GENRE: Paranormal Romance

BLURB:

Teran Richter is in Animas, Colorado, to find members of the Folk, a simple task. But the annual Animas Fall Festival brings hordes of tourists and daily celebrations that make it frustrating. Things begin to look up when Teran meets Marika Sager. Marika’s business partner Eva seems to be a member of the Folk, only it’s Marika Teran’s attracted to, particularly after a local witch’s brew sends the two into a memorable night of passion.

But there are sinister forces at work in Animas. Teran’s attacked and his assistant is kidnapped. When Marika also disappears, Teran’s forced to confront the truth: someone is out to sabotage his mission and destroy anyone who tries to help. With an eccentric team of magical allies, Teran must rescue Marika and fight off those who want to destroy both him and the Folk. But can he find a way to confront the shadowy forces while keeping himself and his lover safe from harm?

EXCERPT THREE:

The first man spun. Teran spied a glint of metal in the man’s hand and threw himself to the ground as a shot rang out. He rolled behind a tree when a second shot splintered a branch above him. “Eva, get down,” he yelled.

Either Eva didn’t hear him or didn’t care. She strode out on the trail, her expression ferocious. “What do you think you’re doing?”

The man with the gun whirled toward her, his eyes widening. “What?”

“You heard me,” she snapped. “Firing a gun out here on the trail where people hike. You should be ashamed of yourself.”

The gunman shook his head as if trying to clear it. “Get back. Get out of the way.”

“No.” Eva stepped in front of him, and Teran leapt to his feet. If he moved fast he might be able to push her aside before the man shot her.

Eva raised her hand and slapped the gunman across one cheek. As Teran gaped, the man dropped to his knees and then fell face down across the trail.

Teran felt like shaking his head as the gunman had done. What the hell had he just seen? His brain couldn’t process fast enough. “What are you, some kind of martial artist?”

Eva shrugged. “Something like that. These two should be out of commission for a while. We need to help Bertie and Marika.”

Teran swallowed. “Right.”

GUEST POST:

The Character I Identify Most With

I really wish I could say I identify with my guy Prince Bertie in Unseen since he’s suave, sophisticated and sensitive, but if I’m being honest, I have to admit that I’m not really any of those things (well, I’m sort of sensitive, some of the time). In reality I think I identify most with my heroine, Marika Sager.

Marika thinks of herself as a sort of normal, everyday kind of person. True, she’s a talented weaver and the owner of an art gallery, but compared to the company she keeps, she’s decidedly ordinary. Marika, you see, is surrounded by supernatural types. Her lover, my hero Teran Richter, is half Seelie, which means he’s 1) amazingly handsome since that’s the most notable thing about the Seelies, and 2) a member of the Folk, descendants of European fairies who live in the Rocky Mountain region. Teran has come to town to find members of the Folk who need help, and he thinks Marika’s business partner and best friend, Eva Winchester, may fall into that category. He brings along his assistant, Reynard, another member of the Folk, and he ends up calling in his boss, Bertie, who’s a full-fledged fairy prince. Moreover, Marika discovers that Eva’s aunt Gudrun, whom she’s known for years, is actually a very talented witch, head of the Durango coven.

Is it any wonder that Marika begins to feel like the least special person around? She’s continually looking for explanations so that she can understand what’s going on. She also feels a little embarrassed by her own ordinariness. And I’d argue that’s a very common feeling, certainly one I’ve had myself. She doesn’t begrudge her friends their specialness, but she does wish she were a little more extraordinary, too.

But here’s the thing: in reality, Marika has a lot more going for her than she realizes. Part of what happens in Unseen is the revelation of Marika’s unique qualities. She really is someone quite special. And isn’t that something we’d all like to see acknowledged about ourselves? Marika is our stand-in, an ordinary person who really is extraordinary deep down. I hope you’ll enjoy her story as much as you enjoy the mysteries and plots swirling through Unseen. Teran undergoes his own hero’s journey, but so does Marika. And hers takes place inside.
