Okay. Wow!

Okay. Wow!
Starbound is sitting pretty at #3 on Amazon's Hot New Releases!
Excuse me while I take a moment...*screams like a banshee*


 Seriously, I can't thank my readers enough for picking up one of my books. I don't know how else to say it.


It is a huge accomplishment to the girl who didn't think a single person would read or let alone enjoy a book she wrote.

And I would never have gotten the courage to write another if it wasn't for the amazing support that I got from you guys. Being an indie author my journey has had its ups and downs, but I have learned a lot from you guys. And I thank you for it!


Sometimes, when I get really excited, I run through the house screaming. This might have been one of those times.

Starbound - EARLY RELEASE!

Eeeppp!



I have decided to do an early release for STARBOUND. *happy dance* The book is done and ready to go, so I thought, heck, why not. The perks of being an idie-author. Love it! So Starbound will be now be releasing tomorrow, Tuesday, March 11th!!






It will be available on Amazon and B&N for $2.99 and in paperback. Links will be posted tomorrow when it goes on sale.

Description:



Everyone, in some way, has been touched by magick. If you have the blood of a spider goddess flowing in your veins, it is a double whammy…and kind of creepy. 

Katia Montgomery’s life is charmed. She is pretty, popular, and dating the star basketball player. So then why is she miserable? There is so much more to Katia than endless parties, expensive clothes, and her social status—she is a nixie. Her world feels inadequate, lonely, and she can’t shake the feeling that something or someone is missing. And that might just explain why she is suddenly crushing on the mouthwatering and forbidden Seth Nightingale.

Seth has always known that the sassy and spunky Katia is destined to be his—that they are starbound. While she goes through boyfriends like bubble gum, chewing them up and spitting them out, he stands in the shadows, unable to do anything about it, knowing he shouldn’t care. Not a damn thing in his power can change their fates, and that…well, really blows, but it doesn’t stop him from dreaming about her, craving her, loving her. 

A dark curse hangs over their heads, one cast centuries before. Now it is up to Seth to be stronger than ever and resist the one girl he can never have…or risk killing them both. But the attraction between them is something neither can ignore.

And the curse, it’s out for blood—their blood.

Moondust release date!


Moondust, the conclusion to the Luminescence Trilogy will be released on May 2, 2014!! And I can't wait to share it, however I will be a little sad to see the series come to end. Don't forget to add it to your Goodreads list.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17268779-moondust


Description:



The golden witch or the dark witch? Those were my choices. Both exceptionally heart-stopping.

One was like the brightest stream of sunshine. A close friend. He knows all my secrets, all my worries, all my dreams, considering he used to be a part of them. Now that he is real, things haven’t been the same, and I can’t help shake the feeling the something was brewing under the surface.
The other I love with my last dying breath. He is not only dark and dangerous looking, the magic he wields is deadly. Lethal. Destructive. A magical assassin, if there is such a thing. It was a fine line to walk, and could easily tumble down the wrong path. But he holds my heart and my happiness, even after I almost accidentally killed him. My magic is eerily and freakishly unpredictable.

I’m a clàr silte. Whatever that meant.

The way I saw it, there were only two paths for my future: I was going to be killed, or I was going to be used as a weapon. Neither of those choices sounded appealing. My future looked bleak and troublesome.

In the end, I would have to make the toughest decision. There was evil working among us.

Or maybe the evil was me.

25 Random Things About Moi (just in case you were wondering)

I've done a post like this before, but I think they are so fun, so I decided to do an up-to-date one.


1. My current fiction boyfriend is...wait for it...Chase Winters. (I can't help myself. I just love him.)

2. I have 2 tattoos. A double infinity on the inside of my left wrist (Yes, like Revenge. What can I say? I'm a dork) And a tramp stamp on my lower back. (This just emphasizes my said dorkiness)

3. I've been married for 13 years, and I have two boys who are 16 and 12. Say what? Yep, I have a 16 year old. Still blows my mind.

4. My favorite color is blue.

5. I have a thing for eyes. When I write a book, I constantly want to write about their eyes. Sometimes I over do it.

6. I love pierces. Other than my ears, I have 1 body piercing. My belly button. I did have my nose pierced a few years ago, but it didn't last.

7. Secretly, I want to dye my hair pink.

8. My celebrity crush is Jensen Ackles (No surprise as he is plastered all over my blog - its embarrassing)

9. I like twitter more than Facebook

10. My full name is Jennifer Lee Weil

11. Right this minute, my favorite song is Katy Perry's Dark Horse. And I make a fool of myself daily by belting the lyrics way off key.

12. I have the WORST diet ever. For breakfast I eat cookies, cakes, anything sweet and chocolately with a cup of coffee. Everyday.

13. I am obsessed with almost every show on the CW (Star-crossed is my new favorite. Holy hot aliens. Roman = yum-o-tastic)

14. Coke-cola is my favorite drink, especially with lime slices.

15. My first crush was Jordan Knight from NKOTB. I swear I was in love.

16. I go through candles like it is nobodies business. My favorite candle is Beachwalk by Yankee Candle. I also really like Bath & Body Works candles as well.

17. I have a cat. Her name is Snickers, but we call her Kiki. No clue why.

18. My favorite type of food is Chinese. (Now I am starving)

19. I always make weird faces when having my picture taken.

20. Bath Bombs from Lush are my recent favorite find. I am a bubble bath kind of girl (I get all my really good ideas while I am soaking in scented suds.)

21. Lately I have been listening to a whole ton of Dubstep. But I really like all genres of music.

22. I get very excited about food.

23. The last few chapters of a book are the hardest for me to write. I procrastinate like a mofo.

24. I dance and sing in the car. My kids hate it, which then makes me laugh.

25. I wear glasses, because I am blind as a bat.
