• It’s still more….


    Yesterday I wrote about how it’s about more than just the books…Today–part 2 if you will–I wanted to share a couple more things.

    On that front cover, just above my title, can you see that? It’s a quote by Cynthia Eden. Her full quote is in the inside of the book, but this one here, is just a snippet that reads:

    “Rush hooked me from page one!” ~Cynthia Eden, National Bestselling Author

    And then on the back, there’s another quote from another amazing author, Lynda Hilburn:

    “Lynn Rush does it again!” ~Lynda Hilburn, author of Kismet Knight, Vampires Psychologist series.

    I can’t thank these two enough to take time out of their busy schedule to read Violet Midnight and send over their thoughts.

    They are such amazing people.

    But when you open the book, there are a couple more people I wanted to mention:

    Kendall Grey and the Paranormal Book Club.

    Thank you for your kind words to me and my novel. The support you guys give…it’s immeasurable.

    So, last, but not least, here’s me with a book, shortly after they arrived. I just couldn’t stop smiling!

    Thanks so much for celebrating this with me. And remember, if you send over your purchase confirmation to Publicist (at) lynnrush (dot) com, we’ll send you an autographed post card.

    Thanks for all your support. Have a super day!

     

  • It’s more than just the books…


    Last Friday I received a nice little surprise from the UPS guy….

    Yep. It’s a box of books. MY books. As in, one I wrote.

    Boy, it’s days like that Friday when it hits me over the head..”I’m a published author.”

    I sometimes can NOT believe it. Still. Even after my third published novel.

    Here’s one of me holding the book. Again, that’ll NEVER get old!!

    And the first few things I thought….

    1. Wish my hubby would get home, like super fast, so I could share this awesome moment with him.

    2. Wish Lynn was here to see this.

    Well, my hubby arrived home from work just a few minutes later and after much SQUEEING and jumping around (mostly on my part) I went on to thinking about Lynn.

    So, I flipped to the dedication to see her name. Even though the LYNN Part on the front of the book is in her honor, I still wanted to see.

    October 24th marks one year since cancer took her life. She is one of the main reasons I donate a portion of all my book sale proceeds to cancer research and treatment (American Cancer Society.) Lynn was an inspiration to me, having read the very first thing I ever wrote (and not laughing hysterically at me). She was a great writer. Never pursued publication or anything, but has journals and journals of stuff. And, she wrote something for my wedding day which had everyone tearing up at the church!

    She was amazing. So, Lynn, I know you’re sitting at the feet of Jesus right now, chatting it up with him, but I hope you know this book is for you.

    Let the Hunt begin…

    Blending in with her college co-eds proves difficult for vampire Hunter, Emma Martin, considering the mystical tattoo on her wrist glows whenever Vamps are near. And after three months of silence, the glow is back with a vengeance.

    Jake Cunningham witnesses Emma, a violet-eyed beauty, using unimaginable powers to fight off a fanged creature. Finally, after two years of searching, he may have found out what he’s become-a Hunter, like Emma.

    Thankful for an ally in the fight against the Vamps, Emma finds hope and comfort in Jake’s arms. As she learns more about her new love’s family and its dark heritage, she may be forced not only to hunt them but to sacrifice her life to save Jake’s soul.
