UNWILLING, by K.D. Wood,
is a New Adult Paranormal releasing on November 11,
2014 from Blue Tulip Publishing. The “Romeo and
Juliet meets Alien” style novel is set in the Deep South and features eighteen
year old, Neely McIntire. When Neely is confronted by a mythical creature in
the form of a handsome teenager from New Zealand, she soon realizes her
family’s inherited gift of sight won’t be able to save her.
Neely McIntire’s dreams warn her about the future but will
not protect her from the danger hiding in plain sight. On graduation night, she
plans to tell her best friend, Hayden Nelson, that she's in love with him.
Instead, they argue. Neely's hurt feelings leave her vulnerable, giving her
secret admirer, Andrew Huckley, the opportunity to put his mother’s monstrous
plan into motion. When Neely gives in to her broken heart and pushes
him away, Hayden knows he must fight to recapture the spark he felt in their
last kiss. But will he find her in time to reverse the damage or will she be
changed forever?

fingertip outfit of Neely's! This recreation happens about mid-book at the
height of the action! This jean/t-shirt combo is perfect!
“Finally,” I said under my breath.
The moon had come out and bathed the crowd in silver. Moving
to the edge of the patio, I scanned the yard for Neely. No sign of her.
“Hayden!” Bubba waved at me from over by the food tables.
I quickly maneuvered through the kids toward him.
“Hey man, your folks put on a good feed!” Bubba bellowed
over the thunderous beat of the music.
“Thanks,” I hollered back. “I’m looking for Neely. Did you
ask her if her sister’s coming tonight?”
His face scrunched, and his mouth drooped. Carrie had
obviously wormed her way out of coming.
“Hey.” I bumped his shoulder with my fist. “I’m sorry, man.”
Bubba shrugged, sucking on a crawfish head. “I ain’t giving
up on her yet.”
“So have you seen Neely?” I yelled.
“Yeah.” Bubba’s face screwed up in a grimace. “Saw her
throwing McCreepy a bone a little while ago.”
“What the hell?” My voice shot up an extra octave. “Are you
serious?”
“Man, they were slow dancing and everything.” He made a
kissy face, wagging his eyebrows.
“You’re sure it was McCreepy?” Part of my question sounded
more like an expletive. The mental image of Andrew touching Neely speared my
heart.
“Yep,” Bubba said, shoving a new potato into his left cheek
like a gigantic chipmunk. I probably would’ve laughed if I hadn’t been so
pissed off.
“Why would she do that?”
Bubba tapped the side of my head with a damp finger. “Think
about it, man. It ain’t like you’ve made a move.” Shaking his head, he elbowed
me out of the way. “Neely is sweet, gorgeous and very a-va-il-a-ble,” he said
over his shoulder, raking up another pile of crawfish. Only a redneck could
turn that word into five syllables. “What’d you expect? For the half-dozen guys
out here panting after her to wait for you to decide to get your head outta
your ass?”
Spinning away from him, I didn’t answer. Why? Because it
pissed me off that he was right.

happening in this scene just by the ensemble? Oh no, you'll never guess it
*wink* I hope you all are ready for this one!
