5 Things To Know About...

Happy Wednesday All,

As the time draws closer, I'm working on the edits from my publisher and getting ready for the big day...

RELEASE DAY for Perfect Love.

In preparation for the June 2017 release, here are 5 things you should know about Perfect Love:

1. It takes place years after the events at the end of Immortal Love.

2.  Hailey and Arion are the main point-of-view characters.

3.  Laney and Jason make cameos.

4.  There is a special surprise at the end of the story. (No, I'm not dropping any hints).

5.  I don't know whether or not it's the last book in the Immortal Dreams series. I haven't decided, yet. So, I've left myself an opening in case I continue the series. I'll let you, the reader, see if you can figure out the opening...you probably will...a lot of readers figured out Hailey's story was next. I'm sure you readers figure out the room I left myself in this one. (And no, this isn't the surprise, the surprise is something else).

So, the question you have to ask yourself now is...

Are you ready for Perfect?

June will be here soon!

Have A Wonderfully Whimsical Wednesday!

Secrets REVEALED: Book Two ASTRAL LOVE Teasers!

Happy Monday Everybody,

Last week was all about settling back in after having been in Louisville, Kentucky for a week--and trying to work on edits in spite of allergies/cold, etc. (AKA real life).

I'm almost halfway through the read-through portion of publisher's first round edits for Astral Love. I'm hoping to send them back to publisher by sometime on Wednesday, Sept. 24, 2014 (if not before).

Meanwhile, I thought I'd share some teasers of Book Two for your reading pleasure/anticipation 

***NOTE:  IF YOU DO NOT WANT ANYTHING TO "SPOIL" BOOK TWO FOR YOU, DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER***:

Divine Love gave you a pretty intimate look at Laney Alberts--what's important to her and who she is. She's going to continue to evolve and grow, but Astral Love will give you a closer look at Jason Magnus.

You'll finally learn the details of the circumstances as to why Aphrodite hates Jason. Yep...all the details.

You'll find out more about Astras (not that you couldn't figure that

out from the title, but still, you will).

Love means forgiveness--and there's different types of love.

With annoying villains, the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree...although sometimes the apple is MORE annoying.

Never, ever drink any of Dionysus's wine.

Are you ready for the continuation of Laney and Jason's adventures? I know I am!


Hope you have a magically merry Monday!

Cover Reveal! IMMORTAL DREAMS Book Two: ASTRAL LOVE!

Hello Darling Readers,

This is actually for Monday, but because I'm writing, and doing a bunch of other things, I wanted to make sure I got it up in plenty of time.

Hope everybody had a great weekend! I was sick on Saturday, but got better on Sunday, so that was good. I'm working on Book Three of the Immortal Dreams Trilogy, but I figured everybody would want a little peek at what's to come (especially for anyone who has already read Immortal Dreams Book One, Divine Love).

So here we are, the cover art for Immortal Dreams Book Two, Astral Love! I love it, don't you?

Book Two is due to release Fall of 2014 (yes, this year!)

Here's wishing you a great work week/new school year!

Have A Marvelously Magical Monday!

Bite That Beast!

Happy Tuesday Everyone,

Monday was a wet day in Texas. Very wet. But I'm happy to report that my end of town did all right (from what I could tell). Unfortunately, there were people who had to evacuate their homes in another town, and there was flooding in different areas. Hopefully those people's cars and homes don't sustain a lot of damage. For those of you who pray, please offer up a prayer for them.

I did remember to take a picture of my lion (Monroe, hero of my novel) ornament I've mentioned, but because I've lost the hook up wire for my camera, I'll have to go take it in and get it put on a disc so I can upload the photos (yes, I took more than one LOL).

So, I've finished reading all the books I got for Christmas. The one I haven't reported on is Tera Lynn Childs, Sweet Venom (YA Paranormal).

It's the story of 3 girls who look exactly alike. At first they don't know about each other.

Gretchen grew up with adoptive parents who weren't ideal. She ran away and eventually was taken in by Ursala, who taught her how to fight monsters and send them back to where they came from. Ursala also taught her that Gretchen was descent of the gorgon, Medusa, who, was falsely portrayed in mythology.

Unexpectedly, Gretchen comes across her sister--make that twin sister--while she's out fighting monsters.

Grace had no idea she had a sister. Let alone she was a descendant of Medusa. She'd always known she was adopted, but her parents were loving and kind. So she had no reason to look beyond her small bubble for anymore family.

When Grace meets Gretchen and finds out the truth, she's not sure what to think. But even though she tries to walk away, she finds she just can't.


Then enters Greer. Having been raised in wealth and privilege, Greer doesn't have time on her social calendar for insane people who, even though they look like her, can't possibly be her sisters. And, she can't be a descendant of Medusa, right?

But with monsters popping up all over the place and the rules changing, these triplets find out they need each other and they need to uncover the truth as to what's happened and where Ursala has gone.

Will the girls be able to uncover the truth about their destinies, or will the bounty on their heads prove the end of them and Medusa's legacy?

You can indulge in Greek Mythology, mystery, action, suspense, and a little bit of romance on the side in this incredible beginning to a brand new series by Tera Lynn Childs.

Find Sweet Venom at:  Amazon and Amazon Kindle, also find it on Barnes & Noble and on Barnes & Noble Nook.

Have A Thrilling Tuesday!

We Interrupt This Blog Feed For Special Announcements...

Happy Thursday Folks,

Two announcements:

1.  Tomorrow, Nov. 11, I will be posting the author interview. Yep, you read that right...it's FINALLY going to be posted :-)

2.  Also, tomorrow, author Josephine Angelini, the author of the amazing and awesome YA Paranormal novel, Starcrossed is having an ARC give away of her sequel, Dreamless. Dreamless isn't supposed to come out until 2012, in MAY if I'm not mistaken. This is quite an opportunity (yours truly is totally ecstatic about this...desperately wants ARC of Dreamless so she can read it and review it on her blog, but that shouldn't stop you from throwing your hat in the ring).  (If I was feeling totally better I'd be jumping up and down...as it is, I'm doing that mentally).

By the way...how did I find out about Josephine's give away? I was on Twitter. You can either follow me on Twitter @WriteByBethany (Bethany Averie) or you can check out my Twitter Feed in the margin of this blog.

Other than that...just plugging away at the things I have going on.

Do you have any announcements? Fun things? Give aways? Let me know in the comment section :-)

Have A Thrilling Thursday!
