Her THIRDS world is unique but not too farfetched that you have no idea what you just read.Ĭochet left me in a massive book hang over at the end of Catch a Tiger. I am now a complete addict! Cochet is one of the best writers I have had the privilege to read. It took a big push from a fantastic person to start the series and I am so happy I did. Hi, my name is Michelle, and I am a THIRDS NERD ADDICT! This little series has become quiet the obsession. OMG….THIS BOOK IS EVERYTHING WITH A BIG FAT CHERRY ON TOP If traversing the waters of murder and secret government agencies wasn’t enough, something inexplicable has been happening to Dex-and nothing will ever be the same.ĭREAMSPINNER PRESS EBOOK | DREAMSPINNER PRESS PAPERBACK :: AMAZON :: ARe :: BARNES & NOBLE As buried secrets rise to the surface and new truths are revealed, Dex and Sloane’s love for each other is put to the test, with more than their relationship on the line. Dex learns what he’s secretly believed all along: his parents’ death wasn’t an accident.ĭiscovering the whole truth about John and Gina Daley’s homicide sets off a series of events that will change Dex and Sloane’s lives forever.

Sympathy for the Devil – The Rolling StonesĤ. I like to have a good mix of tunes from different genres and decades.

It also fits nicely when the brawl breaks out. For example, Lay All Your Love on Me by ABBA came on, and it inspired the dance sequence in Chapter 5 of Smoke & Mirrors.

It helps me visualize what’s happening at that moment, and comes through in the description. Sometimes a song might inspire a scene, or something that happens in a scene. When I come across songs that perfectly fit either the scene I’m writing, or fit great with another scene, they tend to make the playlist for that book.Ī good deal of the time, it’s about the sound of the song and the mood it evokes, followed by the lyrics. I have a paid Pandora subscription and several favorite stations set up for writing. Throughout the THIRDS especially, I listen to a lot to classic rock and eighties music, as well as some modern day pop. Most often than not, I listen to music while writing. For those of you familiar with the series, you know what an important part music plays in both the books, and in the characters’ lives, especially in Dex’s life. Hello, all! Welcome to the next stop on the Smoke & Mirrors blog tour, celebrating the release of the 7th book in the THIRDS series.
