Ava Michaels used to think she was special.

As a child, she fantasized about having magical powers . . . making things happen. But Ava grew up and eventually accepted the fact that her childish dreams were just that, and maybe a normal life wasn't so bad after all.

Now a young college student, Ava meets Caleb Foster, a brilliant and mysterious man who's supposed to help her pass physics, but in reality has another mission in mind. What he shows Ava challenges her view of the world, shaking it to its very core.

Because Caleb isn't quite what he seems. In fact, he's not entirely human, and he's not the only one.

Together, the duo faces a threat from an ancient race bound to protect humans, but only after protecting their own secrets--secrets they fear Ava may expose. Fighting to survive, Ava soon learns she's not actually normal . . . she's not even just special.

She's a little bit more.

Book Blitz: The Glass Mermaid by Poppy Lawless @ThePoppyLawless @NereydaG1003 #YABOUNDBOOKTOURS #Giveaway

The Glass Mermaid

by Poppy Lawless

Release Date: 07/14/15

Love Potion Books

Summary from Goodreads:
Kate

I'm the last mermaid.

I'm back on shores of Lake Erie, but the cold waters are silent. There is nothing here for me but ghosts and the beach glass that litters the rocky shore. Long ago, I lived below the waves. Now, I am the sole survivor, and at long last, my mermaid glamour is leaving me.

Every day, I walk the beach. Every day, I wonder what happened to my people. The little pieces of colored glass that wash ashore give me simple pleasure. They are gifts from the lake, reminders of home. I fashion them into trinkets: necklaces, earrings, bracelets. They are beautiful things. The humans seem love them.

Every day, I walk the beach. Nothing ever changes, until the day he says hello.

Cooper

I'm dying.

It's not a question, it's a fact. The cancer is eating me alive. They told me I have six months to live, maybe less. I came home, back to Chancellor on Lake Erie, to die. The sunsets are vivid there, and I will relish every one.

I've never seen anything more beautiful than a Lake Erie sunset until I see her.

All life is fragile as glass.

What would you sacrifice to save the one you love?

"Mr. Devil, it might interest you to know that I'm a lady." She hadn't behaved like one but that was beside the point.

"It doesn't interest me at all, Miss Cartwright." He sat on the settee opposite his bed. "Remove your clothes."

"Remove my…"

He held up his hand, hoping to silence her. Properly duped, Liza stared at him dumbfounded and her silence did little to calm the angst stirring inside him. He was growing impatient and fully aware of the reasons.

Liza's modesty might have been an admirable quality in some parts of the world but not in the Wild, Wild West and certainly not in the Devil brothers' home. Unbuttoning his shirt, he let the garment hang free and leaned back, watching her carefully as he released her mind and allowed her to think freely once more.

She immediately gasped and looked the other way. "Mr. Devil! If you would please refrain from showing yourself!"

1. Tell us a bit about yourself.

I am Italian and was born in Rome. In my adolescence I spent a meaningful time in USA, Manchester, New Hampshire. For family reasons I came back to Rome, where I ended my classical studies. I'm married with two children and my life has always been full of "duties", like all mothers have. The house, the husband, the children and an interesting work as functionary in the Educational Field and in cultural exchanges. It was a great effort to manage all this. And in my soul I have always had inspirations that only asked to become stories, but there was never time for that. Until something happened...

2. What inspired you to write your first book?

In 2008 an accident occurred to me and I was motionless for almost two months. My life suddenly stopped and, spending many hours alone in my flat, from which I could see each sunset on the Mediterranean Sea, I started to rethink about my high school time, my friends. I felt that those passions were still alive in me, together with the desperate feelings of that generation. The story came out and I wrote No Steps on the Snow with my left hand, the only one that I could move.

3. How did you come up with the title No Steps On the Snow for your title?

I just thought about our life as to a great expanse of snow, that we trample on during our living, on which we fall in the worst days we live, while we walk and walk. What if, at the end of our way, turning back we would realize that we left "No steps on the snow"?

4. Describe your main character in five words.

Sorry, mean, passionate, mock, naive.

5. What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your books?

An author discovers many surprising things since he/she feels that caress in the soul that is the "inspiration". What most surprised me is how high an author is able to fly while writing. In fact, I realized that I was inside the scenes and among the characters I was creating, I saw them moving around me and I was myself part of the whole. When I wrote the final chapter of "No steps on the snow", I wiped my tears without realizing I was crying. Writing is a magic.

6. What is your work schedule like when you're writing?

My work schedule is very simple. I just imagine a situation and start creating something that gets its shape page by page. The truth is that I never know, at the beginning of the story, how it will go on and in which way it will end.

7. Do you have any writing rituals?

Well, for me it's important to write always in the same place, that is my studio, maybe because from that window I can see the Bay, with its magical scenery. When I need an inspiration I look at the sunset, discovering that each day dies in its own way, like every human being does.    

8. What book are you reading now?

I always read a lot, a book after another. When I was thirteen I read Hemingway's whole collection. Now I'm reading a book of an interesting Dutch writer, Saskia Noort. The title  is "The Fiver".

9. Do you have anything specific that you want to say to your readers?

A writer feels he/she has a mission, which is to convey strong emotions and deep feelings to the readers. An author stays hours and hours alone, writing and creating, sometimes forgetting even to eat at lunch or dinner, if the story requires. What is the only reward that an author needs for all this commitment? A smile from a reader that enjoyed reading the book or, as it happened to me, receiving a letter from a reader of No Steps on the Snow:  

"...I want to talk about  my emotions, the ones that your book has caused me. How to start? Perhaps from the feeling that has bound and imprisoned me since the first pages, from that deep sense of authenticity that I felt from the very first lines... I have seen materialized before my eyes the story described, and it didn't matter if I was sitting on the train or standing on the subway, wherever I was, I could feel the moist air of the Tiber river, the warm rays of the sun, the scent of the sea....".

A writer needs a return from the readers, that's his/her only real award.

His movements forced me to retreat, slowly making my way toward the kitchen. Our eyes locked on one another, his smoldering gaze almost too much to bear. He was telling me everything and nothing at all. Desire was clear in not only his face but the rise and fall of his chest. The curve of his mouth and the sight of his tongue teasing his bottom lip was driving me insane.

His mere presence ignited my desire. What would happen when he actually touched me?
