Prophecy Girl: Author Spotlight and Giveaway

Amelie Bennett. ... Ending the world, one prophecy at a time.
I was born to slay Crossworld demons.
Big black flappy ones, little green squirmy ones. Unfortunately, the only thing getting slain these days is my social life. With my high school under attack, combat classes intensifying, and Academy instructors dropping right and left, I can barely get my homework done, let alone score a bondmate before prom.
Then he shows up.
Jackson Smith-Hailey. Unspeakably hot, hopelessly unattainable, and dangerous in all the right ways. Sure, he’s my trainer. And okay, maybe he hates me. Doesn’t mean I’ll ignore the wicked Guardian chemistry between us. It’s crazy! Every time I’m with him, my powers explode. Awesome, right?
Wrong.
Now my teachers think I’m the murderous Graymason destined to bring down our whole race of angelbloods. Everyone in New Orleans is hunting me. The people I trusted want me dead. Jack and I have five days to solve the murders, prevent a vampire uprising, and thwart the pesky prophecy foretelling his death by my hand. Shouldn’t be too difficult.
Getting it done without falling in love. . . that might take a miracle.

As part of the Prophecy Girl blog tour, I'd like to spotlight Cecily White, the author of Prophecy Girl. 


Cecily Cornelius-White, Psy.D. makes a habit of avoiding boredom whenever possible. She has enjoyed careers as a hand model, GAP salesgirl, movie projectionist, psychotherapist, yoga instructor, university professor, artist, dance choreographer, eating disorders specialist, psych diagnostician, book reviewer and copy editor. None of which are as much fun as writing novels.

She currently lives in Springfield, MO with two FABULOUS kids, and a schizophrenic yet well-mannered cat. She can swear in Klingon, take down an alien aggressor using only her mind (or a pair of chopsticks), and kill giant spiders without getting schmutz on her shirt.

When not singing to herself, she spends time creating new worlds and thinking up ways to make this one better  

Thanks for letting us know more about yourself, Cecily! Cecily can be found on: her website, Twitter, Facebook and Goodreads. 

Prophecy Girl can be bought from: [Amazon] [Barnes and Noble] [The Book Depository]

  3. The first thing I thought about was Vampire Academy because of the whole trainer-student aspect.

  4. I just realised that this book has been blurbed by C.J Redwine! That's brilliant. :) I like the sound of this, though I'm waiting for a few more reviews to trickle in. Thanks for sharing!

  7. She sounds like a good person to have around in the case of an alien invasion and/or giant spider attack. I would like her to come live with me because spiders scare the life out of me, no matter the size. I freak out whenever I see one. Like a little girl. *pats self on back for bravery* :)

  8. Holy, what a diverse job background! I can't believe she was actually a hand model, haha! I love it when authors come up with fun author bios, like this one.
