Cover Reveal: Iron & Aqua

I’m very excited to share the stunning cover of Amy McNulty’s upcoming novel, IRON & AQUA today!

Iron&Aquasmall

 

Title: Iron & Aqua

Series: Blood, Bloom, & Water Book Three

Publisher: Snowy Wings Publishing

Publication Date: First Quarter 2019

A beguiling vampire. The besotted girl who agreed to be his champion. The ongoing battle to save not only the vampires, but also the world.

 

Ember Goodwin didn’t realize that falling in love would mean sometimes transforming into a vampire—or that she’d be able to shoot fire from her hand. Though she never wanted her step-sister to be her enemy, she can’t just stand aside and let the merfolk proceed with their wicked plans. After walking amongst the undead, she knows that vampires are the true heroes of the ancient conflict, and she’ll do what it takes to make sure they win—even if that means going against the sibling who got caught up on the wrong side of the war.

 

The third book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series takes the war between fangs and fins to new heights as betrayals and secrets threaten to unravel even the best of intentions.

Cover Reveal: Salt & Venom

Today I’m sharing the cover of Amy McNulty’s next book, SALT & VENOM!

Salt&Venom_Ebook-Amazon

 

Title: Salt & Venom

Series: Blood, Bloom, & Water Book Two

Author: Amy McNulty

Publisher: Snowy Wings Publishing

Publication Date: 10/16/2018 (tentative)

An emboldened merman. The daring girl who agreed to be his champion. The upcoming battle that threatens to change everything they believe in.

Ivy Sheppard never wanted the ability to turn into a mermaid—though her wicked ice powers are nothing to sneeze at. Now her step-sister is her enemy, the fairy she once trusted may not be the ally she hoped for, and her new boyfriend wants her to transfer schools to avoid the vampires taking over Union High. Between dodging parents’ concerns, pretending she can stand to even look at the step-sister who sided with the bloodsuckers, and still aiming to end it all without violence, Ivy is in over her head. Unfortunately, these ancient enemies are itching to get the conflict started and Ivy may have no choice but to become the warrior the merfolk need her to be.

The second book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series starts the war between fangs and fins in earnest as the merfolk plan their assault to bring down the unnatural undead vampires once and for all.

The Silver Moon Saga is back!

I’ve been hinting that I have some Silver Moon Saga related news, and I can FINALLY share it today!

The Silver Moon Saga has gotten a makeover, with brand new covers that I am absolutely in love with. Not only that, but the insides have been reformatted and they look amazing. Also, for the first time ever, two short stories that I wrote for the YA Scavenger Hunt will now be available to buy. “Roast Chicken,” a story told from Rafe’s POV, is included with THE SIGHT SEER, and “Our Moment,” a story told from Kain’s POV, is included with THE SOUL HEALER. Exciting, right?

So, are you ready to see the fabulous covers, designed by MakeReady Designs?

As you can see, it’s completely different from the original cover (which I’ll always love) and features a scene from the book. Isn’t it super creepy and awesome? I especially love Gabi’s glowing hands! Also, check out that demon behind her!

The ebook is available on Amazon! Free if you have Kindle Unlimited!

soulhealerebook.jpg

Next up is THE SOUL HEALER! Here we have another scene in the book, featuring Gabi in Manhattan. And that creepy demon is back, lurking behind her.

The ebook is available on Amazon! Free if you have Kindle Unlimited!

And the final book in the series, THE SHADOW STEALER. It’s Gabi in Bryant Park, aka my favorite place in NYC. The details are great in this one, and yes, there’s that pesky demon again. If you’ve read this book, then you know exactly which demon that is.

The ebook is available on Amazon! Free if you have Kindle Unlimited!

And of course we can’t forget the novellas!

They’re a little different, but it makes sense since the novellas are different from the novels. The flowers are such a nice touch, especially since Gabi loves gardening. I love how dark these covers are.

An Autumn Dream is available on Amazon!

A Promise of Magic is available on Amazon!

(Print links for all the books to come!)

But wait, that’s not all! In addition to these new covers, I’m happy to announce that I will be publishing a BRAND NEW Silver Moon Saga short story. YES, you read that right. A new adventure for Gabi, set four months after the epilogue of THE SHADOW STEALER.

Here’s the cover:

Cats_Rats_and_Cowboy_Hats (3).jpg

And the blurb:

Gabi’s demon hunting days may be over, but that doesn’t mean her life has calmed down. When her sister, Chloe, walks in on Gabi and Rafe doing some hardcore making out in the pantry, Gabi must submit to her darling little sister’s demands or risk Chloe tattling and Gabi being grounded until she’s sixty.

Gabi spends a week in agony waiting for her sister to cash in on her favor. But what Chloe wants is even worse than Gabi imagined:

She has to cover one of Chloe’s shifts at the Convenience Corral.

Set four months after The Shadow Stealer’s epilogue, Cats, Rats, and Cowboy Hats is a hilarious new story that reunites readers with their beloved Silver Moon Saga characters.

Inspired by my trip to Texas, I had such a blast writing this one. It doesn’t have an official release date, but it’ll be out as an ebook soon, I promise! In the meantime, add it to your to-read list on Goodreads!In the meantime, add it to your to-read list on Goodreads!

Phew, there’s a lot going on, right? New covers, a new story… I hope you’re as excited about this as I am!

Cover Reveal: The Sleeping Ancient

All good things must come to an end, and today I’m sharing the cover of the final Smoke and Mirrors book, THE SLEEPING ANCIENT. When I first started writing THE FADING DUSK, I never imagined I would end up with a six book series. I figured it would be another trilogy, with maybe a novella containing some short stories. But after I started writing book two, things began shifting drastically from my intended outline, and I knew I was going to need another full length novel in order to tell Irina’s story properly.

And what a story it’s been.

THE SLEEPING ANCIENT releases May 22nd. It’s the longest book in the series, and I found it hard to say goodbye to these characters. But I’m satisfied with their ending, and I hope you will be, too!

And now, because I’ve had you wait long enough, here’s the cover!

The Sleeping Acient_Final-ebooksm

Once again, Regina Wamba of Mae I Design has blown me away with this gorgeous, stunning cover! All the little details are perfect, and I love that Irina is looking straight at you this time. Irina’s growth throughout this series is so important, and I wanted a cover that symbolizes how strong she’s become. She looks absolutely badass and I love it.

Let’s take a look at the full wrap!

The Sleeping Acient_Final-2.JPG

Yeah, I’m in love.

The entire series! Don’t they look amazing together?

Run and Touch the Sky has arrived!

It’s release day again! I can’t believe this is my tenth book! Thank you to everyone who’s been with me through this amazing journey, starting with THE SIGHT SEER back in 2013.

Run and Touch the Sky Cover

Today it’s all about RUN AND TOUCH THE SKY, a book that is very dear to me. As much as I struggled with this book, I’m proud with the end result, and I hope you enjoy it, too!

Purchase the ebook on Amazon! (Print coming soon!)

Again, this is a novella, which means it’s not part of the main story which features Irina as the narrator, but this book, like BY THE MORNING LIGHT, is very, very important to the Smoke and Mirrors series. In fact, a character introduced in RATTS (like that abbreviation?) is probably the most important character in the whole series (well, Irina is pretty important, too 😉 )! You can read this one on its own, but I strongly suggest reading the story in the order they were released:

  1. The Fading Dusk
  2. The Burning Chaos
  3. By the Morning Light
  4. The Whispering Echoes
  5. Run and Touch the Sky
  6. ???????????? (coming 2018!)

Yes, this is the penultimate book in the Smoke and Mirrors series. It’s almost over! But until then, I hope you enjoy Nerine’s story and RUN AND TOUCH THE SKY.

The Whispering Echoes is here!

the-whispering-echoes-final-ebooklg

Today’s the day! Irina’s story continues in THE WHISPERING ECHOES, the third full length novel in the SMOKE AND MIRRORS series!

Purchase the ebook here! The paperback is coming soon. I’ll add links as soon as it’s available!

I’ve been pretty quiet about this book because I don’t want to spoil anything, especially for those of you that haven’t read the earlier books. But I can say that I enjoyed writing this one and as of right now, it’s probably my favorite in the series. It’s crazy how different this book is from what I originally planned. And that’s mostly thanks to BY THE MORNING LIGHT. (Have you read that yet? If not, I strongly suggest reading it BEFORE you dive into THE WHISPERING ECHOES!) I love Claudette and Emile, and I’m so happy they were able to join Irina on her journey.

I really hope you enjoy this one!

Cover Reveal: Ballad of the Beanstalk

Hello! I’m so excited to share with you the cover for Amy McNulty’s new book, Ballad of the Beanstalk! This YA romantic fantasy fairy tale is a prequel to Jack and the Beanstalk. I read this one last year and it’s SO GOOD. And check out the amazing cover created by Makeready Designs.

beanstalkebook.jpg

As her fingers move across the strings of her family’s heirloom harp, sixteen-year-old Clarion can forget. She doesn’t dwell on the recent passing of her beloved father or the fact that her mother has just sold everything they owned, including that very same instrument that gives Clarion life. She doesn’t think about how her friends treat her like a feeble, brittle thing to be protected. She doesn’t worry about how to tell the elegant Elena, her best friend and first love, that she doesn’t want to be her sweetheart anymore. She becomes the melody and loses herself in the song.

When Mack, a lord’s dashing young son, rides into town so his father and Elena’s can arrange a marriage between the two youth, Clarion finds herself falling in love with a boy for the first time. Drawn to Clarion’s music, Mack puts Clarion and Elena’s relationship to the test, but he soon vanishes by climbing up a giant beanstalk that only Clarion has seen. When even the town witch won’t help, Clarion is determined to rescue Mack herself and prove once and for all that she doesn’t need protecting. But while she fancied herself a savior, she couldn’t have imagined the enormous world of danger that awaits her in the kingdom of the clouds.

A prequel to the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk that reveals the true story behind the magical singing harp.

Release Date: April 11th, 2017

The e-book will be exclusive to Amazon and will be available for free to Kindle Unlimited subscribers! The paperback will be available more widely; watch for news about ordering it as the release date approaches.

Title Reveal for Book 3!

Hello! I have some exciting news today. It’s time to reveal the title of the third book in the Smoke and Mirrors series. Are you ready?

Book three will be called…

THE WHISPERING ECHOES

What do you think? I’m rather fond of this one, and I think it goes nicely with The Fading Dusk and The Burning Chaos.

So, I really can’t tell you much about the book. I’d share the blurb, but I need to finish writing it it’s full of spoilers. Here’s what I can say about The Whispering Echoes:

  • It starts off right where The Burning Chaos left off.
  • Claudette and Emile from By the Morning Light are indeed in this book.
  • You might need tissues…

You can go ahead and add The Whispering Echoes to your Goodreads to-read list. And, as always, there’s a Pinterest board!

The Whispering Echoes will be released in 2017! Stay tuned for an official book release date and a cover reveal!

It’s that time again… Release day! I’m especially excited about this one. BY THE MORNING LIGHT was the book I never expected to write, but I’m so glad I did. These unexpected stories (like A PROMISE OF MAGIC from the Silver Moon Saga) always hold a special place in my heart and I hope you enjoy BY THE MORNING LIGHT as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Everything You Need to Know About BY THE MORNING LIGHT

Hello lovelies! How are you doing? I know, I know, I’ve been pretty quiet over here, but that’s because I’ve been very busy working on the Smoke and Mirrors series. The series is now one book longer than I planned (and three books longer than I originally planned!) and I’m about to get started on the first draft of the second novella, but that’s not what this post is about.

Today is all about BY THE MORNING LIGHT.

By the Morning Light - Melissa Giorgio - eBook - S

The first novella in the Smoke and Mirrors series takes place in a different city with a completely different cast of characters. I’ve said this before, but it’s worth repeating: You can read this one without reading THE FADING DUSK or THE BURNING CHAOS. You can read it before them, or you can read it after them. You just need to read it before book three (which won’t be out until next year, so you have some time). I won’t say why, so you’ll just have to trust me. 😉

What’s that? You want to read it NOW? Well, I have a special treat for you! BY THE MORNING LIGHT has been posted to WattPad and you can start reading today! The whole novella is there, so you don’t have to worry about getting sucked into the story, only to discover only four chapters have been posted.

Despite this, I am still releasing it on Amazon and Barnes and Noble as both an ebook and paperback. You can preorder the ebook from Amazon. (Paperback and Barnes and Noble links to come!) What’s so special about this version? Well, it comes with an exclusive short story that you won’t be able to find anywhere else. I’m a little bias since it’s about one of my favorite characters, but I think you should read it. 😉

Also, check out the full cover wrap designed by Berto Designs

Too pretty!

I hope you enjoy BY THE MORNING LIGHT. This is the book I never planned to write and it holds a special place in my heart.

Happy reading!
