Sandra Cox - a new release and a great contest!

Julia has been kind enough to let me blog and chat with her blogger buds today. Thanks, Julia. (My pleasure, Sandra!)

I’m out stumping for my current release Moon Watchers. Moon Watchers is a crossover YA, second in the hunter series.

What is a crossover YA. A Crossover YA is a paranormal with the lead character or characters in their late teens. This genre bridges the gap between young adult readers and adult readers and can fit into either readership. Yes, the heroine and/or hero are possibly younger than we are-unless you’re a vampire-but their story takes place outside the classroom and the situations they deal with are on an adult level.

Moon Watchers is the story of Jolene Sayer, a werewolf hunter who finds herself in a rather unique situation.

Here’s the blurb and excerpt.

Blurb:
Some people think being a Were hunter is weird. For me it’s perfectly normal. What I see as odd is my attraction to the hunkalicious Braden Knight. Why? I think he’s a vampire.

Excerpt:

Braden had been attracted to the luscious Jolene since the first moment he’d set eyes on her. She reminded him of the old song by Dolly Parton, the one about a sensuous siren. That’s Jolene, in a very earthy kick-ass fashion.

He stared at said siren. He could smell her fear, sharp and tangy, and fought back the urge to taste that always lived with him. Like a recovering alcoholic he beat back the craving for hot sweet blood. He’d taken a vow. One he refused to break. If there were a Vampires Anonymous, I’d probably be president, he thought wryly.

And if the blood craving wasn’t bad enough, his nineteen year old body responded with a kick of desire just as acute as his lust for the warm red liquid that flowed through her. It would be so easy to give in and satisfy both.

He could do it in a heartbeat…her heartbeat. He could hear it thump, thump, thumping against her ribs. It stirred him unbelievably. She might fight him at first but it would be temporary. Women could never resist him.

He took a deep breath and thought of all the misery he’d caused in his long and checkered past. His desire cooled. And while her blood still smelled sweet, it no longer tempted him.
