Unattainable Cover Reveal and Excerpts




 

From the author that brought you Captivated, here is the cover of Unattainable! It's the second installment of the Affliction Novels. If you haven't read Captivated yet, I highly recommend you doing so.

If the cover wasn't enough to get us all chomping at the bit, D. Apodaca (now known as E.M. Jade)  has teased us further with a couple excerpts from Unattainable.

Excerpt 1: Questions from Dean Excerpt
“What do you want from me?” I demanded.

Dean examined my eyes and looked disappointed in what he saw. “Do you remember anything?” He asked with hope.

“What are you talking about? I was with Shane, then I woke up here! He’ll kill you for this!” I warned.

Dean threw back his head and laughed. “That little mosquito can try.” Then he lowered his eyes and cocked a smile. “I dare him.”

The way he gazed at me was intense. I felt butterflies frantically flying in my stomach and up my chest.
“What do you want from me?” I demanded, as I pretended not to feel a rush of excitement from his close presence.

“Do you remember anything from your human life?” Dean asked and tilted his head to the side.

“No.” I responded immediately.

“Are you sure? Think really hard.” Dean insisted.

“I don’t. I’ve already tried thinking really hard. Why is this so important?” I asked.

Ignoring my question, Dean asked, “Do you remember your friends? Family?” He hesitated and nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “Maybe a boyfriend you had?”
Excerpt 2: Spotting Mindy
She slowly turned. I breathed hard with anticipation. I could taste her lips on mine. I could feel her soft touch embracing me. And I pictured her loving eyes penetrating mine. But what I saw made me want to die. Her eyes were brown, not hazel. Her lips weren’t even rosy. Her hair was clearly dyed. This wasn’t my Lina.

“Hi.” The girl said with interest as she looked me up and down. “Can I help you with
something?” Then she slightly popped her hip out and set her hand upon it, smiling while
waiting a reply.

I stayed frozen, staring at this girl as other feelings erupted inside me. Anger. Hate. Pain.

“What’s wrong with him?” She turned to Markus standing beside me after she had no
response from me. He didn’t answer either. We both stared at this imposter as you would stare at an unwanted gift. 
So, there you have it! What do you think? I don't know about all of you, but I'm not going to be able to wait until April/May 2012 to read Unattainable!

Win Captivated by D. Apodaca! {CLOSED}





In celebration of the cover reveal of her second novel, D. Apodaca has kindly allowed us to giveaway two eBook versions of Captivated, An Affliction Novel. If you haven't read this book yet, this is your chance! It is AMAZING! Read my review of Captivated, An Affliction Novel.


Summary via The Affliction Series Website:
Mindy Keenan couldn't shake the feeling that somehow...in a matter of moments...the boy she once knew was not the one standing before her.
After Mindy's childhood best friend, Dean Aiken, shuts her and everyone else out of his life, she learns to move on. Years pass and she gets used to the fact that he's no longer a part of her life, but things begin to change…
Mindy's new best friend, Markus Medina, witnesses Dean kill two people behind a club. Mindy has a hard time believing him, especially when he mentions that the bodies disappear. Poof! Into thin air. Markus decides he has to follow Dean around in order to get evidence that he's been killing people, so he doesn't sound like a nut to the police.
Despite Marcus’ crazy theories about the possibility of Dean not being human. And not to mention the fact that he's dangerous. Mindy can't help that she may be falling in love with him. Even after hiding their feelings for each other from the world. Dean and Mindy being together stirs up dangers that neither of them could ever imagine. When she finds out about what Dean really is and the world he tried to keep her away from...it's already too late.
