Elias Raven: BLOG TOUR

 

About the Elias Raven:

 

Elias Raven was born and raised in Los Angeles. He’s an avid reader with a lifelong passion for writing. He’s a storyteller, a poet and a talented musician with an amazing voice. Oh, and let’s not forget an amazing cook!

As a young boy, he spent many summers reading classics such as “The Adventures of Sherlock Homes” and “The White Company” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His creativity was constantly being pushed as he learned more and more about the world around him. His taste in literature spanned from classics to science fiction/fantasy. He expanded his taste devouring everything from William Blake to Milton, Dante, Baudelaire, Arthur Rimbaud, T.S. Elliot, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Khalil Gibran, William Carlos Williams, Ezra Pound, Paul Verlaine, Walt Whitman, Alan Ginsburg, Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs, Carl Sandburg, Dylan Thomas, and Jim Morrison. These inspirations and his sheer love for reading had him take pen to paper around the age of 20.

Did I mention he’s a Musician? …You can often find him playing his guitars (both electric and acoustic) and keyboards and singing (4 octave ranges) in his home studio. He’s a classically trained music aficionado -trained early on by Beethoven, Brahms, Mozart, Hayden, Liszt, as well as Big Band, Jazz and Rag Time. Spending time with his father at the Los Angeles Philharmonic; experiencing his first orchestra concert at the age of 9.

Elias the Gourmet Cook…Oh My!…His Japanese mother and grandmother trained him very well in fine culinary skills both in cooking and food appreciation from all over the world such as Italian, Indian, Moroccan, Thai, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Hawaiian, Pilipino, Greek, and Polish.

When Elias is not reading, writing, composing music or cooking…he can be found listening to music, playing games, hanging out with his kids. He enjoys going to concerts, going on culinary adventures, sightseeing, spending the day at the beach or in the mountains…just doing something adventurous!

SYNOPSIS:

 

Elias never saw it coming. The deception had been flawless. He had looked into the dark eyes of his half-brother Qaylin. The torrent of anger and rage rose from the dark abyss of his soul at what this bastard had done. It was unlike anything he had ever felt before or since… A million times a million Cains screamed across the Heavens. Their voices echoed in his head demanding the blood of the betrayer, Qaylin!

 

Elias knew it was time he stopped fighting from a position of weakness. He had to get up and take the fight to the enemy’s doorstep and he only had a small window of time to do so. He would have to strike while they thought he was beaten, then stand toe to toe against the forces of Hell itself. Somehow he had to even the odds and give him and his men a fighting chance to win. But his ancient enemies were powerful. It appeared as though the heavens had been eerily quiet as if the matters of men no longer mattered to the angelic host. It seemed Lucifer had full dominion over this mortal coil. If that was so, what chance did Elias and his men have against such an enemy?

 

“The Rage of Angels” is the explosive second book in the CAIN series.

Excerpt (Unedited):

 

Elias~ I didn’t get it, it was like my brain at that moment had stopped functioning.

Like it was made of glass and had shattered into a million tiny fragments

of images and emotion painted across the television screen as I watched

the flames burn. My empire was on fire! G and Parker were dead! My mother

was bitter and my brother had just sliced me open from head to toe with

a katana of raw emotion playing me like Nero while Rome burned.

 

I screamed so loudly everyone in the house came running, beating on the

doors to the den. The tears exploded out of me like a fountain! I dropped

to my knees in front of my father, in front of the screen unable to comprehend

the ass kicking I was taking from this man.

 

My dad waited looking down at his hands, unable to even comprehend

but at the same time feeling everything. He was part of me after all.

My cell phone chimed as my mother and Khyentse calling over and over again

I slammed my fists into the floor until my hands started to bleed, but I didn’t care.

I wasn’t feeling it, I was pain, I was anger, I was the flame, my emotions, my feelings everything was a white-hot poker of anger.

 

 

I felt like a cyclone of rage as I stood up. I have never ever wanted to kill before,

but at that moment me… us… were all in unison. Qaylin was a dead man. I was going

to personally kill him and I was going to look him right in the eye when I did it

so he knew who did it, just like when he killed my father… Like when he killed me.

 

I was going to do it cold blooded too. I wasn’t going to use a sniper, I was going to fight him hand to hand, I was going to beat him, break him until he was a bloody mess

and still it wasn’t going to give me satisfaction… But at the same time, it was going to

feel oh so fucking good.

Let’s celebrate the Release of Audrey Randall’s book Playing Her Game!!!

Audrey Randall

Audrey’s Bio:

I’m just a girl who loves romance with heat in my books. From a young age, I used to sneak romance novels to read in the middle of the night. The more smut the better! When I’m not picturing men in kilts or preferably nothing at all, I like to read, watch movies, and eat as much ice cream as possible!

Feel free to contact me! I love to hear from my readers! 🙂

 

Playing Her Game (The Celestial Prophesy Book 2)

About Playing Her Game:

He’s burning up on this latest assignment…

Dante de la Vega is one of the hottest reporters in Mexico. He’s got it all. The looks, the talent, and the bullet wounds to prove his street cred. So, to a man used to covering the most dangerous drug cartels in Mexico, being sent to cover a video game tournament seems trivial. That was until he stumbled upon Stephanie Stevens, known as Star Fury in The Celestial Prophesy, playing Pokémon GO in the bushes. She may have looked crazy to the rest of the world as she swiped at her phone screen, but he saw his North Star. Luckily, he knew that she liked what she saw when she finally looked up at him. Now, he’ll do anything in his power to make her see that they should collide- even if that means playing up the Latin lover stereotype, no matter what the truth really is.

Karma is a bitch…

Steph, known as Star Fury, is on a mission to regain her title as a top pro player in The Celestial Prophesy. When she broke her wrists before the regional competition, she guilt-tripped her twin sister, Aimee, to fill in for her. However, karma is a bitch that bit her in the butt. During the regional competition, Aimee scored for the other team and played so poorly that the press is wondering if Steph Stevens has lost her luster.

She can’t afford to burn out…

Steph can’t afford to be distracted during the North American Tournament. She needs to perform or her career will supernova. But, the stars are not aligning and things seem to be crashing down as she deals with more injuries, bloodthirsty competitors, and a hot Latin lover who sets her body ablaze. The question will be can Dante be her Jedi knight or will he just be a distracting Casanova?

Caution: This scorching hot short story makes the Sun feel cold. If you love video games and hot Latin men, then this one is for you! It is a complete story with a happily ever after! Just so you know, there’s a lot of SIZZLING scenes. Enjoy if you’re 18+.

Savannah’s Bio:

I have traveled the world, fought against injustice, and brought evil to a grinding halt. I have made kings and destroyed empires. I have owned businesses, been a housewife and worked as an office assistant. I have written ingenious copy for PR campaigns and I have been an evil Senator. I have built towns, painted world renowned art, and photographed the world. I have found love in the most unlikely places and I have been betrayed. I have scratched and clawed my way out of dissolute situations and I have caused those I love pain. I can fly a plane and a helicopter. I can dismantle a bomb and find the cure of diseases. I can shift into any creature I wish and I am magical. I am a Warrior Goddess who will smite you down or send a faerie in to help you find true love. I am all of these things and more…in the fertile depths of my creativity.

In truth, I live in Central MS with my husband and two dogs and live a simple life, which I love. I have an adventurous spirit and thoroughly enjoy seeing new places while meeting new and interesting people.

Sharon Johnson: Poet & Author

Collage 2016-08-21 14_18_39

Today is the Official Release Day for Sharon’s Book: Eclectic Poet My Voice!!!

 

61el02l2bqkl

 

Sharon’s Bio:

From the time Sharon Johnson learned to write, she had one dream, to become a writer and author. Writing has always been the one constant through every moment, both good and bad, in her life. She started with basic Haiku and rhyming poems; then later, she started writing simple one to two-page stories. She’s always kept journals documenting her life and those of her children. Through every poem, story and journaled event, she never stopped looking for what she calls her ‘Charmed’ book. Year after year the book never came, until the summer of 2013, when a two to three-page idea max, turned into ten then twenty pages and kept growing from there. It became clear within a very short time, her characters had much more to say and their story was far from over. And that’s how ‘The Chat Room’ was born. Eighteen months and a lifetime later, her dream finally became a reality in August 2015. There’s a saying she’s created as a part of her daily mantra; “Never stop looking for your happy ending, because your story isn’t finished yet… Just a few fun facts      She never tires of intellectual stimulation in whatever form it comes. She’s never met a stranger she didn’t like or couldn’t crack up in the first ten minutes after they meet. She loves to read anything romantic or erotica. She also writes poetry, as well as short stories and has a following on Facebook that grows weekly. She has the heart of a twelve year and considers grown-ups boring and not much fun lol. She prides herself on being able to sit Indian style and touch her face to the floor and she loves NFL football. There’s never been a pizza she didn’t love or a piece of chocolate she’d ever say no to. And most importantly; she never forgets how blessed she is and how important it is to tell those in her life how much they mean to her.

Sharing for Sharon: More words about Sharon

“Sharon, I know how much today means to you and I’m excited to help you celebrate the release of something so profound. You have an artistic flair with words that is difficult to ignore. Your personality and the way that you support other authors and friends makes you even more dynamite.  Hopefully today has been as amazing as you deserve and more. That “blank canvas” of yours should be filled with all of the love and support from those of us who can’t get enough of you. In case I don’t say it enough: Sharon, thanks for being you.”

Author Jade Royal

 

“Sharon has been an inspiration with both her written words and her friendship. She’s willing to help others in their journey in this maddening career we’ve chosen. And I have the privilege of calling her a friend and colleague.”

Author Teresa Crumpton

“Sharon, I’ve only had the pleasure of knowing you for a few short months, but the impression your words and your person have made on me make it seem as if you’ve always been a part of my circle of friends. Your poetry creates such imagery when I read it… exotic, erotic, exquisite… TRUE… that’s what your words are… They reach inside of me, touching my mind and my heart with their genuine feeling and wisdom. As a person, Sharon, you have always impressed with your calm, kind presence… Your optimistic greetings and encouraging words… Your support for authors and friends… It has been a gift to know you and I hope one I will continue to enjoy for a long time to come. Congratulations on your new release! I can’t wait to read it!”

Author Gabriella Messina

 

“Sharon Johnson and I are the new kids on the block. I’ve found nothing but grace and elegance in Sharon, both as a person, a poet, and an author. She’s been wonderfully supportive of me and my writing, and I am thrilled beyond words to call her my friend. I’m looking forward to a continued, brilliant, writing career from this woman, but even more so, I looked to build an enduring friendship!”

Author Ellie Masters

Some Poetic words from Sharon:

Something that lost… 

You’re busy again, but it’s been that way for a while now. I miss the days when the excitement between us, crackled like a roaring fire. I miss the days when you tangled your fingers through my hair and overtook my mouth with yours; devouring it, owning it and sending shivers down my spine. The way you’d loosen your hold slightly and my lashes would flutter, as I slowly opened my eyes and looked into your eyes. That deep contented sigh you’d make, as you looked at my face and your full beautiful lips would begin to turn up in a smile. Your breathing was like music to my ears, every time we made love and our rhythm was perfectly in sync. I miss the man who use to be my hero…the one who wrapped me up in his arms, and tell me I was safe and everything would be ok. There were so many nights we’d lay there in bed, just spooning, while you’d whisper sweet words in my ear. All the late night chats about everything and nothing at all. So many hopes and dreams we shared back then, and now; all we are, is a couple, linked together by a name and a forever that will never be.

Sharon Johnson Author Poet © February 2016.

Sharon has a collection of works that demonstrates her love of words and her amazing finesse of arranging them poetically.
