trailed off, hoping he would understand what I was referring to.

He shrugged, his sea-green eyes still staring at me with suspicion. “I don’t know. By the way, how do you know my name?”

I twirled a lock of my hair around my index finger as I considered my answer. I wanted to answer him. I wanted to be honest, but he would never believe me.

As if my answer would pop out of the walls, I scanned the hallway.

At the end of the corridor, a nurse left a room and entered another.

“The nurse,” I almost shouted, hoping he wouldn’t notice my sudden lie. I avoided his inquisitive eyes. “I heard a nurse calling you earlier that day.”

His deadpan expression hid his thoughts and didn’t let me know if he was buying it or not.

“What did you do to me last night?” he asked, crossing his arms. God, I hated how his voice and his posture were so guarded and mistrustful. I wasn’t used to it.

“What do you mean?”

“When you touched me, the shock and the pain went away. How did you do that?”

“I don’t know.” This time I wasn’t lying. I really didn’t know. He frowned, clearly still suspicious. “Seriously, I have no idea.”

His shoulders stiffened. “What are you doing here? What do you want?”

My eyes widened as I retreated a few steps, trying to avoid his toxic tone.

Yes, he looked like my Victor—the same voice, the same hair, the same face, the same mouth that had offered me smiles that had rendered me breathless many, many times. I wanted to touch him, to embrace him, to tell him everything was going to be okay. Maybe if I touched him, he would remember me and he would want to touch me too.

I came closer to him, looking deeply into those wary green eyes, my fingers itching to stroke his skin, to feel it smoldering under my caress. But I didn’t. He was like my Victor, but he wasn’t my Victor. The Victor from my visions would never speak to me like this. He would never snap at me. No, no. My Victor loved my company, loved to hear me sing, loved to embrace me and inhale my scent.

“I’m sorry,” I whispered, my voice croaking under the heavy pressure inside my chest.

Then, I walked away.
