First let me remove the cobwebs and crickets from here, then we can chat. The reason for this post is that we have neglected our poor blog. Adam works and writes and I well, I'm kept busy with family illness, walking our two fur babies and other crazy stuff. I'm also trying to finish my own New Adult Novel before going back to finish Wicked Darlings, our 3rd book in The Chide Series. Also there is Facebook and Twitter and trying to keep up with everything happening in the Author World, so I really think I need an assistant or maybe get more organized. Yes, that's it organization is the key. So I have end our little chat but we haven't forgotten you, our poor little blog and I promise to make an effort to visit more often. Ugh, just walked through a cobweb that I missed!!! Yuck, better housekeeping needs to be on my list too!!!!! LOVE YOU BLOG!!!!!

Release Day Blitz: Call Me Crazy by author Quinn Loftis

Hello, Blogosphere!

Do we have a treat for you on the blog today :D Author Quinn Loftis has written yet another AMAZING sounding novel, and honestly we can't wait to read it! We not only have the cover, the synopsis, and the book trailer, but we also have an EXCERPT from the novel to share with you all! This book is out today, so make sure you grab yourself a copy of what should be another AWESOME hit from Quinn ;) 

Synopsis

“I’m looking out from inside the chaos. It must be a one-way mirror because no one seems to be able to see back inside to where I am. The looks on their faces, the judgment in their eyes, tells me everything I need to know. The most frustrating part about the whole messed up situation is that even though I’m the one that they stare at in shock, I am just as shocked as they are. I know no more than they do of why I lose control. What they don’t know is that I am more scared of myself than they could ever be.” ~ Tally Baker

After a devastating turn of events, seventeen year old Tally Baker is admitted to Mercy Psychiatric Facility where she is diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. She has come to a place where she honestly believes that her life is over. Her mind tells her that she will never smile or laugh again, that she will never be normal again. It is in this unlikely place that she meets two people, different in every way, yet both critical to helping her realize that she has so much more living to do.

Candy, a cantankerous sixty year old Mercy Psychiatric patient, is hell bent on driving everyone as crazy as she is. Candy shows Tally that, regardless of her diagnosis, the ability to push on and live her life to the fullest is her choice and hers alone. In the midst of Tally’s oftentimes humorous, sometimes heart-wrenching, escapades with Candy, a new patient is admitted to Mercy—a Native American woman named Lolotea. Along with this new patient comes a daily visitor, her son, Trey Swift. At first glance, it is obvious to Tally that he is incredibly handsome and unbelievably caring. But what she learns through her second glance, and many thereafter, is that there is much more to Trey than he ever lets on. It is during these daily visits that Trey and Tally build a friendship far deeper than either of them truly realize. With Trey, Tally feels for the first time since being admitted that someone is looking at her as a person and not as a disease. Trey begins to make it clear that he wants more than friendship, but she knows that she can never give him more. How can she, when she won’t even give him the truth?  Tally doesn’t tell Trey that she is a patient at Mercy, and she doesn’t ever plan to. Her plans go up in flames when she finds out that Trey is a new student at her school, the school where her brokenness was found out in the floor of the girl’s bathroom in a pool of her own blood.

Call Me Crazy Trailer

Excerpt 

   “Crap Candy,” I growl at my snickering companion as I rub my side and glare at her. “What was that for?”

  “A better question would be why were you hunkered down under the table drooling over Kemosabe?”

   I frown at her. “That’s tacky don’t you think?”

   “I’m sixty years old and crazy; I can do tacky if I want,” she snorts at me.

   I can’t really argue with her there. Like pregnant women, old, crazy ladies pretty much get a free pass on crassness and eccentricity.

   “So come on,” she pats the chair that I had so quickly vacated, “tell Candy all about it.”

   I roll my eyes. “He just took me off guard, that’s all,” I lie smoothly.

   Candy isn’t buying it. “He was hot, just admit it. Hot and he got you bothered.”

   I cringe. “Candy, you calling a guy young enough to be your grandson hot is just not right.”

   “Psht,” she flips her hand at me. “I’m old, not blind or dead. Besides, I didn’t say I wanted to jump his exotic bones.”

   I groan as I bang my head against the table. “Where do you learn these terms? I mean it’s not normal for someone your age to blurt out crap like that.”

   “Did you just use the term normal in a sentence describing me?” She raises her brow surprisingly at me.

   I laugh. “Good point.”

Cover Reveal: Silent Orchids by author Morgan Wylie

Hi Everyone!

Today on the blog, we've got something extra special for you all :D We're super EXCITED to be able to share the cover of author Morgan Wylie's novel, Silent Orchids, which is book one in The Age of Alandria series!!!!! The cover design was the collaborative genius of Phatpuppy Art and The Bookish Brunette.

ABOUT SILENT ORCHIDS:

A dying realm.

The ancient evil of the Droch-Shúil has been unleashed.

The Orchids have been silenced… but for how long?

Daegan, elite of the Ferrishyn warrior tribe of Faeries, is charged with a mission to find the Sol-lumieth, a mysterious new power that could change the fate of all in the realm of Alandria. But he is conflicted by his purpose, and he cannot trust the motives of those he serves. He has too many questions and they must be answered.

Kaeleigh, a girl abandoned as a small child just outside Missoula, Montana, is now 18. She is trying to discover who she is and where she belongs. In her heart, she feels she has family out there… somewhere. Desperate to unravel the mysteries of her past, she embarks on a journey that will forever change her along with her two best friends, Finn and Chel—who have secrets of their own.

ABOUT MORGAN WYLIE:

Morgan Wylie has been writing on and off throughout her growing up years, but started seriously working on her first novel in the Spring of 2009. 7 months pregnant with her first child, she didn't start off with a lot of focused writing time. But Morgan had an epiphany, if you will, and the story flashed before her so she began to write. And she’s still writing. Her debut Young Adult fantasy, SILENT ORCHIDS, will be out this summer.
