Spellcaster Blog Tour!!



I am super excited that today I am a stop on the SPELLCASTER Blog Tour! A huge thanks to Cara Lynn Shultz and Kismet Book Touring for letting me be a part of it, and share with my followers the second installment in a great YA series!
First up, a bit of info about the book: From Goodreads

Finding your eternal soulmate - easy. 

Stopping a true-love-hungry evil - not so much…

After breaking a centuries-old romantic curse, Emma Connor is (almost) glad to get back to normal problems...

It's YA Scavenger Hunt Time!



I am so so SO excited to be a part of the YA Scavenger Hunt hosted by Colleen Houck ! I stumbled across the hunt last year and had a blast running through the long list of blogs, and am so happy that I get to be one of those blogs! And this time, it's bigger and better than ever!


Due to its popularity, the YA Scavenger Hunt has been split into three parts: RED, YELLOW and BLUE. Each part is a team consisting of 20 authors--which means that you could win 60 books! How cool is that?!


And I am on t...

Three Line Thursdays...Week 4!


Since I have officially passed the two month mark until the release of my very first novel (holy crap, it's less than 2 months!!), I thought that a really neat idea would be to give a few teases to you guys from said novel. Fun, huh?! Hold applause. (side note: it's now less than a month till release day--OMG!!)


So, I created Three-line Thursdays!


It's simple, really. Every Thursday between now and the release of BLOOD BORN, I'm going to tease you guys with three random lines from the book...

Waiting on Wednesday...SURRENDER!

The lovely Jill (a fellow Alabamian!) over at  Breaking the Spine  created the Waiting on Wednesday meme for us bloggers to showcase books we're waiting on.

This week's WoW pick is a sort of sequel/companion novel to a really cool dystopian that I thoroughly enjoyed (not to mention that it's written by a really cool author!) . It's full of tech stuff and action and young love...all the fixins! Please, if you haven't already, add to your TBR lists...

Tune in Tuesday: Book Playlists Edition #4!


Tune in Tuesday is a very cool feature created by the awesome blogger Ginger (or G, as I like to call her!) over at GReads!. It's rather pretty simple: Each Tuesday, post a favorite song/video for others to enjoy!


For the month of March, G has decided to tie the worlds of music and books together (like we all do constantly, right?!) by creating Tune in Tuesday: Book Playlists Edition (how cool is that?). So, for the next four weeks, choose a song from either a book's playlist (or maybe your...

Lucky 7: Peek at my current WIP!

Thanks to my friend Kate Avelynn , I was tagged in this cool new "game", Lucky 7! The rules? Very simple: 
1. Go to page 77 of your current MS.
2. Go to line 7.
3. Copy down the next 7 lines/sentences, and post 
    them as they're written. No cheating.
4. Tag 7 other victims--er, authors. ;P


Now, I suppose I could "cheat" a little and give you 7 lines from my upcoming debut BLOOD BORN (which comes out April 24th. Ebook out now! Yes, I plugged.). But I won't. I'm gonna play fair, and give you 7...
