As the subject line not-so-subtly implies, I'm happy to release the book trailer for Once Burned, book one in the new Night Prince series. For this trailer, I again hired the fabulous people from Book Candy Studios and I think they did a wonderful job. Why do I have book trailers made for my novels? Well, mostly because I get a kick out of them :). Also, they're another way to communicate a sto...

Halfway to the Grave
by Jeaniene Frost
goodreads summary-Flirting with the grave...
Half-vampire Catherine Crawfield is going after the undead with a vengeance, hoping that one of these deadbeats is her father--the one responsible for ruining her mother's life. Then she's captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unholy partnership.
In exchange for finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She's amazed she doesn't end up as his dinner--are there actually good vampires? Pretty soon Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn't have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her new found status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side . . . and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat.

Dead Beautiful
by Yvonne Woon
goodreads summary-On the morning of her sixteenth birthday, Renée Winters was still an ordinary girl. She spent her summers at the beach, had the perfect best friend, and had just started dating the cutest guy at school. No one she'd ever known had died. But all that changes when she finds her parents dead in the Redwood Forest, in what appears to be a strange double murder.
After the funeral Renée’s wealthy grandfather sends her to Gottfried Academy, a remote and mysterious boarding school in Maine, where she finds herself studying subjects like Philosophy, Latin, and the “Crude Sciences.”
It’s there that she meets Dante Berlin, a handsome and elusive boy to whom she feels inexplicably drawn. As they grow closer, unexplainable things begin to happen, but Renée can’t stop herself from falling in love. It’s only when she discovers a dark tragedy in Gottfried’s past that she begins to wonder if the Academy is everything it seems.
Little does she know, Dante is the one hiding a dangerous secret, one that has him fearing for her life.
Dead Beautiful is both a compelling romance and thought-provoking read, bringing shocking new meaning to life, death, love, and the nature of the soul.

Generation Dead
by Daniel Waters
goodreads summary-Phoebe Kendall is just your typical Goth girl with a crush. He’s strong and silent…and dead.
All over the country, a strange phenomenon is occurring. Some teenagers who die aren't staying dead. But when they come back to life, they are no longer the same. Feared and misunderstood, they are doing their best to blend into a society that doesn’t want them.
The administration at Oakvale High attempts to be more welcoming of the “differently biotic." But the students don’t want to take classes or eat in the cafeteria next to someone who isn’t breathing. And there are no laws that exist to protect the “living impaired” from the people who want them to disappear—for good.
When Phoebe falls for Tommy Williams, the leader of the dead kids, no one can believe it; not her best friend, Margi, and especially not her neighbor, Adam, the star of the football team. Adam has feelings for Phoebe that run much deeper than just friendship; he would do anything for her. But what if protecting Tommy is the one thing that would make her happy?

Jekel Loves Hyde
by Beth Fantaskey
goodreads summary-Jill Jekel has always obeyed her parents rules;especially the one about never opening the mysterious, old box in her father's office. But when her dad is murdered, and her college savings disappear, she's tempted to peek inside, as the contents might be the key to a lucrative chemistry scholarship.
To improve her odds, Jill enlists the help of gorgeous, brooding Tristen Hyde, who has his own dark secrets locked away. As the team of Jekel and Hyde, they recreate experiments based on the classic novel, hoping not only to win a prize, but to save Tristen's sanity. Maybe his life. But Jill's accidental taste of a formula unleashes her darkest nature and compels her to risk everything, even Tristen's love just for the thrill of being . . . bad.

Maze Runner
by James Dashner
goodreads summary-Imagine waking up one day in total darkness, unsure of where you are and unable to remember anything about yourself except your first name. You're in a bizarre place devoid of adults called the Glade. The Glade is an enclosed structure with a jail, a graveyard, a slaughterhouse, living quarters, and gardens. And no way out. Outside the Glade is the Maze, and every day some of the kids -- the Runners -- venture into the labyrinth, trying to map the ever-changing pattern of walls in an attempt to find an exit from this hellish place. So far, no one has figured it out. And not all of the Runners return from their daily exertions, victims of the maniacal Grievers, part animal, part mechanical killing machines.
Thomas is the newest arrival to the Glade in this Truman-meets-Lord of the Flies tale. A motley crew of half a dozen kids is all he has to guide him in this strange world. As soon as he arrives, unusual things begin to happen, and the others grow suspicious of him. Though the Maze seems somehow familiar to Thomas, he's unable to make sense of the place, despite his extraordinary abilities as a Runner. What is this place, and does Thomas hold the key to finding a way out?
In The Maze Runner, Dashner has crafted a creative and engaging novel that's both mysterious and thought provoking.

Luke and Jon
by Robert Williams
goodreads summary-Luke's mum is dead. He finds himself in a small, scruffy northern hill town, with a near silent father, who he fears might be trying to drink himself to death. Then he meets Jon.

Crossing Stones
by Helen Frost
goodreads summary-Maybe you won’t rock a cradle, Muriel.
Some women seem to prefer to rock the boat.
Eighteen-year-old Muriel Jorgensen lives on one side of Crabapple Creek. Her family’s closest friends, the Normans, live on the other. For as long as Muriel can remember, the families’ lives have been intertwined, connected by the crossing stones that span the water. But now that Frank Norman—who Muriel is just beginning to think might be more than a friend—has enlisted to fight in World War I and her brother, Ollie, has lied about his age to join him, the future is uncertain. As Muriel tends to things at home with the help of Frank’s sister, Emma, she becomes more and more fascinated by the women’s suffrage movement, but she is surrounded by people who advise her to keep her opinions to herself. How can she find a way to care for those she loves while still remaining true to who she is?
Written in beautifully structured verse, Crossing Stones captures nine months in the lives of two resilient families struggling to stay together and cross carefully, stone by stone, into a changing world.

Tunnels
by Roderick Gordon
Goodreads summary-14-year-old Will Burrows has little in common with his strange, dysfunctional family. In fact, the only bond he shares with his eccentric father is a passion for archaeological excavation. So when his dad mysteriously vanishes, Will is compelled to dig up the truth behind his disappearance. He unearths the unbelievable: a subterranean society that time forgot. "The Colony" has existed unchanged for a century, but it's no benign time capsule of a bygone era. Because the Colony is ruled by a merciless overclass, the Styx. Will must free his father--is he also about to ignite a revolution?

Thanks for adding me. I so love Cat and Bones. I'm not normally a fan of 1st person narrative but your books are the exception! YAY!

I was just wondering if you had deleted scenes from this side of the grave and one grave at a time? I just love reading these little extras while waiting for the next books to come out. I was also wondering if you know when book 7 is coming out or at least a rough idea?
Thank you so much for accepting me as a friend. I would also like to thank you for gifting the world with your incredible imagination and amazing voice for Cat, Bones, and everyone in their stories. I love to get lost in the tapestries of their "lives" and I can't wait to burn through the pages of "Once Burned" which is sure to be another fantastic and passionate tale. *Heh ~ sorry I couldn't resist the pun*
Ello Jeaniene! I have a question, will Ian ever get a book? His comment about Cat & Bones, then Spade & Denise was funny! I want to know what he has in store for himself!
Hi JeanieneThanks for accepting my request!
P.S. I love your books and can't wait to read Vlad's series, it looks awesome =)

Do you think you will ever write a book on what bones and cat went through while they were apart? I would like to know what went on!

Thank you so much for your response. I can't wait for the rest of the books to come out!

There's no date yet for Cat and Bones #7, sorry.
Re-What Cat whispered to Bones in TSOTG is what she later told Don she wanted to do when she was at his bedside (being vague so as to not spoil anyone who hasn't read that far yet).
Thanks, and take care!
Jeaniene
In At Graves End what is in the note that Cat wont read? I am dying to know what bones left for her. I can't put your books down!
In the book this side of the grave, Cat whispers something to Bones that she wants to do when everything is over. I was just wondering what it is that she says to him?
I was just wondering when book 7 of cat and bones is going to be out. I love your books and read the first 6 in three weeks. I couldn't put them down.
Jenny wrote: "Are there going to be any more books in the nighthuntress series? :)"Yes, Jenny. There will be a total of nine Cat and Bones books, and at least two Vlad books (the new Night Prince series). Thanks!
Jeaniene
I just read Eternal Kiss of Darkness....there are no words! Great book, everything I look for in one, can't wait to read some more of your work.
Thanks for adding me :) Just have to mention that Cat has quickly become one of my fav female leads! She's so vulnerable & fierce...how can you not love her!!!!

Thank you so much for coming to my town and doing the book signings. It means so much to see the authors that I love and getting to hear your thoughts! Love your books!
Hi Jeaniene! Many belated thanks for accepting the friendship request...I'm honored, truly! You are quite the inspiration. :-) I love old cemeteries, too...could walk thru them for hours and never feel bored. I have a huge winged skull tattooed across my chest that was pulled from a real headstone rubbing from a 1690's Rhode Island boneyard...I guess that proves that I'm truly a creepy oddball?
Warm Regards,
Danielle D. Smith
Hello Jeaniene! I saw the post on Twitter about the ARC contest giveaway! :) Yay, I can't wait to find out who wins, crosses fingers for me, lol. I'm glad your able to extend the books to nine! I also look forward to Vlad's adventure; can't wait to see what sort of character is able to throw him off! lol. I'm also thrilled to know Tavia G. is still doing the narrations! She is amazing! I follow her on Twitter and audiobookcommunity.com as well. Hope you have a wonderful day! Sincerely,
Brandy A.
Hi Jeaniene!Your book was published here(Brazil!)... I'm so happy for it! I read the english copy but I will certainly buy i! I love Bones and Cat!
All Best for you,
Nichole
thank you for your books, they are exceptionally good written and plotted, I was wondering if you have someone close to you who's english the phrasing is very good and entertaining. I cant wait to read the next one.
Happy birthday Jeanniene! Hope it's fabulous. At least you get to spend your special day with Bones;)
Thanks for the friend accept!!! I absolutely love your books! Cat and Bones are amazing and I find myself comparing other characters from other series to them (very few ever make it close) I've read each book multiple times and I cant wait for Vlads story and book 6!!!!!
You truly are an amazing Author!! I cannot get enough of The Night Huntress Series. I'll NEVER get tired or bored of reading about Cat & Bones' lives, adventures and love. They're amazing and have become my all time favorite paranormal couple. They fit so well together, it's such a joy to read. The banter between them is amazing. The Night Huntress World series is equally amazing. I ate Spade's book all up. And now, I hear that Vlad is next. AHHH!!! I cannot wait!! He's become one of my favorite characters. I'm SO hoping that you do a side story on Ian though. He cracks me up and I'd love to see someone truly have HIM wrapped around their finger. LOL
Thank you, so much, for creating and writing these characters and their stories!! I cannot wait for the ride to continue!
Great books, I'm working on book 5. I have blown through the first 4 in the last 2 weeks. Your fantastic! Can't wait for the next book!
Hello Jeaniene! Thank you so much for accepting my friend request! I am a huge fan and I have already read all your books. I love the relationship between Bones and Cat =)...You are an amazing author and please keep writting =)-Haylee

Jeaniene, thanks for accepting me :) I wanted to give you kudos for "This Side of The Grave" that I read last week, and I loved all of it! The humor, the characters' growth, the fights... the whole thing was excellent!
And one of the things I really like about your books is that you don't think it is necessary to have a love triangle in order to make things interesting.
Thanks for writing such a great series, I'm going to do a re-read before the next book will be released.
Jeaniene, thanks for accepting my friend request :) much appreciated.Just wanted to say, how much I'm in love with your Night Huntress books. They are my new addiction, as is Bones. Bones has some of the best lines, and you've really nailed the British humor. I'm from the UK so its great listening to Bones speak.
Anyway, only just been introduced to this series and I'm currently reading Destined for an Early Grave, and its bloody fantastic!
Thank you so much for bringing this series (and Bones) into my life.

Just finished listening to "This Side of the Grave" narrated by Tavia Gilbert :). Amazing work Jeaniene :) Keep it up!. My fav part was the comment about Bones and the word "sparkle"... I won't spoil lol :). Made me laugh :) Thanks Jeaniene :)
Dear Jeaniene:So I just met you about two hours ago (I'm the one that had the Jeaniene is AWESOME shirt on :).) We drove four hours from Virginia and it was so worth it! You are so incredibly nice and I'm so excited that I got to meet you! Because of you, I've made some new incredible friends and I want to thank you so much. I can send you some of the pictures, if you'd like! Anyway, you are awesome.
-Chelsea <3 :)
