Here it is!
"How do you find freedom when all hope is lost?"
When Hana’s mom is diagnosed with the mutation, she is denied the medication that might save her life. Fischer, a medic at the hospital, implies there are people who can help—except Hana’s not sure she can trust him; Fischer is involved in a religious group, and religion has been outlawed for the last hundred years. Hana embarks on a dangerous journey, seeking the answers Fischer insists are available. When the truth is uncovered does Hana stick to what she knows? Or does she join the rebellion, taking a stand against an untrustworthy society?
An emotional and unique take on a world of haves vs. have-nots that will pull you in from the very first page. ~Kelly Hashway, author of Touch of Death

Book Description:
How do you survive the internship from hell?
Don't fall in love.
Ivy thought being a reporter-in-training at the Independent Gazette would be her dream summer job. Little did she know, interviewing Eric, a landscaper with a heart of gold, would derail her plans. It turns out Ivy's boss, Lauren, has been eying his chiseled physique for quite some time.
But at twenty-four, Eric already has a tragic past, one that he is still reeling from. Even though his ordeal turned him into some sort of local celebrity, it's been a while since he's shared his bed with anyone. When he comes to Ivy's rescue out of the blue, it's not long before the two of them start seeing each other behind Lauren's back. When they get caught, Ivy's journey toward a college degree is jeopardized and her relationship with Eric is severely put to the test.
Career versus love? In the end, a shocking turn of events provides Ivy with a revelation she never saw coming.
Excerpt:
If only I were open to the possibility of romance, but I’m not. There’s no way I can be. There are circumstances that can’t be wished away or ignored. My heart’s not ready—not yet. And while this absolutely gorgeous girl has wandered into my life, I’m not going to act on it. It’s too soon.
I stride into my shop, gently placing her on the counter. Her feet are bleeding and she looks like she could use a drink of water. She’s covered in dust from the road but she looks adorable sitting there. I don’t know what it’s like to be in a scenario like this with a girl. I’m used to things being straightforward and laid out before me. This looks like something I could get easily lost in if I’m not careful.
We still haven’t said a word to each other, and I hate to break the silence but it can’t be avoided. “Rest here a minute. I’ll be right back.”
Her hand lingers on my upper arm, her thumb massaging by bicep. I exhale heavily, trying desperately to clear my head. Her touch is stirring things inside me I haven’t experienced in quite some time. Emotions I never thought I’d feel again. “Thank you,” she whispers, her eyes never leaving mine.
“No problem,” I try to say as casually as possible. She’s looking at me like I’m her knight in shining armor and I don’t want her to get the wrong idea. I can’t go down that road again. I just can’t. My soul still isn’t fully healed from the last time. I can’t trust myself in these kinds of situations. I need to back away as gracefully as I can.

Nice covers! The first one reminded me of computer games.
ReplyDeleteReally? I don't play computer games so I'm not up on what they look like.
DeleteThanks so much, Kelly!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteMust add Katie's book to my list of to read books. Good luck with it Katie.
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteSounds amazing! Definitely like something I'll enjoy :)
ReplyDeleteI've read it and it's great.
DeleteThanks for the phenomenal coverage of TAKE ME NOW over the past week, Kelly! *DOUBLE HUGS*
ReplyDeleteYou're so welcome! :)
DeleteCongrats to Faith and Katie!
ReplyDeleteYes, I'll second that.
DeleteThe first was very interesting to me, although I was puzzled by the fact that the cover seems half medieval and half punk (the girl's wearing heavy makeup) but the premise doesn't sound like either. Cover ideas are interesting, huh? :-)
ReplyDeleteThe world Katie created is in the future but it's a much simpler time, almost medieval. So that may be why the cover was done that way.
DeleteI like the concept of haves vs. have-nots. great blurb!
ReplyDeleteBoth books sounds great! I am very curious about both storylines. Thanks for sharing (and great blurb). :)

Deleteso many books too little time!
ReplyDeleteI hear you!
DeleteWhat an interesting concept, having a mutation but not being able to get the medication to treat it. I hope everything turns out all right for Hana's mom. Some very nice covers too.
ReplyDeleteKatie's book is really good.
