Sunday Poetry: Ghost In The Land Of Skeletons

"Poetry is truth in its Sunday clothes." -Joseph Roux

Ghost in the Land of Skeletons
Christopher Kennedy

If not for flesh’s pretty paint, we’re just a bunch of skeletons, working hard to deny the fact of bones. Teeth remind me that we die. That’s why I never smile, except when looking at a picture of a ghost, captured by a camera lens, in a book about the paranormal. When someone takes a picture of a spirit, it gives me hope. I admire the ones who refuse to go away. Lovers scorned and criminals burned. I love the dead little girl who plays in her yard, a spectral game of hide and seek. It’s the fact they don’t know they’re dead that appeals to me most. Like a man once said to me, Do you ever feel like you’re a ghost? Sure, I answered, every day. He laughed at that and disappeared. All I could think was he beat me to it.

It's a marvelous day for a Cover Reveal!

Unbeknownst to the people visiting every day, its hidden magic also draws fairy tale creatures from your childhood who embark on wickedly sexy adventures in pursuit of their happily-ever-after. They battle curses, secrets, and other things that go bump in the night, as well as a new evil lurking in the wings.

The first book in the series- Twisted Revenge, by Mia Bishop -is currently available. You can get yourself caught up here.

Ever After Series, Book Two: Twisted Redemption

Behind the Gateway Arch lies a secret world and Belle will discover there’s more expected of her than she’d thought when she’d agreed to work for Sean. Dragged into a land she’d only read about in storybooks she quickly discovers Sean’s dark side and the beast lurking within. Though Belle swore she’d keep a professional distance from Sean, their instant attraction to each other is undeniable. Belle not only finds herself participating in hot sex with the man she holds responsible for her father’s death but suddenly everyone is telling her she’s the one who can break an ancient curse.

When the Pied Piper sets his sights on the couple and Belle’s life is threatened, Sean must defeat his beast and win Belle’s heart…not just her body.

But twists of betrayal, lies, and death cause events to spiral out of control. Belle struggles to navigate her way through a paranormal land populated by shapeshifter wolves and other strange creatures, inside her own dangerously passionate fairytale.
