Soul Weaver ARC Anyone?
I can’t believe release day is finally here! When I wrote this book a couple of years ago, I loved it so much. The hero, Nathaniel, obsessed me. His talent fascinated me. The whole cast of characters is dear to me, and at times I wondered if I would ever get to share them with readers. I’m so excited that Forever Yours allowed me to finally realize my dream of releasing this book into the world. It’s a great feeling.
For everyone who wondered “whatever happened to Wicked Kin…” now I have an answer. 
I think since I’m in such a good mood today, I’ll have a little contest.
Tell me what your favorite flavor ice cream is, and you’ll be entered into a drawing for a print ARC of Soul Weaver.
Contest is open internationally and will end on August 14th.
[image error]Since the accident that nearly took her life, Chloe suffers from acute agoraphobia. Living alone above her family’s bookstore, she spends restless nights terrified by strange visions . . . until a mysterious stranger appears and offers her salvation. Chloe is drawn to the ethereal, gorgeous Nathaniel—but her haunted soul warns her there is more to him than meets the eye.
An archangel who roams Earth collecting souls of the newly departed, Nathanial is the sole witness to the accident that should have taken Chloe’s life. Seduced by the purity of her soul, he defies Providence by saving her life. But his attempt at kindness marks Chloe for damnation, and makes her an unwitting pawn in a game of unholy ambition. Now together they must fight the demons of Hell itself—for a love that defies the boundaries of Heaven and Earth.

RT Book Reviews Gives Soul Weaver 4 Stars!
In the September issue of RT, Soul Weaver got this great review:
Edwards mines the world of fallen angels for her new Wicked Kin series, beginning with Soul Weaver, a rich romance you’ll lose yourself in. Once you have a sense of the complicated world Edwards is building, this race-against-time romance between a bookseller, who suffers from agoraphobia after a life-threatening accident, and the man she has no idea is a fallen angel will have hearts melting. Edwards is off to an excellent start with this series.
You can check out the full review here, as well as a note from me here.

Email Outage
Email has never been a friend of mine, and not for lack of trying on my part. LOL
My hailey(at)haileyedwards(dot)net email address will be unavailable until Friday.
My new host is having difficulty transferring the addy, so until the matter is sorted out, please contact me via my website’s contact form. That’s still a direct line to me if you need me.
