Hello there my friendlies!

Sorry I’ve been away for about a week or so, I tend to get quiet online when I’m working on something new, hehe *winkwink*

Today though, today is such a special day! I have something totally awesome to share with you — MAKE BELIEVE tchotchkes! (yes, I still say it enthusiastically, like YAHTZEE!)

Check out my soon-to-be-new email signature, oh-so-pretty bookmarks (front and back, squee! you know what that means — giveaways! *soon!*) and while I’m loving the red in that web banner at the bottom, I’m really more interested in seeing what you guys think!

Helloooooo there my friendlies!

Whew! Long time no see! Well, feels like it for me anyways I’ve been a hustlin’ and a bustlin’ doing some behind the scenes stuff for bookish type things I’ll get to share with you very soon! woohoo!

Until then, I’d like to share what I’m reading this week — actually, what I’m re-reading. Yup, I enjoyed this novella so much that I’ve slipped into analytical mode to study some components of the storytelling, hehe!

HONOR THE PACK by Kaycee A. Looney was a second place winner in the Preditors & Editors Readers Poll 2011 for Short Stories, Romance (click HERE to view results! ), and an excerpt is available for viewing through Gypsy Shadow Publishing HERE ).

I have the blurb and the cover for you to check out

Honor the pack without question. It is the only life Eshla has ever known, but her wolf pack is starving and a single hope remains. One of them must leave the forest and bring back easy prey—human prey. Chosen by the pack elders to shed her wolf form, Eshla sets out for the nearest human settlement to walk among them and gain their trust.

Yet when Eshla meets Connell, she can’t decide if she’d rather run from him or be near him. As she struggles to comprehend her feelings, she begins to question her ability to fulfill her duty to the pack. Then Connell reveals that he is the son of an adopted aunt she never knew existed, and everything Eshla thought she knew about her transformation, and honor, dissolves into chaos.

So, whatcha reading today?

Heart’s Desire by Julie Reece

After a terrible accident, Tessa returns to her family beach house to heal. She doesn’t expect to see her first summer crush from seven years before. Cameron, though, reappears and ignites a relationship that’s far more intense than ever before. The only problem? Summer is once again coming to an end, and this time, Tessa will have to decide whether to choose life with Cameron or to never see him again.

The Sweetest Song by Claire Gillian

Under Poseidon’s rule, Circe is the most destructive siren in the Pacific ocean, her songs luring ships and their crew to their watery graves. Not Otis, the best halibut fisherman in the Alaskan waters. His ship, the Calypso, has avoided disaster each time Circe set her sights on him.

Given one last chance to deliver Otis to Davy Jones’ locker, Circe takes to land to waylay the handsome captain. Instead, it may be Otis himself who hooks the Siren.

Pearl of Pau’maa by Kelly Said

Should Miki choose to wed the local wealthy boy she doesn’t love, her stomach will stop grumbling. Her soul, however, will suffocate. With one last opportunity before she must concede, she sneaks off for a final dive to her hidden crate at the bottom of the seabed. What waits for her is more than a captured lobster. It’s a treasure she cannot claim without great sacrifice or true love.

The Undergarden by Jocelyn Adams

Nixie, a water sprite, lives a solitary existence as she struggles to understand the strange world beyond her waters. When she meets one of the pink ones, a curious boy named Wyatt, their friendship blooms into a love that can exist only upon the sands that divide his solid ground from her underwater paradise. Some love, though, once born, cannot be undone, even in the face of death.
