Book Description:
"Am I losing my mind?"
Paige couldn't help but question her sanity. What other explanation could there be for her hearing a conversation held barely above a whisper in the back of a classroom full of students? What about coming home to find one of those very classmates lying in wait in the darkness of her home, ready to attack her?
Confused, frustrated and feeling every ounce of her social ostracism, Paige confides in the one person she's always been able to count on: her mom. But when her mom reveals a deeply rooted, unbelievable family secret, Paige discovers her world is filled with more than she ever imagined possible. A world where fairytales live alongside nightmares and secrets are the glue that binds them together. Suddenly no one is who they seem and Paige is faced with more questions than answers. Can she survive in a world filled with creatures scarier than anything she could imagine and where deceit runs as thick as blood? Or will the truth send her over the edge?

What is your favorite fairy tale and why?
An interesting question and one I’ve never been asked before. Lucky for me it’s a rather easy one because I grew up with fairytales. They were definitely the beginning of my love for reading and the start of getting the ideas I had of love and overcoming obstacles out of my head and onto paper. Some of the very first things I wrote were poetry based on the love I found in fairytales. Albeit very bad poetry, it is still where I started and when I realized how much I loved writing. It became a way to express myself and take my mind off of everything and get my feelings out onto paper. Reading fairytales, or watching them via Disney movies, also became an outlet: A way for me to live the life of someone else instead of my own. Reading has always been that way and it is what I hope to create for others…an escape from realty and the ability to get lost in someone else’s world.
I digress. LOL! My favorite fairytale is Beauty and the Beast and it has been since childhood. There is something about the very basic idea of looking past what is on the outside and taking the time to get to know the person on the inside that has always stayed with me. Love forming between two people not based on looks, but substance. And today the same story translates well, although I do feel like the idea has been lost a little.
I’d like to thank Arianne for hosting me and for the chance to answer a very awesome question for all of her followers. I hope that you enjoy Black Moon and my take on Faeries, werewolves, and a few other supes.
Happy Reading!
