I love Torin St. James...
I crave his touch...
I need his strength...

Raine Cooper is certain of two things: her love for Torin St. James and her destiny to be a powerful seeress. But when she starts having premonitions, they are unclear and disturbing. Worse, they involve Torin. Not sure what to do, she keeps quiet.

But when the visions are about her and another man, Raine realizes she needs to talk to someone. Just her luck two new students arrive at her school and they seem to have answers. When with them, her powers are enhanced and her visions become clear. There is only one problem: Torin does not want Raine to have anything to do with the two girls but he won't explain why.

Can their love survive the secrets they are keeping from each other?

One lost love.

One lost best friend.

One hot soul reaper.

Straight out of the psyche ward, Cora just wants her life to be normal. She doesn’t want to see souls or the reapers collecting them. The love of her life, the guy she’s loved from a distance for years, has moved away without saying goodbye. So yes, she’s nursing a serious heartbreak. It’s no wonder love is the last thing on her mind when Echo storms into her life.

The chemistry between them is mind-blowing. The connection defies logic. It doesn’t help that Echo is the poster boy for everything she hates in a guy—hot, beautiful, and cocky. A general pain-in-the-butt. Being around him makes her feel more alive than she’s ever felt before. But more important, the souls leave her alone when he is around.

Echo is perfect for her. Echo might even be her soul-mate. There is only one problem. Echo is a freaking soul reaper. A Grimnir. The very beings she wants out of her life. Maybe normal is overrated because Cora wants it all. Answers. Love. A life. You see, once you fall for a Grimnir, your life will never be the same again.

EXCERPT

“You, doll-face. Why are you having a shitty day?”

I glared ahead. “Because you are screwing with my head. How come you keep saying things I don’t remember?”

“I told you. The Norns put a whammy on you.”

“Norns?”

“Deities of destiny. Mean, bitter hags. They control the destiny of all beings—Mortals, Immortals, even the gods. Interestingly, I just found out why they targeted you and erased your memories.”

“Why?” Not that I believed his rambling.

“Say please.”

I was tempted to ignore him, but something weird had happened to me and I wanted answers. I eased the car into a parking spot across from my school, switched off the engine, and turned to look at Echo. He was dressed in all leather again today. I realized that what I’d assumed was a leather shirt was actually a vest of some kind. Once again, he wore fingerless gloves and silver Gothic rings with weird markings.

“Please,” I said through clenched teeth.

He touched his lips. “I want a kiss, too.”

I narrowed my eyes. “Why are you such a tool all the time? You think this is fun for me? Not remembering things? Waking up one morning and seeing souls? Ending up in a psych ward, where they pumped me full of drugs, then coming home only to be met by you, a reaper?”

“Grimnir,” he corrected then frowned. “Are those the fake memories the Norns gave you? Psych ward? That’s just wrong.”

“I was in a psych ward,” I snapped.

He raised his hands. “Okay. No need to be snippy.”

“I’m not—”

He covered my mouth then smirked when I bit his hand. I bore down until I tasted blood. He didn’t even wince. His grin broadened instead.

“Drink my blood, doll-face. Bond with me for eternity.”

The thought was scary. I pushed his hand away and wiped my mouth. “Ew. Can your blood do that?”

He laughed.

“Will you be serious for even a second?” I asked.

“Don’t you want to be mine forever?”

“Ew, no.” I made a face. “I don’t even like you.”

Blog Tour: IMMORTALS (Runes #2) by Ednah Walters



Book Title:  Immortals
Series:  Runes
Author:  Ednah Walters
Release Date:  August 5th 2013
Genre:  YA Paranormal Romance
Length:  342 Pages
Publisher:  Firetrail Publishing
So, we have something special for you! Yep, we have a secret. But not just any secret... nope, we have TORIN'S SECRET! Oh yea, he's got a whopper of a secret, and he's decided to trust Living Fictitiously, and all our fabulous followers with it. So, check it out... but shhhhhh, remember it's a secret! 

TORIN’S SECRET

Okay, I know a secret stops being a secret once you tell someone, but this one will eventually come out, so I say why not it tell now. It’s not like the people involved have time to read blogs.
Before I start, let me explain. Valkyries work in pairs or groups of two. ”Why?”, you may ask. We split the souls. Half go to Valhalla and the other half goes to Falkvang. Grimnirs, or grim reapers, travel in packs and all their souls head straight to Hel’s Hall. They are competitive. They are mean. They are douchebags.  They get off on steals. When I say steals, I mean swooping in and nabbing our souls.

One in particular is a general pain in my ass. Echo, Hel’s number one reaper. Echo and his group of miscreants hold the best record on steals. They have never stolen one of mine, but they came close once. I vowed I’d snap his neck if he ever tries it again.

To cut the story short, he pulled a fast one on me. I was to reap a soul a few months ago, a soul so important to the gods I couldn’t even tell Andris about it. The soul was Echo’s to reap. When I arrived at the hospital, he was already there, waiting, playing one of his damn instruments. He does pretentious things like that. He knew why I was there. I could see it in his eyes.

I offered Echo everything, to help him reap a few hundred souls for him and personally escort them to Hel’s Hall. Anyone who knows me is aware I hate going to Hel. But Echo said no. I offered to round up runaway souls, ghosts as you humans call them. He laughed. I knew then he wanted something. When he said I owed him a soul, I thought he was bullshitting. No Valkyrie has ever willingly looked the other way while a Grim takes off with a soul slated for Valhalla or Falkvang.

I had no choice but to agree.

So there you have it. My secret. I owe a Grimnir a soul. No Valkyrie has ever done that. Worse, once a soul ends up in Hel, you can’t get it back. If anyone finds out, I’d get a one way ticket to Hel. I’m talking about being permanently stationed there as a guard. No more reaping. No more coming to earth. No more seeing the girl I love. I have a feeling Echo is going to make me sweat before he collects. But you know what? The soul I wanted was worth it.


BLURB

Nothing can stop Raine Cooper when she wants something…
Raine finally knows that her gorgeous neighbor, Torin St. James, is a legend straight out of Norse mythology, and that her feelings for him are strong. Torin is crazy about Raine too, breaking the one rule he lives by: Never fall for a mortal. The problem is he no longer remembers her, his memories erased by Norns—Norse destiny deities—to punish her for defying them.

She will make Torin forget his one rule a second time and fall in love with her all over again.
But she quickly learns that well-laid plans do not work when dealing with deities and supernatural beings. Desperate, Raine makes choices that could not only tear her and Torin further apart, but lead to the destruction of everything and everyone she loves.




Review:
Oh Ednah, you never let me down woman! I love it! I completely fell for Torin St. James in Runes, book 1, and I only fell harder for him in IMMORTALS. This book digs even deeper into the mythology aspect of this story, and we get more of Eriik! Which I loved, because well, Eriik is a great character.


I really enjoyed this follow up because Raine really gets to spread her wings. She goes after what she wants. She stands up and takes it like a man so to speak. Torin doesn’t remember her, and her efforts to jog his memory aren’t so successful, but Raine is one determined little thing. I love her spunk and drive. Even when you think she’s giving up, she gets a little jolt and goes right back to attacking the issue. And this time, the issue isn’t really Torin related. She’s so dedicated to her friends and family that it’s pretty inspiring, and when it comes to protecting those she holds dear, she won’t stop fighting. I can’t wait to find out what is in store next for this group of mythological entities.

Cover Reveal: IMMORTALS by Ednah Walters


Release Date:
August 5th 2013 by Firetrail Publishing
Synopsis:
Nothing can stop Raine Cooper when she wants something*

Raine finally knows that her gorgeous neighbor, Torin St. James, is a legend straight out of Norse mythology but that doesn't stop her from falling hard for him. Torin is crazy about Raine too, breaking the one rule he lives by: Never fall for a mortal. The problem is he no longer remembers her or that she saved him by making a deal with Norns, Norse destiny deities, the same Norns who have now erased his memories of their past together to punish her.

So Raine comes up with a plan...

She will make Torin forget his one rule a second time and fall in love with her all over again. But before Raine can put her plan into action, the Norns return. This time, they demand she protects Eirik Seville, her best friend since childhood, from an evil so dark even the Norns are scared.

But you know what they say about well-laid plans…

Caught between protecting Eirik and convincing the stubborn, cocky Torin St. James that the two of them are meant to be together, Raine's life slowly unravels. Friendships are tested. Enemies become allies. Desperate, Raine makes choices that could not only tear her and Torin further apart, but lead to the destruction of everything and everyone she loves.

RUNES by Ednah Walters BLOG TOUR + GIVEAWAY


Welcome to the Living Fictitiously stop on the RUNES blog tour hosted by Xpresso Book Tours.  Click HERE to see the full blog tour schedule!

Runes 
by Ednah Walters
Publication date: May 20, 2013
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance

Synopsis:
Seventeen-year-old Raine Cooper has enough on her plate dealing with her father’s disappearance, her mother’s erratic behavior and the possibility of her boyfriend relocating. The last thing she needs is Torin St. James—a mysterious new neighbor with a wicked smile and uncanny way of reading her.

Raine is drawn to Torin’s dark sexiness against her better judgment, until he saves her life with weird marks and she realizes he is different. But by healing her, Torin changes something inside Raine. Now she can’t stop thinking about him. Half the time, she’s not sure whether to fall into his arms or run.

Scared, she sets out to find out what Torin is. But the closer she gets to the truth the more she uncovers something sinister about Torin. What Torin is goes back to an ancient mythology and Raine is somehow part of it. Not only is she and her friends in danger, she must choose a side, but the wrong choice will cost Raine her life.

Review:
Please give it up for my most favoritest lady in the wild and wonderful world of books, Ms. Ednah Walters, because well.... she's done it again. Yep, she rocked my socks off and left my chin on the floor. There may also have been some drooling over the oh-so-sexy Torin St. James and some huffing and puffing because I have to actually wait for book 2. I'm slightly impatient because I loved this book so much. But, I would expect nothing less from the fabulous Ms. Walters. (she might be cringing over me calling her Ms. Walters *giggles*). 

So, as many of you know I'm a totally fan of the Fitzgerald Family series, which is Ednah's Contemporary Adult Romance series (ps. she writes it under E.B. Walters and you should totally check it out), so it's probably not a surprise to you all that I would read her brand spankin' new New Adult Paranormal Romance. Let's face it, the woman knows her romance, and her audience. This book (soon to be series) is geared toward a bit of a younger audience with the characters being in High School.  Don't let the "New Adult" tag get to you, it's not synonymous with "smut". There is NO smut in this book. 

Now, there is SOME VERY SEXY MAN CANDY! Well, roughly (and I stress roughly) 19 year old sexy man candy. We're talking black hair and blue eyes (my favorite combination) on a Harley. Yeppers, this bad boy rides a motorcycle... also one of my favorite bad boy things.  And he has the cutest nickname for Raine. No I'm not telling you! You have to read it silly!

The thing that stood out the most for me about this book is the paranormal aspect. Yes, there are a lot of paranormal books out there, but the paranormal aspect in RUNES was so different from what I've read before. I don't want to give the surprise away, but I will tell you that I couldn't even begin to figure out what paranormal "thing" (for lack of a better term) Torin was or what his world revolved around. I tend to be a little disappointed when I can figure it out on my own or I feel like I know what's coming, but that was SO not an issue with this book. Ednah has done an absolutely fantastic job with this story!

Go on... you know you want to one-click it. And you definitely should. Every possibly buy link you could need is below, and I promise, you won't be sorry. And if you're one of those people who get green just thinking about how long you'll have to wait for the next book in a series, no worries, Ednah assures me that book 2, IMMORTALS will be out in July! So like I said... GET ON IT ALREADY! And please, let me know what you think and share the love!
