COVER REVEAL: Beguiled by Urania Sarri
Somehow, the Powers that Be have declared that my words carry at least a little weight somewhere in the world, and I was asked by the lovely folks at Juniper Grove Book Solutions if I would participate in a Cover Reveal. I may not find doing things for myself easy, but when it comes to helping other authors, I'm more than happy to do what small things I can to get the word out.
I present to you Beguiled by the lovely and talented Urania Sarri (love her name :D).

~ Excerpt ~
When the rain got me, I
was still running along an unfamiliar street that seemed endless on
both directions. Within seconds, the drizzle became a cold downpour
that soaked me to the bone, plastering the thin shirt and jeans onto
my body. My hair was sticking on my face, pricking my eyes like
dozens of needles, but I didn’t stop. Lost in a haze of despair, I
could not comprehend the faint voice in my head that warned me to go
back. I kept running away. Where I was heading, I could not tell
anymore. Everything around me seemed strange and obscure; no houses,
no shelter, only the perennial olive trees and the murky veil of
rain. For the last two years in my life, every day, every minute,
every second had been spinning around one single pivot; that rescue
mission had been the only pivot of my new life. It had defined my
actions, my thoughts, and my whole existence. I had gone a long way,
overcoming any personal limit and fear, transcending time, only
because I was fixed on a purpose. I had left my old life behind.
I had a life once.
Now, my mission was my
life. A mission that had taken me far away from my family, my
friends, my studies and my future. But I did not care anymore. I had
chosen my destiny. It had always been about him. Christopher. He had
turned his back on me and the pivot support had suddenly vanished. I
had nothing to lean on. My whole life was collapsing. I was
collapsing. There was no angel coming to my rescue this time.
A sharp pain in my chest
blocked my breath, forcing me to stop. But I welcomed the pain,
didn’t want it to ease out. Strangely enough, it seemed to be the
right thing to feel. This is how some people have died, right?
Perhaps this could be the end….
“Hey, you’re standing
in the middle of the street!” a voice in my head shouted. “And
that yellow light approaching is about to crash into you in minutes.
Can’t you hear it? You have to move to the side. Don’t just stand
there. It’s a car! It’s definitely a car and the veil of hale
certainly does not help. MOVE!”
Then why wasn’t I
moving? Could I be waiting for the car to put an end to this
excruciating obstacle race I had started?
I closed my eyes and held
my breath as the roaring sound of the car approached.
