Just
settling down to wind up the month of January, but we've got a book blitz for
you today, it's Domination - Bonfire Chronicles by Imogen Rose. It falls into
the supernatural/thriller/horror genres.
Here's
a look a the cover by: Phatpuppyart
Book
Description:
Years
of hard work preceded her entry to the Oval Office. She attended the right prep
schools and right colleges. She made sure to make all the right contacts,
ingratiating herself into the right circles. But all those rights hadn’t been
enough.
In
the end, she’d needed her mother.
And
now it was time to repay that debt.Excerpt:
There
are no roads, tunnels, or bridges linking Earth to Beyond. Ships, airplanes, or
rockets can’t transport us there. The only passage is through the Emerald
Portal, the gateway between our two worlds. And the only one who can grant
access to the portal is the queen of Beyond—my boyfriend’s mom.
My
name is Cordelia Hammer and I’m a demon. Not the human, teen variety, but an
actual supernatural. My father is the demon sovereign of Paris. Each city has
its own council made up of royal representatives who oversee the supernatural
activity of their kind within their jurisdiction. Currently, I’m apprenticing
for King Sebastian, the demon sovereign of London.
As
I wondered what Jagger was talking about, digesting his words — Mother insists
that the new fae princess must be born at the palace — a green mist appeared in
the corner of the bedroom of the Seattle hotel suite where Jagger and I were
staying.
“I
suggest we both throw on some clothes,” Jagger muttered, picking up his black
jeans from the floor. “It would be unfortunate to appear in front of my mother
in our birthday suits.”
“Huh?”
“Hurry
up, Cordelia. We only have a few minutes before we get sucked into that
portal.”
“Is
that the Emerald Portal?” I looked at it in awe as the mist morphed into a
tunnel. I took a step toward it to peek inside.
“No!”
Jagger pulled me back. “Get dressed, please.”
“Into
what?” I had no idea what the weather was like in Beyond or whether an audience
with the queen of Beyond required formal attire. Jagger had thrown on his
favorite black jeans and white T-shirt, his black motorcycle jacket in hand.
“Anything,”
he said. “Something comfortable. And make sure it’s very warm as it’s always
cold in Beyond—freezing, in fact. I’ll call GRIP in the meantime to let them
know that I won’t be in today.”
GRIP—the
Global Retrieval and Intelligence Program—that’s where Jagger worked. GRIP had
been founded following the attacks on the international supernatural
communities during Code Uprising to monitor and curtail any subversive
activity. It had become the authoritative supernatural agency regulating the
global communities. Well, except for the subterranean troll population who
seemed to be completely unregulated. Jagger was part of the GRIP Tactical
Combat Force. I was pretty sure that they wouldn’t be happy with him taking a
day off right in the middle of the most critical time in modern supernatural
history, with a noncompliant supernatural moving into the White House. Plus,
just days ago, we’d captured Katerina Miller—the monster responsible for the
last spate of global massacres—and were waiting to question her.
