My Gage!!!


Character Interview Gage Oliver

AM- Gage! I’m so happy to have you here today. You are so very loved, and for some reason as of late, you’ve been the focal point of much controversy. What do you make of all this?

Gage – I think once the truth comes out people will see if they were wrong or right about me. I know where my loyalty lies and soon everyone else will too. 

AM- You’re a senior next year, any thoughts on what you might like to do post graduation? 

Gage – A neighboring island has a university, I’ll probably be applying to in the fall. I was thinking I might try out for the team—see if I make the cut. I don’t know. I guess it depends if I can keep my grades up.

AM- You seem down. 

Gage – I am. I’ve got a lot going on right now. I upset a lot of people—guess they thought I was something I wasn’t. 

AM -  What’s your relationship like with Logan?

Gage – It’s hanging in there—by a thread. I’m not sure if it’ll ever be the same like before Skyla came into our lives. He’s like my brother. We’ve been through a lot but nothing like this. I don’t know if things will ever be the same for us.

AM- Did you sacrifice everything for love?

Gage – Not yet, but I will if I have to. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for the people I care about. 

AM- That sounds ominous. Let’s move to a different subject. What are your thoughts on Marshall Dudley?

Gage – He’s a kook. I’d like to send him back to wherever the hell he came from. He’s nothing but a six thousand year old pervert. 

AM -  What do you think about what happened to Skyla and Logan at the stone of sacrifice?

Gage – I think it’s horrible. I never wanted that to happen.  

AM- Chloe arranged for that it. Does it change your opinion of her? 

Gage – Not for a minute. 

AM- You have the gift of knowing. Has that helped or hurt you?

Gage- I don’t know. I guess I’d have to say both. When I was little it was like a game. I would see things and when they would happen it was like Christmas. It was amazing to know I could see into the future. Lately it’s been nothing but a ball of confusion. I’m not sure I trust it anymore.

AM-  Do you know things you haven’t shared yet?

Gage- (Quiet for a moment) I know some things that are pretty painful. I know some things that if they do happen, they’ll be wonderful. I know things about Logan. I know things about Skyla, and I know things about Chloe. 

AM- Would you ever tell any of them the things you know about their future?

Gage – Not these things. Sometimes it’s best to just let the future play out, let destiny do its thing.

AM- That’s almost the opposite of what Logan said.

Gage – That doesn’t surprise me. (Dimples explode, no smile) Logan and I have a different way of looking at life sometimes. He charges, I take my time. 

AM- What kind of future would make you happy?

Gage – I want to live a simple life right here on the island, raise a family—maybe help my dad out with the mortuary or go into business for myself. I’m not sure yet. I like to write. Maybe I’ll write a book someday. 

AM- What kind of book would you like to write?

Gage – Hmm, maybe a thriller, a mystery full of love and deception. I seem to know that best. 

AM- Thank you so much for taking the time to talk to me. If you do pen a novel I’d love to read it. Is there anything else you’d like to say?

Gage – One day, I’d like to tell my side of the story. I don’t like being villainized. Things happened, and I take responsibility for those things, but I don’t think I should be judged for helping the person I love.

AM- Fair enough. I’ll see to it that you get your side of the story out. I’m really looking forward to hearing things from your point of view.  

Gage – Thank you. 

**I may be upset with him... but I still totally Love this boy** *squeee* did you see that?? Gage getting his story out?? Yeah I'm dancin around like a little girl :) 

Review: 

So you know by now how much I love love love this series, right?  Wow this one is amazing... I think I have said that about them all so far but really... they just keep getting better!

The story is moving along at warp speed and Addison just goes with whatever she wants and it all just falls into place. Your just reading along and then SMACK nope it's not at all what you thought. I LOVE THAT! 

Skyla is still just Skyla... she can't decide where her heart really lies, but I think that's because it is with 3 different guys. How can you not love something about each one of them? I know I am sooo anti Marshall it's not even funny when it comes to her but yeah there it is. 

Full on trouble just keeps coming in this one... Between Chloe, Mia, Tad and the Fems I don't know how Skyla keeps her head on straight! Chloe has Gage up her butt b/c she's holding something over her, Mia is threatening Skyla everytime she turns around with something... Tad is just an ass any which way you put it and AHHH the Fems are everywhere! I will have to say some of my fave parts included Tad and some things that happen with him.

Wicked is just well... Wicked awesomeness! 

Tomorrow is... Surprise Day and You SOOOO do NOT want to miss it! no really... BE HERE!


One Comment will win an e-book of Ethereal *if you own it give it to someone else to share in the Celestra love!!*

Day 4 Addison Moore Week Burn Review & Chloe Interview


Welcome to Day 4 of Addison Moore week!! If you have made it this far with us, We have talked to Marshall, Logan and Addison...Today we will hear from *gasp* Chloe... Dunnnn dunnn duuuuunnnnn!!!




Sixteen year-old, Skyla Messenger is having difficulties with the living and the dead. With Chloe’s diary in her hands, Skyla embarks into the mind of one of Paragon’s most twisted former residents. After accidentally kick-starting the faction war, Skyla finds herself in more danger than ever before. So, when Marshall offers her a taste of the gift of knowing, Skyla attempts to use it to alter the outcome of future prophesies. And now that Skyla’s love life seems to involve one boy too many, she must choose who to be with. If she waits too long, the decision just might be made for her.

And now.... an interview with the one and only Twisted girl that is Chloe 



Character Interview: Chloe Bishop


AM- Wow, I’m really glad to speak with you today. You’ve amassed quite the reputation on the island as the wicked mean girl. Any truth to these rumors?


Chloe – I guess it would depend who you trusted. If you asked my friends I think they would count me as loyal and forgiving. If you talked to my enemies they would suggest otherwise. If you talked to Skyla Messenger she would tell you her version of the truth, but she only knows part of the story.


AM- What do you mean she only knows part of the story? Doesn’t she know that you were responsible for more than one tragedy in her life? Isn’t that enough?


Chloe – It’s enough if you that’s all you’re interested in. She replaced me in more ways than one, but I have my methods of dealing with people like that.


AM- So you’re not done with her? You’ve already taken from her the two people she loved most.


Chloe – Have I? Or does she love herself the most?


AM – What motivates you? Power, love? 


Chloe – I have both. What motivates me is hatred. Hatred is the one constant in my life that I can count on. 


AM- Shouldn’t you rely on love—focus your attention on kindness and forgiveness?


Chloe – That’s for the weak, the powerless. 


AM- I’ve come to understand that you have an affection for Gage and yet you’re with Ethan Landon. How does that work for you?


Chloe – Gage. (Malevolent smile) Gage and I have an understanding. Ethan (averts eyes) I need him to trust me, and he does. 


AM-  Who do you see yourself marrying, raising a family with?


Chloe – (Takes a breath at the thought) I will marry Gage. 


AM-  You seem fairly confident about this. 


Chloe – I don’t waste my time on doubt. 


AM- What are your thoughts on Skyla? Who do you think she might be most likely to spend her life with?


Chloe – Skyla? I hope Skyla burns. I’d like to arrange for that myself. I think a nice bath in lighter fluid and a match would do her some good. In fact, she can give Logan and that Sector she has wrapped around her vagina both a nice long hug in the process. Now there’s a sight I’d pay to see, record it so I can watch it over and over. 


AM- Sounds like a felony in the making.  Tell me one more thing about yourself, something that would surprise the world if they new it.


Chloe – I have a secret. 


AM- I thought you might. Feel like divulging?


Chloe – I’ll never tell. But you will, won’t you? I hope you go to hell. 


AM- On that note, I think this interview is over. 

WOW, she is even a bitch to Addison... I wonder if A needed a drink after that one? LOL she gets me to...


Review

1st - some of my fave quotes from this book... "Marshall, a.k.a. Studley Dudley" sorry this was funny to me :)  

and then..."I contemplate the finer skills I've picked up since moving to the island-liar, cheat, thief, oh yeah-murderer. At least Paragon is molding me into a well-rounded asshole." Oh how I love Skyla!

Chloe's diary is in Skyla's hands now... Oh WOW! This is highly telling as to what kind of person Chloe really is. Skyla gets into reading it and just cannot stop. She's finding out all kinds of juicy details about Everyone.  

We get more into what makes a Celestra and kinda what the Sectors are all about...One in particular. I loved this one there is suspense, Love, mystery and more! 

The boys: Logan and Gage are both working hard to steal Skyla's heart for themselves. Gage plays the passive Love letting her choose because he KNOWS its going to be him. Logan is fighting for her at every turn while keeping secrets from her. 


Skyla: Poor girl she has 3 guys who are professing their love for her so what's a girl to do when your heart is in love with all 3 ... kinda. I love how Addison does this... a normal teenage girl can totally love more than 1 person, I know I did then. She is being torn 3 different ways and dealing the best she can. Each time she tries to help it gets screwed up in the most major way.....again glad to see that everything is not "perfect" all the time cause lets face it nothing in life is that way.


Marshall.... oh how I love to hate him!! This go round he has Skyla kissing him so she can share in his visions of what is coming ... and yeah that's all Imma say about that :( 


The end of this one is like... 



and everything begins to change and shake the hell out of you!



GET THIS SERIES if you haven't b/c it is SOOO worth the read!! whooot 



one comment will win an e-copy of Ethereal *if you have it already gift it to someone who doesn't so they can LOVE it too*

Day 3 of Addison Moore Week Q&A With Addison


Welcome to Day 3 of Addison Moore week here at SupaGurl Books! Today is Q&A time with Addison... It's all about her!

Find Addison Moore Hanging out at these places


So before we get started I just want to share that in her books... some ok ok MOST of her kissing scenes leave you feeling amazing! Some are intense! Some are so sweet... Here are a few examples of what I see when I read :) 
















*Sigh* ok ok .. Now All About Addison continues...


Today I am "meeting" up with Addison Moore to ask her some questions. I walk into the coffee shop looking for her *ok not really her I'm totally looking for Logan or Gage*. I spot a booth with her waiting. *dashes to booth*

SG : Hey! so sorry your waiting on me... want some coffee or are you ready to get started? *still looking around for the boys*

A: I'd love some coffee. Strong with lots of flavored creamer. Might as well make it worth it, right? Anyway, I'm SUPER excited to be here today! This entire week has me buzzing. Those character interviews were a serious blast to do.

SG: *hands you your coffee* I know I just want to say AGAIN cause I know I've said it before.... I love The Celestra Series! *giggles* No really I love everything about it. Can you tell me where you came up with the idea for it all?

A: Wow, thank you! I'm so glad you're loving it. I really have a good time when I'm writing and I always hope that will carry over to the reader. As for how I came up with it I sort of morphed two older ideas I had. One was a YA series about a group of kids who lived on an island, and the other was a story about girl who was seeing her guardian angel. I was getting pretty frustrated with both projects so I thought why not morph those ideas together? And I think it worked. 

SG: Dude! that is cool :) I love hearing how authors come up with their stories. *Glances around for the 15th time* Ok, did Logan and Gage not come with you? *huffs* Alright, Now let's let everyone know a little about you, like what is that you do in your spare time? Do you actually have any of that?

A: Oh, I do--and guess what? I write! I'm a writer and all a writer ever does is think about their stories. I plot while I do the dishes, jot down notes at red lights, and I'll look for new cover ideas while on the treadmill. I always have a pen and paper handy to write even the silliest thing that might come to mind because magically those things have a way of disappearing from memory fairly quickly. The shower and just before falling asleep are a minefield of ideas. Go figure.

SG: *Laughs* Ok now I can see that you totally have a notebook and pen hanging outside your shower. Are you hungry? I'm getting a little hungry .... What is your favorite snack food? Just FYI mine is cheesecake.

A: I am a sucker for cheesecake!! I might have to say ice cream is one of my favorite go-to food groups, and of course cheesecake ice cream is a perfect combination. Oh, and I die a little each time I take a bite of chocolate. It's killing me softly with ecstasy. Did I just go there?

SG: *bounces in the chair a bit* OH WAITER!! 2 slices of cheesecake over here!! *leans in* I really love cheesecake.... So when you were younger what type of guy did you go for, and does that translate into any of your guy characters? Wait... does that even make sense? What I mean is are any of the guys ya know your "type" of guy. *rolls eyes* You get what I mean right? ..... Addison please don't look at me like I'm insane LOL

A: OK, here's the problem, I do love me some Logan alpha male action, but I'm a sucker for the sweet sensitive type that might be prone to write a poem or two on paper or with his lips, such as Gage. Decisions, decisions.. lol! I think if I had to choose between Logan, Gage and Marshall it would be impossible, but I think, for me personally, Marshall would win out at the end of the day. We'd make quite a pair. And, I can only imagine what would happen behind closed doors.

SG: *debates whether I think Addison is still cool or not* Marshall ... really? Ok I can totally see about the behind closed doors thing. Yeah I agree about Logan and Gage though... sigh... I couldn't choose between them if they were in front of me. *I will just have them both HA Haaa* Here we are talking about those yummy boys again, this is supposed to be about you and I keep getting side tracked, so sorry. Oh I have one for ya! Let's say you've won an all expenses paid vaca to wherever you want to go *Awesome huh* Where do you go?

A: Hmm... Anywhere? Gah! Too many places to choose from. I might consider the moon because I'm betting it's pretty quiet up there and laundry isn't such a big deal, but I'm a sucker for the tropics so I'll say Hawaii. And no technology-free resort for me thank you very much. I'll need some good Wi-Fi wherever I'm at. Doesn't some facebook and a nice long nap on the beach sound perfect?

SG: Oh girl that sounds like .. yeah perfect... Dang I knew I was going to forget to ask you something... well do you read in all your glorious spare time? What kind of books are your faves? See, i love YA but man I also like a good steamy PRN too. OH OH you must read the Black Dagger Brotherhood if you haven't *rawr* LOL

A: Oh my gosh, you are the second person who told me that! I'll have to check out that series. I do read. I read tons. I read in and out of my genre. It depends what I'm in the mood for. I like humor but not every book I read has to have it. The very last book I read was M. Leighton's FRAGILE, and I just finished that today. The next book in my TBR pile is I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella.

SG: REALLY!!! you have to read them... I mean it should be like a freakin requirement that everyone who loves to read...read them. *Gets Dreamy eyes* Oh so sorry you get me talking about the Brothers and I'm lost :) kinda the way I feel about Logan and Gage! One more question then I will let you head out so that you can write some more yummy goodness for us all ;) Let's say Oh look you've won the lottery..... What is the FIRST thing you do?

A:
The lottery... let's see...Well, after I squirrel away a nest egg for the fam, I'd most likely hop on a plane and test out my theory on whether or not a nice long nap on a Hawaiian beach is perfect. ;)

SG: Addison, I will let you run on now. *Stands up to leave* Thank you so much for taking the time to talk with me so that the readers can get to know you a little better. *Pounces on ya real quick like* *hugggs* Ha! Gotcha :) *waves* See ya around!!

A: *Hugs back* Thanks girl! This was a B-L-A-S-T! Let me know when and where and we'll do it again! Thank you so very much for having me.


This is totally what I looked like after getting to chat it up with Addison!!

One Comment will win a Signed Burn Postcard!!

Day 2 Addison Moore Week Tremble Review and Logan Stops by!


Welcome to day 2 of Addison Moore week here on the blog! If you missed yesterdays post.... 
You missed the Q & A with Marshall :)




Sixteen year-old, Skyla Messenger is determined to bring back the dead. For Skyla, being an angel from the coveted Celestra faction hasn't been easy. An entire band of wicked angels is after her blood, a Sector is after something far more sinister, and her newfound powers lead her on a quest to save her dead father. Skyla and her boyfriend Logan try to piece together a plan to take down the Countenance in order to maintain their relationship, but will Skyla's burgeoning feelings for Gage get in the way? And when Skyla decides to use her powerful blood to change the fate of another deceased soul, just who is going to stop her? *This book also works as a stand-alone novel.

Logan Oliver was kind enough to sit down with Addison and answer some questions... kinda *sigh*
In case you didn't figure this out already he's my Logan :) 

AM –Logan! It’s so nice to get a chance to speak with you away from all of the insanity that goes on in that island. How are things going with you?

Logan- Let’s see—my business is suffering, I gave up my girlfriend in an effort to protect her, and now we’re both victim to our worst nightmare, so I would venture to say not well.

AM- Sorry. (Slinks in her seat a little) Obviously I know what would make you happy, taking down the Counts and getting the girl, right? So let’s go in a different direction. Tell me something that you have never told anyone.

Logan – (Shifts uncomfortably) I guess, (swallows hard) I’ve never told anyone the real story behind the protective hedge—how my grandmother received it, how it came to be in my possession and why I gave it to Chloe in the first place. 

AM- Well? Spill!

Logan – Not today. I think if I ever do tell that story I owe it to Skyla first.

AM- Fair enough. What motivates you? 

Logan- My love for Skyla, the Celestra people. I know something (his features darken) something about the future that drives me to do whatever I can to ensure Skyla and I arrive there safe, but things can change in the ethereal plane and alter everything if we’re not careful.  

AM- What is it about the future that keeps you pressing forward at such a breakneck pace?

Logan – I don’t know everything but I see a future with Skyla. I see us together and we have a life. There’s another reason, a very beautiful reason, but I don’t know if we’ll ever get there. I’ll die trying if I have to. 

AM- Sounds pretty ambiguous. Let’s try something concrete. If you could move anywhere on the planet and do anything, where would you go and what would you do?

Logan – Easy—Paragon, run the bowling alley. It’s simple and both make me happy. 

AM- What about tackling Wall Street? Or living in Paris?

Logan- That’s not the dream for me. 

AM- What’s your greatest fear?

Logan – That I’ve caused all of this misery. That in my effort to save Skyla, I walked her into the greatest harm possible. That at the end of the day she’ll think I was a bigger monster than the Counts ever could be, and that she’ll wish she never knew me. 

AM- It breaks my heart to hear that. If you could change just one thing what would you alter? 

Logan – Simple. I’d steer her clear of Gage. (Gives a little laugh) But that wouldn’t have changed anything. I think both you and I know that destiny would have found a way.

AM- Do you believe destiny always finds a way? Even if the circumstances are impossible to conquer?  

Logan – Always. There is no separation from Skyla that can ever keep us apart. Our lives were meant to be together, I can feel it. Our love is pure, it’s right—this is our story. 

AM- Will you get your happy ending?

Logan- Yes. I will grab destiny by the reins and drag it there myself if I have to. 

AM- Sounds like a battle cry.

Logan- It should. It’s going to take a war to get there. 

***Logan...Logan....Logan I'm not sure what to do with him! That was a Fantastic Interview though!

Thank you so much to Logan and Addison for taking the time to do that for us! Logan is one of my Fave guys and well i will discuss more about him as the week goes on...

Review
Wow! that is exactly how I felt when I got done with Tremble. There is a lot going on in this second book but, the author doesn't make it so that you can't keep up. The story line flows so well that you can tell whats going on and where. You get to delve deeper into this world and it's a great thing.  This is where I start to question... Everything and Everyone!

Skyla... I feel for her through out this one. She loves Logan, cares for Gage has to hide her relationship with Logan for her safety...and it all just spirals out of control for all involved. I really did enjoy reading how she felt and dealt with all the drama, emotions, and family throughout. She is put through some tough crap but keeps moving forward.




Gage... I really do love this boy. He is nothing but there for Skyla. You can tell by his actions and words that he is truly in love with her. Even though he knows her going out with him is all an act...he really feels for her and lets her know it. He also lets her know that he will give her time to work out how she feels. *sigh*










Logan... Ok I know he started rubbing me the wrong way in book one, well this one trumps that. I couldn't decide if he's just a really REALLY great actor or if he really is that big of an ass.  In "public" he all but destroys Skyla' feelings, then turns around and Loves her in private. I get the whole we can't be together...He just took it to a whole new level. This is about the time I want to see someone just Kick His ass, repeatedly :) but I still love him. I know it makes no sense but there it is.

Marshall is a new character and well... gah I'm not exactly sure what to make of him. Ok I don't like him at all. He is entertaining though :) I just know he is going to cause major trouble for all involved.

Chloe is well...I'm not sure. I think she is really sad about the way things are, but i cannot get a good feeling from her. I like that she is showing Skyla things about herself that the boys won't help her with. Then it's like bam I'm not sure if this is a good thing.

Just a side note... Skyla's family is just WOW... Tad is the biggest A-hole in the world and her sisters are giggly preteen girls and her stepbrother is the most normal calm one other than Skyla.

Capture Blog Hop (and Giveaway)


Welcome to the Capture Blog Hop with Brina Courtney! 

Let me just say these covers are absolutely beautiful! The eyes really pull you in.... 
EXCERPT from Capture!
Emina somehow saves the day, “Huh, that’s pretty sweet.  You can shift as quickly as I can.”  I think that’s as close to a compliment that Emina’s ever given.  Lacey stands there smiling, hopefully no longer embarrassed about her gift.   To be honest, it’s pretty bad ass.  I mean, I wouldn’t want to go up against her.
I stand up to walk around her and admire her gift, “Why were you hiding this from us?  You look fierce!”
She shrugs, “It’s just that.  I look fierce.  Fierce doesn’t make friends.  And, in case you haven’t noticed, I’m kind of lacking in that area.”
Hugh moves towards us, “Lacey, you don’t need to worry about that, you’ve got friends here."
Hugh walks away, stopping next to Craig before reaching the stairs, and looks at him.  “We need to start working on combat moves in the morning.  You think you can handle that?”
Craig looks ecstatic, “Handle that?  I am all over it.”
“Perfect.  Then I think we’ve done all we can for one night.  I’ll see you in the morning .  Be ready to train.  I believe the elf, Shraida.  They will come for us soon.  We’re going to war.”
I can feel the tension in the room rise.  Lacey looks solemn, but Emina and Craig look strong.  For some reason I feel like they’ve been expecting this their whole lives, maybe even preparing for it, since they were children.
