Racquel is unique. The bloodlines of four of the most powerful beings in the Shadow World are intertwined within her DNA. She has never craved attention. She just wants to be able to live as normal life as she can. But she's about to find that even though she's uniquely unwelcome wherever she goes, her abilities also make her the best chance the Shadow World has to stop a threat to all the Shadow races.
Once arriving home, Racquel finds that greater evils exist and that the person she cares for most in this world, her half-sister Addie, has been kidnapped along with other Shadow World beings. Racquel finds herself facing horrible odds with those who would rather see her dead than alive.
As her journey continues, Racquel learns more about herself, what she is capable of, and that not every being looks at her as an abomination. Coy, a human captive that Racquel saves from the Vampires, starts showing kindness toward her. Racquel tries putting distance between her and the human boy but as they spend more time together it becomes harder and harder for Racquel to fight the affection she wants and needs.
But will Coy's friendship and her new found discoveries be enough to help Racquel unravel the strangest mystery that has ever plagued the Shadow World?
Ok, so down here I have an interview with the author!!
Q: What was
your favorite part of introducing this world to readers?
I love the
interaction with the readers. I had one
reader email me and said that she was bullied and that Racquel’s story, who is
a girl that belongs nowhere (at least that is what she’s told) inspired her. That was and still is my main goal with all
my writing, to have some message that inspires readers. I want their imagination to be fulfilled but
their lives to be a little inspired as well.
Q: Is this a
series?
Yes. Blood Burdens (Book 2) is already available
on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and the iBookstore for 0.99. Sacrifice: A New Dawn (Book 3) will be
available September 2013.
Q: Who was
your favorite character to write?
Although she
is not in Uniquely Unwelcome but just for one chapter, I love Queen Kaya, the
majestic yet frightening Fae Queen. She
becomes more involved throughout the series and I love writing each and every
cryptic scene.
Q: How did
you come up with these characters’ personality?
The best
relationships and work ethnic in a book are characters that have conflict,
secrets, but somehow complement each other when it comes to the action. That’s what I wanted. I wanted my characters to be different, have
their own issues, but useful to one another when the time came and they had to
work together. So each character has
their own guarded, uptight, or humorous attitude, but when a fight breaks out,
they use their strengths together to try and survive.
Q: What was
your writing process like?
Well, I
always write an outline and try to stick to it, but really I never do. I still do this when planning a new book, but
that doesn’t mean that is how it will work out.
But that is also the magical part of writing. Even us authors get a good surprise from our
imagination, which is just as much of a thrill for us as
it is for the readers.
Review: Ok guys, Ya'll need to understand that I really loved this book! I loved the plot, and how it unraveled. I just fell in love with Raquel's character. I hated Ethan at first but grew to like him. I loved the rest of the character though I was surprisingly wary of Coy. I enjoyed how Raquel had her flashbacks even though they were horrific. I loved the twists and the turns! All in all, it's epic!! I can't wait to read the next one!!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
+13.21.32.png)
Brandy Nacole resides in
Arkansas where her imagination runs wild. Her obsession is reading but her
passion is writing. She put her dream of becoming a writer on the back burner
and went to college to become a psychologist. Three years after endless classes
in a field she only felt half satisfied with, Brandy picked up her pen once
again and wrote the outline to Uniquely Unwelcome. She finished out her degree
in psychology, but traded her dream of writing for the degree and put psychology
on the back burner.
Whenever she’s not reading or
writing, Brandy is spending time with her family and friends, throwing around
crazy ideas, teaching , and singing like a rock star at a concert for no one
else but herself. She loves plants, but unfortunately is a killer of anything
that requires water but can’t voice (scream) their needs.
She is the author of The Shadow
World Series and The Spiritual Discord
Peace, Love and Fangirl,
Alex
