Psychic Encounter While Antique-Shopping Inspires Novel @AdriennedeWolfe
By Adrienne deWolfe
I got the idea for my Historical Romance novel, Seduced By
An Angel, when I bumped into a psychic at an antique store.
She was wandering around the showroom, “touching” furniture
and reporting the various scenes from the past that she psychically observed
(weddings, children reading school books, couples dancing at Christmas parties,
etc.) She explained that she was
learning to fine-tune her gift of “psychometry.” When she touched man-made
objects, she could see their owners “through time” and peek into their lives.
I thought, “Oh my gosh, I HAVE to write a story about that!”
So in Seduced By An Angel, outlaw Jesse Quaid (who is part
Cherokee,) has a dream from Great Spirit that Sera Jones can clear his name of
murder. Jesse can’t imagine how a 19-year-old preacher’s daughter can help him,
until he learns that Sera has visions about the future and the past.
Because Sera is terrified of her visions, Jesse has to teach
her how to accept her gift before he can persuade her to help him clear his
name.
Seduced By an Angel is part of my award-winning Velvet Lies
Series (which is on sale.) If you like Historical Romance novels with bad-boy
heroes, adorable baby animals, mischievous orphans, and a slice of Victorian
America, you’ll enjoy this bestselling series. Here’s an excerpt from Seduced
By An Angel.
Excerpt
Seduced By An Angel
Book 3, Velvet Lies Series
By Adrienne deWolfe
(Set-up: Sera is in a “haunted” part of the woods, where she
is hiding from outlaws. While
communicating with a Native American ghost, named Hiawassee, Sera begins to
have visions.)
Sera was walking behind a waterfall in a kaleidoscopic haze
of color. Through the cloud of rainbows that swirled around her, she could see
isolated pockets of horrific scenes: Jesse getting lynched. Or shot. Or
bludgeoned.
*From any one point in time, there's a minimum of three
futures,* the ghost of Jesse’s grandmother whispered in her ear. *You can stop
the madness. But first, you must stop the outlaws.*
Sera felt numb. Insanely calm. She didn't doubt her visions.
She didn't question Hiawassee. She merely followed the Medicine Woman's spirit
as it glided before her, sweeping along a tunnel.
Flickering water reflections danced upon the walls and the
roof, which was rife with orange lichens and green algae. Some 20 paces ahead,
she could see the tunnel's end through the mystical, silvery glow of
Hiawassee's body.
*We are forbidden to interfere,* the ghost told her.
*We?*
*All of us.*
Sera frowned and halted beside Hiawassee, squinting into the
sunlight at the tunnel's end. She gaped at the scene that stretched before her.
Floating in and out of the falls, perched upon the cliff ledges, swinging from
the trees, and splashing in the river were hundreds of ghosts. Most of them
were women and children.
Ywahoo Falls.
*Sacred Cherokee burial ground,* Hiawassee confirmed mildly.
Sera nodded uncomfortably. The legend was known to her. Some
70 years ago, Cherokee women had journeyed with their children to this spot,
rendezvousing under the full moon. Under the leadership of Comblossom, daughter
of the great war chief, Doublehead, hundreds of innocents had gathered here,
accompanied by only a handful of braves.
The women and their children had intended to walk the 125
miles to a school in Chattanooga, where they had been promised protection and a
White man's education. But the Cherokees had been betrayed. A contingent of
Tennessee soldiers had intercepted the innocents at Ywahoo Falls and massacred
them.
*You were barely six years old,* Hiawassee told Sera gently.
*Jesse, he was eight. You were meant to find each other in that lifetime, too.
And you did—for the last few minutes. He tried to protect you.*
Tears rolled down Sera's cheeks. *Why?* she whispered. *Why
must there be so much hatred?*
*Men are allowed free will,* Hiawassee answered. *You, too,
will choose between compassion and hatred.
Choose wisely.*
Book Description
Seduced By An Angel
By Adrienne deWolfe
Kentucky belle Seraphina Jones craves a dashing stranger
worth kissing. When she spies her handsome, half-naked hired hand at the
riverbank, she thinks her dreams of romance have come true. But this Texican is
wanted for murder.
Jesse Quaid can't let Sera's sweet kisses distract him from
rendezvousing with Cass, a childhood friend, to clear his name of a crime he
didn't commit.
But then a case of mistaken identity turns Cass into Jesse's
deadliest rival for Sera's heart.
Now, Sera must find a way to end the feud before the man she
loves is lost forever.

#TheRedcliffeNovels - A New Novel is Growing!
Ok, so I have been a bit quiet during the summer
holidays. My children have been home from school, we have been busy with family
activities, catching up with friends, shopping for school uniform, and all the
other stuff that goes with family life. But somehow, I found time to finish the
first draft of my fifth Redcliffe novel. Hooray! Heart of the Vampire (A Redcliffe
Novel) book 5 is shaping up pretty well so far, and I am very pleased
with it.
But here is even more exciting news: I have the seeds
of a new novel beginning to take hold. That’s right, Redcliffe book 6 is about to be written. I haven’t put anything
down on paper yet. My process is to allow the story time to unfold in my mind,
until it bursts out onto the page. I am hoping to save it for NaNoWriMo, and
then get the first draft written in one month. But we will see what happens in
other areas of my life. I don’t yet have a title, but it must be something to
do with the werewolf… Do you have a suggestion?

#TheRedcliffeNovels Spin-Off: The Darkness of Love #ASMSG
If you enjoyed reading The Redcliffe Novels, perhaps
you would like to see the story of our favourite bad-boy vampire Marcus Scott?
He wasn’t always a suave, sexy businessman…
The Darkness of Love - A Victorian vampire lord seeks
an heir for his estate in this English Gothic novel with passion and flair.
Lord Gregory
Stockton is a powerful and respected businessman embracing the modern era of
the Victorian industrial revolution. He has a grand and beautiful manor house
complete with a repertoire of servants, and his young wife is charming,
attractive, and the perfect lady to his gentleman. The only thing they lack is
an heir to the family estate. Lord Gregory knows he can never produce a child,
for he is a vampire, although his wife and servants know nothing of his
secrets. There are other ways to provide heirs for his estate, however, and
Lord Gregory has noticed the romantic attraction between his wife and the young
stable hand Marcus Scott. He hatches a plan to bring the would-be lovers
together, and then cruelly tear them apart as he continues to build his empire
and secure his power base in the south of England. The humans are pawns in the
vampire’s game of lust, love and control.

*Cover Reveal!* Mystical Circles by S.C. Skillman #ASMSG
Book
Cover Reveal: New Luminarie Edition of Mystical
Circles, the Prequel to A Passionate Spirit
I’m delighted to announce that I can now show you the Cover Reveal for my new Luminarie edition of Mystical Circles. It’s been a long
and sometimes fraught journey with the cover designers but I’m very excited
with the final result!
Read
two reviews here, both from Young Adult authors:
Intense Psychological Drama in a Beautiful Setting
First of all, I fell in love with the beautiful house
where the story is set, and wanted to go there immediately! Against this
backdrop, a tense and intriguing psychological drama is worked out, with new
twists and revelations every day. The complex and often damaged characters
gathered together react and interact more often than not in ways that surprise
and sometimes shock, and you are kept guessing about the outcomes of some of
the relationships until the very end. This was an intense and compelling story
with many twists and turns in the plot to keep you reading. (Eleanor Watkins,
YA author )
Psychological Suspense That Doesn’t Disappoint
The scene is an idyllic Cotswold farmhouse, where a
mixed bag of needy people live in a community. Enter journalist Juliet, seeking
to save her younger sister from the clutches of what she considers a cult, with
its charismatic and enigmatic leader, Craig. Like Juliet, we are drawn into the
claustrophobic lives of the characters in this “Wheel of Love” and find
ourselves unable to leave. As the emotional and psychological tensions crackle
and ignite against each other, it’s like watching a slow-motion train crash of
the conflicting personalities, desires, jealousies and hurts. If you like your
drama filled with psychological suspense, with a hint of the paranormal, then
you won’t be disappointed. I’m pleased to see there’s a sequel, A Passionate
Spirit. (Philip S Davies, YA author)
So
without more ado here is the book cover for Mystical
Circles
Blurb:
“Hi, you in crowded, stressed old London from me in
the peaceful, perfect Cotswolds. Massive change of plan. I’m in love. Craig’s
gorgeous, sexy, intelligent. Paradise here. Staying forever.”
Juliet, concerned that her younger sister has fallen
in love with the charismatic Craig, leader of the Wheel of Love, sets off for
the Cotswolds to investigate, fearful that Zoe has become entangled with a
religious cult.
She arrives at Craig’s community hoping to rescue Zoe.
But intrigues, liaisons and relationships flare and flourish or fizzle out
quickly within this close circle, and despite her reservations, Juliet is drawn
into the Wheel of Love… with completely unforeseen consequences.
The new Luminarie
edition of Mystical Circles is
available as from 5 September 2017. It will be available online and in all good
bookstores.
And
I am doing a special promotion for a limited period for UK readers of my blog SC Skillman Author. Copies of the paperback
can be pre-ordered direct from me via the Contact Me section of my blog, at 20%
discount from the RRP of £8.99, and free of p& p. There will be 10 copies
of the book available through this promotion to the first 10 purchasers, and
all I ask is that you post your review on Amazon as soon as you’ve read the
book!

Nefarious Volume One is permafree on Instafreebie. It
is an erotic horror short story. Custom illustrated.
Blurb:

Talcott Henderson wants to live again.
A centuries-old vampire, he longs to destroy his maker
and become human once more. In order to do so, he must turn another. While he
sets his sights on Elyse Delafayette, Samuel Quartermaine sets his on Talcott.
Will Talcott succeed in convincing Elyse to join the ranks of the undead before
Samuel can stop him?
"Is this how the fox feels when he confronts the
tender rabbit? Or the osprey when he swoops in for a kill so calculated and
unfair? My fingertips tingled in delight."
***This is dark erotica, so mature audiences only,
please. ***
Nefarious Volume Two: Honor the Suffering is
historical fiction/horror novelette. It is on Amazon, enrolled in KU. I also
have a free preview of it on Instafreebie.
Blurb:
Is eternal guilt the price of human empathy?
While the bombs rain overhead, Talcott Henderson and a
group of fellow soldiers huddle in the cratered ground beneath the German front
lines. Through the never-ending din of enemy fire, the voracious, blood-soaked
machine of war haunts Talcott. Memories claw at him; kill or be killed, eat or
be eaten. In the bowels of the earth a specter appears, and offers him an
eternal life free of guilt.
But what is the cost of an unmarred soul?
*Includes custom illustrations
*Cover art by Jessica Dueck
Nefarious Volume Three is scheduled for release August
18.
Interested parties can find snippets, information and
links to when it is published, as well as information on where readers can

Can evil consume innocence?
Can the one who walks the line between both it?

her, she rebukes him. Although he seems sincere, she fears he is not.
Samuel Quartermaine, embodying darkness and light,
races against time to save her from the clutches of the undead.
Will she let him love her?
The third installment of the Nefarious series, The
World is Our Exile is a paranormal erotic romance novella set in a steampunk

In Defense of the Struggle That’s Real For Authors @moncriefelle #ASMSG #amwriting
Hey, you, the pale one, bags under your
eyes that could rival a blue light special, crumbs on your chest and a crick in
your neck from hunching over a keyboard. Do your eyes feel like sandpaper yet?
For a sedentary job, it sure hurts. Seen the sun lately? Friends stopped
calling long ago.
#Thestruggleisreal.
That’s what this is, and most people don’t
want to do it because it comes dressed in ripped and stained yoga pants and
looks a hell of a lot like work.
Maybe you are lucky. Your loved ones are
supportive. Even then, it’s a lonely road—a long hard slog into a winter night
without a coat. Or maybe you are like me, with a masochistic streak as deep as
the scars on my inner wrists, and this is like coming home.
So, for those of you who’ve chosen the
narrow path, the authorpreneurial road less traveled, a few words of advice and
encouragement:
1. Attitude
The first thing you need
to fix is your attitude. Life isn’t fair. Do you understand? Life isn’t fair.
Bad things happen to good people, good things happen to bad people, and there
is a whole lot of neutral in between. The fickle finger of fate points to all.
You can’t control ANYTHING in life except your ATTITUDE.
What you must do, is work
hard, take risks, and keep at it. This will build your confidence, and you
must, you absolutely must reward yourself for doing this REGARDLESS of the
outcome. In many instances, the outcome is beyond your control. I would be
remiss to not state that there are certain things you can do, of course, to
affect a positive outcome. But as they say, sh*t happens. Your attitude is the
only thing you can control.
So, when the friends quit
calling, the family doesn’t want to read your work, you get a one-star review,
your attitude and your confidence will shield you and give you the strength to
keep working.
2. Be prolific
You need to set a goal—a
wordcount, page, or chapter count per day and stick to it. This will become a
habit. Habits are hard to break. Start small. It’s like putting a pebble in a
bucket of water. Eventually you will get enough pebbles to create spillover.
Don’t worry if it is ‘not good enough’ or worse, utter dross. The point is to
play a numbers game and play it well. You do that by being prolific. You do
this way before you start editing, and before you start researching and honing
your craft. You have to have a lump of clay to work with in order to make a
vase.
3. Learn
Research, take workshops,
read and read and read everyone more talented and more knowledgeable than you.
Join writing groups, online or in person, and learn from those who have had
some success at this game. Keep your mouth shut and check your ego at the door.
Pay attention, be a sponge and then go implement the things you’ve learned into
your own work.
4. Many roads lead to Rome
They’re dark, ridden with
potholes, unsavory bandits, covered in brambles, but they are legion. There are
many ways to do this job. Enroll in KU or go wide . . . there is no hard answer
here. You have to do what is best for you and what is going to work for your
specific book(s).
Don’t get roped in by
“rules” that aren’t really rules. Most rules are more like “guidelines.” Again,
if you protect your attitude, hone your craft, and are prolific, you’ll find
success. It can happen overnight, it can more likely take years, but it does
happen if you don’t give up.
5. Ditch your ‘friends’
Yeah, I said it. You’re
trying to build something here, and the most important element of that is your
attitude. It’s nigh on impossible to keep your attitude in check if you hear a
lot of naysaying. Anyone who doesn’t support you that you aren’t forced to live
with, you need to cut down on your time with that person. Or better yet, wipe
the slate clean and get some new friends. There are seven billion people on the
planet, and a lot of them are supportive. Go hang out with them.
Good luck, stay warm out there, and happy
writing.
