Cover Reveal: The Glass Tower (The Rose Chronicles, Book Two)

Today, I am literally tickled pink to share with you the cover of THE GLASS TOWER, coming January 29th, 2016.

The Glass Tower is the second book in The Rose Chronicles series.


Blurb:
Locked in the safety of the Glass Tower, Bianka plots her revenge. Her body might be the property of Kefozsé, but her heart and soul belong to Batar. For him, she’ll do everything possible to fight for her freedom.
Artemis and the Oracle keep a close eye on their protégé as she begins to unravel their carefully laid plans. The fate of the kingdom now lies in the balance. Bianka cannot be allowed to do as she pleases.
A sudden turn of events pushes Bianka to the brink. Using her wit and charm, she soon entices new blood to the palace’s doors. Upon losing the trust of those shielding the kingdom from prying eyes, she unlocks the door to something even she isn’t prepared for. Little does she know, her duplicity comes with a heavy price.

And then there was one...

So, I am just going to put this out there. I AM RUBBISH at the whole blogging thing. But after talking about the possibility of closing down the blog with my team. We agreed that I just HAD to make a better effort.

And here I am.

So what's been happening in my world since I last, ahem, blogged?

Well, A LOT.

In the past eighteen months, so many wonderful and equally crappy things have happened in my life. I have lost friends, gained friends. Lost my confidence and regained it. I found myself at the bottom of the well, drowning. Consumed by desire, but broken by despair. It was a horrid place to be.

And then I sucked it up, killed off the self-deprecating ego and became proactive. If anyone was going to make it happen for me, it was ME.

Yes, I am the master of my own destiny and it is I who controls how far I go in this big old beautiful world of ours. No one else can make things happen for me, well, some can, but I had to put the work in.

I pulled on my big girl pants, I sat down and wrote, wrote, wrote .... and wrote some more.



Then something beautiful happened.

I saw my worth and so did the people in my little world.

I was signed by the incredible Italia Gandolfo in July of this year and ever since, it has been a whirlwind.

The self-belief I had in myself all those years ago has come back. Yes, I KNOW I will have days when I will doubt myself, but on those same days, I will overcome that doubt and continue writing. There is nothing else for it.

I was born to put pen to paper, to create worlds and stories. To give other's an outlet. To provide entertainment. To leave a legacy of my words behind me. And even after all is said and done, the hardships, the tears and the rejections have made me hungrier and like a beast, I will devour my future and claim it as my own.


My mantra for today: Never doubt your abilities. You are worth every tear, smile and good thing that comes your way. Self-belief comes from within. Let it shine xoxo

Book Review: Never Never by Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher

"How odd to be made of flesh, balanced on bone, and filled with a soul you've never met."
   
Charlize Wynwood and Silas Nash have been best friends since they could walk.  They've been in love since the age of fourteen. 
But as of this morning...they are complete strangers.
Their first kiss, their first fight, the moment they fell in love...every memory has vanished.
"I don't care what our real first kiss was," he says. "That's the one I want to remember." 
Charlize and Silas must work together to uncover the truth about what happened to them and why.  But the more they learn about the couple they used to be...the more they question why they were ever together to begin with.


"I want to remember what it feels like to love someone like that. And not just anyone.  I want to know what it feels like to love Charlie."

Never Never: A Novella Series, Part One.


What happens when Hoover and Fisher collaborate?
They conceive and give birth to something so fantastic that there are no words to describe the excitement, the thrill - the gut wrenching frustration.

This is a stellar read. So fantastic, I want to become a part of Charlie & Silas' world.

Colleen & Tarryn have done a brilliant job. So much so, I want to take them hostage and make them write the sequel faster. Only joking, well, just a tad.

Never Never is an unpredictable read. A well-written novella, told in two perspectives. Both equally thrilling.

The cliffhanger near had me pacing the floors, screaming with trepidation, but then the thought of book 2 stopped me going all Annie Wilkes, and more patient Hannibal Lecter <---- again, only kidding.

Bloody great read.
