It’s a love affair that has grown ever since. As an ardent fan of John Donne, Alice Walker, Kurt Vonnegut and Alexander Pope from an early age, Cerece began exploring her own creative writing through poetry. She earned her master’s degrees in social work and international relations at Boston College and Johns Hopkins School for Advance International Studies, respectively, and built a rewarding 15-year career in program development, management and fundraising in the community and international development arenas – all while appreciating the stories of human connection told in science fiction through works like Octavia Butler’s “Wild Seed,” Frank Herbert’s “Dune” and “The X-Files.” In 2011, Cerece experienced her own supernatural event - a vision of her first science fiction story. Shortly after, she began developing and writing what would become the “Order of the Seers” trilogy.

His short fiction has also appeared in literary reviews. While he's still writing about himself in third-person, David should probably also mention that he lives outside Richmond, VA, with his wife, two kids and a dog who's terrified of thunder (not the best situation since it thunders from spring until fall in Richmond).

The Massacre is supposed to bring peace to Eriana Kwai. Every year, the island sends its warriors to battle these hostile sea demons. Every year, the warriors fail to return. Desperate for survival, the island must decide on a new strategy. Now, the fate of Eriana Kwai lies in the hands of twenty battle-trained girls and their resistance to a mermaid’s allure. Eighteen-year-old Meela has already lost her brother to the Massacre, and she has lived with a secret that’s haunted her since childhood. For any hope of survival, she must overcome the demons of her past and become a ruthless mermaid killer. For the first time, Eriana Kwai’s Massacre warriors are female, and Meela must fight for her people’s freedom on the Pacific Ocean’s deadliest battleground. Goodreads Purchase:FREE during the blitz!--Amazon About the Author: Tiana Warner was born and raised in British Columbia, Canada. She enjoys riding her horse, Bailey, and collecting tea cups. Author links: Website Goodreads Author Interview: Give us the tweet-sized version of what Ice Massacre is about. A teenage girl is sent to battle the hostile mermaids that are driving her people into poverty. A story of love, secrets, and ass-kicking. What makes Ice Massacre unique? First, I haven’t seen a lot out there that portrays mermaids for what they really are: flesh-eating sea demons. But I think what also sets it apart is its almost entirely female cast. This island decides to send female warriors to kill the mermaids that plague them, because women don’t fall victim to a mermaid’s supernatural allure. We end up with an all-female war on a ship in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Meela, an aboriginal girl who’s never been away from the tiny island she calls home, also has a pretty unique journey of self-discovery. I don’t want to reveal too much. But I think a lot of aspects make this story unconventional. What’s your favourite thing about the book? I love Meela’s antagonists. Meela’s a tough chick and she has a lot coming at her from all directions. Writing those opposing forces was so much fun. What’s next for you as a writer? The sequel! This is the first in a trilogy, and I’m hard at work on book two: Ice Crypt. Read and Excerpt:
Sample - Prologue Somewhere on the Pacific Ocean The young man aimed his crossbow at the water, ready to fire a bolt of solid iron at the first glimpse of flesh beneath the surface. “Sir,” he said, “shouldn’t we have seen one by now?” The captain turned his back to the salty wind, jaw tight. “They know we’re here.” “So what are they doing?” He followed the captain’s gaze. Blackness merged with the empty grey horizon in every direction. A long silence passed, filled only by gentle swells lapping against the ship. The captain drew his own crossbow. “Forming a plan.” All twenty men aboard the ship readied their weapons, reacting in a chain until the last man at the stern took steady aim at the waves. A Themed Tour through Prism Book Tours. We're blitzing the GRAND FINALE for The Better Man by Amy Vastine! The Better Man, which is the beginning of the new Chicago Sisters Series, is set in the busy city of Chicago, but is full of family, friendship, and love. It's also from the clean romance Heartwarming line of books from Harlequin. Did you miss any of the tour? You still have time to go back and check out all the stops and enter the amazing giveaway! Launch - Intro and Excerpt The Better Man is the first book in the Chicago Sisters Series, which introduces us to the three Everhart sisters, Lucy, Kendall, and Emma. All three sisters live in the Lincoln Park area, and even though the story has a big city backdrop, the focus is still on family and community. These sisters always have one anotherâs backs, even though they couldnât be any different... Colorimetry - Guest Post In The Better Man, the heroine of the story is an interior designer. This profession was born out of my love of all things HGTV, of course. I think I can lose whole days to that channel. I love all the shows about surprise makeovers and house flippings, but my favorite is Property Brothers... The Written Adventure - Guest Post Kendall Montgomery is the middle sister and the heroine of The Better Man. Her sisters are always there for her, even if they drive her a little crazy sometimes.... Despite their different views on life, Lucy and Emma never fail to support their sister through the toughest times of her life... Katie's Clean Book Collection - Review Kendall is facing reality now. She's a very talented and gifted designer and artist and is now able to use those abilities to make a living. Based off of her life experiences and relationships, she's a little gun-shy, with good reason. I loved watching her evolve. Being a mother isn't easy and doing what's best for your kids isn't always easy, either, but, as Kendall learns, the hard things are often the most rewarding. Book Freebies, Contests, Sweepstakes, and Giveaways - Guest Post Today I thought I would introduce you to Max, the hero. In my mind, Max always looked like and had similar personality traits as the character Ryan Gosling played in the movie Crazy, Stupid, Love. Easy on the eyes, charisma and charm, and letâs not forget great fashion sense. Max is always well put together and did I mention he often has a five oâclock shadow? I love a guy with a little scruff!.. Christy's Cozy Corners - Review This story is so sweet! I love the characters, and can't wait to read more books about Kendall's sisters. Amy has definitely become one of my new favorite authors! The Wonderings of One Person - Guest Post The hero in The Better Man is new to Chicago. Max has recently moved there from Los Angeles. To help a guy out, I thought I would suggest a few romantic spots in the Windy City that he or anyone here for a visit might want to consider... SBM Book Obsession - Excerpt His father had left. His father had left them both. âAvoiding a date here and there isnât going to make him better.â My Love for Reading Keeps Growing - Excerpt âNana!â Simon burst into the foyer, his drawing clenched in his hand. âYou wonât believe it! Youâll never believe who we saw today!â Kendall gave her mother an apologetic grimace, but Nana was too startled by Simonâs verbosity to notice. âWho? Who did you see?â she asked, crouching down to his level. He handed her the picture heâd drawn. âMy dad! We saw my dad right down the street!â Kelly P's Blog - Guest Post In the story, a young widow and mother is hired to remodel a restaurant managed by a man who happens to look exactly like her dead husband. Itâs a messy romance but one that I hope wins your hearts... J.R.Richardson Fics - Review And the twist. Which I refuse to ruin for you. But let me just say, Amy. Well flipping done, my friend. Because you know I love stuff like this. And the way you wove this tale, and took me along for the ride, quite willingly, I might add . . . and revealed everything just the way it was supposed to be revealed, at the exact time it needed to be revealed . . . made me smile so big. I just love the way my heart was happy for (almost) everyone, in the end. Pretty Girls Read Books - Excerpt He mirrored her movement to keep her from escaping and put a hand on her arm when she tried once more to move around him. It was the first time heâd touched her since their disastrous introduction. Kendall couldnât stop the deÌjaÌ vu that it prompted. The last time she saw Trevor alive, sheâd been storming away and heâd tried to stop her. The memory jolted through her like an electrical shock. âIâm not going anywhere,â Max said firmly. âI will be here. Every day. Whether you want me here or not.â Getting Your Read On - Review The relationship between Max and Kendall grows slowly and as it does, we learn more back history about them both. The unfolding process was well written. Max and Kendall struggle separately and they struggle together. Of course, my favorite bits are when they support each other. Deal Sharing Aunt - Excerpt The three of them got busy painting and embellishing the costume. Their collective laughter created a lightness Kendall hadnât felt in a long time. Seeing Simon act like a normal six-year-old freed her from the yearâs worth of guilt and worry sheâd been carrying around. This wasnât like having Trevor around. It was better. My Devotional Thoughts - Review There are a couple of things about the book that truly stand out as dynamic stylistic characteristics. For one thing, the author switched back and forth between the manâs and womenâs perspective. Not all authors have the knack for doing that, but this author does. I also appreciate the fact that the author introduces a child who is grieving the death of his father in a unique way. I found that to be a realistic element that will connect with others who have been in that position. Southern Chelle - Review I love books like this that grip you and you donât want to put them down! (This was a book that did that.) The Better Man seemed to have a different storyline than any other book that I have ever read. It was extremely refreshing to read totally new content. Undercover Book Reviews - Review First time ever reading from this author and was completely impressed. Her work is well written and easy to follow. This particular storyline is heart grabbing. Bookworm Lisa - Review I am enjoying this story. Two separate people, each with a child with a need to be parented. The hard obstacle to overcome is that Max look like Kendall's deceased husband, It lends a unique situation to the story... Reader Girls - Excerpt âWinner!â Max jumped her last checker and threw his hands up in the air, victorious. âIâm pretty sure you cheated,â Kendall mumbled. âDonât be a sore loser.â âIâm not, but I was killing you. Your massive comeback is fishy, admit it.â Maxâs mouth dropped open. âThat is a lie. There was nothing fishy about my comeback. You opened up that side for my guy to get through!â âAre you going to give Max kisses because he won?â Simon asked, completely putting an end to their playful argument. My Life, Loves and Passion - Review & Excerpt âWhich one were you again?â Kendall asked, recognizing that Lucyâs guard was down. âHa-ha. Iâve been both. At the same time,â she added. âNow, stop making this about me.â I Am A Reader - Guest Post At the heart of the story is Kendall and Simon, a mother and son who are both still grieving the loss of their husband/father. Kendall struggles with how to help ease her sonâs anxiety after his fatherâs death. Feeling helpless is something to which all parents can relate. Kendall is sensitive to her sonâs needs and has to find a way to balance what he wants with what he needs. Itâs not always so easy to distinguish between the two... Lola's Reviews - Review I really enjoyed this story, it had some really sad and some really happy moments. The characters where what made this book shine, they all had a past, personality and motives, even the side characters. This book has a fun and quirky cast of characters and I enjoyed seeing them interact with each other. Wishful Endings - Review The Better Man was quite an original story and one I haven't read before in this genre. The leading man looks almost exactly like the heroine's dead husband and this causes all sort of issues because they have to work together. Sparks definitely fly, both good and bad, but the author kept a great balance between heavier issues (such as Kendall's son who has become mostly mute as a way to deal with his father's death), humor, and then those sweet romantic moments. by Amy Vastine Adult Romance Harlequin Heartwarming January 1st 2014 Kendall Montgomery's six-year-old son has barely spoken in the past year, locked in his world of silent grief.

Yet if Greg wants to make his exposé his ticket out of town rather than a veritable death sentence, he will have to learn to play the game and find a team to help him. Combine the underbelly of Friday Night Lights with the unflinching honesty of Walter Dean Myers, and you will find yourself with Eric Devine’s novel of debatable truths, consequences, and realities.

Nix, Queen of Wands, has exactly what she wants—Synn El’Asim, the greatest Mark the world has ever seen. Even though she bound his soul to hers, he is not easily controlled. If she wants him, she must do the one thing that pains her most. Let him go, and give him what he desires. Peace. Armed with a treaty bearing Nix’s seal, Synn sets off to bridge the gap between the world’s two reigning tyrants—the Hands of Tarot and the Great Families. He struggles to trust Nix as he fights for control of his soul. He’s going to need every ounce of restraint when dealing with his mother, leader of the Great Families. She will not give up her power without a fight. Nix will honor her treaty only if Synn agrees to become her knight. His mother refuses to sign the peace agreement if he falls into the queen’s control. Frustrated, Synn does the one thing neither woman saw coming. He invites all the tribes, currently voiceless in the war between these two ruling tyrants, to partake in the treaty negotiations. All they have to do is prove their worth in his Peace Games. As Synn’s influence and subsequent power grows, a new fight begins. Who will control Synn’s League of Cities? Can he protect more people as a leader of the Great Families, or as the Knight of Wands?Find on Goodreads Purchase for only $2.99Fall of Sky City Book 1 : Amazon – Kindle| Amazon – Paperback| GoodreadsPraise for Fall of Sky CityWow! What did I just read?? The story was deliciously complex, full of fear, wonder, magic, gadgets, gizmos, one heck of a psycho Queen and wonderful friends. Every character brought something to the story, each with a unique personality that came to life through the book, each with their own fears to overcome. Victoria Limbert I love the world Blooding has created. She managed to create it in a way that it combines specs of all my favorite movies, books, etc. It’s a mixture of young adult fantasy, steam punk, dystopia, sci-fi, paranormal and even some tiny bit of romance. Fall of Sky City is a diverse book that is intense, a little bit violent, and a whole lot of awesome! I look forward to reading the next book of the series! Unputdownable Books SM Blooding is a new author to me, but this is definitely not the last book I’ll read by her. Synn El’Asim is a powerful character–the reader sees him grow from a young man who has not yet come into his power to a strong man who is courageous enough to fight for what he believes in–his family and his people. The world building Ms. Blooding does is nothing short of remarkable. A world composed of flying ships, ice worlds, danger, and intrigue. My World of Dreams This book is action-packed and intense. You feel like you’re part of the drama. This story is intense. The action is perfectly paced. I had trouble putting the book down. I really felt for Synn from the very beginning. He goes through so much. As soon as he gets his mark, he is plunged into one situation after another. Queen Nix, who is horrifying by the way, pushes Synn to new levels, in more and more diabolical ways. With the help of friends and family, Synn becomes a strong leader. Waiting on Sunday to Drown I’m amazed of the world Blooding has created and built. It has Sky, Land, and Water Cities. These cities each has its own technologies, language, and a whole different way of life. These worlds remind me a lot of Avatar the Last Airbender and Star Wars, which I both loved wholeheartedly.Bahrain Newspaper Article Review!Meet the Author:SM “Frankie” Blooding lives in Colorado with her pet rock, Rockie, and Jack the Bird.
