Thirteen Reasons To Buy "Go Between" By Dayna Hart
As you can see,Dayna Hart has a book coming out. I still remember when she sent this to me. We'd exchanged a few manuscripts back and forth. This one floored me. It is AMAZING. But on to the reasons why YOU should give this a chance.
1. Anne Cain's Cover
I love Anne. She's one of the best cover artists in the business and she NAILED this one.
2. The Unique Concept
Dayna has always wanted to go with the tag line "Weird" but I think unique, complex and AWESOME work for it too.
3. Her Attention To Detail
I walked through the making of this book. She's such a stickler for detail and word smithing. It's a pleasure to read the result.
4. Dell
He's the reason I would LOVE some fairy sex. Mmmmmm yummy.
5. Claire
She's REAL. You know how you read about people and think "NO ONE would do THAT." Claire is actually someone I could relate to. Well, other than finding a fairy in her living room.
6. It's The First In A Series
The Curtain Torn series is the first in a long line of fabulous concepts culminating in something called "The Epic". See, one of the nice things about knowing the author is knowing that there's more to come.
7. Dayna Rocks.
Okay, so this might not be a good reason for YOU to buy the book, but take my word for it. She does. And it's totally worth it.
8. It's A Story To Get Lost In
One of the things I love about this one is that I couldn't put it down. I read from beginning to the end and didn't stop to warm up my coffee. I forgot to critique it. I forgot everything but Dell and Claire and the world Dayna created.
9. It Inspired Me To Write Fantasy
Reading "Go Between" (and Crystal Jordan's "Revenant") inspired me to write "Fires Of Passion which was one of my favorite books to write. Though I'd never tried it before, I love to read fantasy.
10. Its Release Is Not The Only Thing She's Expecting
That's right. If you haven't heard, she's having baby number four. She's an awesome mom, so I'm thrilled for her. So, do it for the children.
11. There's No Hot Sex And I STILL Love It
One of the things I love about Dayna is that she does Big Picture. Rather than have hot sex and instant resolution for her characters, she makes 'em wait. Over the next few books, she continues to add and tweak their relationship. *Happy Sigh*. I lurrrrve her.
12. She's One To Watch
Someday, you'll be able to say that you bought this book when it first came out. As one of her first fans, I'll be in the inner circle when she gets to be Robert Jordan big.
13. Dayna Hart Writes FANTASY
When you read this, you'll see how much she loves this. Writing what I love makes my stories better and she's no different. Her love of this genre is in every word you read. Give it a try and you'll see what I mean.
“Go Between” by Dayna Hart
Coming August 14th from Samhain Publications
Between two races that hate each other, at the doorway between two worlds, can Claire find the strength to be the emissary they all need?
Book One of The Curtain Torn series.
Halfway through her twenties, her divorce, and a bottle of rye, Claire opens her birthday present—a “pressed fairy” book.
One of the fairies is neither pressed, nor a picture. He’s the sinfully sexy Dell, who’s been trapped inside the book for twenty years. The moment Claire frees him, goblins attack her house. Dell and Claire’s only option is to use a “Between”—a rift between their worlds—to escape into the land of Fae.
There, Claire discovers the elven queen, Eliane, has a mission for her—one that has her keeping secrets from Dell. And ousting the goblins from her home is only the start.
