About the author:

I am an enthusiast of the weird, whacky, and wonderful. Vampires, werewolves, witches and everything in between. My stories tend to run on the dark side but I try to look for the light in things too.

What inspired you to write your book?

I was posting bits of novels on facebook and wanted to be able to put something out right away. So I wrote something that I loved, and put it up.

Here is a short sample from the book:

I had no memory of going into the woods. But I knew that was where I was by the feel of the pine needles in underfoot, the surrounding trees, wet dirt, and the cold. My shoes had been misplaced somewhere. I had on no jacket and the snow from earlier lightly covered the ground.
I walked through the forest, trying to find my way back to Grandma’s house. A snapping of a twig made me jump. I turned to see a tall, dark haired guy with yellow eyes standing before me. He wore a grey t-shirt, along with a tight, leather jacket. “A pretty little thing like you shouldn’t be alone in the woods at night,” he warned.
“I’m not that little,” I told him, “and really, if anyone shouldn’t be out in the woods it’s a creepy lurker guy.”
He chuckled. “To be fair, I’m a resident. You’re not. I would know. I’ve seen all of the pretty girls in The Hollow. And I haven’t seen you before.”
I tilted my head to the side. “Well, well, well. Aren’t you the charmer?” “You’re lost, aren’t you?” he said.
I glanced around, only to find more trees. The cottage as well as the main house was nowhere to be found. “Alright smart ass, how do I get back to the Barton place?”
The stranger cocked his head to the side. “Now, what’s a pretty girl like you doing hanging around a place like that?”
I bristled at his words. It annoyed me that he thought there was something wrong with the family mine had taken care of. It was weird, I know since I hadn’t even met them. But I felt inclined to be protective after growing up with their stories. “My grandmothers the grounds keeper.”
“Oh, you mean Teresa?” he smiled. “She’s a lovely woman.”
“Very,” I agreed.
A few white flakes had started falling again, and I shivered. He shook his head, taking off his own leather jacket and giving it to me.
“You certainly aren’t from around here. No one goes out into the woods without a jacket. Listen, pretty girl, there are some rules you need to know if you’re going to survive. And I so hope you do, because we could use some fresh meat in these parts.” “Fresh meat?” I said, pulling my hair out of the back of the jacket.
“Yes,” he smiled, revealing sharp, pointed teeth that reminded me of fangs. “There are three rules to surviving Barton Hollow. The first is don’t trust the werewolves. The second is don’t trust the werewolves. Third, don’t go into the Barton house. And fourth, don’t trust the Grave Keeper.”
“That’s four rules. Do I just follow the first three? And don’t you mean the grounds keeper?” I said, offended on my Grandma’s behalf.
“No. You should follow all of them. I simply forgot to give you the most important one. Bad memory, you see. It happens when you’re old” he explained, “your Grandma’s alright. She’s neutral. But the Grave Keeper, he’s bad news.”
I laughed. “You don’t look old, but you sure do sound like an insane old person.”
“Don’t I know it, pretty girl. But that don’t mean I’m not right. Now, if you keep on walking in the direction of my tracks you’ll find your way back to where you need to go. Have a good night, and stay out of trouble. Be seeing you around, I expect.” The handsome stranger nodded curtly at me. Before I could say or do anything he had vanished disappearing into the deep, dark trees.

    The Darkness of Glengowyn by Isabo Kelly

    0 out of 5

    They’ll risk forever death for one last chance together…

    Nuala of Glengowyn hasn’t left her home city in over a century, but not by choice. Her skill as a weapons master has made her a prisoner of her people. Held apart, protected in the extreme—until Sorcerers attack the human city of Sinnale.

    Sent to supply her unique magical arrows to help the humans, she is far from free. The elf king and queen have sent a bodyguard, a fearsome warrior whose reputation has no rival. The only man she has ever wanted. Einar of Glengowyn.

    Einar is known as a battle-crazed destroyer, so feared among elves he’s called by a single name: Darkness. And he has only one weakness—Nuala. Their union is forbidden, for melding their magics could destroy Nuala’s gifts. Yet as they journey to the war-torn city, no royal decree is a match for two hundred years of pent-up desire.

    But even if they escape the war zone, their lives still hang in the balance. They must confront their sovereigns and prove love makes them stronger—or face their deaths.

    Product Warnings

    This book contains a deadly elf hero, a heroine who’s his match, a lot of sexy misbehaving, some hard language, racing through the streets, owls, arrows, evil Sorcerers, wicked minions, and a very dangerous elf king and queen.

    The Heart of Hannen: Book I in The Atriian Trilogy by Fawn Bonning

    0 out of 5

    * Awarded Runner-Up in romance – 2014 New York Book Festival

    An epic tale of dark fantasy, erotic romance, and horror.

    Christine is a troubled teen with a dark past. She is miserable in her small town where she feels destined to live her life as an outcast.

    She has no idea that her true destiny lies in a different town . . . and in a different world, a most brutal world called Atriia. There she will learn the true meaning of misery, the true meaning of loneliness and shame.

    And in the arms of a most unlikely candidate, she will also learn the true meaning of love.

    He is Hannen Fallier, the one they call the foul fraigen dropper, revered by men for his fearless feats, yet looked upon by women with open disdain. With a face horribly mauled, he hides behind a mask of shame, deeming himself unworthy of love.

    That he would seek acceptance from Christine is irony in its purest form. That he would seek her love . . . the ultimate betrayal.

    **Mature subject matter**

    **Warning – Enter Atriia at your own risk, but beware, it is not for the faint of heart. If you do decide to brave your way within, you will need the aid of the dictionary located at the back of the book.
