ML Guida’s News: A Touch of Curiosity
I am very privileged to be writing in another kindle world, but this time with S.E. Smith. S.E. Smith’s kindle world is Magic, New Mexico, and it’s combination of Star Trek, Magic, and Love all rolled up into one.
My novella is called A Touch of Curiosity, and a time spider flings my hero, Cé Jackman, through time, and he lands in Magic, New Mexico where he meets the beautiful but constant curious Pandora Athans.
Pandora Athans’ insatiable curiosity for artifacts changes her life forever when she discovers a bloodied pirate from the 17th century and a shiny silver box outside of town. She soon regrets her curiosity when she accidentally releases a mysterious cloud and residents of Magic, New Mexico are found dead — completely drained of blood.
Cé Jackman is flung into the future by a time spider during a fiery battle. Waking in a strange magical place, Cé finds himself accused of killing the local residents. There is only one person who believes his claims of innocence – the pretty little witch who found him.
Cé also finds himself in another unusual position – for the first time a lady needs his help. He also understands that if he is ever to return home, he will need Pandora’s assistance. Together, Cé and Pandora must work together to destroy the mysterious, killing fog she has released and convince his accusers that he is innocent before more lives are lost. Can an ancient Vampire pirate and a modern witch save the town of Magic, New Mexico or will Pandora’s touch of curiosity be the death of all of them?
S.E. Smith’s release date for Magic, New Mexico is February 2nd, and I am honored to be working with these talented writers—Sylvia McDaniel, Evelyn Lederman, Tianna Xander, Carol Van Natta, and Yvette Hines.
I’ll be posting my cover soon!
