No one is like Daemon Black.

When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around. Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on.

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not sure what that will mean in the end.

Cover Reveal Incendiary By Amy Bartol





Blurb:

Cold, fine drops of rain fall softly on my cheeks as I emerge from the darkness of the ship’s interior to the gray, overcast sky of the main deck. Pulling my dark pea coat tighter to my body, the wind lifts red tendrils of my hair. I walk slowly to the railing overlooking the water.
I catch my first sight of the Irish coastline; its craggy landscape makes me shiver in dread. I find it difficult to imagine now how the Gancanagh had made this their home for so long without anyone realizing it. The cold, moss-covered edifices practically scream their presence. As I study the shadows between the falling-down stone, I imagine creeping shapes of undead Faeries grasping the rock, waiting for our ship to draw nearer to their position.
Tipping my face up, I let the rain wash over me. It bathes away the frigid sweat of fear that has broken on my brow. “You don’t know how fiercely beautiful you are, do you?” A quiet voice behind me asks, causing me to stiffen and fix my eyes on the rocks along the shoreline.


Author Bio

I live in Michigan with my husband and our two sons. My family is very supportive of my writing. When I’m writing, they often bring me the take-out menu so that I can call and order them dinner. They listen patiently when I talk about my characters like they’re real. They rarely roll their eyes when I tell them I’ll only be a second while I finish writing a chapter…and then they take off their coats. They ask me how the story is going when I surface after living for hours in a world of my own making. They have learned to accept my “writing uniform” consisting of a slightly unflattering pink fleece jacket, t-shirt, and black yoga pants. And they smile at my nerdy bookishness whenever I try to explain urban fantasy to them. In short, they get me, so they are perfect and I am blessed.

Blog tour Shallow by Georgia Cates


Payton Archer's best friend, Claire, strives to be perfect in every way. Payton doesn't and this is her story.

Nick Hawke likes his car fast and his girls even faster. He blows through females quicker than his muscle car races down the "The Strip" in Collinsville and he wouldn’t have it any other way. Determined to avoid the devastation he has watched his father endure in the aftermath of his mother leaving, he believes there is no room in his life or his heart for a relationship lasting more than one night. He seeks happiness in things that won’t let him down...fast cars, adrenaline and one night stands. To his absolute dismay, all of that changes when he unexpectedly runs into an old friend and is introduced to Payton Archer, the first girl he ever wanted for more than one night. There’s only one catch...she is completely immune to him and his smooth talking ways.

Payton Archer is looking for what Claire has with Jessie, but she has given up on finding it...at least until she leaves for college in the Fall because she is certain that is where she will find the perfect guy to fit into her perfect world. She plans on Summer being nothing but three uneventful months of fun, but it turns out to be anything but ordinary when Payton is introduced to Nick Hawke, one of Jessie’s old Collinsville friends. She is shocked by her immediate and intense attraction for “Hawke” because nothing about him is what Payton is looking for. Sure, he’s hot and sexy but he comes from Collinsville and that is definitely not on her list of prerequisites. Everything about him makes Payton’s heart speed because he is exciting and dangerous, but his fast car and the dangerous chances he takes aren't what scares Payton the most...it’s the way Nick Hawke makes her feel every time he looks at her. Can Payton find that moment of total fearlessness and make the decision to leave the safe, shallow end of love to risk going under completely?
MY review:
Nick is a bad boy from Collinsville.He likes to sleep with a different girl every night,he loves fast cars and adrenaline and he doesn't believe in love.But he meets a Payton a beautiful girl and she have a smart mouth and he loves her for it.She made him to smile to cry and to love.He loves to spend time with her and to tease her.He fall in love with Payton and he will do anything for her.She is the one for him and he wanted to marry her and to have children with her.

Payton is a beautiful girl rich sincere and she want to love and to be loved.She knows on Nick a sexy guy and she thinks that Nick just want a night with her but he surprised her with his love and his patience.He proves her that he loves her and Payton is the only one for him
The relationship between them is very sweet.They have fun together and they learn to love each other and to fight for this love.They love to tease each other.They are perfect for each other.




Welcome to my blog ,Georgia!


Interview with Georgia Cates:
1)Please tell us something about you and about your books Going Under and Shallow

I’m a wife, a mother to 2 beautiful daughters, and 100% Southern girl. Ask anyone who knows me. I worked as labor and delivery nurse for 14 years before I began writing full time and the funny banter in my books is how I am most of the time. I find humor in things most people don’t. When you work with women screaming in pain all day, you have to laugh because the only other option is to join them and cry.

I’m a simple writer so Going Under and Shallow are simple stories about bad boys and the girls they love. They’re similar, yet very different because of the characters’ multi-dimensional personalities. I always include some kind of a twist to throw the reader off. I want the reader to think, “Man, I didn’t see that one coming.”


2) When did you realize you wanted to be a writer?

I was about 33 when I decided I had made a living in nursing long enough and wanted to pursue something different. I started playing with writing and it took me about 2 years before I was ready to publish my first book. (Sept. 2011)


3)Which is your favorite book and favorite author?
This question is loaded. It’s like asking which one of my kids I love more. I have a default answer. Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, but the truth is I love smut and trash.


4)What inspired the Going Under series?

I’m not sure anything inspired Going Under aside from a vivd imagination. The idea just came to me out of the clear blue and once I started writing it, it was more like the book wrote itself and my fingers obeyed.

My readers inspired “Shallow.” It’s the second in the series and was never meant to be because “Going Under” was intended to be a stand alone. When my readers finished it they wanted the story of the heroine’s best friend, Payton because she was such an interesting character.


5)Where do you get the motivation to keep writing and doing what you love?

I love it. That’s all.


6)What would be a perfect day for you?

It would be perfect if the story in my mind could find its way onto my computer on it’s own. All that typing taxes my gig.


7)What are you hoping to achieve with your books?

Honestly? I’m just having fun while I’m doing something I love. And it makes me a fair living. Maybe somewhere along the way, my words make someone smile.


8)Outside of writing what you do for fun?

I’m a huge music head so I love concerts. I stalk the band members at their buses after the shows. It’s great. Makes me feel like a real groupie.


9)What's next for you?
I’m keeping my next project under my hat until it’s almost finished. Why? I have this terrible habit I’m trying to avoid. I always publish the cover art, blurb and release date and then I want to make changes while I’m writing it. I get myself backed into a corner and I’m not doing it again. The only info I’m releasing about it is that it’s Adult Contemporary and I hope to have it out around Christmas. I did make a post about my main character today. His name is Lachlan and he’s Australian. That’s all I’ve got for you.

10) Please leave a message for your readers.

Expect to see changes in my writing style. In the past, I’ve been afraid to take chances. Now, I’m not. I’m going for it.

Interview with Marisette Burgess


Welcome to my blog Marisette!
1) Please tell us something about you and about your books?
Teacher, mother, and wife, not in that order. I’m an extreme Florida girl whose never seen snow. I believe white should be worn at funerals, not black. Studied at the University of Central Florida for a BA in English. I am co-chair of the Florida Writing Association’s youth program. If I can avoid close-toed shoes, I do. Born from Cuban immigrant parents I spoke Spanish before I spoke English. If you ever see me staring blankly into nothing, then my head is in a story.
Men of the Cave is a YA Paranormal Romantic Adventure with a twist on Greek Myths and Christian Legends.
Kasey Reese, 18, flees to Spain on a scholarship to restore the comfort she finds in anonymity. Destiny, however, has other plans for her – a life threatening, life-altering journey into the supernatural when she meets the men of the cave.
If you are looking for something different and unique then you just might like this. A “Twilight-ish” love story with a little bit of adventure.

2) When did you realize you wanted to be a writer?
Writing was always something I enjoyed to do for fun, but I didn't pursue it professionally until a few years back.

3)Which is your favorite book and favorite author?
I like Shakespeare and Poe. I also love the works of Joss Whedon and Neil Gaiman. Each author brings a unique trait into their stories that I love. I enjoy reading Shakespeare’s romantic works. With Poe it’s his dark creepy stuff I love. Joss Whedon's banter and comedy, and Neil Gaiman's magic for the supernatural.

4)What inspired the Symbol of Hope series?
This story is something that I am quite passionate about, because it encompasses different aspects of life, faith, and the supernatural. When I decided that I wanted to write a young adult novel with a female protagonist I knew exactly whom I wanted my heroine to be like. Kasey’s loosely based off my favorite storybook character a young girl named Juniper, from the Juniper Game by Sherryl Jordan.
Once I established Kasey in my head, I then needed a story, an adventure for her. I also needed her male counterpart. This proved to be difficult. I had no clue what I was going to write about, all I had was this great protagonist. One frustrating day I decided to Google unknown rare legends and like a diamond in the ruff I found my precious answer. A title flashed across my screen, Seven Sleepers.
I read an article about these seven men who went to sleep in a cave for 200 years to escape persecution from an Emperor. I started to research about these seven men and discovered as much information as possible. I fell in love with the legend and the idea of these self-sacrificing men who were willing to give their lives.
Most authors take from their personal lives to create stories. As a lover of Greek Mythology, I wanted to incorporate this somehow. I thought, wouldn’t it be neat to write a Twilight/ Percy Jackson-esk type of adventure. That is just what I aimed to do.
The ideas started to flow quicker than I could get them down. I created an outline and never followed it. Once the writing got underway, the story took on a life of its own. I knew loosely what I wanted the end result to be, but not everything that happened in the story was how I originally envisioned the plot would go. As soon as I finished Men of the Cave, I knew without a doubt how the rest of the storyline would unravel in the series and where I wanted my characters to end up.


5) Outside of writing what you do for fun?
I love the beach especially sitting by the shore reading my kindle. I also enjoy boating. Pretty much anything around water I love. I also love to go see plays even though I don’t get to them too often. Musicals are my favorite.

6)Where do you get the motivation to keep writing and doing what you love?
The characters are my motivation. I know they aren’t real but I feel like I owe it to them to tell their story and complete their journey. They have an adventure to complete and share with the world. I feel like I need to get them there, all the way to the end.

7)Which is your ideal day as an author?
The days when I write that last chapter and the story is complete.

8)Is there anything about you that would surprise your readers?
I am not what I perceive to be. People are always shock when they first meet me then get to really know me. I’m not as stiff as some might think. I’m open to a lot more than people give me credit for.

9) What's next for you?
I have a couple of things started. I think I want to write an adult romance story. A mid-evil fairy tale for adults.

10) Please leave a message for your readers.
I cannot thank you enough for reading my series. I love to hear from those who have read Men of the Cave and Jar of Pandora. The last book Symbol of Hope will be released sometime in 2013. Thank you Adriana for the blog post and the cool site!
Happy Reading.
