THE DAWN OF SKY by Lindsay Mead + BOOK TRAILER!

SYNOPSIS: Far into the future, the world is different. The climate changes and North America is a jungle. Thousands of years of evolution make everything stronger, faster, bigger, and deadlier. The Human population dwindles to only a few known tribes. At the bottom of the food chain, their extinction is near.

Sky lives alone with her father and hasn't seen another human in four Rain Seasons. Danger lurks in every shadow, but hunger drives them far from the safety of their nest to hunt. Though life is never certain or secure in the jungle, on this night Sky will have to fight like never before.


WHAT IS THIS FOR? This short story has been entered into a contest for a chance to win a spot in the Defy The Dark Anthology. The contest ends September 1st. The story is based on another book that I am currently working on, and hope to someday (soon) publish. I would greatly appreciate anyone who takes the time to read the short story and leave their feedback. The contest is not dependent on "likes" or anything of that nature, but it would still mean a lot to me.

Defiance (Defiance, #1)

Defiance by C.J. Redwine                                                                                           #BeDefiant

Within the walls of Baalboden, beneath the shadow of the city’s brutal leader, Rachel Adams has a secret. While other girls sew dresses, host dinner parties, and obey their male Protectors, Rachel knows how to survive in the wilderness and deftly wield a sword. When her father, Jared, fails to return from a courier mission and is declared dead, the Commander assigns Rachel a new Protector, her father’s apprentice, Logan—the same boy Rachel declared her love for two years ago, and the same boy who handed her heart right back to her. Left with nothing but fierce belief in her father’s survival, Rachel decides to escape and find him herself. But treason against the Commander carries a heavy price, and what awaits her in the Wasteland could destroy her.

At nineteen, Logan McEntire is many things. Orphan. Outcast. Inventor. As apprentice to the city’s top courier, Logan is focused on learning his trade so he can escape the tyranny of Baalboden. But his plan never included being responsible for his mentor’s impulsive daughter. Logan is determined to protect her, but when his escape plan goes wrong and Rachel pays the price, he realizes he has more at stake than disappointing Jared.

As Rachel and Logan battle their way through the Wasteland, stalked by a monster that can’t be killed and an army of assassins out for blood, they discover romance, heartbreak, and a truth that will incite a war decades in the making.

BOOK TRAILER PREMIERE! Wake by Amanda Hocking

Wake (Watersong, #1)
Wake by Amanda Hocking                                              #LoseYourselfToTheWatersong

Fall under the spell of Wake—the first book in an achingly beautiful new series by celebrated author Amanda Hocking—and lose yourself to the Watersong.

Gorgeous. Fearless. Dangerous. They're the kind of girls you envy; the kind of girls you want to hate. Strangers in town for the summer, Penn, Lexi and Thea have caught everyone's attention—but it’s Gemma who’s attracted theirs. She’s the one they’ve chosen to be part of their group.

Gemma seems to have it all—she’s carefree, pretty, and falling in love with Alex, the boy next door. He’s always been just a friend, but this summer they’ve taken their relationship to the next level, and now there’s no going back. Then one night, Gemma’s ordinary life changes forever. She’s taking a late night swim under the stars when she finds Penn, Lexi and Thea partying on the cove. They invite her to join them, and the next morning she wakes up on the beach feeling groggy and sick, knowing something is different.

Suddenly Gemma is stronger, faster, and more beautiful than ever. But her new powers come with a terrifying price. And as she uncovers the truth, she’s is forced to choose between staying with those she loves—or entering a new world brimming with dark hungers and unimaginable secrets.
