About Under Her Skin

She’s lucky he’s a charmer…

Lindi Parker works hard at being human, not an easy task for a weresnake. She has no desire to search for others like her—until a new case changes everything. When Lindi learns that she she’s not the only shapeshifter in the world, she realizes she might be next on a killer’s list.

In order to save herself and the abused children she works with, she will have to team up with Dr. Kade Nevala, a member of the shifter tribe responsible for eradicating weresnakes—and the most attractive man Lindi’s ever met. Even more terrifying, she’ll need to embrace her serpent side, a choice that has enormous consequences for Lindi, and for everyone around her.

Leilani’s mother has never set foot in her school until the day she whisks her children out of their Pacific Island country, without their father and without explanation. Eighteen years later, Leilani just wants to leave the past behind, move forward.

She has settled peacefully in California and like her long-lost father, she heals people. But her tranquil existence is disturbed one evening.

A computer nerd and culinary whiz with a biting sense of humor, Justin is brokenhearted from the loss of his girlfriend who has left him after seven years. All he wants is to drown his sorrows. But he finds more trouble than he’s looking for when thugs assault him.

On her way home from work, Leilani sees the assault. An ace with a gun, she rescues him.

Weeks later, they meet again and find themselves attracted to each other. Fearing Justin is on the rebound, or has a rescuer complex, Leilani doesn’t want to get involved.

But Leilani cannot deny her feelings. As they begin to fall in love, her past comes back to haunt her.

A friend of her father arrives with news which forces her mother to reveal a shocking, shameful secret–the truth about the role Leilani’s father played in a deadly political web.

Can Leilani deal with the truth? But hero or villain, he is her father and only she and Justin can rescue him from the island she’d left long ago.

At the core of this women’s fiction is an Asian woman-white man interracial romance spun with international political intrigue and a young woman’s acceptance of her past. Welcome Reluctant Stranger is Book 3 in a family saga. In three tales of loss, love, second chances, and finding one’s way, three strong women cope with issues contemporary women face.

SPR Independent Woman Authors 2015 bronze awardee Evy Journey has always been fascinated with words and seduced by beautiful prose. She loves Jane Austen and invokes her spirit every time she spins tales of love, loss, and finding one’s way–stories she interweaves with mystery or intrigue and sets in various locales.

She’s lived and traveled in many places, from Asia to Europe. Often she’s ended up in Paris, though–her favorite place in the world. She’s become something of an observer-wanderer. A flâneuse, as the French would say.

The mind is what fascinates her most. So, armed with a Ph.D., she chose to work in mental health, researching and developing programs. And writing like an academic. Not a good thing if you want to sound like a normal person. So, she’s written fiction (happy fiction) as an antidote.

 

A silent call for help began the friendship between two children. A bond unlike any other kept them together.

Finn was just a kid when he first heard Snow’s voice inside his head, two children in need of a friend and finding one in mysterious strangers. Never meeting in person, the pair grows up as opposites – Finn the boy who loves to get in trouble and works for the toughest drug lord in town, Snow the good, sheltered girl who wants to be a doctor.

The bond built upon a strange ability to hear each other’s thoughts is threatened when Snow is abducted, her screams for help consuming Finn’s mind until they disappear completely, submerging him in a terrifying silence he’s never known before. Now it’s up to Finn to save her, led only by Snow’s sporadic thoughts as she floats in and out of consciousness.

But the search for Snow leads him to a truth he isn’t prepared to face, a truth that has the power to unravel his entire world. The people he thought he knew, the life he thought he’d made, the best friend he thought he could protect – all point toward a brutal reality should he fail.

And as Finn struggles to find Snow before she slips away, he must fight to keep that reality out, lest he let the chaos in.

 

Behind the Chaos:

“The Silent Sounds of Chaos” was a lot of fun to write, if not sad and stressful at times. I wanted to share a little piece of my writing experience with you. I hope you enjoy these interesting facts about the book and its most memorable characters. And yes, there are seven facts for a reason …

1. Finn’s name is a two-part inspiration. In the book, his nickname is inspired by Huck Finn, the boy who went off on adventures and always got in trouble. But in real life, Finn is … the name of my cat. I also have a cat named Malachi, and “Malachi” makes his appearance in my fantasy novel, “The Never.” It’s only fair Finn gets his fictional counterpart as well!

2. “The Silent Sounds of Chaos” was originally inspired, in part, by the movie “Taken.” I wanted to write a book about a girl who is abducted, and the boy who would do anything to save her. When I began writing it, though, the story took a major twist and turned into something much, much different, complete with telepathy and hidden backstories.

3. Yellow is an important color throughout the novel. I won’t say why, but something to keep in mind!

4. I came up with the title, The Silent Sounds of Chaos, years before the idea for the actual book. I was waiting for the perfect story to fit what is currently my favorite book title.

5. DU is one of the cruelest, most vile characters I’ve ever created. In the actual book you don’t see a lot of that cruelty (though it is hinted at), but knowing what I know of his backstory, he was one of the hardest characters for me ever to write. I really, really don’t like him. And I hope you despise him too!

6. “The Silent Sounds of Chaos” originally had a completely different ending. That ending was scrapped after I talked it out with my husband and he so gallantly stated the entire book was pointless if that’s how I planned to end it. After getting over my initial pouting, I realized he was right (don’t tell him I said that), and reworked the entire book to fit what I think is the perfect ending.

7. “The Silent Sounds of Chaos” is the first book I’ve ever written from a male POV. It was definitely a challenge, getting into a guy’s head and trying to make him sound genuine while also fitting my vision for the character. Overall, I’m really happy with Finn and I hope you are too!

Excerpt

“You’re all keyed up,” he murmurs before dropping a kiss on my lips.

Seeing no point in denying it, I nod.

“It’s like the first day of school.”

“Except you already know everyone,” he counters.

“Still a big day,” I remind him.

Smiling, he traces my lower lip with his thumb.

“You’re right,” he says. “It is. You know what I bet would make you feel better?”

Turning my head, I look up at him. This man is so gorgeous it’s ridiculous. Every single time I’m near him, I get butterflies.

“Some Vitamin D?”

His eyes widen before he bursts out laughing.

“I was going to say we should watch some TV, but if you need your vitamins…”

“Yeah?”

“Fuck yeah,” he assures me.

Since the first night we made love, we’ve been at it every day. The morning after, I sensed he was going to reinstate the no sex rule, but I was not having it. Before he could get the words out, I dropped to my knees and sucked his cock until he was with me one hundred percent. Once he was, I climbed onto him and rode him like a madwoman. There’s been no resistance from him ever since.

Lifting my hand, I put it on his knee and start gliding it up his leg. When I get to the front of his jeans, I undo the button and the zipper before pulling him out of his boxer briefs. He lets out a guttural sound when I run my thumb over the tip of his cock, and I smile at him as he leans in for a kiss. Every one of his kisses is like a dose of euphoria to me. I hum as I lean in closer and let him dominate my mouth.

He makes a sound of annoyance when I pull away, but I’ve got what I want in my hand and I mean to have it. Sliding down the seat, I get to my knees on the floor. His fingers slide into my hair and his nostrils flare as he looks at me.

“When I said Vitamin D, I meant you could bounce on top of it like a good little girl,” he groans.

Leaning forward, I lick the tip of his dick as I stare at him. When I pull back, I give him an innocent smile.

“I need to take my vitamins orally right now,” I murmur.

Sticking my tongue out, I start licking up and down his length as I revel in the sound of his heavy breathing. In the time we’ve been together, I’ve learned how much he loves eye contact when I give him head, so my eyes stay on his as I work his shaft.

“Such a good little cocksucker,” he says huskily.

His lifestyle. His rules.

Is she willing to risk her heart to play his game?

Guitarist Cole Hayes learned early that falling in love is the easiest way to lose. Determined never to go down that road, he sealed his heart off, numbing himself with erotic and sensual pleasures–with men and women alike. The rules were simple: group sex only and never one-on-one.

It’s all so simple until he meets Devon Bannister, the beautiful director shooting the documentary on his band. Suddenly, she’s all he can think about. Neither can deny the attraction and desire between them.

Although Devon is open to exploring Cole’s lifestyle, for the first time in his life, he finds himself reluctant to share.

How can he own all of her, if he’s only willing to give half of himself?
