My blog here (http://astudyinink.blogspot.com/) has a few drabbles. =)

Hi,

My name is Cindy Mezni and I'm a writer of paranormal romance, dystopia and dark fantasy.

My YA paranormal romance, Shadow's Dangers, is available on Amazon. Here's the synopsis:

"Losing a loved one is never easy. Deliah learned to live without her parents when fate took them from her as a young girl. But history repeats itself and causes her to face even greater challenges when Tess, the woman who raised her and was like a second mother to her, passes away. Even worse than dealing with her loss is the coinciding arrival of inexplicable nightmares that haunt Deliah’s nights.

She becomes consumed with images she doesn’t understand and a recurrent dream about her parents’ car accident. Oddly, this dream details different versions from what she had always been told about the accident.

But when a new family, The Wates, arrive in town and begin to pay close attention to her, even stranger events follow. Now, Deliah must not only face her nightmares, but the possibility that a world she never suspected exists. And this world may cost her everything."

To Know Me

To know me is to die.

Seventeen-year-old Mae is convinced that the consequences of her poor decisions have caused the untimely deaths of her dad, sister Laura, and grandma who all die within a year, no matter how ludicrous her thoughts seem to those she loves. The solution? Run away so no one else she cares for gets hurt (even if she has to keep a GPS tracker on her phone at all times).

Desperate to earn her diploma and salvage something of her life, she transfers schools when people get too close. After switching to Woodson Prep with only two months to go until graduation, Mae keeps her goals in sight. But when she meets Ty, the "perfect boy" with his own secrets and a relentless interest in Mae, she must decide if she can stop running from the past and still protect those she loves.

I'm not want to spoil.. But this book is a must...and not only because of it's illustrations and art.
The Most Ferocious of Creatures is a fun and exciting, illustrated chapter book for boyish young people, as well as adults (it was written by one after all).

Mrs Lambsbottom wakes up one morning and accidentally douses a mouse with milk, unwittingly creating the most ferocious of creatures. She decides to rid her home of the terrible beast but Mrs Lambsbottom is not the most mentally stable of characters. Neither is the cat that she brings home from ‘Meow’s Cat Shelter for the criminally insane’. All the ingredients mix together, ensuring a stupendously silly story, satisfyingly stuffed with suitable story related things and, er, stuff.

NEW FREE BOOK FROM MARCH 30 to APRIL 3: Kaylen’s Rising

Get it here: http://www.amazon.com/Kaylens-Rising-...

Book Description
Kaylen has been in the dark for fourteen years – in every sense. His people are hunted, so they must struggle to survive within underground caves. His community despises his family, taunting him constantly. His parents keep him housebound, forbidding him from wielding sword or wand.

When he is finally allowed to attend school, the harsh truth reveals he has much to learn – including a unique magical ability. Kaylen can summon and control skeletons!

With surface-dwellers threatening war, he will need every friend he can make, and to stay true to himself if he is to survive what is to come.

What are people saying?

“Remember that magical feeling you experienced when you entered a fantasy world – for example the one in Harry Potter? That’s exactly what you will get reading Kaylen’s Rising.”
- Roxana Turcitu, for Review Worm

“Kaylen’s journey to self-awareness is finely woven through his exciting adventures. Readers of all ages will enjoy this fantastical coming-of-age tale. ”
- Paige W. Pendleton, author of The Keeper and the Runestone

“Kaylen’s Rising is a fast-paced, action-packed adventure with a full cast to thrill the young fantasy reader; dwarves, elves, humans, witches, vampires and more grace the pages of this book. ”
- Jen Barton, author of Fiona Thorn and the Carapacem Spell

“Kaylen’s Rising took on the form of a classic; magical adventure that surprisingly reminded me of the Hobbit. It had one of those real effortless qualities, where you almost flew through the pages…”
- Eddie for The Book Gazer

“I felt Kaylen’s pain and joy, I felt Turin’s awesomeness, I felt Avery’s hatred and I felt just about what every character felt. For a shining moment (that is the entire duration of the book), I lived in another world. ”
- Trisha Dawn Daffon for Readers’ Favorite (5 star review)

“Yves pens Kaylen's Rising in a action packed magical fantasy plot filled with witches, elves, dragons and more interesting and well written characters. A nice fast paced read that will keep your child captivated. A must read for all YA readers. ”
- My cozy corner book reviews

Kendra is a soft spoken girl at school, and many of her friends would describe her as independent and shy. But beneath the surface she is a fierce warrior: Kendra is in fact a teen spy. Her "parents" are handlers for the National Security Agency, and she is sent on missions around the country. Her newest mission: a new homegrown terrorist organization has sprung up in the US, and she must tear the organization down. She will come up against more danger than she has ever faced before - will she save her country? Or will she die trying?

Reviews:

★★★★★ Great read
By Jade Das - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase

I don't normally read a lot of YA fiction, but that didn't stop 'Homegrown Terror' from being an engaging story for me. Kendra was a deep, multifaceted character. I honestly found her to be a very believable teen spy, because she does such a great job of maintaining dual personalities and lifestyles. She goes from quiet and shy to skilled and fearless in a seamless way. Still, she is a young person with her life ahead of her, so her musings of what it would be like to be normal do come out in the story.

I thought the story had plenty of action and held my attention throughout. With the best spy stories, there is always more going on than first meets the eye, and in that respect 'Homegrown Terror' doesn't disappoint. I can definitely see how this will make a strong and engaging series if the author continues on like this.

★★★★ I really liked this book
By Kimberly Vanderbloomon
Format: Kindle Edition

I really liked this book. It was fast paced and quite the page turner. The main character Kendra was amazing. It doesn't get cooler than a teenage girl spy. I am glad it is a series because I can't wait to find out what happens next.
