Release Blitz ~ When a Moth Loved a Bee by Pepper Winters

 

When a Moth Loved a Bee by Pepper Winters is now live!

 

New York Times Bestseller, Pepper Winters, delivers a brand new High Fantasy Romance.

“It’s taking everything I have not to touch you. Not because I want to make you mine but because every part of me screams that you already are.”

A pack of wolves hunt a girl who takes her last breath by a river’s edge.

She is found and nursed back to health by the kind-hearted Nhil people.

She has no memory.

No past.

And is given a choice that could change her forgotten life forever.

A pack of wolves adopt a man who begs for death in the grasslands.

Blood revives him. Flesh strengthens him. All while the alpha watches him as if he knows who he is.

He has no memory.

No past.

And yet…he’s drawn toward the smoke of a faraway clan.

And in that smoke, he finds a girl with the same mark on her thigh, the same empty mind, and the same forgotten language on her lips.

He’s convinced they know each other.

She’s certain they are strangers.

But the more time they spend together, the more tangled the truth becomes.

Their forgetfulness was deliberate.

To keep them apart.

To keep them lost.

To keep them from claiming their true power.

Because in that power exists a terrible choice.

A choice that could destroy the world…

…or each other.

When a Moth Loved a Bee is the first volume in the Epic Fantasy Romance Destini Chronicles.

A heavily romantic, spice-filled fantasy set in a world where life and death, shadows and stars watch over two forbidden lovers whose powers are best left forgotten.

Cover Reveal ~ We Will Reign by Rachel Leigh

Rachel Leigh has revealed the covers for We Will Reign!

 

Releasing March 10, 2023

Enrolling at BCU was supposed to be my chance at freedom. 
An escape from my parents who insist I follow in their footsteps as a Guardian of the Society. 
Keep the members safe—that’s what I’m supposed to do.
But how can I safeguard the students when I can’t even protect myself?
Someone has been watching me.
His eyes burn into my soul like a branding iron. At night, he haunts my dreams and transforms them into nightmares.
And sometimes when I wake, he’s there.
Standing at the foot of my bed in awe of my existence.

He isn’t the one I fear most, though.
His best friends—Maddox and Lev— have their eyes on me, too.
Only their obsession runs deeper than Ridge’s and I fear if I fall under their thumbs, I won’t make it out of here alive. 

There once was a sicko who lurked in the mist.
He preyed on my soul baring a closed iron fist.
His stare made me itch while his eyes locked me under his spell.
But taking his hand may be my only escape from this hell.

Excerpt

Before long, September had rolled around, and the new school session had begun. Dad kept his

word and let me stay with Aunt Tammy during the school week. On the weekends, just like 

before, Friday through Monday morning, I was at his house.

      Although I’d ignored Dad’s concerns about my aunt, it didn’t occur to me that the ones 

dovetailing with the hate he had for my mother would soon make me regret that I had made a 

different decision. It didn’t take long for my aunt’s personality, which soon mimicked that of my

mother, to rear its ugly head. The only difference was the heightened emotions, and verbal 

abuse Aunt Tammy heaped on me; began to take a toll.

      I could never do anything right. I didn’t eat the proper food. I was gaining too much weight. 

Chores Aunt Tammy assigned me, and she’d follow me, catching a speck of dust on the wood 

trim or an oil streak in the saucepan that I missed.

      Her demands messed with my emotions. The constant stomach pain I endured lasted for 

days at a time.

      The hope of being asked to the upcoming dance numbed the feeling of my twisted gut.  

Every girl wanted to be asked out by one of the athletes, no matter their status. Me, I can’t lie 

and say that I didn’t wish guys drooled over me the way they did all the “fun” girls.  My ordeal 

left me with a constant craving for escape.
