 Guest post by Rebecca L. Ethington

Falling in love for the first time…

The year was 1860. I was sitting on a bench with several of my acquaintances discussing the festivities for the ball that was to occur that weekend when I saw what can only be described as the most handsome gentleman in our small village. He was proper as he hung the banner for the ball, his brow covered with sweat as his muscles pulsed against his suspenders. 

I immediately inquired of my friends about who this handsome stranger may be, only to learn that he was the newly arrived brother of one of the most disagreeable girls in our circle. Alas! Was true love not to be?

But no, it seems we were destined. For he too, saw my beauty and sought me out for his own, the affections of which I heartily accepted…

Wait a second…

I am actually married to my first love. Of course there were guys in between, but my darling husband returned to me after several years… and as for before… I met him when I was fifteen and we were both volunteering at a local Living History Museum – so I guess the above story is correct, there was just probably a lot more giggling involved…

What power would you love to have?

Like a super power? Dude. I would love to fly. Terror of heights aside, flying would be pretty amazing. When I was little I used to have dreams about flying all the time. Flying over buildings, flying through the apartment I grew up in. I guess my subconscious mind really loves the idea of flight. Which, when you think about it, is pretty preposterous. I mean, there is no logical way to have one man flight occur.

But still, I would really love to fly. I guess I am a bigger believer in magic than I thought. 

Getting in the zone to write.

Getting in the writing zone, for me, is a lot easier then it probably should be. I have two little kids and my husband works upwards of sixty hours a week so a nanny is vital not only for my writing, but also my sanity. 

Once my nanny (AKA super helpful sister-in-law) shows up I grab some juice, a gallon of water, and retreat to my former toy room where I loudly jam to Imagine Dragons or Sanford and Sons and just write.

Once I get in the groove it is really hard for me to stop and more often than not I will have written about ten thousand words before my sister-in-law comes pounding on my door telling me that she has to leave.

I guess I zone out a little too much.

Ilyan’s whole life has been building up to one purpose. Protect the Silnỳ. He knows what he must do, and he has no doubt in his ability to do so.

But when his father’s magic removes Joclyn’s mind from her body, he is left protecting the shell of the one person he loves. Desperate to find a way to break her free of her prison, he makes a choice. And that one choice changes everything.

Now, Ilyan finds himself bound to Joclyn in a way that he never knew to be possible.

They say that blood is thicker than water, but Black Water burns, and Ilyan’s heart may not be strong enough to keep it pumping through his veins and give the girl he loves back into his brother’s care. Even if he can, it may not be safe to do so.
