Blurb:
Seventeen-year-old
Rena Mason counts the days until she can leave for college. Every night her
father drinks himself to sleep, leaving her to care for her younger brother.
When her father is kidnapped by terrorists, her dreams of freedom become a
nightmare.
Stunned that her father has a
history with these terrorists, Rena knows she must run or be their next victim.
She learns the tough guy at school has a reason to look after her - he's
working for a government agency with the same goal as the terrorists: find a
woman who disappeared eighteen years ago. Time is running out since only this
woman's special gift can save the world from a looming nuclear attack.
Rena can't trust anyone,
especially not the stone-cold agent she's falling for. Can they save the world
before Rena's feelings trap her in an agent's fight for justice?
Fear Justice contains elements of
fantasy, sci-fi, and paranormal, with a clean romance. It's the first book in
an exciting new series called The Fear Chronicles.
Excerpt:
“Last night. Coach and my dad
were friends. They joined the Army together.” Why was I babbling? Tony didn’t
need to know my life story. “I showed up this morning because I thought he
might know why these people were after my dad.”
“Did either of them tell you?”
I shook my head and looked at
Tony. “The man who beat up Coach Andrews—he said he’d give me a head start
before hunting me down.”
Again, Tony glanced in the
mirror. “He didn’t happen to say he drives a black Lincoln, did he?”
As I spun in the seat and leaned
over the headrest to see, the belt cut into my neck. Behind us, a black car
crept closer with every second. Someone in the passenger seat leaned out of the
window with a gun. “There’s a man with a gun following us and I’m not freaking
out. At least, I don’t think I am.”
“No, you’re cool.”
With a bitter laugh, I turned
back around and dropped down on the red vinyl seat. “Cool? When are you going
to ask why I’m not afraid?”
Tony hit the brakes and made a
turn that left me choking from the belt’s grip. “Right after you ask why I
picked you up.”
Do you ever wish you were someone
else? Who?
I’m actually pretty happy being
me with the family I have. I worked hard to earn an engineering degree and have
enjoyed putting it to use. I always wanted to write books. After almost two
decades, I reached my goal.
What did you do on your last
birthday?
I had a stiff drink and tried my
best to pretend I wasn’t a year closer to forty. Typically, I try not to celebrate
my birthdays. The idea of getting older makes me sad, although not as much since
I started publishing my books. I used to stress over never getting my work into
the world. Now I stress over watching my girls grow up way too fast.
What part of the writing process
do you dread?
Typing the words. Counting every
ten thousand until I’m done. Although I took typing as a teen, I have a love/hate
relationship with my keyboard. I once tried software to convert my words to
text but quickly realized this program couldn’t translate a Southern accent.
Do you ever suffer from writer’s
block? If so, what do you do about it?
All the time. I always have
several works in progress. If I get hung up on one story, I jump to another.
Tell us about your latest
release.
Fear Justice is the story of Rena
Mason, a seventeen-year-old who grew up in a camper. Since her mother died and
her father wastes his nights drinking, she provides most of the care for her
younger brother. All Rena can think of is a scholarship, which could mean a new
life.
If only she knew her life is
about to change forever.
When her brother disappears and
her dad is kidnapped by terrorists, Rena’s alone for the first time in her
life. The new guy at school has a plan to protect her – she has no idea he’s
working for a government agency. She must face her dad’s past with this agency
and figure out how to unlock a power the terrorists are willing to fight for.

Author Bio and Links:
C.C. Bolick grew up in south
Alabama, where she’s happy to still reside. She’s an engineer by day and a
writer by night—too bad she could never do one without the other.
Camping, fishing… she loves the
outdoors and the warm Alabama weather. For years she thought up stories to
write and finally started putting them on paper back in 2006. If you hear her
talking with no one to answer, don’t think she’s crazy. Since talking through
her stories works best, a library is her worst place to write… even though it’s
her favorite!
C.C. loves to mix sci-fi and
paranormal—throw in a little romance and adventure and you’ve got her kind of
story. She’s written nine books including the Leftover Girl series, The Agency
series, and The Fear Chronicles.
