From bestselling author Kaitlyn Davis comes a paranormal romance perfect for fans of Twilight, The Vampire Diaries, and Buffy The Vampire Slayer.



"With one last look, one final search of the lines of his face for some sign, Kira turned and ran away from the sound of the man she loved laughing in the face of her death."

When Kira Dawson moves to South Carolina, she meets Luke, a blond goofball who quickly becomes her best friend, and Tristan, a mysterious bad boy who sends shivers down her spine. Kira knows they're keeping secrets, but when she discovers Tristan's lust for blood and her own dormant mystical powers, Kira is forced to fight for her life and make the heartbreaking decision between the familiar comfort of friendship and the fiery passion of love.

RAVE REVIEWS for the Midnight Fire Series! 
"The writing is effortlessly mind blowing. I could not put this entire series down. Once you're hooked, you won't either because it'll eat you up not knowing what happened! And then you'll pick a team like I did and you'll fall in love with all the characters and you'll want all the bad guys to die horribly! Just trust me when I say it really is your loss to miss out on this series! It's a blaze of glory!" - Happy Tales and Tails Blog

"Kaitlyn Davis writes some of the best action scenes I have come across in a young adult book; they are fast paced and so well delivered making this more than just a silly romance." - Reflections of a Bookworm

"The only downside to this series, is that it ended. But the ending was beautiful." - My Seryniti

"Kira isn't a human girl who is one dimensional and in love with a vampire. She's a well-thought out character who comes to life from the pages and steals into your heart. Read the books. Do it." - Urban Girl Reader

"I love and hate how fast of a read this was! I love it because I couldn't get enough of it and hate it because once I finished I wanted more!" - I Just Wanna Sit Here And Read

"I really enjoyed Ms Davis's writing, I was riveted throughout and was eager to see what would happen - there was drama, danger, action and romance that was wonderfully detailed and described." - Obsession With Books


"You'll make friends with Kira, choose sides with Tristan and Luke, and fall in love with the story at heart about a girl with so bright a future....even shades aren't gonna cut it." - Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers

About the Author
I've always been a writer. I grew up duct taping my novels together, started writing complete manuscripts in high school and studied creative writing at Johns Hopkins University. Upon graduating, I decided it was finally time to actually give my dream career a chance. So, of course, I started writing a young adult paranormal romance series -- and no, I'm not jumping on the bandwagon. I've been a true paranormal supporter for my entire life! I blame my obsession almost completely on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, my all-time favorite television show. And, before you ask: Yes, I own every season... even the post WB ones! I especially challenge anyone to watch the first three seasons and not fall in love with Angel, securing a lifelong love of vampires! Other culprits of my paranormal obsession are some of my favorite authors: JK Rowling, Raymond Feist, Meg Cabot, Richelle Mead, Lynne Ewing and Tamora Pierce.

Serie: The Adventures of Finn MacCullen #1
Published by: Spencer Hill Press
Publication date: March 12th 2013
Genres: Fantasy, Middle-Grade


Synopsis: 
Finnegan MacCullen: a thirteen-year-old apprentice with the famous Irish temperament.
Gideon Lir: a legendary Celtic warrior with a bit of a temper of his own.

Secretly, these blue-collar warriors battle the hobgoblins infesting their suburban neighborhood…when they are not battling each other.

Finn (not bleedin’ Finnegan) MacCullen is eager to begin his apprenticeship. He soon discovers the ups and downs of hunting monsters in a suburban neighborhood under the demanding tutelage of the Knight, Gideon Lir. Both master and apprentice are descendents of the Tuatha De Danaan, a magical race of warriors from Ireland. Scattered long ago to the four corners of the world, the De Danaan wage a two thousand year old clandestine battle with their ancient enemy, the Amandán, a breed of goblin-like creatures.

Now with the beasts concentrating their attacks on Finn, he and his master must race to locate the lost Spear of the Tuatha De Danaan, the only weapon that can destroy the Amandán, all the while hiding his true identity from his new friends, Rafe and Savannah, twins whose South African roots may hold a key to Finn’s survival.

Armed with a bronze dagger, some ancient Celtic magic, and a hair-trigger temper, Finn is about to show his enemies the true meaning of “fighting Irish.”

Book Blitz + Giveaway: Finding Joy by Jenni Moen

13 de diciembre de 2013


Remembering Joy
Release Date: 12/13/13

Book Summary from Goodreads:
Love is patient. 

It can happen when you least expect it, where you least expect it, with whom you least expect it.

Love is kind.

But love may not grow out of kindness. It can happen with the person who hates you most because love knows no bounds. 

And it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love doesn’t hold a grudge.

Love forgives.

Love forgets.



But when the healing of your heart 
breaks the hearts of the ones you love …
it may seem impossible to

Find joy.

Excerpt- Beautiful Wedding by Jamie McGuire







Sabes que Abby Abernathy inesperadamente se conviertió en la señora Maddox. Pero, ¿qué es lo que realmente sabes?
¿Por qué Abby hizo la pregunta?
¿Qué secretos fueron compartidos antes de la ceremonia?
¿Dónde pasaron su noche de bodas?
¿Quién más lo sabía…y no lo dijo?
Todo acerca de la boda fugaz de Abby y Travis era secreto…hasta ahora. Los fans de Beautiful Disaster (Maravilloso desastre) y Walking Disaster tendrán todas sus preguntas contestadas en este relato del día de la boda (¡y noche!)—y al igual que todas las buenas historias, la espera habrá valido la pena.

EXCERPT!
Me quede mirando la piedra brillante en mi dedo y suspire de nuevo, no era el suspiro que una joven chica recién comprometida haría mientras mira su gran diamante, estaba lleno de pensamientos, un pesado y reflexivo pensamiento que me hacía pensar intensamente, Reflexivos si pero no segundos pensamientos, no podíamos estar separados el uno del otro, lo que estábamos a punto de hacer era inevitable y Travis Maddox  me amaba en un modo que mucha gente soñaría, el suspiro estaba lleno de preocupación y esperanza por mi estúpido plan, quería que Travis estuviera bien tanto que fuera tangible.
—Deja eso, Pidge —dijo Travis— Me estas poniendo nervioso.
—Es solo… demasiado grande.
—Es perfecto —dijo, sentándose de nuevo, estábamos atrapados entre un empresario hablando suavemente en su celular y una pareja mayor, una empleada de la aerolínea estaba parado detrás del mostrador de la puerta hablando en lo que parecía ser una radio CB (1), me preguntaba porque no utilizaban un micrófono regular, anunció algunos nombres y luego coloco el dispositivo en algún lugar atrás de su escritorio.
—Debe ser un vuelo completo —dijo Travis, su brazo izquierdo estaba puesto en la parte de trasera de mi silla, su pulgar acariciando gentilmente mi hombro, estaba tratando de aparentar estar relajado pero su rodilla inquieta lo delato.
—El diamante es excesivo, siento que me robaran en cualquier momento —dije.
Travis Rio —Primero que todo, nadie te malditamente tocara, segundo ese anillo fue hecho para estar en tu dedo, lo supe cuando lo vi.
—Atención pasajeros del vuelo American 2477 con destino a las Vegas, estaos buscando tres voluntarios para tomar el siguiente vuelo, estamos ofreciendo bonos de viaje validos por un año desde el momento de su partida.
Travis me miro.
—No
—¿Tienes prisa? —pregunto con una sonrisa victoriosa en su rostro.
Me incline y lo bese —De hecho, si tengo. —Levante mi dedo y limpie una marca de hollín que el olvido en la ducha.
—Gracias, cariño —dijo, apretándome contra su costado, miro a los lados, su barbilla levantada, sus ojos brillando, estaba en el mejor ánimo que he visto desde la noche que me gano la apuesta, me hizo sonreír, sensible o no se sentía bien ser amado así y decidí en ese momento que dejaría de disculparme por eso, habían peores cosas que encontrar tu alma gemela demasiado pronto en la vida y ¿Qué era demasiado pronto, de todas formas?
—Tuve una discusión sobre ti con mi mamá una vez —dijo Travis mirando hacia la pared de la ventana a nuestra derecha, aún estaba oscuro, lo que sea que vio no estaba al otro lado.
—¿Sobre mí? ¿Eso no es como… imposible?
—La verdad no, fue el día que ella murió.
Adrenalina emergió de donde sea que la adrenalina venga y corrió a través de mi cuerpo, agrupándose en mis dedos de manos y pies, Travis nunca me había hablado sobre su madre, algunas veces quise preguntarle sobre ella, pero luego pensaba en la horrible sensación que se apodera de mi cuando alguien preguntaba por mi madre, así que nunca lo hice.
Continuo —Ella dijo, encuentra una chica por la que valga la pena pelear, una que no venga fácil.
Me sentí un poco avergonzada, preguntándome si eso significaba que era un dolor en el culo.
Seguramente lo era, pero ese no era el punto
—Ella dijo que no dejara de pelear y no lo hice, estaba en lo correcto —Tomo una profunda respiración, parecía dejar ese pensamiento quedarse en sus huesos.
La idea que Travis creyera que yo era la mujer de la que su madre estaba hablando, que ella me aprobaría me hizo sentir aceptada y nunca me había sentido así, Diane quien había muerto hace 17 años antes ahora me hacía sentir más amada que mi propia madre.
—Amo a tu madre —dije, inclinándome contra el pecho de Travis.
El me miro y luego de una corta pausa beso mi cabello, no podía ver su rostro pero podía escuchar en su voz lo afectado que estaba —Ella te habría amado también, no tengo ninguna duda.
La mujer hablo en su CB otra vez —Atención Pasajeros del vuelo América 2477 con destino a las vegas Estaremos abordando pronto, empezaremos con aquellos que necesitan asistencia para abordar y los que tienen niños pequeños, luego empezaremos a abordar a los de primera clase y clase ejecutiva.
—¿Qué hay con los excepcionalmente aburridos? —dijo Travis, parándose— necesito un maldito Red Bull, tal vez deberíamos haber mantenido nuestros tickets para mañana como habíamos planeado.
Arquee una ceja —¿Tienes un problema que tenga prisa de ser la Sra. Maddox?
Lo negó, ayudándome a pararme —Diablos no, aún sigo conmocionado, si quieres saber la verdad, solo no quiero que te estés apresurando por que sientes que cambiaras de opinión.
—Tal vez tenga miedo que tú cambies de opinión.
La ceja de Travis se arqueo y envolvió sus brazos alrededor de mi —En serio no puedes pensar eso, tienes que saber que no hay nada que quiera más.
Me levante sobre las puntas de mis pies y bese sus labios —Creo que estamos listos para abordar el avión hacia las Vegas así podremos casarnos, eso es lo que pienso.
