~Cover Reveal~ In My Dreams


Title: In My Dreams
Author: Cameo Renae
Genre: YA Contemporary Romance
Cover Design: Steph’s Cover Designs
Hosted by: Lady Amber's Tours

Blurb:

The dreams were happening again.

It was something seventeen-year-old Elizabeth Hayes thought she’d outgrown. She didn’t want them anymore; detailed premonitions of how people would die.

One night, Lizzy’s worst nightmare occurs. She dreams of her boyfriend, Michael Young, and soon discovers his car was found in a river, along with his lifeless body.

Confusion settles deep within when Michael appears alive in her dreams. He warns her, attempting to keep her safe from the very person who murdered him.

Awake, Lizzy must pull on her inner strength, not only to save herself, but also her friends whose lives are in danger.

In My Dreams is a story of trust, friendship, courage, and true love that lives beyond the grave.


My family is what keeps my heart beating, and my world a happy place to be.

I love reading great books that whisk me away from reality, even if for a little while. :) Writing is my passion. I love creating new worlds and new characters, and taking wondrous adventures with them.

In My Dreams & Hidden Wings were both recently published through Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing. Descent (A Hidden Wings novella) will be released May 15, 2013, and Broken Wings (Book 2 in the Hidden Wings Series) will be released June 1, 2013.

One day I will find my magic wardrobe, and ride away on my magical unicorn... ♥ Until then... I'll keep writing! ;)

Ghost in the Machine by SJ Davis - Blog Tour

Portrait of a young woman
hjg
 
Josephine, Bodhi, and Caroline, live in a scientifically advanced Victorian London as the Industrial Revolution is in full swing. Infrared goggles, dirigibles, and analog computers exist alongside bustles, parasols, and high tea. On the grounds of an Old Saxon church, three strange net-runners arrive from a future where everyone is assigned a barcode from the moment of birth. What you buy, what you read, your health care history, your bank accounts, your measured intelligence, are all captured by this barcode and sent to the feed of OmniCorp. Human data mining forms the basis of a massive Industrial Complex, a thinly veiled profit center, based on the control of human behavior. To interrupt the inception of OmniCorp, the net-runners, a subversive underground group, enlist the aid of the steampunk Victorians to thwart a meeting between two men, who hundreds of years earlier, laid the foundation for OmniCorp. Extraordinary figures race toward a rendezvous with history, weave in and out of time, fight evil steampunk automatons, hide in Victorian brothels, fight Indian mutinies, and take refuge in dystopian cyberpunk pawnshops, to insure a future where personal privacy is protected over corporate power.

~Release Day Blitz~ Gideon's Promise by Morgana Phoenix




Title: Gideon’s Promise
Author: Morgana Phoenix 
Genre: NA Paranormal
Expected Release Date: Feb. 23, 2015

Hosted by: Lady Amber's Tours

Blurb:His love will become her curse.

For centuries, Gideon has kept his secret, knowing that it could mean the life of the woman whose very heartbeat was his reason for living. But when Veil Creatures are slaughtered in their homes by those sworn to protect them, it may be up to him to save those he loves from a fate worse than death. What he doesn’t expect is the betrayal and a choice that could leave his family devastated.

Valkyrie Devereaux believes only in the power of justice, loyalty and obeying the laws of her people. Love was something to be feared and she had been taught long ago that anything that could make you weak, needed to be eliminated. But when she is assigned to join the Casters of the north in hunting down the creatures killing the innocent, even she can’t help the twang of longing for something that goes against everything she was raised to believe was wrong.

Like fire and gasoline, passions collide. Heat erupts as they fight against their desires and their very nature. But a fire like theirs can never be smothered. It can never be stopped. It can only burn to unimaginable heights, but what happens when it careens out of control and destroys everything around them? And who is waiting for that exact moment to destroy the brothers?

She will become his death.




Airicka Phoenix lives in a world where unicorns, fairies and mermaids run amok through her home on a daily basis. When she’s not chasing after pixies and rounding up imps, also known as her four children, she can be found conjuring up evil villains, bad-ass heroines and swoon-worthy heroes to play with.

Airicka is singlehandedly responsible for her greatly anticipated collections, 
The Touch SagaThe Lost Girl DuologyThe Regeneration SeriesGames of Fire & Betraying Innocence. She also writes mature paranormal & contemporary romance under the dark guise of Morgana Phoenix. To date, she is responsible for The Sons of Judgment SagaIn The Dark SeriesForever His Baby & Bye-Bye Baby.

YA Lovers' Blog Hop!



Happy Valentine's Day Hoppers!!!
Hey all you awesome peeps!!! This is Cameo Renae. Welcome to my blog! I hope you're having fun and entering the Rafflecopter's for the amazing prizes!
Today on the blog, I have the greatest honor to present:
Bestselling Young Adult Author
Anne Eliot

Welcome Anne!
Hello-hello! I’m so excited to be part of this Valentine’s Day blog hop. Every author on the hop is featuring something new--like pages never been read or scenes that were cut. I’m really proud to show off my very own something NEW! Just this month, my first audio books came out for my latest books: How I Fall and How I Fly (A YA, two-book, crush romance).

It's about a high school girl who has cerebral palsy that constantly causes her to fall;  but her CP does not stand in the way of the huge dreams she has to be a photographer. She falls in love with a football quarterback who’s been assigned to her photography project. He’s holding back that he’s had a huge crush on her since middle school, because his life is really messed up and he’s terrified he might hurt her.

I hope you will enjoy listening to this. It’s a clip from the part of the story where Ellen Foster (heroine) is stuck at the bus stop, unable to lift her bad leg very well. Cam Campbell, the popular hero notices—because he notices everything about Ellen. They’ve only forged a cautious friendship the day before. But he’s offered to help her get up the steps to the school bus, when her only other choice was to possibly fall while all the other kids look on. Only…he’s propelled her to the front of the line when she’s always in the back! She’s not sure if she should trust him or the friendship…and worse...everyone is watching her more than ever now! … Awww… <3.



How I Fall, Audible.com read by Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross

(In case the audio doesn't work, click on the link directly below and click 
"Play Audio Sample." You don't want to miss it!!!)

Both books in this series (it’s continuous story) were read back to back by two amazing audio book readers, Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross. They act out the voices for the entire story. Kai reads the heroine as well as all of the girls in the story and Wen reads Cam and all the guys. They switch points of view so seamlessly and bring the story to life. 
I’m humbled to have worked with them as well as to have had the opportunity to have the clip here on Cameo Renae’s blog. 
Thanks Cameo, for having me here with to your oh-so-beautiful, creative and exciting stories. Cameo’s post is on G.P. Ching’s blog, http://www.gpching.com, while Amy A. Bartol’s has an amazing post that’s on my website right now at www.AnneEliot.com.  I hope you will hop on over and check those out as well as all the others. Happy Valentine’s Day!

Annie Eliot @yaromance






WHAT IF YOU HAD AN IMPOSSIBLE CRUSH? 
Impossible because she’s Ellen Foster. The beautiful, smart, and possibly fragile photography-girl. You’re Cam Campbell. The guy who plays football 24/7 with no life. But what if during junior year, you decide to finally try for her phone number—until this glitter-crazed new girl ruins your plan. Worse, the girl is Irish, awkward, and insists you and Ellen should become best friends—with her! Only, you don’t want to be friends with a human tornado, and you think Ellen might need to stay a crush. This is because after one interaction you’ve discovered Ellen Foster really is fragile. Your problems and secrets are too big for anyone to understand. 

WHAT IF YOU COULDN’T RESIST? 

But what if the three of you wind up assigned to a group photography project, where rumors are already circling about the new girl being ridiculous? You know she’s nice but very alone, so you convince your crush to help protect the new girl. Suddenly, working on the project makes hanging out, texting, talking—and even high school—seem fun and completely normal when it’s anything but normal. 

WHAT IF YOU KISS? 

What if you kiss Ellen Foster and it’s perfect enough to make you believe in things you shouldn’t. You tell her secrets and share your dreams. You make the kinds of promises and create plans to be together that might be impossible to keep when you’re only sixteen and your parents control your entire future, but... WHAT IF YOU HURT HER?

Blurb:

I knew the moment I saw Beckett Tate that he was dangerous but I couldn’t resist him. Our attraction was immediate and our chemistry mutual right from the first moment our eyes met.

Until that day, I’d been in mourning after my fiancé Dan died under mysterious circumstances in Iraq, leaving me widowed before I even walked down the aisle. After a year spent rebuilding my life, I was ready to start over. If fate could take away my future and everything I planned for so carefully, I was going to get as much out of life as possible.

I wanted to live again without fear so when Beckett walked into my life, I was ready for him. Despite our intense connection, our passionate affair ended all too soon. One day, he was gone, warning me to stay away because he was “bad news.”

Now, I’m on a mission to discover why he warned me off, even if it breaks my heart…
