Uncontrollable by SR Johannes *Guest Post* GIVEAWAY


Hey! Today on the Blog Tour I have for you an amazing Guest Post from SR Johannes!

Come back by on Sept. 20th when I will be doing my Review for Uncontrollable, I love Love this book and this series.


Did you have one scene that played out more in your mind when you started writing Untraceable and Unspeakable?



Any time I write the book plays out in my head as a movie so I am really capturing it as it plays.

When I was first writing Untraceable, the scene that first stuck out in my mind was when Grace first comes upon the camp. It’s what she has been searching for the whole time, what she’s been obsessed with. But when she finally finds it, it struck me how deep down maybe she wished she hadn’t.

I find sometimes the thing we want the most isn’t always the best thing. That’s what that scene always reminded me of. Those things in our life we struggle and work so hard for only to find out they hurt us more than they make us happy.

In Unspeakable, I wanted to understand who Mo was. This was the hardest piece for me to write because I found I did not know Mo unless he was with Grace or seen through her eyes. That short story took me way too long to write. The first version he was boring. The second version he was creepy. The scene that struck me the most was when he is watching Grace be attacked. There is that moment I think we all have where we see something and we wonder if we should get involved. Even though it’s right too, the fear step sin and holds us back. The fear in Mo was interesting to me. Exploring that

Cover Reveal *Ten Tiny Breaths by KA Tucker & Giveaway!


I got to see the picture of this at the Decatur Book Festival and I fell in love with the cover... Then I read the blurb *gasp* you know how I feel about those.. but now I'm POSITIVE this is a must read!

Blurb : Expected Release Early 2013

Ten Tiny Breaths

Kacey Cleary’s whole life imploded four years ago in a drunk-driving accident. Now she’s working hard to bury the pieces left behind—all but one. Her little sister, Livie. Kacey can swallow the constant disapproval from her born-again aunt Darla over her self-destructive lifestyle; she can stop herself from going kick-boxer crazy on Uncle Raymond when he loses the girls’ college funds at a blackjack table. She just needs to keep it together until Livie is no longer a minor, and then they can get the hell out of Grand Rapids, Michigan.

But when Uncle Raymond slides into bed next to Livie one night, Kacey decides it’s time to run. Armed with two bus tickets and dreams of living near the coast, Kacey and Livie start their new lives in a Miami apartment complex, complete with a grumpy landlord, a pervert upstairs, and a neighbor with a stage name perfectly matched to her chosen “profession.” But Kacey’s not worried. She can handle all of them. What she can’t handle is Trent Emerson in apartment 1D.

Kacey doesn’t want to feel. She doesn’t. It’s safer that way. For everyone. But sexy Trent finds a way into her numb heart, reigniting her ability to love again. She starts to believe that maybe she can leave the past where it belongs and start over. Maybe she’s not beyond repair.
But Kacey isn’t the only one who’s broken. Seemingly perfect Trent has an unforgivable past of his own, one that, when discovered, will shatter Kacey’s newly constructed life and send her back into suffocating darkness.

Drum Roll Please........
