Allure Cover Reveal!!!!



So I am forever excited for this cover reveal!! I am extremely happy with the way it came out and I think it is absolutely GORGEOUS!! Regina Wamba at Mae I Design is an absolute GENIUS!! Thank you so much for bringing my vision to life G - I heart you forever!! And now for the Allure cover!!

A few things about Allure - it is a NEW series, I am hard at work on the second book in the Flutter, Discover Series, but Allure is not apart of that! It is, for now, a NA Romance with strong Fantasy Elements. I have an expected release date of March 30th, but that could easily change! Below is the blurb, cover, full wrap and a little snippet from the book. I hope you enjoy!



Temptation. Desire. Deception. 

Everything about her is enthralling, enticing… until everything about her becomes deadly.

Alluring you into the center of her world, she’ll deprive you of reason, breath… life. And because you can’t help it, you’ll let her, and death never felt so good.

There is only one rule where she is from: Don’t become attached to your Allure, and Ryleigh has already broken that rule.

The decision to stay was easy, but being ready to handle everything that comes with her choice, is more then she bargained for when suddenly something unexpected happens. Ryleigh is thrown into a world she knows nothing about, and a past she can’t remember. Time is not Ryleigh’s only enemy, but the lack of it, will be the end of her immortality if she doesn’t remember what she is or the life she needs to take.

When the cost of immortality means consuming the life of someone you love, could you do it?! 


Excerpt from Allure:


Hey body against mine was like a burst of sparks igniting, and I wanted to explore every inch of her exposed skin like she had mine. The flash of panic that swirled inside her hazel eyes was the only thing that stopped me.
“Are you scared?” I asked.
My free hand moved to her neck, searching for the pulse I was hoping was raging wildly. My fingers curled around the back of her neck and I stroked the soft skin there. I had never felt skin so soft before, I was distracted by the silk under my fingertips, but when my thumb brushed over the point on her neck where I should have felt the proof of life, I frowned. I applied more pressure, not enough to hurt her, just enough to find what I was looking for. I found nothing.
“What the hell
My eyes grew wide, and I fell back a step, dumbfound. Her hand caught my elbow as I attempted to move away from her, and her fingers traced firm lines down my arm, before encircling my wrist. She tugged me toward her. I should have been stronger. My six feet, two inch, athletic, frame, should have claimed rightful dominance over her tiny figure, but I felt that same warm sensation moving up my arm, she was pulling me toward her again. Losing myself in her ensnaring gaze, I was being drawn to her again.



Full wrap


 
I hope you enjoyed the little preview! Thank you so much for everyone who helped and shared the Allure cover!!

Rlease Day - Leslie Dover


HAPPY RELEASE DAY LESLIE!!



He leans down, lips parted, and then our lips connect……….We didn’t know that this one kiss has FOREVER changed the Land of the Fae.
            According to the Prophecy proclaimed many years ago, Princess Calista of the Summer Court is destined to change the Land of the Fae from the evil determined to destroy it.  Her powers are phenomenal, and she secretly trains for battle with her handsome warrior friend, Merrick, who unbeknownst to her protects her heart as well, in hopes of keeping it for himself.  At least, until the seductive Prince Ryder attends the Guardian Ceremony and instantly sends a fire burning through her veins and a connection so deep they both discover a love above anything imaginable.
            No one knows how Calista is destined to change the kingdoms, but there is one that does.  He not only craves Calista’s power, but her body as well, and his goal is to steal her power, make her his Dark Queen, and take over the Land of the Fae. 
            Will the evil succeed in claiming Calista’s soul?  Or will the two men that fight for her heart save her from despair, and help her fulfill her destiny to become what she was meant to be.  




About the Leslie Dover


I am an avid reader that loves my collection of books. Writing has always been a passion of mine and now I am glad I get to share my passion with the world. I live in North Carolina with my husband and two beautiful girls.  I absolutely love being a southern girl. I spent several years in college starting out with a major in Psychology and then switching to dental. I worked in the dental field for eight years and then decided to stay home with my two beautiful girls. I spent the beginning of my reading years reading suspense thrillers, but now I can't get away from the paranormal/fantasy books. I knew ever since then that if I wrote anything it would be in a paranormal aspect. Now that I have started on my passion and began writing, you will not see me go anywhere without a notebook and pen.






Congrats Leslie!!

Cover Reveal - Ashley Lavering!



Star Cursed
Second Book in the Curse of the Beast Series
By Ashley Lavering


Book Description:
Chel finished tying me to the chair and stood. “This is crazy.”
I ignored her comment. “Go down to the basement.”
“Now, I know you’ve lost it.” She folded her arms. “How will this prove that your giant dog is the hot guy that got in your van?”
“I’ll explain later. Just trust me.”
One of her eyebrows rose.
“Please?” I waited for her to nod. “Once you’re down there, I want you to whisper something. Then come back up.”
“Whatever.” With an eye roll, she left the room.
I focused on her feet thumping against the wood stairs and heard the change when they slapped across the tiled kitchen floor. Once the basement door closed, I strained to hear her, but all I caught was a beetle scuttling across the kitchen. Nerves tangled in my gut. Had I missed it?
“If this doesn’t work, I’m calling the loony bin, Tay.” Chel’s voice rang so loud that I jerked back, toppling the chair. I hit the floor with a thud.
Beast’s airy chortle resonated from outside the window.
“Shut up. This isn’t funny,” I told him.
Chel walked through the door. “Geeze, what happened?” She hurried to me. “Are you okay?” She righted my chair with a grunt.
“That depends.”
“On?” She cocked an eyebrow at me.  
 “On whether or not you’re going to untie me.”
“Oh my gosh. I’m so sorry.” She scrambled to untie the knots.
My hands slipped free and I rubbed my bruised arm. “What kind of friend are you?”
“What?” She startled.
I shook my head at her. “I can’t believe you’d commit me.”
“Wait, you heard that?” Her eyes widened.
I repeated it word for word.
“Whoa, that’s, like, creepy and awesome at the same time. But I still don’t understand how this proves your dog is a werewolf.”
The dreaded moment had arrived and nerves attacked my stomach. “Because, Chel—he bit me.”

Seventeen-year-old Tayla will never forget Beast’s fiery-venom spreading through her body like an infection. Now, with her best friend Chel’s help, she must find a human true love before the last petal falls from her enchanted rose or the full moon will transform her into a wolf forever.
But Tayla never expected that her biggest obstacle would come from inside—a wolf presence threatening to take her very soul. At every turn, the she-wolf exploits Tayla’s weaknesses and gains enough control to sabotage her dates. Tayla struggles to control her unruly wolf and her forbidden attraction to Beast. But can she resist his southern charm, the she-wolf’s attraction to his alluring scent, and still fall in love with a human?
Tangled in a web of wills, Tayla must risk everything to break the Curse of the Beast. With failure and possible death looming overhead, Tayla will do anything to find true love. But will one moon cycle be long enough to conquer her wolf and remain human? Or will she become a permanent member of Beast’s pack? Find out in the second installment in the Curse of the Beast series.
