From the author of The Light Tamer Trilogy comes the first book Fallen, in the duet series, The Dark Side of Good.
You met Amber in The Light Tamer Trilogy. She was the smart-mouthed side-kick of Jessie Lucente. (SPOILER ALERT ABOUT THE LIGHT TAMER TRILOGY) At the end of Light Bound, Amber, distraught over Thorne, she stabs herself with the Sword of Darkness. Instead of spending her life as a Dark One with Thorne, he is healed and Amber is left Dark.
Readers who love adventures like, The Red Queen, or The Iron Fey, will enjoy being transported into the magical world Devyn has created.
Everything Amber loves is threatened when she framed for a murder she didn't commit.
When Amber escaped from the Council with Thorne, she was framed for murder. The Council set the reward for her capture so steep, bounty hunters hunted her like a wild animal.
After three years on the run, it takes two Witches, one Guardian, an Elf, and a moody Shadow Warrior to clear her name.
When Amber impaled herself with the Sword of Darkness, she was imprisoned by the Council to be tested ruthlessly. They feared what they didn't know, and in the process they denied her freedom. Her anger grew day by day, until she finally escaped. Thorne helped her, and together they created a band, The Dark Side of Good. While hidden under a glamour, they toured the United States, having concerts wherever they could. Friendships are made, some are lost, but together, they fight for the truth.

Teaser Tuesday - Amber's Faerie Tale
From Amber's Faerie Tale - release date 2/25/14
I giggle to myself as he trips on his shoelaces as he heads
back to our table.
“You really should tie your shoes. Gimme your foot,” I say and pat my knee. He grins that ridiculously adorable cat-like
grin at me and places his foot on my knee.
I tell him step by step how to tie the shoe. He watches me as though it
is the most fascinating thing he’s ever watched before. We’re both too busy with his shoe to notice a
group of snobs from school.
“Oh Thorne, how cute, you got yourself a little pet to tie
your shoe. If you decide to give up on
little gothic girls, give me a call,” Stacy the school skank says. She thinks that since she’s the captain of
the cheerleader squad that she’s entitled to date whomever she wants.
Thorne looks at Stacy as though she’s grown a horn out of
her forehead. “You’re really not my
type. You’re simply ordinary, and I’m not
an ordinary kind of person. By the way,
Amber is anything but ordinary, she’s amazing.”
The words fall from his lips and my heart leaps to my throat. “Could you scurry away now, we’re having a
private conversation,” Thorne says sarcastically.

Amber's Faerie Tale
You asked for it, you've got it...Amber's story! If you haven't read Enlightened, it is recommended to read that book before reading this novella. As a matter of fact, if you haven't read it...don't read the synopsis of this book....or pay attention to the title. By continuing to read, you're taking it into your own hands that you're reading a spoiler. Don't write me and say you had no idea and now you're scarred for life. Nope, you can't say those things.
You're reading at your own risk. I'm warning you to turn your eyes and run and read the first two books before going any further.
Amber, the sassy sidekick to Jessie Lucente has met her match the day she meets bad boy Thorne. They've gone on a few dates, but Thorne is Jessie's guardian and he has a mission to protect her at all cost. He's able to handle Amber's sarcasm and dishes it back, to her dismay. They are just learning how to juggle dating and Thorne's guardian schedule when Amber is abducted during a school dance.
'
Amber knows her abductors have a schedule, and if she isn't rescued before time is up, she'll die. She doesn't fear death, she fears the pain it will cause her friends and Thorne. When Amber's brother died she thought of nothing else but taking her own life, but knew how much it would hurt her family. The only problem now is she has something and someone to live for; but she refuses to fear the end.
This isn't a love story full of sweet kisses and adoring teens, so if you're looking for that kind of faerie-tale, read about Jessie and Caleb.
Amber's Faerie-Tale is Available December 17, 2013 - Add to your TBR List

Enlightened....update from author
It's one in the afternoon on the day I was to release Enlightened. It wasn't released, but it will be on 10/10/12. I have a couple of reasons why. I'd thought it would be nice to have something positive on a date that has otherwise been bad for me. Today is the 10 year anniversary of my mother's death. I decided that it was more important to remember her today, and not worry about book sales. That is the first reason why I didn't release it.
The second reason I'm not ready to release it....I changed my mind about the ending of the book. You see, I decided to reveal the biggest secret to Light Tamers. I feel that you the reader will want to know....because...because....because - it will have you wanting more in the third book. I've outlined the third book, and I know how the trilogy ends... What! Yes...trilogy. Wait, no whips...please...this isn't 50 Shades of anything. I do plan on writing another book after the third ends....and that's all I'm saying. Okay, so I deleted about 14,000 words which meant...I had to rewrite them into the ending I wanted for Enlightened. I am tweaking the ending right now... and I was up until 3 in the morning writing...I've not left my house since Friday or was that Thursday...I don't know. I think some will love it.....some will hate it.... and some will never see it coming. I'm very, very, very excited to hear your reaction. My betas haven't seen the ending and only two know what's about to happen. They're sworn to secrecy....
Now you know why Enlightened isn't out. I'm curious what people think is about to happen. It will be ready and out on Oct 10.... cross my heart!
XOXO

What to expect from me
Howdy my lovely lovies. This is a post without a giveaway or promoting any books. I want you to know what you can expect from me the writer. My target audience for my Light Tamer series is 12 - 15. As a mother, I would read my kids books first, before I allowed them to read it. Moms are busy and don't always have the chance to monitor everything. Now that we have a world of smart phones, e-readers and internet, it is hard for parents to make sure that things are as they appear. I want to assure the moms and dads out there, I will always keep my content proper for that age group.
To the authors and bloggers that have adult content, I can't retweet your work or promote on my Facebook page. It has nothing to do with you, because I respect your craft, it has to do with my fans and family. I've turned away a couple of people recently because of the adult nature. It's my responsibility to be responsible. Thank you for considering me though.
Thank you to everyone that has fallen in love with Caleb and Jessie! I'm so glad so many people have become Team Caleb!

Enlightened Cover Reveal!
Enlightened Cover Reveal
by Devyn Dawson
Do you get the picture? Her work is very professional, and her prices are very affordable. We collaborated together and decided that The Light Tamer needed a face-lift. It makes it easier for readers to recognize they are from the same series. I agreed. I loved the old book cover and I love the new one. What do I like about Emma's covers? First, her eye for colors and subject matter are great. Since she is a writer, she understands the need to draw the reader from the cover alone. Not only are her covers beautiful but her banners are very attractive. When you're considering your own cover, you need to ask yourself a couple of questions.
1. Will it appeal to readers?
2. Will it look good in print?
3. Does it tell a story?
4. Does it 'speak' to you?
Now for my cover reveal for Enlightened. Let me know what you think! If you want to see more of Emma's covers.... http://emmamichaels.blogspot.com/

Lucky 7 MeMe
I saw this on Natalie Kroll's Blog today. Here are the rules:
- Go to p. 77 of current WIP (or p. 7 if it's a short)
- go to line 7
- copy down next 7 lines, sentences or paragraphs & post them as they’re written
- Tag 7 other authors
- Let them know
Enjoy! :)
WIP - The Light Tamer
“Hi I’m Jessie and I’m new to all of this too. I ask that you forgive my ignorance if I don’t have an answer to your questions. Believe me; I’ve been on a quest for the last few weeks, trying to figure out what all of this means. Recently I had a lunch meeting with Mrs. Ward, the principal of Parca. She educated me to several things, but the most complicated is the story on how we all began.” I clear my throat and take a sip of bottled water before going on. “As philosophers have said many times, you can’t go forward without going back to the beginning.”

Book signing fun!
Avoid book signing with an ax murderer.
On Feb 28, 2012 - I had the great opportunity to meet Quinn Loftis, Jaz Primo and Janice Grove. Quinn and I spent most of the afternoon together and then she admitted her husband was slightly worried that I could be an ax murderer. I mean sure we've never really met in person...but we've talked on the phone, we've texted...and honestly I never put her in my possible 'ax murderer' online friends. I've thought about the risks that we made... I mean, sure we don't have publicist that actually set things up and I could have lied about the situation with the bookstore. I'm very happy I passed the test... it would have been hard to put that on my resume. Just sayin'. I won't mention that I went to her hotel room and changed clothes... not in front of her or anything, sheesh - give me credit.
What did I learn about the signing - well... if there is a fireplace, ask the store to turn it off HOURS prior to setting you directly in front of it....on a 75 degree day. Make sure you have signs and set them up. I saw Jaz brought some book stands.... good idea! I'm buying some this weekend. If you order a sign as large as mine, make sure you have a large car or truck. It isn't fun worrying about being decapitated while driving down the road with a sign at the back of your neck.
It was incredibly fun seeing all of my family and friends that I haven't seen in years. I hope they all had a chance to talk with the other authors (I come from a large family and I've been gone 9 years). I hope everyone had fun.
The Light Tamer is coming along well, but I think it will be delayed by two weeks. I'm looking for TEN BETA readers between the ages of 12-18, hopefully female. Email me if you're interested. devyndawson@yahoo.com
