KINDLE FIRE GIVEAWAY: RETURN by JA Huss

CHAPTER ONE – LUCAN: Amelia Habitat You would not think that an artificial intelligence would have a scent, but Amelia does. It’s intoxicating. Her apartments in the top floor of my home smell only of her. I’m not even sure I could describe it, but the closest thing would be space. Space has a smell. It’s not something you can discern directly because there’s no air in space and scents need to be carried on a current. And I can’t smell it on myself, not even when I come back from space because I’m encased in timeshift shell. But I smell it on Amelia because she stands out in the dark nothing when she’s thinking. I always know when she’s in a pensive mood because the smell of space permeates everything. It clings to her even when I know she’s not been outside the habitat for weeks. She smells like… Read more »

$50 GIVEAWAY: I Am Just Junco Omnibus Books 1-3 by JA Huss

EXCERPT FROM CLUTCH BOOK ONE Tier throws down his rifle, takes a deep breath and looks at Moju. “My charge is out, give me all the grenades.” Moju leans heavily against the wall, fishes around in his pockets, and pulls out three canisters and hands them over to Tier. And that’s when I hear the clicking from the hallway behind us. “Shit! They’re back!” From the hazy cloud of thick dust a massive amalgamation of bot parts appears. I scream and both Moju and I train our rifles on the thing that comes towards us. We blast it back a few paces and it’s forced to reassemble. I steal a look at Tier and he’s already pulling the pin on the first grenade and running back towards me yelling, “Fire in the hole!” Moju dives for the corner as Tier grabs me and yanks me to the floor. The blast… Read more »

GIVEAWAY and SNEAK PEEK: RETURN: I Am Just Junco 5 by JA Huss

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT OF BOOK FIVE – RETURN Expected publication date: December 2, 2013 “Junco?” Tier’s voice whispers next to my ear. “Junco? Ya awake, darlin’?” I tuck my head into my chest and whisper, “No,” so softly, even I barely hear it. His arm slides underneath me and then pulls me towards him. He lets out the longest sigh I’ve ever heard and then kisses me on the back of the head. “I love you, Junco.” My chest hitches as the tears build. “No, you don’t. You’re going to leave me.” He stays silent and this is when it all becomes real for me. He’s leaving. I’m not sure where he’s going or how it will happen, but he’s leaving. He’s not staying, there’s no happy ending for me. “Junco, listen—” “No,” I say back quickly. “I’m tired of listening to all the bad things people want to tell me…. Read more »

The New Adult Genre – WTF is Going On?

It’s a life stage… I can only shrug, or laugh—or snicker might be the better word. Because I don’t see much when it comes to trends, I mean seriously—I’m about as out of touch with trends as they come. But I saw this coming from a mile away. And it wasn’t Easy, or Beautiful Disaster that clued me in, either. Although I did read those books long before NA took off and yes, I did love both of them. But I knew back in 2010 when this whole thing was really starting to take form that my main character in my book would not be a young adult in the traditional sense of the word. She’s far too nasty, has a foul-mouth, and I’m not really sure when she lost her virginity, but it wasn’t anytime recent in her nineteen year old life in CLUTCH. I made my character this… Read more »

Happy Valentine’s Day If you haven’t read CLUTCH yet – it’s a beautiful beginning to a long and torturous love story between Tier and Junco…you can find it here. The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took… Read more »
