Who: Cesya MaRae Cuono

What: Elemental Reality

When Callie Pierce was ten, her mother disappeared without a trace. On the eve of her disappearance twelve years later, the earth seemingly comes alive. The elements speak to Callie, and that's only the beginning. Everything she has ever known was a twisted fabrication to protect her. Now the truth is set free. Callie and her sister are more powerful than any Faerie ever born. Now they have to use their powers to save their mother and family from the evil hands of fate that threaten to tear them apart. Welcome to her elemental reality.

Where are the streamers & party hats?!

 

Take a look around the blog-o-sphere and you'll see nothing but massive giveaways & epic contests when it comes to a blog celebrating it's anniversary, especially it's 1 year.

Well, not me.

(Apparently I was waiting for the surprise party & cake that no one got the memo for, LOL, kidding.)

Don't get me wrong, it's not due to lack of excitement or pride that I have for my blog.

Life, for me, is nothing but chaotic at the moment. With work, kids, my die hard gym life, side jobs, reading, reviewing, events, blog hops, and attempting to maintain a borderline non-hermit social life, a celebration seems like too much for me to pull off right now.

It's almost like I need a support staff of goblins & faeries to pull off half the things that my imagination comes up with!

So, back to the point, I will be celebrating, do not fear!

 No one throws a party like me!

Most likely I'll be combining this with some MASSIVE Holiday Giveaway in December.

Until then, stay tuned for other random doses of awesomeness that tend to pop-up around here!

Review: Night Secrets - By B.K. Walker

Release Date: 6/2011

Purchase Info: Amazon, Barnes & Noble

Keara Crosby had the perfect life. Her family was not hurting for anything. When her parents are suddenly killed, Keara must learn to live without them. After mourning their death for two months, Keara starts to live again. She follows her favorite band, hangs with her best friend Jared, and falls for the new kid on the block.


When her favorite band is playing at Night Secrets, a new club downtown, she takes her first outing since her parents death and finds this mysterious boy watching her. Mesmerized by his lapus blue eyes, she can't help but feel drawn to him. Her body responds to him in ways she never thought possible, and she needs to figure out why. What is it about Channing that has her yearning for his touch?


Not only is Keara drawn to Channing, but the owner of Night Secrets seems to be drawn to her. Giving her special treatment, she can't help but wonder what he's hiding, and the sense she's seen him before. When she's attacked in the parking lot, her world turns inside out, literally. Keara will soon learn that secrets of the night, just may be the death of her.

Fantastic way to start a book! I mean having Keara's parents die is horrible, but in doing that it gives this book a great platform to take off from.
