    Know the Heroine from Bear of the Midnight Sun

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your heroine.
    It’s late, she’s bored. What does she do?
    Miranda prefers a quiet kind of life, so she picks up a book and reads. Or takes a nap. Naps are good.
    What kind of food would she impulse buy if hungry?
    Ice cream. Who doesn’t like ice cream?
    Describe the kind of clothes she prefers to wear.
    Comfortable, tailored clothing, like jeans and a button-down shirt or soft sweater.
    Does she know how to fix things?
    Miranda’s mother prizes independence above all things, and insisted she learn how to perform basic household repairs. As a woman living alone, she sees the sense in having that kind of practical knowledge. She mows her own yard, too, although gardening doesn’t float her boat.
    She tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.
    Miranda would love to be a gourmet cook, but hasn’t got the knack. For a small dinner party, she once attempted a soufflĆ© from a venerable French recipe. She followed the instructions to the letter, but it somehow managed explode. SoufflĆ©s collapse, but they don’t explode. Except hers did. She ordered pizza delivery instead, and, after the party, spent three hours cleaning out the burned splatter from her oven. She vowed never to attempt anything like that again.
    How does she act around children she doesn’t know?
    Miranda is uncomfortable about children, having never really interacted with them since she was a child herself. In fear of saying the wrong thing, she holds herself aloof to observe them.
    What is she like first thing in the morning?
    Miranda’s ambivalent about mornings, although her cat Gonzo ensures she rises at the proper hour to ensure he receives his breakfast. She prefers to take her mornings with a cup or two of her favorite caffeinated beverage.
    How does she act around people who don’t know what she is?
    Like many authors, Miranda’s an introvert and reserved. Definitely not the life of the party, she’ll join the other wallflowers to watch and listen to the other guests.
    Will she let a worker handle things or do it herself?
    Having grown up the daughter of a fiercely independent mother, Miranda learned to handle her own problems. In Bear of the Midnight Sun, she learns that she can’t necessarily handle her own problems and that needing help doesn’t necessarily imply weakness.
    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?
    She has no tattoos or body piercings, although she does have pierced ears and prefers more delicate earrings that enhance rather than make a bold statement. With her mother, a lawyer who chews razor wire for breakfast, Miranda’s tastes toward bodily embellishment tend to be conservative.
    Personal vehicle or public transport?
    Personal vehicle, definitely. In small town and rural America, public transport often doesn’t exist. A privately owned car or truck is necessary.
    Recycle or toss?
    Miranda will recycle, as long as it’s not too inconvenient or costly. Having had an irregular income for most of her adult life, she measures cost against environmental responsibility carefully before making a purchase. Convenience is definitely a factor in her decisions to recycle, repurpose, or reuse.
    Thanks for helping us get to know your heroine!

    People are never what they seem.
    Scai thought she was safe in her little Welsh village–until the people turned on her, threatening to burn her as a witch.
    Scai thought that knights in shining armor were handsome young men–until an old man with funny ideas rescued her.

    Lies and Solace by Jana RichardsLies and Solace by Jana Richards #FreeBookFriday #Read

    Harper Lindquist is convinced she’s found the answer to her financial prayers. Unless she pours cash into crumbling Solace Lake Lodge, she’ll lose her family’s legacy. Her would-be savior arrives in the middle of a Minnesota blizzard and she’s determined to prove to her reluctant, and trapped, financier the lodge is a sound investment. But Harper isn’t completely honest with him. And she has no idea the lake is hiding secrets of its own.
    Ethan James is a liar, but his money is very real. He isn’t convinced a broken-down inn is a smart investment opportunity. But the more he understands Harper’s dreams and desires, the more he wants to be the man to make them come true. The trauma in both their pasts means neither can fully trust the other. They must find the courage to love, to trust, and to accept, or yesterday’s sorrows will keep them apart.
    She can’t handle one more lie. He can’t tell the truth.

    Hunters’ Academy 1: Entrance Exam by Ivy Hearne

    Survive or Die.

    It’s not much of a school mottoā€”not as inspiring as, say, “Let us give light to the world,” or “Knowledge is liberty,” or even just “Light and Truth.” Those are all real school mottoes. So is this one. It belongs to the Hunters’ Academy. And now, so do I.
    Since she was twelve years old, Kacela Deluca has suffered debilitating migraines. On the eve of her sixteenth birthday, she learns her headaches are the result of untapped psychic abilities. She’s given a choice: continue to suffer, or leave behind everything she knows and join the Huntersā€™ Academy. The only catch? If she doesnā€™t pass the entrance exam, sheā€™ll die.
    A teen with blocked psychic powers, a panther shifter who can’tā€”or won’tā€”shift, a secret academy, and the power to defend the entire world…if only Kacela can unleash her potential before it’s too late.
    Fans of Vampire Academy, Mortal Instruments, Harry Potter, and Dragon School will love Huntersā€™ Academy!

    Shattered by Bry AnnRead Shattered by Bry Ann #FreeBookFriday #Read

    Sometimes, when I really think about it, I can almost feel the way the breeze felt against my skin that day. How it washed over me, cooling my heated skin.
    I remember counting the minutes it took to get to my boyfriend’s house. Twenty-two, but it took twenty-three that day. Maybe the extra minute was a warning.
    One I didn’t heed, of course.
    I wanted love. It’s all I wanted. I would have done anything for it.
    It made me an easy victim.
    Tell me I’m pretty here, hug me there and I was a puppet on his string. He pulled and pulled until he asked me to do the one thing I absolutely could not do.
    It broke me to tell him no. Tore me up. I went over to his house that day to try and find a way to make it up to him. To fix what I broke.
    Minute nineteen.
    Cool breeze. Sunshine. Hope for love, fear I ruined my chance at it by being disobedient.
    Minute twenty.
    Black. One minute was all it took for Sage Briar-Rose to cease to exist.
    To shatter her.
    This is the story of how I lost myself. The story of how my naive search for love left me shattered.
    Trigger Warning: This book deals with extremely sensitive topics. If you get triggered easily, I’d chose one of my other books.
