CRUSHED SUGAR is Released!

Good morning, Skiffy Rommers!  In the hustle and bustle, I forgot to do a few things to celebrate CRUSHED, including announcing it here.  Oops.  Well, guess what, I've released my *prequel* novella, CRUSHED SUGAR!  It is romantic, but not an official Romance with an HEA.  And there isn't much Science Fiction in this one, because it's set three months *before* SUGAR RUSH and the Heroine has no idea there are vampiric alien/hybrids around.  She is a geek though, kind of like MacGyver's kid sister.  'Course, that show was ten or so years ago, which means she'd be more like his daughter.  In any case, she's not Buffy the Vampire Slayer and this isn't Twilight either.  My teenage daughter explains it this way-.
"Buffy slays 'em, Bella kisses 'em, and Ophelia addicts 'em to Nintendo DS."
.
So, if you're looking for a girl-geek heroine, please check out my Young Adult series, including Crushed, which is the first story, chronilogically in the series, although not the first released.
.
You still have time to enter the Grand Prize Drawing too!
   Release of CRUSHED SUGAR by Kimber An

CRUSHED SUGAR Release Date is March 25th

It's far less SFR than Sugar Rush because it's a *prequel* and the Heroine hasn't begun using her geeky talents on the bad guys yet.  She's only 16 and doesn't know there are alien-human hybrids around yet.  She does use her geek-girl brilliance in other ways though, like rigging a food processor she knows a mean chick is going to steal from her.  So, when the mean chick starts it up, she gets splattered with green goo.  There's lots of empathic, telepathic, and creepy vampire-like tension-building, plus forbidden romance and unrequited love though.  It's set three months before the start of Sugar Rush.  Pop over to About CRUSHED SUGAR if you want to learn more.

Hey, you know what?  It's kinda nice not to be a freaked-out debut author anymore.

Cyber-Launch Book Party for SUGAR RUSH

SUGAR RUSH Released & a Cyber-Launch Party!

Good morning, Skiffy Rommers!  My YA SFR, Sugar Rush, was scheduled to be released today, but was, in fact, released earlier this week from Decadent Publishing .  I'm throwing a Cyber-Launch Book Party for it tomorrow, Saturday, October 23rd at my book review blog, Enduring Romance.  If you're unfamiliar with what that means, click here and read the last one I threw for Linnea Sinclair-   http://enduringromance.blogspot.com/2008/08/shades-of-dark-cyber-launch-book-party.html
We'll have a drawing for a free Sugar Rush eBook and an Alaskan moose plush toy, and maybe some other goodies.
.
Meanwhile, here's the blurb for Sugar Rush-
.
Running and screaming will have to wait. A blood-sucking dead guy may be a vampire to you, but he’s an alien/human hybrid to Ophelia and she really must examine his olfactory nerve under a microscope first.
.
Ophelia longs to be free, free of Diabetes, free of her ex-boyfriend, free to live. Something transformed Martin and made her his drug. If he has his way, she’ll never achieve the freedom to learn his true nature and origin.
.
Adrian’s the new guy in school. He faked his identity to get close to Ophelia, knowing the monsters who took his Diabetic sister would try to take her, too. Then, he’d have them. But, he knew better than to get too close.
.
Oh, yeah, he did.
.
Seriously.

It's Young Adult SFR, but present day and Earth-bound.  Although, Alaska might as well be another planet sometimes!

I'm just now coming to terms with my happy state of shock and am gathering together in my head everything I need to do.
