What happens when falling in love and falling from grace collide?

After dying in a car accident with her two best friends, Lily miraculously awakens to grief and guilt.

Sliding deeper into sorrow and trying to fight her feelings for two of them, she finds out who…what they really are and that they are falling too.

Can she find the strength to move on from the past, reconcile her feelings for Luc, find a way to stop a divine war with fallen angels, and still pass the eleventh grade?

In the Spotlight – J.D. Hallowell

jd author pic indie hatToday’s special guest is author J.D. Hallowell. Anyone who knows me will know that the titles alone of his books would spark my interest. I adore dragons. And magic. So it’s a particular pleasure to be able to spotlight J.D. and his series about dragons and magic. I’ve added both of his books to my To Be Read list and hope to get to those very soon!

J.D. Hallowell is a 50-ish father and husband who is fortunate enough to have lived an interesting and active life. He’s had one two-book fantasy series, War of the Blades, published, and several other fantasy and SF projects are in the works. J.D. likes to keep many irons in the fire at once, so his work experiences include such diverse occupations as automotive mechanic, cowboy, photographer, psychiatric tech, paralegal assistant, bouncer, and medical billing clerk. He studied martial arts for over thirty years. He’s been a soldier and an emergency medical technician, and served as the chief of a volunteer ambulance squad. He was a diamond courier for a while, and later owned a working kennel where he trained dogs for law enforcement as well as personal protection. Most recently, J.D. trained one service dog for himself.

Read on for more about J.D. and his Dragon series!

In the Spotlight – Cindy Young-Turner

cyt_photo

Today, it’s exciting to welcome the gifted writer, Cindy Young-Turner, to “In the Spotlight”.  Her debut novel, Thief of Hope, is a tightly written, fast-paced read, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I pretty much blew through it, turning pages on my Kindle as quickly as I could. The characters were fun and I loved her heroine, Sydney.

Cindy Young-Turner has always been an avid reader and became fascinated by mythology and Arthurian legends at an early age. She quickly decided she enjoyed creating her own worlds and characters and set to work writing her own stories.

She believes genre fiction can be just as well written and valuable as literature. The universal themes of love, hate, revenge, and redemption are present regardless of whether the characters live in the distant future, on other planets, or in fantastical realms.

Pet Safety in the Car

Trea4-10

One of my “pet” peeves is seeing someone in the car with their precious little dog in one arm or the pet standing on the driver’s lap looking out the window. My first thought, even before “What a cute dog”, is “If she gets in an accident that cute little dog could be killed!” I doubt very seriously the little ones ten pounds and under would survive if the air bag deploys. At best they would be hurt in some way by the airbag hitting them.

So I did some research trying to find out how many animals were injured in accidents because the pet wasn’t restrained. I found some astounding information. It turns out that there are thousands of accidents each year that are caused by unrestrained animals. The exact numbers are not known because these are put in with other internal distractions. In the case of pets, the driver gets distracted because the pet gets sick or the pet gets in the way or something else that takes their attention off the road.
