Three Wishes, A Guest Post and A Giveaway (INT) From Sara Hubbard

I’m so excited to be a guest on Nocturnal Book Reviews today, talking about my recently released novel, BLOOD, SHE READ. 

This novel is a little bit quirky and a little bit paranormal, with a healthy dose of romance. In a nutshell, it is about a teen witch named Petra who comes from a family of questionable morals and who, in an attempt to make up for some of her past sins, decides to help a police officer with a murder investigation—much to the annoyance of her mother.

One of the key relationships in this book is between Petra and her mother, Gina. This may sound a little boring, but I promise you it’s not. Gina is a crackpot and probably the funnest (Is that even a word? Nope, but I like it!) character I’ve had the privilege of writing, to date. She’s not your typical mother, and I think you’ll get a better sense of Petra and Gina, and their strained relationship, after you read the following:

What would Petra and Gina wish for if they had three wishes?

 Gina’s top three: 

1. Murder her ex-husband. (He’s a crime lord so don’t shed too many tears for him)
2. Create a spell to cheat the lottery and win a million dollars, or two, or three, or ten...
3. Send Sebastian back to hell (they have issues, all right?)

Petra’s top three:

1. Keep her mother in check so they don’t have to keep moving like every five minutes. 
2. Find a way to eliminate magic from her life and from her blood—forever. 
3. To be accepted at school, and in whatever town her and her mother find themselves living in.
   
   Sound like a mother-daughter match made in heaven? Or in hell? Be sure to read all about it.

Summary

Keeping secrets from a psychic can be murder.

Petra Maras lives a charmed life, but only in the magical sense. Her absentee father is a criminal, her mother is emotionally dead, and everyone at her new school knows she comes from a family of witches. All she wants is to be normal, but that’s impossible, given her family. And given that she’s psychic. When the police request help with a murder investigation, Petra reluctantly agrees. Which isn’t such a good idea since the prime suspect wants to date her, and she really wants to say yes. Her gut says he’s innocent, but since she can’t get a read on him she can’t know for sure. And when she discovers he’s been keeping secrets, she wonders if maybe she’s been following her heart instead of her head…
