I know many of my Fire Spirits readers were disappointed about the delay of Darkness, Kindled (Fire Spirits #4) and I'm so sorry, guys! Finishing the manuscript and releasing it in 2012 would be the best way to make it up to you but since that's unfortunately a complete impossibility, I'm going to spend December giving you treats - stocking fillers!
Here's the stocking filler schedule :)
Monday 3rd December: Stocking Filler #1 Smokeless Fire special content - Jai's P.O.V
Wednesday 5th December: Stocking Filler #2 Fire Spirits Swag Giveaway
Friday 7th December: Stocking Filler #3 Smokeless Fire special content - Jai's P.O.V

Friday 14th December: Stocking Filler #6 Slumber special content - Wolfe's P.O.V

Cover Reveal - Significance by Shelly Crane
Bestselling author and all round awesome person, Shelly Crane, has gone and given her exceptionally popular novel 'Significance' a cover art makeover. Check out the full cover jacket.
Isn't it amazeballs? :)
Significance (Significance #1) by Shelly Crane
Maggie is a seventeen
year old girl who's had a bad year. She was smart and on track, but then
her mom left, her dad is depressed, she's graduating - barely - and her
boyfriend of almost three years dumped her for a college football
scholarship. Lately she thinks life is all about hanging on by a thread
and is gripping tight with everything she has.
Then she saves the life of Caleb and instantly knows there's something about him that's intriguing. But things change when they touch, sparks ignite. Literally.
They imprint with each other and she sees their future life together flash before her eyes. She learns that not only is she his soul mate, and can feel his heartbeat in her chest, but there is a whole other world of people with gifts and abilities that she never knew existed. She herself is experiencing supernatural changes unlike anything she's ever felt before and she needs the touch of his skin to survive.
Now, not only has her dad come out of his depression to be a father again, and a pain as well, but Caleb's enemies know he's imprinted and are after Maggie to stop them both from gaining their abilities and take her from him.
Can Caleb save her or will they be forced to live without each other after just finding one another?
