Rachel Morgan is Taking Over My Blog!

Please help me in welcoming my good friend Rachel Morgan to my blog today. She's doing a guest post to help promote her Creepy Hollow series!  Check out the other tour stops in the next few weeks as well!

Creepy Hollow: Meet The Characters



Guardian is a paranormal fantasy that revolves around two main characters: Violet, the faerie guardian-in-training whose routine assignment goes wrong when it turns out the human boy she's trying to protect can see through her faerie glamour, and Nate, the human boy who can see Violet and ends up following her into the fae realm. To get to know these two characters a little better, I got them to answer a few questions...









Before I go, here is an excerpt from the scene in which Nate and Vi first meet each other:



   I raise my eyes. The boy is looking at me.
   At me!
   My heart stutters. I mentally feel for my glamour, the magic that should be making me invisible right now. It’s still in place, I’m sure it is. So how can he possibly see me?
   This is bad. This is very bad.
   A few feet away from me, the boy pushes himself up onto his knees. “What just happened?”
   “Um ...” Crap, I am going to lose so many points for this.
   “And what the hell is that?”
   I follow his gaze to the arrow in my hand. It sparkles with its own light, as though made of hundreds of tiny red-hot stars. I can see how that would look weird to a human. I let go of the arrow. It vanishes, causing the boy’s eyes to grow even wider. 
   “Well, I should really be going.” I stand up, hoping my stylus is still in my boot.
   “Wait.” He gets to his feet. “Who are you? What are you doing here? What was that ... thing?”
   “That thing?” I casually reach behind me for the wall. “Oh, you know, just a product of your subconscious. And all that ice cream you ate earlier. Indigestion can make for some interesting dreams.” I cringe internally. Dreams? What idiot would buy that explanation?
   His eyebrows draw together. “I guess that could make sense. You are way more attractive than any real-life girl who’s managed to find her way into my bedroom.”
   This is not happening.


Thank you, Abby, for hosting me on your blog today!

Come Get Lost in CREEPY HOLLOW With Me This Week!

My good bloggy buddy Rachel Morgan is releasing some super awesome short stories (or as she likes to call them, "novelettes")(See how cool and awesome she is?  She totally calls them novelettes- that's SO European of her)!  Please check out her links- you won't be disappointed!

(Also come back here Thursday March 8th for a guest post from Rachel where you'll be able to get inside her characters' heads!)

Today the Creepy Hollow series kicks off with the release of the first story, GUARDIAN!!

GUARDIAN introduces readers to the magical world of Creepy Hollow, a realm where fae creatures both safe and definitely-not-so-safe dwell. Things are cool as long the fae stick to their own realm. It's when they find their way into the human world that things start going wrong...





1. Receive assignment.

2. Save a life.
3. Sleep.
4. Repeat.

Protecting humans from dangerous magical creatures is all in a day’s work for a faerie training to be a guardian. Seventeen-year-old Violet Fairdale knows this better than anyone—she’s about to become the best guardian the Guild has seen in years. That is, until one of her assignments—a human boy who shouldn’t even be able to see her—follows her into the fae realm. Now she’s broken Guild Law, a crime that could lead to her expulsion.

The last thing Vi wants to do is spend any more time with the boy who got her into this mess, but the Guild requires that she return Nate to his home and make him forget everything he’s discovered of the fae realm. Easy, right? But Nate and Vi are about to land themselves in even bigger trouble—and it’ll take all Vi’s training to get them out alive.
