EEP!!

SO.
My lovely ebook publisher of Night Sky agreed to switchy the cover and do a little 0.99 sale of Night Sky. Which you can find HERE

I'm so thrilled!!!

So..... HERE'S the shiny new cover :-D
This book takes place in Vegas, and there's SO much between my two main characters, which I feel like I can SEE in the picture, and just...sigh...


After losing Sarah, the friend he’s loved, to some other guy, Jameson meets Sky. Her Native American roots, fluid movements, and need for brutal honesty become addictive fast. This is good. Jameson needs distraction – his dad leaves for another woman, his mom’s walking around like a zombie, and Sarah’s new boyfriend can’t keep his hands off of her.

As he spends time with Sky and learns about her village, her totems, and her friends with drums - she's way more than distraction. Jameson's falling for her fast.

But Sky’s need for honesty somehow doesn’t extend to her life story – and Jameson just may need more than his new girl to keep him distracted from the disaster of his senior year.


ON GOODREADS HERE


Here are a few of my fav lines, and why I love this book so much ;-)


As much as I want to see her again today, and kiss her again today, I also don’t want to push things too far, too fast.
Well, that’s stupid. I totally want to push things too far too fast, but I really like her and don’t want to chase her away either.


Also, she’s seems to be forever in control and tonight, she’s relinquished it to me. I don’t want to let her down.


She beams. It’s a Sarah smile. The one no one should be able to resist because it’s full of goodness and happiness. She half leans out the door as it closes and when she turns to face us, the happiness is still all over her face. It dances around in her eyes and weaves its way through her body.

“On Monday, you know, when Eric and I…”
Eric and I. Eric and I. “We” that’s what’s next, right? Because Eric and Sarah, Sarah and Eric. An entity. Am I ready to let go of the idea that Sarah and Jameson could be that same kind of entity? I’m not sure.

Now that they’re both in view, the problem is clear:
Girl I’ve loved, girl I’m falling for. Let’s meet in my driveway and see if we can give Jameson his first heart attack.

They’re opposites. Sky is all tall, dark and angles. Sarah is all smooth, short and soft curves. And now I know I’m a prick because I’ve just checked them both out in less than ten seconds.

What’s ironic here is that Sky knows who Sarah is and I’ve known her for days. Sarah doesn’t know who Sky is and I’ve known her for years. How did that happen? The s’s get tangled around in my head and on my tongue. I’m in deep shit.

I know I’m the only one home, which means I’m the only here to answer the door, which further means that I need to pull my sorry ass out of bed and get the door. It better either be girl-scout cookies or someone full of good deeds.
I open the door and my heart stops. It’s Sky. Home days early. Better than both my previous thoughts, unless she has girl-scout cookies. And good deeds could mean anything….
She’s in snug yoga pants that stop near her knees and a long-sleeve t-shirt. She looks soft. Like something I need to have in my arms.

Three hours, two x-rays and one flirtatious nurse later, I’m in a cast for a broken knuckle and metacarpal.

I pull her against me and it’s even better than I imagined. It feels like we’re on top of the world, our lips together, our bodies together and it’s just me and Sky. Just us. Because now, Sky and Jameson go together. And it’s awesome.

SO YES. You can find the book HERE.
And despite the way my lines make it sound - I swear this really isn't a love triangle.

And that's what I got today - 
Wanna share a line from something you're working on?
Or tell me the last you book you read??
Or maybe even better - the last book you bought but haven't read yet??

These lines are awesome. Congrats on the new cover, I love it. I bought Shades of Earth but haven't been able to dive in yet. I can't wait.

What a cool cover! Wish I had a Kindle... though I do love my Nook.

I've caught up on all the books I've bought but I have a stack of Christmas gifts that need attention. AND I haven't read The Fault in Our Stars which I believe I won off your blog... haha. That's the next one up :)

Oh Jameson, my love, I've missed you. I think I may need to take you out and cuddle you again soon.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! This cover.

I was curious about the change in book cover - I love it! Although, I really liked the original, too. :D

Trisha said...

I always love your lines that you share!

Got none to share at the moment as I am too mired on revisions to really see any of the lines straight. A bad sign? hehe

These lines are AH-mazing. Fav?

They’re opposites. Sky is all tall, dark and angles. Sarah is all smooth, short and soft curves. And now I know I’m a prick because I’ve just checked them both out in less than ten seconds.

HAHAHA

I will hop on over and get me a copy. I swear I'm becoming a Kindle book collector. Is this a sickness?

Hugs and chocolate,
