RELEASE DAY POST FOR BEYOND BY: MELISSA PEARL!

BEYOND

(A Betwixt Novella #1.5) (Betwixt Series)

Book Description:

Have you ever been so in love with someone, but not had the courage to tell them?

Nicole Tepper is that girl. She loves her boyfriend Dale, but fearing rejection, keeps her feelings buried deep. She can’t even let on how heartbroken she is when Dale begins applying for colleges thousands of miles away from her; never even whispering a word about how much she wishes he would stay close.

But, when Dale is rejected from Colombia University in NYC, due to a police report that follows him wherever he goes, Nicole soon discovers that love can drive her to do things she never thought possible.

There's more than one way to say, I love you and Nicole Tepper is about to prove to Dale that she loves him beyond all common sense.

AUTHOR BIO:

“I used to be a full time teacher (11-13 year olds) then I became a full time mother. During that time I also found my passion for writing. Over the last ten years I have been studying the craft and putting myself out there.

My first trilogy came out in November, 2011. It has been a wild ride swimming in this indie river and I have loved so much of it. I have learned so many amazing things and met so many great people. It has totally solidified the fact I want to be a writer for as long as I possibly can!

I now have five books published and am working on a new YA Fantasy trilogy for 2013. I am having so much fun with it and can't wait to share it with everybody.

I am from New Zealand, but am currently living in China with my husband and two sons. It has been a culture shock, but it's pretty cool living in such a different country.” ~Melissa Pearl

BEFORE

(Betwixt Novella #0.5)

Description:

Dale Finnigan is a teenage rebel; he lives for parties, girls and joy riding in stolen cars. In spite of his uptight parents' constant warnings and lectures, he continues to run wild. His crazy lifestyle is the only way he can live and feel free…until his reckless behavior takes him down a path where there is no going back.

In this prequel to BETWIXT, find out who Dale Finnigan was before he became known as “scar-face”—the unassuming hero everyone underestimates.

"Gripping and evocative. A dark tale that strikes close to your heart, rekindling hope and faith." 

T. G. Ayer - Author of The Valkyrie Novels.

* * * * * * * * * * 

For every copy of Betwixt sold, a portion will be donated to a charity organisation - Love146.

* * * * * * * * * * 

Beautiful, wild-chid Nicole Tepper is hit by a car and left for dead. But when she wakes the next morning, Nicole finds herself in bed without a scratch. Perhaps she was more intoxicated than usual, as her mother is giving her the silent treatment and her friends are ignoring her as well. 

Things take a turn for the weird when Nicole soon discovers she is actually hovering between life and death. Her body is lying in the forest while her spirit is searching for anyone who can hear her. Unfortunately the only person who can is Dale Finnigan, the guy she publicly humiliated with a sharp-tongued insult that has left him branded.

Desperate, Nicole has no choice but to haunt Dale and convince the freaked-out senior to help her. Will he find her body before it's too late? Or will the guy who tried to kill her with his car, beat him there and finish her off before anyone finds out?

Betwixt Blog Tour

I am VERY excited to have A Tale of Many Reviews hosting a blog tour for me.

There are so many amazing blogs involved... sharing reviews, guest posts, interviews and of course there are a couple of giveaways running as well.

I would LOVE for you to join me for the week to celebrate my new book, Betwixt.

Below is the tour schedule.

Have fun reading all the posts. Thanks so much for everyone's support. It is truly overwhelming :)

Betwixt by Melissa Pearl - New Release

As many of you may have already seen, Betwixt is now available for purchase!! Yay!!

In keeping with the new feel of this blog (check out post: It's Time To Make Some Changes), I thought I'd kick things off with Betwixt. Perfect timing, right :)

Rather than just giving you all the normal run down on Betwixt, which many have already seen, I am actually going to answer a question put forward by one of the blog readers instead.

How do you think your childhood influenced your writing, if at all?
"I was raised in a very happy home. We did travel a lot and live around the world and I was quite a shy child, so this did make it challenging for me. In saying that, it was also good for me to see so many different cultures and be pushed out of my comfort zone. 

When I look back, one thing that has influenced my writing hugely is the fact I became a very good observer. I would often stand quietly with my parents and brother just watching... always watching. I used to love studying people (I still do). This has helped my writing so much. I was able to see different cultures first hand, understand how people react to each other differently... understand that people are different. It gave me a healthy respect and I feel as though I can include so much of this in my writing.

I have witnessed pain, poverty, desperation, loud celebrations, mob mentality... I have heard so many different accents, watched how people greet and respond to each other in a myriad of ways.

I can bring all of these observations to the writing table and I think it helps me create rich, complex characters that people can relate to."

Thank you so much for submitting this question, Paddy.

Betwixt is filled with characters that have been made complex by the harsh realities of life. It is a story I hope touches the heart and gives everyone a glimpse of the power of unconditional love.

If you would like to purchase a copy, it is available through Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and Smashwords. It will soon also be available on Barnes & Noble, Apple, Sony and Kobo.

For every copy sold, $1 is being donated to Love146 - an organisation fighting against child trafficking and exploitation.
