Emma's checkered personal past, a bad relationship that haunts the edges of her memories, threatens to make everything implode on them when Evan takes matters into his own hands.

About the Author
Cassandra doesn't remember a time when she wasn't writing. In fact, the first time she was published was when she was seven years old and won a contest to be published in an American Girl Doll novel. Since then Cassandra has written more novels than she can count and put just as many in the circular bin. Her personal goal with her writing is to show the reader the character's stories through their dialogue and actions instead of just telling the reader what is happening. In 2012 she became a published Young Adult author, releasing In Between Seasons (The Fall #1) and Walking in the Shadows. In 2013 she branched out by using her artistic illustrating talents to publish her first Children's novel, The Adventures of Skippy Von Flippy: Tales of Friendship (Skippy Tales #1). Cassandra will also release her first New Adult novel, Just One Cup, in the Spring of 2013.
Cassandra is a freelance professional photographer known for her automotive, nature, and architectural shots. She is the owner of Gio Design Studios, a photography and publication marketing company that designs covers and marketing materials for authors utilizing the company's photography. She is currently studying to receive her associates degree in Marketing. Cassandra is happily married to the man of her dreams and they live in the rolling hills of New England with the other loves of their lives, their dogs Bubski and Kanga.

The Forgotten Ones by Laura Howard Live on Amazon
The Forgotten Ones
The Danaan Trilogy
Book One
is now available exclusively on Amazon!
Allison OMalley's plan is to go to grad school so she can get a good job and take care of her schizophrenic mother. She has carefully closed herself off from everything else, including a relationship with Ethan, who she's been in love with for as long as she can remember.
What is definitely not part of the plan is the return of her long-lost father, who claims he can bring Allison's mother back from the dark place her mind has gone. Allison doesn't trust her father, so why would she believe his stories about a long forgotten Irish people, the Tuatha de Danaan? But truths have a way of revealing themselves. Secrets will eventually surface. And Allison must learn to set aside her plan and work with her father if there is even a small chance it could restore her mother's sanity.
Laura Howard lives in New Hampshire with her husband and four children. Her obsession with books began at the age of 6 when she got her first library card. Nancy Drew, Sweet Valley High and other girly novels were routinely devoured in single sittings. Books took a backseat to diapers when she had her first child. It wasn’t until the release of a little novel called Twilight, 8 years later, that she rediscovered her love of fiction. Soon after, her own characters began to make themselves known. The Forgotten Ones is her first published novel.
Laura is also one of the lovely authors who will be attending the Stamford Author Event that I am working with. Look for more exciting posts coming up about, the event and the authors involved.

Thousands of years after the battle between the angels, when Lucifer was defeated by Michael in the Heavens, the war is still being fought onEarth by the humans who have their Power, the Angel's Power.
Allison Stevens is a 21 year old single mother who gets throwninto the middle of this battle when Damien, the Leader of the Rising, decides to hunt her down and kill her because he fears she is the descendant prophesied to save the world.
David, a member of the Order, takes Allison under his wing in order to show her the ropes, and hopefully groom her into being the one they have been waiting for. The only problem is that they start to grow more attached than a teacher/student relationship should allow.
But that isn't all. Damien wants to open the Seven Seals and bring about the apocalypse and it's up to Allison to not only save herself and her family, but save the worls, all while trying to keep her heart from breaking.
No problem... right?

Sounds like a really interesting series! Here's a little more from the fabulous Theresa M Jones herself on writing, her guilty pleasure, and the all important question, pepsi or coke!
1. First off, pepsi or coke? Answer wisely! lol
Coke!
2. What inspires your writing?
Many things!! Other books, my children, my life.
3. Do you have a routine or any quirks that you HAVE to do before you can write?
No. Well, I HAVE to have my kids taken care of. I cant write with my kids around, so they either have to be in school, or in bed, before I can write at all.
4. What are your guiltypleasures?
Chocolate for sure. And Sangria, Im a fruity wind kinda gal.
5. How do you handle rejection and/or bad reviews?
Well, so far I havent received a negative review (Knock on wood and Keep your fingers crossed for me) But, before I self-published, I did Query agents, and obviously was rejected... and in that situation, I decided it just wasnt meant to be yet. I know that I can only go up from here!! :)
6. Any words of advice for aspiring writers?
Write!! Make time to write. Write when you dont even know what to write about!
Also... what really works for me is making an outline (sometimes 2 or 3 outlines) before I even start writing a book. That may help.
7. If you could live in any period of time when would it be and why?
Here and now. I dont have the urge to do any kind of manual labor like they used to. I have no urge to live without air conditioning or radio. I rarely wear dresses and would hate to wear them all day. I would never be ok with being considered less than a man merely because I'm a woman. So... I like this time.
8. What is coming up next for you?
Well, I'm working on the final book in The Descendant Trilogy, which should be out late this year. AND I've also started a new YA series about Fairies.
9. If you could live anywhere in the world where would that be and why?
I love where I live. Proud to be an American and all that. Plus I live in Texas, and it's almost like Heaven on Earth (except in the summers when your skin practically melts off your body) I would love to visit Italy and Ireland though!!
10. Any last thoughts, words of wisdom etc you would like to share?
Thank you! Thank you for taking the time to interview me. And thank you to your readers who took the time to read this interview!!! I hope everyone enjoys my books! :)
Thank YOU Theresa for giving us some of your time, and for writing what sounds like an awesome series! Can't wait to read it! Also, big thanks for offering up your books for a giveaway, I know my readers will love the chance to win one of your books! Best of luck with your writing and look forward to having you back on Pretty in Pink Books and Reviews again in the future!
OK folks, I have an e-copy of Power and an e-copy of Hope to giveaway to 2 lucky readers! Giveaway will run through 05/06/2013 at 12a and winner will be announced later in the day on 5/6/13. Good luck! a Rafflecopter giveaway
