BANE Gets A New Hot Cover

BANE got a brand new cover! This New Adult Paranormal Romance Dystopian trilogy will wrap up later this year and I was thinking that we needed Will on a cover. So how’s this?

BANE is on sale for a little bit longer due to a glitch. It’s still showing at the $2.99 sale price on Amazon and other sites. The links are below.

  • Genre: New Adult PNR Dystopian
  • Length: Novel 304 pgs
  • Series: Yes, trilogy with 2 of 3 books already released
  • Series order: BANE, CATALYST, DIVERGENT

GRAB BANE FROM THESE RETAILERS:

      

DIVERGENT, the final book in this trilogy will be out later this year. PS, this is one of my favorite series to write. A kick ass heroine, an evil hero, a pack of starving wolves, and a butt load of snow. Go get it!

CATALYST is 2nd on the Hot New Releases List!

So, I had no idea it was there. I just clicked around last night on Amazon, looking for another book to buy (ran out of stuff to read again) and I saw my book in the sidebar. Look! That’s me! Hooray! Just thought it was cool and wanted to share.

vampire ya book, new release teen, hot new teen series, bestselling teen vampire

I’m surrounded by traditionally published, kickass books. I mean, two are House of Night! It’s so exciting!

If you haven’t read BANE yet, go grab it. It’s on sale for 99 cents right now. If you’re wondering how a vampire book could possibly be different, read the first chapter of BANE and see for yourself. The reviews on Amazon alone floored me. BANE has only been out a few months and really had no following when I launched it. It climbed up the sales charts and has been hanging neck and neck with DEMON KISSED.

BANE pulled in it’s own audience. You guys rock! Thanks for trying something new!

CATALYST is on sale for $3.99 right now. You can get it at these retailers:

             
If you want to be notified via email on release day, text AWESOMEBOOKS to 22828. You’ll get a reminder email with the book cover, description, and links to book. I’ve gotten a lot of thank you letters for offering this. I’m glad it works and you guys like it!

BANE Trivia by H.M. Ward (Vampire Paranormal Romance)

Yup. It’s true. The world in BANE was going to be insanely hot until I saw the model’s coat. Instant make over to snow. After watching a documentary on the ice caps and global warming, I changed the world to a frozen wasteland. Never underestimate the power of a cool coat!

A New Ella Steele Novel and Mini Romance

Just taking a second to let you know that a new Ella Steele romance novel and mini romance will be coming out this month!  Wahoo!

Working title for the novel is DECEPTION (although I expect it to change).

The mini romance is called TRYST.  Keep your eyes peeled for cover reveals and release dates.

***BOTH romance books will be released in July***  

People have asked if either carry on with the SCANDALOUS story line between Jack and Abby.  The answer is no, but for those of you who can’t get enough, there will be a Jack & Abby mini released later this year.  These new romance titles have similar characters, so if you liked SCANDALOUS, you’ll like these.

Want to make sure you don’t miss it?  Sign up for the newsletter and get the info sent directly to you on release day!

Thank you so much to everyone who read SCANDALOUS and gave me feedback via reviews!  You guys are awesome.  Keep a look out for more summer giveaways.  It’s gonna be a hot July!

Vampire Apocalypse #1 Bane by H.M. Ward Release Day & Giveaway!

Happy Release Day to BANE!  This is my latest YA Paranormal Romance novel.

Want to enter to win a copy of the beautiful paperback book that’s AUTOGRAPHED by the author?  You know you do!  After you’ve read BANE, leave a review on Amazon or Barnes&Nobel and you’ll be entered to win.  Two winners will be chosen at random from those who left reviews on July 31, 2012.  Make sure you check back to see if you won!

VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE #1 is today for only $3.99

 

Description:

The world as we know it is gone. The ice caps have melted and shifted south, devastating the northern territories and eradicating major cities such as New York and London, which are now under water and frozen. Humans died off during an epidemic prior to the ice disaster, and many more died during the floods at the start of this new ice age.

These events have forced vampires out of hiding. In order to ensure that their food source wouldn’t completely die off, the vampires have sequestered the remaining humans into farms and taken control of all that remains of civilization. Over time, the humans breeding on these farms became anemic. Their blood no longer sustains the master race. But not all of the humans were captured and sent to the farms. Some of the humans evaded the hunters, hiding in safe houses across the frozen tundra. As decades passed, the free humans disappeared, died, or were captured, until all that remains is one. Kahli is the last wild human. BANE is her story.
