This Week:

She didn't know if it was the Starlights, or Marten or that arrow standing from the fiend's chest, but something had hardened into a stubborn knot inside her.  She didn't want to run anymore.

Unlikely
By:  Frances Pauli
90pg




It's now available on Amazon in eBook & Print, along with other book selling sites too:



Description:
Satina knows more than anyone that gangs are bad news. As a Granter, she uses her magic to help people escape them. So far, her sole reward has been a life on the run, dodging from pocket to pocket and only landing in the ordinary world long enough to put her special skills to use.When the goodmother arrives in Westwood, however, a magic-hungry gang is just one step behind her, and their leader wants more than just the town. He wants Satina, and he'll do anything, use anyone, to get her.

Though Satina finds an unlikely ally in Marten, the imp Skinner who manages to help more people than he hurts, it will take all the power they can summon to keep Westwood's secrets from falling into the wrong hands, to keep one wide-eyed girl from following the wrong man, and to keep Satina herself from falling in love with the only person in the world who knows how much of a fraud she really is.

    1. I'm actually really enjoying this one Melissa (B&T) And it's not creepy like the cover, but the cover does have a creepy feel. :) More of a magical and fey feel to it. :)

    1. Rivie Bleu, the cover does have a creepy feel to it, but the book isn't. It's a great magical read, almost a fey feel to it too. This is the first book of the series, so hope you get to give it a try. :) Thank you!

  13. I like these teasers...because based on the book blurb, I would have passed this one up. Not sure if it's the blurb that's possibly badly written, or something else, but I was not interested in the book based solely on the blurb. However - after reading your teaser, then it sounds way more interesting. Like something I might enjoy. Someone having had just about enough of what ever has been going on, enough to "harden" something in her. So...yep. Good thing there are teasers out there. :)
