Release Tour / Book Blast

Genre: Paranormal Romance / New Adult

Release Date: 8/16/2013

New Adult Paranormal Romance by bestselling author Kristie Cook**Mature Content**Recommended for ages 16+ due to sexual situations and language.

Will a mother’s wrath make her cross the line?

I didn't want to cry. For once in my life, tears evaded me. Perhaps because I refused to grieve this loss, because it wasn't a loss in my eyes, in my heart. It was a call for war, yes. But not a loss. I wouldn't allow it.

Besides, I was too mad to cry, even in my exhaustion, and anger would get me much further.
 
As I curled my body around Sasha’s, though, I realized the anger within me had changed. I no longer felt irrational and blinding fury that dulled all other emotions. But that was okay. I really didn't want to be Psycho Alexis. This, what I now felt in every cell of my body down to the core, was better. My anger had condensed and solidified into a cold, hard stone settling within me. Something I could control and hold onto for the long term to keep me going and focused on the goal.

Wrath.

That’s what I felt. And there was nothing worse than the wrath of a pissed-off mother.

Wrath, the fifth volume in the bestselling, award-winning Soul Savers Series, will have you on the edge-of-your-seat-ravenously-devouring-junk-food as you experience the mysteries, magic, betrayals, and passion that you've come to expect from Kristie Cook’s writing.

Blog Tour & Guest Post & Giveaway: POWER by Kristie Cook

Welcome to the POWER: Soul Savers #4 Blog Tour! I'm a little late getting this up today, so I apologize, but we've got some good stuff for you! And stay tuned... there's a giveaway!! Kristie Cook is the author of the fabulous Soul Savers series. Here's a little more about her.

Kristie Cook is a lifelong writer in various genres, from marketing communications to fantasy fiction. Besides writing, she enjoys reading, cooking, traveling and riding on the back of a motorcycle. She has lived in ten states, but currently calls Southwest Florida home with her husband, three teenage sons, a beagle and a puggle. She can be found at www.KristieCook.com.

 
Kristie has been so kind as to stop by and have a little chat about the challenges of indie publishing with us. So, without further delay, here's Kristie...

The Challenges of Indie Publishing

I love being an indie author. Although I do have a publishing team who we can go to for input, the ultimate decisions are up to my business partner and me. We own the publishing company. We have the control. We decide on release dates, covers, pricing, audiobook studios and narrators, conferences…everything.

Of course, there are challenges to indie publishing, just as there are for every other road to publication. None provide smooth sailing to NYT Bestseller status and millions in the bank. In fact, each path has its standouts who are the exceptions, not the rule. Truth is the average author, regardless of publisher, sells fewer than 20,000 books. For indies, it’s fewer than 1,000. I’ve sold over 115,000 to date, with all kinds of challenges and speed bumps in the road.

I think the biggest challenge for indie publishing, though, is its biggest advantage – the control factor. Yes, you get to decide the cover you like best, but does that mean it’s the best cover to maximize sales? You get to decide the date of your next release, but do you know if that’s the best time of year or month or season to release a book?

I was able to revise my first two books and re-release them, something a traditional publisher would have never done. Was it the best decision? Did we handle the process the best way? I think it was a good decision, but I don’t know if it could have been executed better. I don’t know if changing the price of one book or another is best or not, or if a title that I think suits the book best is the one that will grab readers’ attention. I don’t know a lot.

When you’re indie, even with a small team such as mine, the decisions are all on you. You have to be adventurous with a desire to learn. You have to be willing to test new ideas. Sometimes these ideas fail. Sometimes you learn later that the idea was good but not the execution. And sometimes you win – once in a while, you win BIG. And what worked extremely well for another indie author can cause you to fall flat on your face and vice versa. And when you do fall flat (and you will at some point or another), you can’t push the blame onto someone else. It’s all you, babe. And that makes this path challenging.

I want to say you have to be fearless to be indie, but that’s not exactly true. I harbor a nugget of fear in the pit of my stomach all the time. A little fear is good because it gives you a gut feeling when faced with these decisions. But at some point, you have to swallow that fear down, make a choice and go forward. Learn from the results, whether they’re good or bad, and celebrate the wins just as much as you mourn the losses.

Having control over everything in the publishing process brings on some of the most difficult decisions you’ll have to make in your career. But these challenges allow you to grow, to improve, to progress. You gain new skills and experiences and a tremendous sense of accomplishment that makes everything worth it in the end.

Thanks so much for sharing Kristie! I am so happy that you decided to publish the Soul Savers series! I absolutely love Alexis and Tristan and the whole gang!

Book 4 in the Soul Savers series is POWER, and it is why we are here today! Want to know more about POWER? Here's the summary:



Add to Goodreads

As the stakes rise, can she find her true power?

As the Amadis prepare for war, Alexis returns to Florida with orders to relax, regenerate and replenish her depleted power. But her task list quickly grows—establish a new safe house, learn the art of conversion, find her AWOL protector, help a desperate fan, and protect her son. Oh, and figure out what’s going on with her husband, whose peculiar behavior just might get them killed.
But most important of all, her primary mission: recover her stolen pendant.

The stone in the pendant not only promises hope for the Amadis future, but its unknown qualities make it a possible weapon in the wrong hands. With guidance and power from an improbable source and an unlikely ally by her side, Alexis sets out to retrieve the stone before the enemy discovers its potential for mass destruction. But when she finds herself in the Daemoni’s lair fighting for her life, all hope seems lost. Will she discover the true power she holds in time? And is it enough to save herself, her family and the Amadis?

Power, the next installment of the Soul Savers Series, takes you on a hot and edgy ride with twists and turns you’ll never see coming, leaving you breathless and once again begging for more.

COVER REVEAL: POWER: SOUL SAVERS book 4 by Kristie Cook

Welcome to the POWER: Soul Savers #4 cover reveal! I can't wait for the book, which is scheduled for release August 24th!  Check out the cover and an excerpt provided by Kristie below!

Excerpt from Chapter 1 of POWER:

I never heard the rest of Tristan's sentence—what he didn’t want me to think. The handsome guy thought I’d nodded to him and had me by the hand, stumbling over his own feet as he dragged me to the dance area. As soon as we stepped onto the sunken floor, his hands were on my hips, pulling me close to him. For a brief moment, I forgot about all the mind signatures, the twirling lights and pounding music and could only think about how strange it was to be that close to a man other than Tristan.
But only for a brief moment. Before I could even do anything, a growl ripped through the music—or maybe just through my head—and Tristan was suddenly between the guy and me, his back to me and his arms out protectively. The drunk guy swung without even looking, and Tristan caught his wrist in mid-air. With the pain of the grip, the guy finally looked up intoTristan’s face. His eyes grew wide and his Adam’s apple bobbed as he gulped. He gave me an apologetic frown as he carefully stepped away from the dance floor.
Tristan turned back to me and wrapped his hands around my waist, pulling me to him as he swayed to the music. I looked up at him with a raised eyebrow.
“You can talk to girls all night but I can’t dance once?”
His nostrils flared. “There’s a difference. His hands were all over you.”
“I had things under control.”
He leaned closer to me and growled in my ear. “I didn’t like it!”

Help Share the Love with Kristie Cook and Tristan

Help Share the <3 with author Kristie Cook and Tristan!

Please welcome Kristie Cook to the blog today! She is going to share some fun and how you can help!

***

Did Tuesday's tease have you wondering what "Share the <3" is? Have you seen the #TristanK3 hashtag on Twitter and buzz on Facebook and wondering what's going on? The scoop is finally here!

Let's take a step back for a minute. You may or may not remember last January when I made a pledge to donate $500 to The National Domestic Violence Hotline if any of my books made it (again) to the Top 100 All Kindle Paid titles list. You more likely do remember that just a couple weeks ago I announced that I was getting close to selling my 100,000th book and I'd be celebrating in some way or another. And if you've read Promise, you surely remember that Tristan wanted to teach a certain wife-beater a lesson.

Well, I'm rolling it all into one for something super-cool that I hope you'll help with. Rather than waiting to hit the Top 100 list again, I'm going to donate that $500 to The Hotline when I've sold my 100,000th book. Sometime this month I'll be clicking that donation button. But I'd love to make it more than $500 and this is where you can help. For every 1,000 books sold past the 100,000 mark, up until July 30, 2012, I'll donate another $100.*

Having direct experience with domestic violence in my family, this cause is near and dear to my heart.I've heard the stories from my grandmother who left an abuser in a day when women did not leave their husbands, regardless of the reason. I've seen the bruises and injuries on loved ones whose hearts fell for the wrong person. Fortunately, most were able to pull themselves out. But not all. In fact, one person close to me died before she could get out.

Not everyone can escape these situations easily. Not everyone knows how to leave with children and lives intact. Not everyone has family or friends close enough to run to. But with The Hotline, they do have a support network. Anything you can do to help would be greatly appreciated, not just by me, but by those whose only hope is this one phone number that could save their lives.
So what can you do? Share the <3! How? Well, you can...

• Buy a book, of course, if you haven't read the Soul Savers Series. Remember, Promise and Genesis are only 99c but these purchases are going to a great cause. (And be sure to keep your receipt - see below for why.)
• Gift any of the Soul Savers books to someone you think would enjoy the series (again, keep your receipt - see below). All the retailers offer an ebook gifting program.
• Encourage friends to buy any of the Soul Savers books between now and July 30, 2012 (again, see below for a bonus if they do).
• Tweet, blog, Facebook and otherwise spread the word about the Soul Savers Series, the Share the <3 campaign and/or The Hotline (use #TristanK3 hashtag - I'll be checking these out and jumping in as often as possible, maybe even with goodies).

To add to the fun, I have presents!Email me** a receipt for any of my books with the purchase date between today and July 30, 2012, and you'll be entered to win weekly giveaways of signed books by me and various author-friends who have so generously donated, as well as to win a grand prize at the end (specific prizes TBD). Gift receipts count!

For everyone who makes a donation to The Hotline for $5 or more and emails me** a receipt and their shipping address, I'll send you a 4-pack of Soul Savers bookmarks. For the first 25, I'll also throw in a Soul Savers can-coozie.

I'd love to see this campaign go viral to help raise awareness and funds to support The Hotline so more women and children can feel safe, something most of us take for granted. Will you please help?

*Up to a total of $2,000. Examples: If, by July 30th, I've sold 105,000 books, I'll donate an extra $500 for a total of $1,000. If I'm at 110,000 books sold, that's another $500 I'll donate, for a total of $1,500. If I'm at 115,000+ books by July 30, I'll donate $2,000!!!

-Book Summary:

With powerful abilities gained from the Ang’dora and Tristan back by her side, Alexis thinks she’s ready for the next challenge— protecting her son from what appears to be the inevitable. But she has so much to learn about her powers, her new world and the people in it. Nothing is what it seems to be on the surface, including the Amadis.

Power-hungry politicians comprise the council and make impossible demands. A traitor lurks among them all, inciting trouble that could destroy the Amadis and, ultimately, humanity. The Daemoni wreak havoc in the human world, with the ultimatum that they’ll continue attacking innocents until Alexis and Tristan are expelled from the Amadis’ protection. The couple’s own society begins to shut them out. But that’s not all.

Someone’s keeping a secret. A big one. Faith and hope in Alexis and Tristan will be restored if she can uncover the truth in time.

But the search for answers leads only to the discovery of more betrayals by those closest to Alexis. Her devotion is put to the test—devotion to her husband, to her family, to her people and to her beliefs—leaving her to question whom she’s fighting for and why she should even bother. But if she won’t fight . . . who will?

I had the opportunity to as Tristan, yes sexy Tristan, one question about the topic of devotion. Here is what I asked and his response.

QUESTION: Is there anything that could/would cause you to betray your closest friends and family?

Tristan: The Amadis comes before everything. I have sacrificed myself, to the detriment of my wife and son, for the greater good of the Amadis. I betrayed Alexis and Dorian’s trust that I will always be there for them, to love and protect them. I have to live with that for the rest of my life. Would I betray them again? I hope I’m never put in that situation again, but if I am, well, God first, then Amadis, then my family. That’s how it is for all of us.

Blog Tour REVIEW: DEVOTION (SOUL SAVERS #3) by Kristie Cook

Title: Devotion (Soul Savers #3)

Author: Kristie Cook

Publisher: Ang'dora Publishing (February 10th, 2012)
Paperback: 374 pages
Format: E-ARC

Source: Author (Thank You!)

With powerful abilities gained from the Ang’dora and Tristan back by her side, Alexis thinks she’s ready for the next challenge—protecting her son from what appears to be the inevitable. But she has so much to learn about her powers, her new world and the people in it. Nothing is what it seems to be on the surface, including the Amadis. Having believed the secret society to be definitively good and righteous, she discovers she couldn’t have been more wrong.

Power-hungry politicians comprise the council and make impossible demands. A traitor lurks among them all, inciting trouble that could destroy the Amadis and, ultimately, humanity. The Daemoni wreak havoc in the human world, with the ultimatum that they’ll continue attacking innocents until Alexis and Tristan are expelled from the Amadis’ protection. The couple’s own society begins to shut them out. But that’s not all.

There’s a secret. A big one. And faith and hope in Alexis and Tristan will be restored if she can uncover the truth in time.

But the search for answers leads only to the discovery of more betrayals by those closest to Alexis. Her devotion is put to the test—devotion to her husband, to her family, to her people and to her beliefs—leaving her to question whom she’s fighting for and why she should even bother. But if she won’t fight … who will?

Review:

Nothing and no one is safe from corruption and discord, not even the Angel’s Council or the perfect couple.  Alexis finally gets to see the Amadis Council in action and the harsh truth that nothing is sacred or as it seems takes a devastating toll in the most fast-paced, action-packed Soul Savers novel yet!

I absolutely loved Devotion. The Soul Savers novels just keep getting better and I never wanted to put this one down. The stakes are higher, the conflict is greater, and every single relationship, be it friendship, romantic, or business, is at risk of unraveling. Tristan and Alexis’s relationship is tested to its limits and the devotion and strength shown by both is amazing. And little Dorian is coming into his own as well. We finally get a glimpse at the dynamics among the Amadis within the council, towns and colonies, and even a coven and a werewolf pack! While people and groups fall apart and fight one another, tons of fabulous new characters, big and small, are introduced. Some mysteries are solved while others are revealed, maybe the biggest secret of all, and the devotion of everyone is tested to the max.

Is there a breaking point even for the angelic Amadis? Find out in the best Soul Savers novel yet, Devotion.

REVIEW: GENESIS (A SOUL SAVERS NOVELLA) by Kristie Cook

Synopsis (from Goodreads):

A father who reveals his truth.
Twins who take different paths—one light, one dark.
Angels who have plans for them both
And Demons who do as well.
So the Earthly battle for souls ignites…

A tale that is over 2,000 years old, this is the story of the Amadis beginnings.

Review:
I now know what started it all! This makes me happy, very happy! GENESIS is the story of how THE Amadis came to be and what started the epic battle between Good and Evil that Alexis and Tristan are fighting in PROMISE, PURPOSE and DEVOTION. I really enjoy prequel type stories that reveal how things got started or shed light on events that are mentioned in a series. In this case, GENESIS goes all the way back to the very first Amadis, Cassandra. And I really love how Alexis parallels so well with her! You can actually SEE Alexis in Cassandra, and how/why she turned out the way she did. I really loved seeing that connection. We also gain a lot of insight into why things are the way they are in the SOUL SAVER series and even have some of the questions that are left open in PROMISE and PURPOSE answered. GENESIS can be read at any time during the series, but I read it right after I finished PURPOSE and I thought that was the best fit. It answered some of the questions I had right after PURPOSE and I found out I didn't really want the answers before reading it. I think GENESIS fits perfectly right after PURPOSE. But that's my opinion, you can take it or leave it. :)

REVIEW: PURPOSE (SOUL SAVERS #2) by Kristie Cook

Synopsis (from Goodreads):

Lost in despair, Alexis teeters on the edge of an abyss, her lifeline of hope fraying into a thin thread. If it snaps, she'll plunge into complete darkness. With the help of her son and her writing, she's been able to hold on. Until now. Erratic impulses, disturbing delusions and her own demonic blood threaten her sanity. When she's forced to choose between hanging onto hope or letting go to serve her Amadis purposes, she faces a decision with inconceivable sacrifices.

Alexis runs to the one place she thinks will provide answers, only to find herself at the center of another battle of good versus evil, not only with the Daemoni, not only within herself; but also against the worst opponent imaginable. But even if she wins, what will she lose?

Review:
First, I would like to thank Kristie for providing the e-book copy of PURPOSE for this honest review. I really enjoyed PROMISE, but PURPOSE blew me away. The writing is more developed and eloquent and I can see the author's development within the story.

As PURPOSE begins, 7 years have passed since the end of PROMISE, and the whole tone of the book is different. It's darker. Alexis is still depressed, which if you ask me is totally to be expected. To me, this made her more human. She has always wanted to be more "normal" and, in a way, her depression and reaction to the events at the end of PROMISE do that. It's a real struggle to heal from that kind of loss, especially when you don't know what actually happened. Not to mention, the kind of connection that exists between Tristan and Alexis is, well, intense and far deeper than anything imaginable to me. But Kristie has developed and explored this connection so well that I can imagine what that connect, and subsequent loss, could feel like and fully believe Alexis's reaction. And I'm much more impressed with Alexis! Although she struggles desperately with the depression and feels like she's losing herself, she's able to dig deep and find who she calls "Almost Alexis" for her son, which I find a strength in and of itself. While she is falling apart and wants to lose herself she fights. But not only for Dorian, but for Tristan as well. Which is what is at her core, Alexis is a fighter for those she loves most, THE PROTECTOR as Tristan has called her. I think Kristie did an amazing job showing Alexis's feelings. Her pain is so raw and real that, as the reader, you can feel it. I wanted to cry and scream with her.

What I like most about PURPOSE though, is that a lot of the questions from book 1 are answered. Yippee! My biggest question from PROMISE, although it probably was semi irrelevant to most, was who attacked her and who protected her at the very beginning. And we learn the answer! Also, Alexis's history, painful truths, choices between good and evil, and Alexis's purpose are revealed.

PURPOSE is my favorite in the SOUL SAVERS series so far. I look forward to the events to come in DEVOTION, and more of Alexis and Tristan's story.

REVIEW: Promise (Soul Savers #1) by Kristie Cook

Synopsis (from Goodreads):
Alexis Ames has a life full of promise…but not all promises can be kept.
When Alexis Ames is attacked by creatures that can’t be real, she decides it’s time she learns who she really is, with or without the help of her mother, who guards their family’s secrets closely. After meeting the inhumanly attractive, multi-talented Tristan Knight, however, Alexis retreats behind her façade of normalcy…until she discovers he’s not exactly normal either. Then their secrets begin to unravel.

Their union brings hope and promise to her family’s secret society, the Angels’ army, and to the future of mankind. But it also incites a dangerous pursuit by the enemy – Satan’s minions and Tristan’s creators. After all, Alexis and Tristan are a match made in Heaven and in Hell.

Review:

Ok, I have to be honest, when I first started the book I actually had my doubts. The first chapter confused me a little, and I'm a control freak and hate to not have a grasp of things. (I know, I need to let it go already). I actually feel this way about a lot of books when I start them, so I kept going and before I knew it, WHAM! I started to love it! Once I started to get into Alexis's and Sophia's life, I became intrigued, much like Alexis is herself. I wanted to know more about these "quirks" of theirs and more about Alexis herself. At the beginning, I was a little worried Alexis was going to be bit of damsel in distress. I really like strong female characters, so I was going to be really disappointed if she was all, "Oh, save me dashing knight!" (insert swoon here). However, she didn't let me down. Alexis is a writer (hello! Love her already!), and while she has her insecurities rooted deeply in the events of her past, she has an inner strength that later reveals itself physically as well, although I don't think she realizes yet how strong she really is. She continues to stand up for herself more and more, especially when the "dashing Knight" I mentioned earlier comes into the picture. No really, he's a Knight. Tristan Knight to be exact. And he is YU-MMY! As Alexis and Tristan begin to build a relationship, family secrets are revealed, ancient enemies surface, and of course, an epic romance develops. I HATE giving away plot points, so I won't tell what happens, but there is this ONE scene. Yes, ONE OF THOSE scenes. Lets just say its panty-poppin', drawer droppin', skin sizzlin', toe tinglin', OMG-my-husband-is-out-of-town-so-I-need-a-cold-shower scene.  Yeah, its gooooood!

To sum it up, Promise is a riveting love story blossoming amid an epic battle of good and evil that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the last page. AND leave you itching for Purpose, the next book in the series, like a caffeine junkie eager for her next fix.

The Daemoni wreak havoc in the human world, with the ultimatum that they’ll continue attacking innocents until Alexis and Tristan are expelled from the Amadis’ protection. The couple’s own society begins to shut them out. But that’s not all.

There’s a secret. A big one. And faith and hope in Alexis and Tristan will be restored if she can uncover the truth in time.

But the search for answers leads only to the discovery of more betrayals by those closest to Alexis. Her devotion is put to the test—devotion to her husband, to her family, to her people and to her beliefs—leaving her to question whom she’s fighting for and why she should even bother. But if she won’t fight … who will?
