Excerpt


Declán seemed to be losing patience though. He only knew that, from his point of view, Simon had attacked me but that now everyone was upset and looking at him and me with pity and pain. “What am I not getting here? He bit you, without permission! But now you’re worried about him and Louie and Nicholas look on the verge of puking or taking you and running. Argh!” He was raging, poor thing. But I didn’t think I could actually explain any of it to him. Not without losing what progress Simon had inadvertently granted me.
Peony was the one to take pity on Declán. “Dec, please calm down. Simon did do what you said, but what you don’t understand is he was trying to help her. He merged with her mind and saw firsthand the torture that was paralysing her mind. His ability in this area is more developed than any of ours. He can forcefully pull the desired event and feelings without her intent or effort. But look. She’s still letting Louie hold her. When she fist returned she wouldn’t let anyone touch her.”
“His mind’s in more danger right now than mine, honestly,” I interrupted. “He lived as a traditional vampire from the moment of his transformation until he joined us but he was never cruel; never took pleasure in torture and pain with his meals.” I stumbled over the last word but was determined not to let my feelings on such taint my explanation. As I continued to speak I pulled Simon to me. I knew exactly what he’d just gone through, though I didn’t know how deep the connection was – did he watch or did he feel too? “What he just witnessed and to an extent felt was . . .” I couldn’t find the words to explain such sick, vile, wickedness.
Simon collapsed in my lap, his head on my knee. He managed to articulate one thought before losing himself to the sobs breaking through his control. “The mutilation of your soul.”

Go to Hell with Gracen Miller!



Have you ever wanted to be a part of a group where everyone is welcome and fits in? Well, you can! I have an awesome group of fans/readers that call themselves my Hellhounds!

Are you familiar with the supernatural creature? Hellhounds are commonly thought of as paranormal dogs that have vigor and speed. Maybe they have red or yellow glowing eyes and stink like the Hell they leapt from. In some literature and movies, the mystical canines are invisible, and are either the cause of a person’s death or an omen of death.

Some legends believe they’re friendly creatures, while others consider them omens of death. Cerberus from Greek Mythology is a well-known Hellhound, which is a multi-headed dog that guards the Underworld. Not an omen of death, but still deals with death.

There are a bunch of myths on the internet about Hellhounds, so if you’re interested in learning more, visit:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellhound.

When I created my Road to Hell series Facebook fan page, I got tired of calling all the new likers “members”. It felt like they needed to have a name, something fun, but something they approved of. I held a vote asking the members of the page to suggest names they wanted to be called.  “Hellhounds” won the vote. My Hellhounds aren’t as ominous as the various mythical creatures, and they’re not omens of death. The Road to Hell series Hellhounds are better described in a bunch of different ways. Some are chatty, funny, and sweet. Others are naughty, wicked, but supportive and always eager to help promote. Or they’re a combination of all the traits. They’re just regular folks—like you and me!—but they are the most awesome group of fans/friends a gal could have. I am proud to have all of their support and friendship. I’ve enjoyed getting to know all of them and I’m always eager to meet more.

I invite YOU to join us on the Road to Hell and become an official Hellhound!  If you dare to enter the road to hell, becoming a Hellhound is a rigorous process. Not many folks make it…are you ready to hear what you must do? You must show your nimbleness by clicking the “like” button on my Road to Hell series Facebook fan page at: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Road-to-Hell-series/112564408814796

That’s all it takes to become a Hellhound! Not rigorous at all, but easy-peasy! And no one is ever turned away.

Huggles,
Gracen


Where you can stalk me—not really!—but I would love to meet and interact with you:



Pandora’s Box Blurb:

Where does the road to Hell begin?

What happens when your son turns homicidal overnight and your husband disappears on his way to work? Do you cower in fear or fight for your life? Madison Wescott fights against the odds. Distrustful of a God she doesn't believe in, she finds herself face-to-face with a world she didn't know existed and discovers her own soul is darkened with demonic connections.

With good intentions? Or by demonic design?

Phoenix Birmingham bursts into Madison’s life in a whirlwind of sarcasm and sexual appeal. A hero for the masses—and for her jaded heart—but few will ever know the sacrifices he has made or the sacrifices to come. Discovering her entire life has been influenced by multifaceted paranormal beings, Madison is determined to defeat the apocalyptic blueprint fate has decreed, but only one man dares to challenge the supernatural forces manipulating them. Even with Phoenix's aid, can destiny be denied? Or will demonic design prevail while they pay the crucial price with their souls?

In a small, sleepy Alabama town the battle for mankind's liberty has begun...

Hell’s Phoenix Blurb:

Hell’s become more than just a playground for the wicked…

Going to Hell was supposed to save Madison, but knowing she’s dead because of his failure leaves Nix with only one thing to live for. Revenge. With Micah’s help he learns to use his Messianic power. Anything for Mads has become his mantra, even if it means killing innocents to gather the power he needs to succeed. A tsunami he unleashes on a Gulf Coast city is stopped with magical interference, and Nix is more than surprised to feel Madison in the opposing magic. Can he and Micah set a trap to lure her out?

Pandora’s Box…once you open it, there’s no turning back!

Madison has done the unthinkable, opened Pandora’s Box to save Nix from Hell. And failed. She’s willing to risk her own life to rescue Nix, but she worries about the welfare of her accomplice in the mission and leaving her son behind. Following up on a lead, she’s ambushed by Nix and Micah. Shocked and hurt to discover Nix has become a willing participant of Hell, she’s more certain than ever she won’t escape the demonic fate her husband outlined for her. While in Hell, she discovers denying the emergence of her succubus is futile, which means getting Nix out of Hell after embracing her inner demon just became a very real dilemma…


PANDORA’S BOX is available now at the following sites:

Heart Ache by: Morgan Kearns

Want a great HOT read?
Here's my review for Heart Ache by Morgan Kearns.
Niko is most definitely swoon worthy!

Synopsis: Gabrielle Ryan felt an electric attraction to her new employer the first time he reached out and shook her hand. Three years later, she dreams of him and can sense his presence when she’s awake. Not that it does her any good. It seems all Nikolai wants is an assistant—and to Gabby’s chagrin, it’s not to assist him with taking off his pants!

For the last four hundred years Nikolai Voinea has searched for the one female capable of easing the empty ache in his chest. All it took was a single touch to bring life back to his heart. Stubborn and determined not to make the same mistakes as his father, Nikolai keeps his feelings for Gabrielle under wraps—except for the occasional appearance in her dreams.

Completely oblivious to Niko's feelings for her, Gabby agrees to marry a man who loves her unconditionally. But a male never gives up his heartmate. Ever. When murder charges make Gabby second guess everything she knows about Nikolai, she’s hurt and angry and determined to walk away. But Nikolai’s just as determined to do everything within his power to keep her.

Review: This is the first of Morgan Kearns' books that I have read. I absolutely adored it! Morgan included excellent detail in the story. She mixed loyalty, deceit, love, hate, and passion into the story with the different characters. No two characters are alike there is NO mistaking one for another. Morgan's story has an excellent plot as well as wonderful "steamy" scenes. The plot isn't totally predictable and it keeps you guessing throughout the storyline.

Review: I read Pandora's Box right after it came out and I have been one of Gracen's LOYAL Hellhounds ever since. Gracen is an amazing person as well as a marvelous writer. I absolutely loved everything about Pandora's Box but I have to admit I am ALL about Hell's Pheonix! I have found that with most series that I have read the first book is usually the best and they all go downhill from there. NOT with this series! Gracen made the second book BETTER by FAR! It kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading it...even chewed my fingernails off (I don't usually CHEW my fingernails)! Gracen mixes just enough "steamy" in this action packed ADULT book. I would absolutely recommend this book to ALL of my friends (and even some random people in the book store)!



Make sure you come by on Febuary 20th for a secial post from Gracen Miller!
