<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In the spirit of my upcoming release, <i>Electric Skies</i>, I wanted to do a fun post about the different elements and their meanings astrologically. Take a look at your own sign's element and see if it matches your personality. </span></span><br />

<h3 style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.011em !important; line-height: 1.3; margin-bottom: 8px !important; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">Fire Signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius</span></h3>
<div style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.21449999511241913px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Fire can keep you warm, or it can be explosive. These people tend to be energetic, passionate, and vibrant. Just like Phoenix, these signs can burn out quickly, but rise again from their own ashes. Nurture them, kindle their flames, and they will shine through the darkest of nights.</span></div>
<h3 style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.011em !important; line-height: 1.3; margin-bottom: 8px !important; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">The Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn</span></h3>
<div style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.21449999511241913px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Earth is the foundation for everything. Loyal, kind, and practical, Earth signs are naturally grounded people. They win the race by going slow and steady, the "builders" of the zodiac. And of course, the most connected with Mother Nature.</span></div>
<h3 style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.011em !important; line-height: 1.3; margin-bottom: 8px !important; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">The Air Signs: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius</span></h3>
<div style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.21449999511241913px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Air signs are made up of mental energy. Quick-witted and intelligent, they are like a breath of fresh air. Their curiosity is boundless and they will bounce ideas around like the breeze. Their downfall is the tendency to intellectualize their emotions.</span></div>
<h3 style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.011em !important; line-height: 1.3; margin-bottom: 8px !important; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">The Water Signs: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces</span></h3>
<div style="border: 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); letter-spacing: 0.21449999511241913px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Emotional, sensitive, and otherworldly, water signs are as deeply mysterious as the ocean. Much like Kennedy, these signs often have intense dreams and psychic intuition. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Just a little update on book number 5 in the Twelfth Keeper series. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I have no cover. No synopsis. No release date. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Basically, I don't have much.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
What <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I <i>do</i> have is a title, and I also wanted to let you know I </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">am</i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> working on it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><i>And...</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This may be my <span style="font-size: x-large;"><i>favorite</i></span> book of the series. Seriously, guys. I'm in love with this story. Maybe that's why it's taking me so long to finish.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I still haven't decided if this will be the last book. I really wanted this to be the last one. I don't know why. Something about the number five, maybe. Seems like a good number. At the moment, I'm leaning toward no. I've mentioned before how I want to do the ending justice. We'll see how it goes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">But do me a favor, will ya? </span><span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="color: #1d2129;">Add it to your TBR on Goodreads!</span><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span></span><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40102634-electric-skies" rel="nofollow" style="border: none;" target="_blank"><img alt="Electric Skies (Twelfth Keeper #5)" src="https://www.goodreads.com/images/atmb_add_book-70x25.png" /></a><br />

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 150%;">T</span>he stars were disappearing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">One by one, their soft twinkle faded
into the dark abyss. Kennedy stared out the window, watching her hopes and
dreams dim with the constellations. The loneliness was suffocating. She had
never felt more isolated, more estranged from the universe. She pressed her
hand against her heart, feeling her chest ache with heaviness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: #351c75;">You left me here in the dark.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">She wasn’t sure where the thought had
come from or why she felt like this.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">A hand touched her shoulder, and she
gasped. She spun around too quickly, nearly tripping in the process. His arms
came around her waist, steadying her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">“<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Phoenix</i>.”
She gasped his name.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">Her heart pounded as she met his
piercing black eyes. The sharp, intimidating angles of his face softened, but
there was sadness in his gaze. A quiet, desolate sadness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">Her eyes roamed over him, drinking him
up. She touched his face, wanting to make sure he was real. If it was possible,
he looked more handsome than she remembered.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">Wait.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">There it was.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">A <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">memory</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">It edged out of the confines of her
mind, reminding her of something. Reminding her that…<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: #351c75;">No.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">She looked around, noticing her
surroundings. The pool, the skylights up above. They were standing in the
recreation center on Olympus. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">But they weren’t really here.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #351c75;">This wasn’t her Phoenix. And it would
only be a matter of time before this one would disappear too. </span><span style="color: #351c75; text-indent: 0.4in;">“Not again,” she whispered...</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">“W</span>hat’s going on, Professor?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Mason stopped pacing, and looked
directly at him. “I don’t know if I should be the one to tell you this. I don’t
even know <i>how</i> to tell you this. My
God, I can’t process it myself.” He let
out a long, shaky breath. “The <i>Pegasus</i>
was attacked.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Phoenix’s heart stopped. He couldn’t
breathe, couldn’t move a muscle. It felt like the wind had been knocked out of
him. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“At first I thought it was a ploy. A
way to get the keepers back in Olympus,” Mason continued. “But Vickard showed
me the data logs.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">He coughed, trying to find his voice. “He
must have forged them.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“I wish he had, Phoenix, but they look
legitimate.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<i><span style="color: #674ea7;">No. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">This had to be a mistake. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“There’s also Kennedy’s Series
Seven android, Matilda. Her feed is consistent with the data logs.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">He shook his head, unable to believe
it. “How—?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“Sae-yers.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Everything was spinning. </span><span style="color: #674ea7;">“D</span><span style="color: #674ea7;">on’t tell me
she’s dead. Don’t you dare tell me she’s dead. I won’t believe you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“One escape pod launched from the
vessel. According to android’s feed, Kennedy was on it. There’s a good chance
she might still be alive. Unfortunately, the android lost communication with
the pod after it launched so they don’t know for sure.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Phoenix stood, and walked to the
window. He pressed his palms against the glass, taking a
shaky breath. It took everything he had to keep himself calm. He wanted to
shatter the glass with his bare hands. He wanted to destroy everything in this
room. He wanted to pummel Vickard until the general was barely recognizable. <i>How</i> could they let this happen? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">His insides twisted, and he knew he
was about to be sick.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“And everyone else?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“No one else survived.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">That was all he could handle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">He reached for the wastebasket, his
body heaving as emptied his stomach. He tried not to see their faces, but they
came to him anyway—Alanna. Colton. Bloody hell. <i>Two </i>keepers at once. Gone. He couldn’t believe they were gone. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Mason waited until he was done. When
he turned around, he saw the professor leaning against the wall, his hands
covering his haggard face. “It’s my fault,” he said in a broken voice. “I
convinced them to do the mission.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“It’s not your fault.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“I’m so sorry, Phoenix. Vickard said
he’s scrambling to put together a rescue mission to leave as soon as possible.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">At least they had a plan. “I want to
be on it.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Mason sobered, and faced him. “Impossible.
You know you’re needed here.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“I <i>will</i>
be on that ship, Professor.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“We’ve already lost three keepers. The
world can’t afford to lose you, too.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“My world <i>is</i> Kennedy. She’s out there somewhere, lost, afraid—who knows what
she’s thinking.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“Look, I know this news doesn’t come
easy, but you really need to think about the implications of your actions. What
it will mean for you, the other keepers, and the entire planet. She can’t come
first—”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“She does come first.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“Oh, come now. Be reasonable—”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“She comes first. Always.” Phoenix
said it point-blank, his voice deadly serious. “I know what I am, Professor; I
don’t take that responsibility lightly. But nothing you can say will change my
mind.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Mason frowned, his brow furrowing into
deep lines. “I didn’t realize the two of you had gotten so close.” He sighed. “Vickard
is going to use this to his advantage. The U.S. government doesn’t have
explorer vessels at their disposal. They won’t be able to plan their own rescue
mission. It will all have to be done through DOE.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Because let’s face it, they could use
this against him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">And he would let them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“Vickard will probably make me sign
some contract binding me to DOE for the rest of my life—I don’t care. Whatever
it takes to get Kennedy back, I’ll do it.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“Be smart about this, Phoenix. For
God’s sake, don’t go in there and show him all your cards.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“He already knows he has me. I quit
for Kennedy, remember?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Technically he quit because Sigly
tried to drown her. Back then he didn’t know what Kennedy would come to mean to
him; he was just sick of watching Sigly treat her and everyone else like a
science experiment. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">“That was under extreme
circumstances,” Mason allowed. “Doesn’t mean Vickard knows everything.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Phoenix doubted that. He and Kennedy
had broken into the general’s office once before. The guy kept files on all the
keepers. He made it his business to know everything there was to know about all
of them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Kennedy swallowed, instinctively knowing what it would feel like to wear this dress. It would be light. Airy. Like being wrapped in a misty cloud…but how could she know that?</span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“I’m catching a rise in your heart rate, cupcake. Is the gown overwhelming you with excitement or is something else going on?” </span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It used to bother Kennedy how effortlessly a robot could read her emotions. Matilda knew her better than most humans, and there was something a little creepy about that. Her perceptiveness was growing on her though. Talking to Matilda felt like talking to an old friend. An old friend that calculated her moods and expressions with better precision than a psychoanalyst, but in an endearing, familiar sort of way. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">And in the dress’s case, Matilda was dead on. Time was hurling backward. </span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“</span><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I’ve seen this dress before.” </span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“You’re not getting enough oxygen to your brain,” the android admonished. “I suggest you sit down and take a few deep breaths.” </span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">B</span><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ursts of images raced through Kennedy’s head. The overwhelming déjà vu pummeled into her so hard it made her nauseous. “The dreams …I was wearing this in my dreams with Phoenix.” </span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“The ones you told me about? With the crumbling ceiling and the pool that overflowed?” </span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">She dropped the dress so quickly, it was as if it were on fire, the fabric pooling in a puddle at her feet. She stared down at it, her mind scrambling to figure out a rational explanation.
</span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Except there wasn’t one. “This can’t be happening.

The world still isn’t safe. The keepers still aren’t strong enough to defend it. The people still have no idea how much is at stake.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">The Department of Extraterrestrials is planning an important mission, one that means seeking the help of another planet in order to save theirs. Kennedy is reluctant to leave at such a critical time, but her role in the mission is essential to its success. With everyone she loves still at risk, she’s willing to do anything to find the key to survival.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Even if that means crossing the universe.</span><br />

Although she’s happy spending time with her family, she begins to question DOE’s motives for sending her home when she should be training. Something’s up and she knows it. </span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: start;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: start;">Searching for answers, she turns to Phoenix, the one person she can trust…or so she thought.

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">When sixteen-year-old Kennedy Mitchell is proclaimed the world’s last keeper, she thinks it’s a cruel joke. Come on, her? Impossible. She’s no warrior. She isn’t wise beyond her years, or more importantly, capable of keeping Earth safe. </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white;">Except...no one will listen. And since all evidence says otherwise, the job is hers whether she likes it or not. </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white;">During the highly demanding training regime that follows, Kennedy struggles to fit in with Earth’s renowned protectors. Especially Phoenix Jorgensen, who openly despises her. Problem is, he may be the only one she can trust. The keepers have big secrets surrounding them. Secrets Kennedy isn’t comfortable knowing, much less being apart of. With Phoenix’s help, she’ll have to find a way out. </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white;">Either that, or die trying.</span></span><br />

<br />
Short answer: No.<br />
<br />
Long Answer: <i>Ocean of Stars</i> precedes a larger part of Kennedy's journey. In fact, I never actually intended to write the story of Book 3 in the way it unfolded. The original plan was to start the timeline six months after the point where COTU ended...that didn't work out so well. I kept going back and revising my outline to include more flashback scenes, and eventually I realized I was skipping over vital developments. Sometimes these characters know more than I do. They want their stories told the way they want. *shrugs* Gotta give in to the creative process ;)<br />
<br />
<b>So how many books are you planning?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Short answer: I don't know.<br />
<br />
Long answer: The story has to feel complete, and the characters need to have fully developed. At this point, there will definitely be a fourth, possibly a fifth. Beyond that, I can't say for sure. I've known from the beginning where Kennedy and Phoenix are heading, but I have no idea how many books it will take to tell their story.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Let me know if you guys have any other questions. I love hearing from readers!<br />

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Kennedy averted her gaze. “It’s
unimportant.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She had recurrent nightmares about the
Rec Center. Never in a million years would he have guessed she would be here,
but here she was. He wanted to know why. Because he seriously doubted that
whatever brought her was unimportant. He knew her well enough to know that
everything in her life was colored with meaning. She looked at the world
differently than most people. Considered every possibility. Searched for shades
of gray. It’s why she had such a hard time accepting her role as the twelfth
keeper <span style="line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "MS 明朝"; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast;">in the beginning</span>. Until she expanded her own awareness, she couldn’t
believe it. Refused, even. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She needed meaning more than anyone he
had ever known. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“Tell me,” he urged softly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She looked at him for a long moment,
then shrugged a shoulder. “I guess I came here for answers.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">He nodded, understanding. This place
seemed to rule her subconscious. Played at her fears. “Did you get them?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“Not yet.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“Are you still afraid I’ll end up out
there?” He nodded toward the skylights. “Because you can rest assured, I’ll
never leave. I won’t leave Earth, and I won’t leave you. Tell your dreams
they’re wrong.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She half-smiled, a dreamy yet contemplative look in her eyes. "If only it could be that simple."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-indent: .4in;">

No, I'm not! I swear!<br />
<br />
However, it may seem that way. I haven't been very active on this blog, and I haven't had a new release in a while. I know I owe you guys the 3rd TK book (Ocean of Stars). I promise it's coming.<br />
<br />
The reason it's taking so long is because I've been EXTREMELY busy. I also write Contemporary Romance under the name "Shanna Clayton" and I've been working on books in that genre for the past year. Between finishing those projects and working on Ocean of Stars, I also got married. Let's just say planning a wedding is easier said than done. It was supposed to be a small wedding. Just family and close friends. Nothing too over the top...well apparently my husband had a bazillion relatives I didn't know about. My "small" wedding went out the door. So that's where all my attention has been focused---and I really apologize. Thank you guys for waiting patiently. I plan to have the 3rd book out some time later this year.<br />
<br />
Until then, feel free to check out my books under my other alias. You can find them <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Shanna-Clayton/e/B00J7VCGOG/ref=dp_byline_cont_ebooks_1">HERE on Amazon</a> or <a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/c/shanna-clayton">HERE on Barnes and Nobles</a>Bellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01347732282545143063noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5771745760142187833.post-47402400858717703122013-11-29T04:31:00.002-08:002013-12-03T02:56:55.549-08:00More Goodreads Giveaways!<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Happy Holidays!

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Of course, you guys! I wouldn't leave you hanging with an ending like that. That would just be mean. As soon as I get closer to finishing, I'll announce a release date. I'm shooting for the end of this year, but we'll see how it goes.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">So for the record, I PROMISE that Kennedy and Phoenix will get a third book. Definitely. For sure. Absolutely.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />
Because I'm super excited about releasing the next book in the <i>Twelfth Keeper</i> series, I've decided to hold a giveaway. I couldn't decide how many copies I should give out though so I decided to have some fun with it :) I'll give away more copies based on the number of "to-reads" COTU generates. Sooooo....
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>If 50 people mark it as "to-read" I'll give out one copy. </li>
<li>If 150 people mark it as "to-read" I'll give out two copies.</li>
<li>If 300 people mark it as "to-read" I'll give out three copies. </li>
</ul>
Easy, right?<br />
<br />
I could go on and on with this because your excitement equals my excitement :) I may do more of this kind of stuff in the future.<br />

End of the world?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Taking a vacation wasn’t what Kennedy Mitchell had in mind after aliens threatened to attack Earth. Although she’s happy spending time with her family, she begins to question DOE’s motives for sending her home when she should be training. Something’s up and she knows it.</div>
</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Searching for answers, she turns to Phoenix, the one person she can trust…or so she thought. It seems even he has secrets, and the more she discovers, the more she wonders if anything they had together was real.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The stakes are higher than they’ve ever been. One keeper goes missing. Another is determined to destroy her. As if that isn't enough to deal with, everyday humans get closer to annihilation. This time Kennedy has no one to rely on but herself.</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #351c75;">Book two in <i>The</i> <i>Twelfth Keeper</i> Series </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Are
you still up for fighting?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">That
got her attention right away. Once her surprise wore off, she said, “I’ve
changed my mind about that.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Come
on,” he cajoled her. “I can play by the rules.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Fighting
was interacting. He should have seen that yesterday, but he’d been too worried
about hurting her. Today his head was clear. He decided he would let her beat
the shit out him if it made her feel better. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Well,
she could <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">try</i> anyway.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">A
frown puckered her lips as she debated. “No, you’ll just let me win.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Not
an acceptable answer. One way or another, he had to convince her to fight. “I
promise you won’t even come close.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“You
sound mighty confident,” she said, narrowing her eyes on him. “How do I know
you’ll put up a fair fight?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Guess
you’ll just have to trust me.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She
glanced towards the sparring floor, then back at him, traces of doubt shadowing
her eyes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“How
can you refuse the chance to knock me down? Unless you don’t think you can…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
was laying the cockiness on pretty thick, but it did exactly what he intended
it to do. Her eyes flashed, letting him know he finally goaded her into it. “Fine,
but this better not be some game you’re playing.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
held his hands up. “No games. I’m only giving you a chance to do me some
serious damage. I doubt you can, but we’ll see.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Let’s
make this interesting,” Phoenix said, getting into position. “For every time
you manage to hit me, I’ll give you a hundred globals. If you knock me down,
I’ll give you two hundred.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Seriously?”
She arched a brow. “You’re on, buddy.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The
buzzer went off and she dove for him. Phoenix not only blocked her attempt, but
also got hold of her arms, swung her around, and stopped her from moving by
securing an arm around her ribcage.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">That
was almost too easy. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
leaned across her shoulder to say, “Told you I wouldn’t let you win.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The
top of his arm brushed the underside of her breasts. Kennedy’s breath hitched
and he felt her body stiffen at the touch. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">This
kind of contact normally went unnoticed. The twelve of them trained so much on
this floor, it wasn’t uncommon for one of them to end up accidentally groping
body parts while trying to keep their opponent at bay. Most people’s only
concern was trying to keep from getting knocked down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The
fact that such a small touch<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> was</i>
bothering her thrilled Phoenix. He decided to have some fun with it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
gave her an out by moving his feet back. Oblivious to what he was doing, she
used that opportunity to kick him in the shin. He faked the need to recoil,
allowing her the ability escape his hold. To his surprise, she was back in
position quickly, ready to attack. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
tilted his head to the side, impressed. “You’re getting better.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">When
she moved toward him, he ducked the other way. She swung her leg around to kick
him, but he saw it coming and grabbed her by the ankle. She landed on the mat
on her butt, groaning.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 200%; mso-outline-level: 1; text-indent: .4in;">
<span style="line-height: 200%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">When
she tried to get up, Phoenix pushed her down by straddling her with own body
and pinning her arms to the floor behind her head. “What an interesting
position,” he said, grinning down at her. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
