Snowy Reading....

Introducing Aura from Midnight: Century of the Vampires

Midnight:           

The world is no longer the way we remember. Few are even still alive to recall the days when midnight didn’t mean cowered away & hidden. Out of sight became our only way to survive since the...Century Vampires.  If you want to live, trust no one. 

http://www.amazon.com/Midnight-Century-Vampires-Dystopia-ebook/dp/B009Y5C69K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1354309527&sr=8-2&keywords=midnight%3A+century+of+the+vampires

Hi AURA and welcome to the Snowy Reading Blog hop. We're so excited to have you here today. 

1. Tell us a little about yourself. I have been on the run for as long as I can remember. The vampires have taken over the Earth and as long as I stay hidden, I stay alive. 
2. Do you enjoy or dislike winter? Tell us why. Winter means longer nights and that makes it easier for vampires to kill. So, no I don't like winters. 
3. What would you do on a date (or with close friends) on a snowy evening? Hide underground.
4. When it's cold and dreary outside, what makes you laugh out loud? My partner in all of this…Mark. For someone who has been through so much, he sure has a good sense of humor. 
5.  If you were sitting around a fire, playing truth or dare, what would you choose and why? Truth. We've had enough dares in this dystopian world.
6. Tell us about a winter memory from your childhood? Mama cooked us a delicious turkey for dinner, rare these days. We had to eat the meat in a closed room, windows barred. Vamps roamed outside all night. 
7. What is the most creative gift you would put under the tree? A sack of vamp repellent. 
8. Would you start a snowball fight? Yes. Mark deserves a good kick in the ass sometimes. 
9. Tell us about your favourite winter movie or book? We don't have time for movies or books these days. But we do manage to squeeze in a cuddle mow and then.
10. How do you celebrate the holidays? Be it Christmas or Hannaukah or the Winter Solstice. We have a pine tree in the old church where we hide. We sing songs softly. But we always have one eye on the barred windows.

                   ALL ABOUT ANGELS

                             E

 I have always been fascinated by angels, from stories on television, to the Bible and other books, angels have been around for a long time . I’ve read a few angel stories too. But none of them have been what I wanted. None of them were as good as I thought they’d be. Most angel stories follow the cliche of a so-called ‘fallen angel’ whose storyline rips of scenes from the Bible.

  I wanted something different, something mysterious. 

I enjoy reading and writing YA and I also enjoy mysteries and thrillers. So, I decided to combine all three elements. YA. Angels. Thrillers. But how?

The Angel Angle:

I didn’t want the typical angel-boy falls for human girl and they live off their undying, forbidden love story. So, that is how my characters Dameon, Kian, Nathaniel, and Krysta were born. I wanted to keep the reader guessing as to who is the angel and who the main character Ali Maney will actually love. A certain level of unpredictability. 

The YA Angle:

I wanted to tell a story a YA audience would enjoy and so wrote the story in first person. Ali Maney is the main character and we follow the story with her. A typical teenager at Millennium High School in NY,  the reader will be able to relate to her down-to-Earth personality. Her curiosity; however, is what draws her into this world of angels. 

The Thriller Angle: 

To have a thriller you have to have bad guys. So, naturally I picked the demons. Demons in my book can be various forms of fallen angels. Some demons are just angels that have fallen, but many of the demons are Were demons and fanged demons. Angels and demons have rules to follow and when they don’t they loose their angel wings, their angel gifts and powers...in their place are fangs or Were hair or simply having no power. 

To add to this thrill, the main character and the readers do not know who to trust until by the middle of the book. This keeps the reader on their toes. 

The Mystery Angle:

There is a suicide very early on, in the first chapter. This is the ongoing mystery through-out the novel until Ali Maney closes in on who the demons really are. This also invites a bit of thrill, and also keeps the intrigue going. 

I think this is a story many YA will love, and in fact many adults will enjoy as well. 

The novel is live April 6th on kindle exclusively.
