Cover Reveal - Amy Bartol - Under Different Stars

SYNOPSIS:

All she wants is a home, but can she find one...UNDER DIFFERENT STARS

Kricket Hollowell is normally not one to wish upon stars; she believes they’re rarely in her favor. Well versed at dodging caseworkers from Chicago’s foster care system, the past few years on her own have made Kricket an expert at the art of survival and blending in. With her 18th birthday fast approaching, she dreams of the day when she can stop running and find what her heart needs most: a home.

Trey Allairis hates Earth and doubts that anyone from his world can thrive here. What he’s learning of Kricket and her existence away from her true home only confirms his theory. But, when he and Kricket lie together under the stars of Ethar, counting them all may be easier than letting her go.

Kyon Ensin’s secrets number the stars; he knows more about Kricket's gifts than anyone and plans to possess her because of them. He also knows she’s more valuable than any fire in the night sky. He’ll move the heavens and align them all in order to make her his own.

When everything in their world can be broken, will Kricket rely upon love to save her under different stars?

 TEASER:

I glance at Trey; he looks like an advertisement for Calvin Klein. Wearing only dark, athletic boxers, he’s something out of a catalog or a warrior movie. Blushing deeply, I want to crawl under the rock I’m on. “Wade into the water together. We should tie you two so that you’re face-to-face with both your heads above the water,” Jax says. Trey nods, extending his hand for me to take.

Avoiding looking at him, I stand up, walking to the water’s edge on my own. Dipping my toes in the water, I pull them back sharply. “It’s freezing!” I glower at them, hearing my voice echo off the walls again.

“It is,” Trey agrees, scooping me up in his arms and wading out quickly into the water before I can object further. When he is chest deep, he says softly in my ear, “Breathe.”

Clinging to him tightly with my arms around his neck, I inhale deeply before muttering, “Shh...you’re interrupting my revenge plotting.”

“If you survive this, I’ll insist that you learn to swim,” he says, sounding annoyed as Jax wades to us with a line, circling us.

“If I survive this, I’m killing you,” I reply dryly, feeling the rope tense, drawing me tighter against Trey’s warm body.

A small smile touches his lips at my comment. “How do you propose to do that?” He gazes into my eyes as Jax knots us together.

“I’ll let you spend some sleepless nights worrying about that,” I reply, my teeth beginning to chatter as the cold water is chilling me to the bone.

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.

Waves of Love - Guest Review from Heather

  Jenna knew Reece would break her heart, when he did Tyler stepped in to pick up the pieces. 

As she’s ready to take the next step with Tyler, Jenna finds herself face to face with Reece. Lies and secrets are discovered from the two boys she trusted the most. And now it’s more than just her heart on the line, it’s her life as well. 

Torn between two amazing guys Jenna’s certain of only one thing, this is the most important decision of her life. One almost destroyed her. The other brought her back to life. The time has come to choose. Can Jenna move forward with Tyler or will she be stuck in the past with Reece?

It's our pleasure to hand over the blogging reins to Heather. Every once in a while she'll help us out on tours by filling in with her awesome reviews. So here's what she thinks of Danielle Sibarium's Waves of Love!

I was thrilled with this book! I fell in love with this series and was hoping the ending would not disappoint me (like so many other trilogies have in the past.) No spoilers here, but I will say that, not only was the ending unpredictable, it was the best ending possible for the story. I honestly don't think it could have ended any better and I am completely happy with how everything played out. Book two left us with quite a cliff hanger and major questions regarding Tyler and Reece. I really liked Tyler, so I was anxious to see what he was all about.

Tyler is wonderful in this book! I loved his character even though I was still rooting for Reece. He definitely will surprise you and work his way into your heart. All of the pieces to the puzzle finally make sense when secrets are revealed and we can see "the big picture." There was non stop action and major surprises which kept me riveted until the very end. Let's just say that you can't make any assumptions about what's happening because nothing is as it seems. As soon as you think you know what's going on, something changes and you are no closer to discovering the truth than you were before. I loved not being able to predict what was coming and I couldn't put the book down until I finished it! There are much greater forces at work and things are far more complex than they initially appeared. Get ready for a wild ride with plot twists and turns until the very end!

Overall, this was a very addictive read. It has mystery, romance, drama, and at times, humor (courtesy of great dialogue from Tyler!;) It's wonderful when you love a series and it ends better than you could have imagined. Danielle never fails to deliver a fabulous, romantic and engaging read that ends with everything as it should be. I thought about the characters and the story long after I finished it. Now that the series is complete, I plan on re-reading it. If you have enjoyed the series so far, you will be thrilled with the last book. Danielle did a fabulous job and I highly recommend it. I hope you love it as much as I did!.=)

Christina's Review

I have loved this series by Danielle Sibarium.  I was a total Reece girl in the first book, then I started to like Mr, Bad boy Tyler in book 2.  Going into Waves of Love I was still Team Tyler.  I know others would be saying.... "What is wrong with you Christina?"  Well I don't know. Danielle Sibarium had this way of writing that made me love Tyler. Waves of Love is the end of this series and I had a roller coster of emotions while reading it.  

The book picks up with Jenna and Tyler spending more time together and building a new relationship.  Because Reece is dead, Right?  I Know that Jenna suspects but that only makes her angry that if he is alive and not telling her.  She tries to let him go but he is always there in her memory.  And when she is told by a psychic that she will have to  choose, it throws her mind into a loop.  Then Tyler's dad decides to run for office and wants to send Tyler and Jenna away for a while.

What happens when they go away? Why does Tyler's dad want them to.  And is Tyler true to Jenna and is Reece really alive?   The whole story comes to an EXCITING and shocking conclusion.  I was very happy with the ending.......and I am not on a team anymore. 

I will say that I LOVED this book more than the others.  A few times I was like WHAT???? Come on Danielle, but then I read more and went... YESS ok!  Go Grab it! Read the awesome for yourself!

And Because Helen is so awesome she let me borrow Jonathan For a few minutes for a awesome interview.  I happen to be a huge Jonathan fan. :)

Hi Jonathan, I'm Christina from the Crazy book Chicks. Thanks for answering a few of my questions! I'm one of your biggest fans by the way! I miss your tweets!

Hello, Christina. *kisses your hand* Thank you so much for interviewing me. I miss you as well, but Twitter is something that completely goes against my character, as everyone is fond of telling me. I am quite honored to visit you on your wonderful blog, however. 

Ok here we go? Ready?

I am.

How is Micah doing handling his demon side?

Ah. That is the big question, isn't it? I'm afraid that you will find Micah struggling with his demon side quite a bit in THE WICKED. I am not permitted to give any spoilers, but I will just say that Micah makes a transition to what my author is calling "Micah 2.0." Whatever that means. *winks*

After everything that's happened how is Hope?

Hope is adjusting to her new life remarkably well. As her mentor, I am quite proud of her progress. It will take a while for her full potential to be realized, but much of her new self will be revealed to you in book two. 

Also, I've always wondered how you felt about her?

Haha! I'm sure others have as well...  I would say that I am protective of her but also want her to be able to protect herself. But yes, I feel like I have a bond with Hope that transcends logic. I am permitted to say that you will find out why I love her so much in this book.  *folds hands*

Having to work with Micah, did it surprise you going against what you've always done?

Yes, Micah has surprised me in a variety of ways, mostly because he has held onto his human values and sense of morality despite being a demon. However, all of that will be tested in book two, and his fate will be held in the balance of his decisions.

What is the hardest thing you've ever had to do?

Leave my wife Adrienne's side during wartime, knowing that when I finally returned to her, she would likely not be alive.

Can you give us any hints from Mythology the Wicked?

Hmm... I will tell you this. I am reunited with someone from my distant past in this book. Some people may not like her, but it will be an interesting reunion, I promise you that.

I have a few personal questions for you.

Favorites......

Color Black

Food Coquilles St. Jacques, if prepared properly, of course. 

Music I have too many to choose one favorite -- I currently have close to three million songs on my MP3 player...

Person Will Shakespeare. Or did you mean someone who was currently alive? 

Thank you again for hosting me. We love and appreciate everything you do for all of us and our author. *bows*

Don'tcha Just LOVE HIM??? :)

Capstone Review

It's supposed to stink. That's what Cusps do.

The Ianua, Nalena and Garrett's own community, have welcomed them back by charging them as traitors and chucking them into the Hotel Celare's slammer. 

And outside the fortress walls, it's no better. 

The Cusp is at full-boil as the world finally surrenders to The Fury's lifestyle. Looting, riots, murders—every kind of crime has become the norm—and The Fury want to make it all permanent. They might even succeed, now that they've nabbed all thirteen of the Ianua's Cornerstones.

To preserve mankind, the only chance the Ianua have left is to beat The Fury to the Earth's Core and somehow trigger the Reset.

Like that's easy. 

There's no manual on how to activate a Reset. Nobody even knows if there’s an actual Core to the Earth. 

Shoot, it could be one big myth; an epic waste of effort. 

But the Addo thinks there is one last hope. 

Maybe.

So long as someone is willing to sacrifice everything to be mankind's long shot.

As soon as I received Capstone I was… sad. I didn’t want to read it, because I knew the moment I started it, I wouldn’t be able to put it down. That’s totally what happened and when I finished I was extremely sad. That’s the bad thing about a series for me, I get so attached to these characters, it’s like Garrett and Nalena are really my friends and saying goodbye just completely and totally sucks. I hate it, but Misty ended it beautifully.

Capstone picked up where Jamb left off and let me tell you it is beyond crazy! Garrett and Nalena aren’t sure who they can trust and the normal way of the Inuana isn’t the normal way anymore. Rules are being broken, trust is being tested, and secrets are being held. So what does that mean for Garrett, Nalena, and the rest of their family? I have to say that no matter what goes on, the supporting characters are phenomenal. I still adore Zane, he just cracks me up and I’m so glad he was present in this book. I was worried something was going to happen to him and the gang with the massive action that was going down at the end of Jamb.

Massive amounts of ups and downs in this book. I was so excited that everyone was alive, worried about who could be trusted, then thrilled and then terrified. I was ready to blow up Misty through Facebook, Twitter, and Email. You’ll know why when you get to that part in the book and you’re going to want to do the same, just know everything will work out. One of the biggest reasons why I love this series is because of the message between the lines, well at least the message I received. Nothing is always as it seems, sometimes we have to have FAITH that everything will work out and trust in those worthy of our trust to have our backs.

I cried a little in the last few chapters and practically bawled when I finished the book. I’m so not ready for Garrett and Nalena’s story to be over.  I need more of them, of all of them. Thank you Misty for writing an amazing series, one that I will definitely revisit often. 

<3 Dani

This was a bitter sweet read for me. I have been a fan of Misty Provencher's Cornerstone series from the beginning. Having the series come to an end was like, awww no more books. No more Garrett and Nalena. And just when you think, ya I know how it will end, like most books do. Nope Misty has a surprise that will make you smile or make you say "I'm okay with that" like I did.

If you haven't read the other books in this series, stop right here. Go read them now!!

Capstone picks up right where Jamb left off. Everyone is back but who is good and who is bad?? Nali knows she can't trust anyone but Garrett. They are all put in cells. She has no idea where the Addo is, if Milo is ok, if Garrett is ok and why can't she figure this out? Well the Veritas play a big park in this book. Nok tunnels in to see Nali in her cell.  She goes through and gets to Garrett. They soon learn who they can trust through winks. Everyone from their area is playing a part! When they are forced into a binding , which they want, there are some awesome hot scenes from Garrett. He's amazingly sweet with Nali. What will they Learn about each other when they are linked? And before this happens Addo gives Nali a mission. Will she have to give up Garrett for it? Nali grows so much in this book. I will say that every time I thought I knew what was happening I was proven wrong. It's a journey.... Both in reading and for the characters. Nali and Garrett learn to trust each other in new ways that I love!

I'm sad to see this come to an end but hope to see maybe more? Otherwise it was a great wrap up by Misty Provencher.

-Christina
