I have the pleasure of welcoming author J. Meyers to the blog today for a little guest post fun with a This or That List of Random and a short excerpt from her newest release, Imaginable. Imaginable is book two in her series featuring gifted twins Sera and Luke Raine, with book one, Intangible, releasing last year. I thoroughly enjoyed Intangible and am really looking forward to seeing what's in store for brother and sister next!

EXCERPT
Luke looked up to find Sera watching him.
“What’s up?” she said.
“Nothing.”
“Luke, it’s me. Remember me?” She reached out toward him as if to shake his hand. “Hi, I’m Sera. We met in the womb? I know when something’s up. Tell me.”
Luke studied her for a moment. She raised an eyebrow at him. He smiled and rolled his eyes.
“I’m just trying something new and it’s not going very well.”
“Tell me.”
“There’s not much to tell. I’m trying to make visions come to me, like on command, and I have no idea how to do it.” He shrugged. “I’m failing miserably.”
“First of all, you haven’t failed—you just haven’t figured it out yet. And second? You will.”
“I better.”
“You will.” Sera grinned at him. “Besides, you keep telling me you’re some sort of genius.”
Luke laughed—the first real laugh since they’d left Muddy Waters. It felt good. “It’s true. I am.”
“Prove it.”

IMAGINABLE
Twins Sera and Luke Raine’s unusual abilities are growing. Sera is healing vampires now, making them human again. And, at times, Luke can actually change the future he Sees.
But Sera’s healing has dangerous consequences, and though Luke is altering the outcome of more visions, he can’t control them yet.
Now Sera is in danger as the dark creatures of the Realm seek to use her. As Luke struggles to master his gift in order to save his sister, he discovers even more about his powers.
And what he learns just may put him in greater danger than Sera has ever been.

I am sharing a review of this in June, great this or that interview and excerpt! I like to stay up late too and then I need lots of coffee, which is good since I love it!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! I LOVE this series! The second books was just as good as the first, (If Not BETTER)!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of this book before. I luuuvvv staying up late and sleeping in ;-) I also hate cliff hangers AND, and and and and.. I read book once as well, but I re-read my favorite book/series a thousand times. Ha. 'We met in the womb? ' -- LOL!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCliffhangers are just mean! Yes! Clearly J. Meyers is the perfect author, no wonder I loved the first book so much.
ReplyDeleteI really can't wait to go back to Luke and Sera. I thought their relationship was excellent in the first book. You gotta love twins. :)
Oh, I love this-or-that interviews! Yet another great one, Jenny!(:
ReplyDeleteThank you! BOO TO CLIFFHANGERS and yay to HEAs!! I'm generally a one-time reader, too, except for those books/authors I adore. I have some that are my go-to comfort books on my shelf.
ReplyDeleteI adore this series and J. is just a sweetheart! I am so glad you liked this one!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun interview! I am all about the happy endings as well. Thanks for sharing this with us!
ReplyDeleteI have seen this cover somewhere but I can't remember where. Anyhow it sounds really interesting. I love the interview even though I'd answer the most of the questions differently :)) Great interview Jenny :)
ReplyDeleteCliffhangers...we all know how I feel about those haha ;) seriously though...can you teach me how to interview, pretty please! But f'reals.
ReplyDeleteI love these short this or that interviews! Thanks for sharing Jenny and J. Meyers! I also love nightime and prefer books to movies, then books to TV, it's nice just to watch one interpretation of a book and not have to wait for the next episode.
ReplyDeleteYay for Happily Ever Afters:) Cliffhangers drive me crazy...I need some sort of resolution!
ReplyDeleteLoved the interview Jenny! And yes for bookmarks. I don't like it when reader dogear their books. Poor pages.
ReplyDeleteSo many books, so little time
ReplyDeleteSO glad to see that you hate cliffies. I hope as a author you remember that. :D Oh I hate cliffies too. Can you tell? LOL
ReplyDeleteOoh I love the idea of having the power to heal vampires and make them human again. That could make for a very interesting plot! And I have to wholeheartedly agree that cliffhangers are SO MEAN. :-) Thanks for sharing this excerpt and the fun this or that!
ReplyDeleteBetween a vampire and a werewolf, I'd want to be a vampire too. You're pretty much immortal and look hot :) Drinking blood would be a problem though ... on the other hand, who wants to be hairy?
ReplyDeleteI've heard a lot of good things about this series! I'm a night person too just cause it's quiet enough to finally get stuff done. Although I have to get up in the morning with the kids so I guess I just don't get that much sleep.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, HATE the cliffies and YAY for HEA!
Nice excerpt

Oooh this looks really good! Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cover and the paranormal, sign me up!
ReplyDeleteThis or that questions are so much fun! I would totally pick bitten by a vampire over werewolf. Who wants to look like a dog when you change. Plus, there's that living forever young thing that I totally would sign up for. Great interview, as usual Jenny! This series sounds exciting. Thanks for the giveaway. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post. I love nighttime and staying up late to. I have the first book in this series. I really need to find the time to read it.
