Available on Amazon:
Blurb for Gypsy Hunted
Reluctant
psychic Gypsy Shields—she prefers the term "intuition
consultant"—finds herself in trouble when, on her way home from a blind
date, she interrupts a kidnapping in progress. She attempts to intervene, and
her heroics are repaid with a collision between the attacker's van and a brick
wall. She awakens in the hospital, paralyzed on her left side and unable to
speak. This also means she's unable to share her vital information as a
witness. Fortunately, she is able to use her telepathic connection with her
niece to throw a line out to a police detective she knows: Connor Reardon, her
blind date.
Connor
will do anything to protect Gypsy, and he listens to her claims of psychic
power willingly, as he's concealing certain powers of his own. Nor are they all
he's concealing. Gypsy senses a part of her new ally's mind is closed to
her—what she cannot know is that Connor suspects the kidnapper is someone close
to him, and the kidnapping victim holds secrets that will tear through Connor's
department, putting careers and lives at risk. Including Gypsy, still in
hospital and vulnerable as the attacker turns his sights on her once again.
Can
she use her powers to track down the perpetrator and prevent her own murder?
Excerpt from Gypsy Hunted
My eyes went down at the registration plate. I reached into
my handbag for my mobile phone, realizing I should have done this earlier and
made a damn call to the cops.
He’d got her into the van but she wasn’t going without a
fight.
The woman had started banging with her feet kicking the shit
out of the van walls. I could almost see the outline of her foot bashing the
thin metal veneer. With the key in the
ignition he’d turned up the radio to full blast, drowning out the noise of her
screams and kicking.
He revved the crap out of the van, the engine growling so
loud I felt it through my toes. But I stood my ground, even with nails biting
into my palms, pulse speeding, and heartbeat pounding. I’d get his details through to the police if
it was the last thing I did.
I looked up to face him and the van launched at me. I dialed
the emergency services number holding the phone to my ear with fingers so rigid
they hurt. The van came at me and in a split second I was hit, my body bouncing
off the van. My head taking the brunt of
the blow as I struck the brick wall, landing on the ground like a rag doll
unloved and discarded. Strangely,
nothing hurt, at least at this moment. I was sure that it should.
Colors flashed: green, hot pink, and yellow. Tires squealed, and I thought I heard frantic
footsteps approaching.

OH OH OH - I just read the other comments and see Andrea will answer questions! Okay, so before I fall in love the characters - will you have more books or short stories coming out? Are you considering paranormal shifters books? (dragons - that's my sublimial messaging)
ReplyDeleteYour excerpt sounds really interesting and I'm looking forward to reading it.

I love the sound of this book - have always enjoyed mystery books and love it when paranormal elements are added. Psychic abilities have always been my fave addition!
