Blurb:
She may learn to live for love…if vengeance doesn’t kill her first.
Plix spends her lonely, gritty life trying to solve the mysteries her father left behind. Armed with a variety of cybernetic enhancements and a talent for getting into places she shouldn’t be, she searches for clues to his murder-and who’s responsible for poisoning her city.
Waking up on a street corner with her brain wiring fried to a crisp, she figures she must have gotten close this time. There’s only one man she trusts to pull her back from the brink: a tuner who can retrieve the evidence hidden deep in the recesses of her mind. A man she dares not let too …

Guest Post: Dealing with the Devil by Misty Evans + Giveaway
Please welcome to BLI the fabulous and prolific Misty Evans. She stops by today to talk about some of her life experiences and their influence on her writing. Like the gifted writer that she is, she can find inspiration in just about anything; even the biblical stories she grew up on. And in her written works, good and evil can be all relative!
I was raised in a Southern Baptist household and cut my teeth on Old Testament stories full of the Devil and damnation. Having an active imagination and a strong desire to find good in everyone, I was particularly taken by the story about Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden. To me, it was a love story, maybe the greatest ever told. Adam gave up heaven on Earth to be with Eve after she ate from the apple. He could …

Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder
Laying hands upon the injured and dying, Avry of Kazan absorbs their wounds and diseases into herself. But rather than being honored for her skills, she is hunted. Healers like Avry are accused of spreading the plague that has decimated the Fifteen Realms, leaving the survivors in a state of chaos.
Stressed and tired from hiding, Avry is abducted by a band of rogues who, shockingly, value her gift above the golden bounty offered for her capture. Their leader, an enigmatic captor-protector with powers of his own, is unequivocal in his demands: Avry must heal a plague-stricken prince—leader of a campaign against her people. As they traverse the daunting Nine Mountains, beset by mercenaries and magical dangers, Avry must decide who is worth healing and what is worth dying for. Because the price of peace may well be her …

For our parts, we couldn’t agree more! Stay tuned after the post for a readerly treat from Amanda.
First of all, I’d like to thank BLI for hosting me today! You guys are great! ☺
Since the time my kids were little, I’ve told them, “You don’t have to like everyone. But you do have to treat everyone with kindness and compassion.”
During the holidays, everyone adopts a “Goodwill toward your fellow man” attitude. And while this is wonderful, I believe that we should practice this philosophy year-round, rather than one month out of the year. And so, …
