Black Satin Blog Tour give@way


"It has been said that a Raven  created the world and that a Raven will be the one to destroy it, not from hate,but from the very thing from witch the world was created. Love
Love is the ravenbirds's greatest weakness,and also its greatest strength.
When the ravenbird loves, he loves deeply, immensely, intensely, irrevocably."






What if you weren’t who you thought you were?

What if your whole life changed in an instant and you were released to a new identity?

What if you were forced to kill the one you love?

What if everything you knew wasn’t real, and you awaken to a new world?

What if love could take you to unknown places? How beautiful is death really?



My Review

4 out of 5 stars

Well as always Rae has managed to create a beautiful world I totally get lost in. Her writing leaves a feeling of dark and beautiful. With the second book in the Pretty in black series I have come to like all the characters a bit more. Ellie is funny and very inquisitive, never keeps her mouth shut for no one. She is intense and that intensiveness is matched by Marcus and then enters Mr Wagner (swoon) Gorgeous and wow did he make me laugh. I enjoyed everything about this book, it started off beautifully and the adventure had my heart pacing. I actually cried in one of the scenes - yes cried. We also get introduced to the land of Nuaght, were the goyls reside, I love this land with its awesome funny characters. By the writing I can tell Rae loves images and has brought vivid images to the reader through her writing. The plot has moved along wonderfully in the second book, one I did not see coming, now I await to be sucked into Raven in the Grave #3 of the PIB series

What I've Become







Part One

Trace 

I had been thinking of everything I used to want to be.
This was the story that was my life.
These were the lies that had created me
A trace of a life that had collapsed
Entombed within a destiny of the rise,
Above a very dangerous fall.



Prologue
ll my life, I had searched for something, something I
thought I ought to be. I felt like I was living someone
else’s life, waiting for the awakening of my own. I felt like
an empty shell burning for life. That was, until the day I lay dying in
the prince’s chambers. I could no longer feel the pain from the tear in
my gut. The only sensation left was a hollowed-out feeling that I had
made a huge mistake in assuming that taking my own life, would have
stopped the ancestors’ spirit from raging out. I had given up. I didn’t
want to see myself killing the ones I loved. I was the Chosen one, but I
threw it all away for what I thought would save a life. Could you end a
life to save a life? I did, and I have regretted it ever since. I realized then
that things like me are not meant to exist. What had been missing my
whole life? It was I. To find myself, I had to lose myself in the worst
possible way. The consequences of my actions became the legend of
The Broken.


Chapter One 

Oh, Star 



I wasn’t sure why they called us The Broken, but what I did know for sure was that we were different from the other human inhabitants of the planet, not physically, but in spirit. We were the third generation with a huge (some would say a cursed) destiny. Poseidon is the planet on which we resided. It was set in a milky way much like our home planet – Earth. Global warming, war and evil undertakings were said to have contributed to Earth’s destruction. So it was said. Did I believe it? No. I believed that there was a lot more to the story behind our origins. I could feel it in the cold burn of my legs sometimes and I could see it on the faces of my peers as we walked down the hallways of our school. A haunting feeling stared back at me as I looked upon my reflection in the monitor every morning. The color of my irises had changed twice since I had hit puberty. Was that normal? No way. I often wondered why I was the only one who had experienced that strange side effect of puberty. But there was something else, something I kept secret from the Council – from Kim – that might have confirmed my suspicions.....

The Broken Series Reveal book two and three


Reveal day

Well as promised as soon as my  FB page hits 300 likes I will reveal teasers for book two and three. So thank you to all my online friends who have made it possible.


above is an image I have teased you guys with for a while. The image only represents elements, like colors and the feeling of each book. It is not an image I have created I only adapted to suite my needs, however it does fit my series just about perfectly! So perhaps I will recreated each book image above on the back page of each book. 

My plans for the Series?

Four books, each a different look  feel, and color theme, some genre cross overs can be expected in each book. 4 books in total and a prequel. Also in the works is a spin off I had actually written as a stand alone, but decided to write the awesome characters into The Broken Series.

Book one :
Her Destiny is to rise above the fall
She will become what she hates to save the ones she loves
Through it all she will find herself for that is her Destiny
The Broken Destiny 
To be released near the end of the year

Slight cover change in the works, but Ill keep the girl.  :)
The Broken Destiny page 
Each page I create as the muse strikes and each page will have its own look , sound and feel.

Book Two:
Revenge is short lived 
Where there is vengeance there can be no room for love
This is a work in progress, draft one is part of the NaNoWriMo challenge
Title Revealed in teaser trailer



You can check out the awesome pin board on pinterest

Entasy is coming your way!



Starts here

Coming to you
19 June 2012



Through tragedy
Kylah has lost all memory 
of who she really is
But soon She will find out....




Prequel to the series that will feature the warriors of The Nine


But first meet :



Aerric Aodhan (Eric Aidan)-
His name means “Alone Fire”, two things he thought he’d always be until he fell in love with Kylah. She changed his life forever.
Aerric is a dragon phoenix, the only one of his kind. He was created by the goddesses to protect them and those they care about. Due to the fact that he was indeed “made” and not born, he knows no family other than Morrigan and Brighid. He is immortal and can only die if the ones who created him cease to exist.
If he is “killed” he rises from the flames as a phoenix. As his transformation begins to complete itself his feathers turn leathery and more dragon-like. In his human form he is vulnerable to attack but only if his opponent is lucky enough to get in a winning shot. He likes to get up close and personal with the ones he engages with so hand to hand combat is his first choice. Aerric is capable of killing with a mere touch-he “incinerates” his opponent from the inside out leaving them a pile of ash.
Aerric has a special connection to the twins Zephira and Nadia which will be revealed as the series continues but for now you can know that he is very close to them and will protect them with his life. 



Hmm some kind of sexyness!!!


Cant wait to read more about this Celtic God!



He is just one of the many characters you can swoon over in this series:

My review: 



Entasy (Prophecies of The Nine, #0.5)Entasy by Brynn Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars



View all my reviews



I was totally caught up the world Brynn had created. I am a sucker for great stories, and romantic encounters.Entasy had all that and more... Strong characters, drop dead gorgeous immortals,an irritating best friend, family, and fun moments. A true urban fantasy with ancient Celtic magic caught in the middle of Kylah's high-end city life, I found unique and imaginative, luring and very intriguing. A series I would definitely follow. Brynn has almost a classic writing style, delivers wonderful sentences and heart wrenching moments. This novella is truly a wonderful way to kick the series off. Minor erotic content warning. Truly a page turner at its best, the story and plot moves quickly, and if you have read any of my other reviews, I need books to move quick, I need mystery, romance and I love to be caught of guard. Wonderfully executed in every way. Now how to get my hands on the next one...... 


Get your hands on it through amazon
Keep up to date through Brynn Myers on Facebook
