Elemental Lies
(Essential Elements #2)
by Elle Middaugh
Genre: YA Fantasy Romance
Release Date: July 24th 2017
Pronoun
Summary:
Valerie Moore is an Elemental, a person who commands one of the
classical elements of wind, water, fire, or earth. She’s special, though. She
controls two—fire and water—though sometimes it seems like they control her.
After the accidental exposure of Elementals to humanity, Valerie finds
herself—and all of her kind—struggling to attain equality. Three different
groups fight to secure leadership, and with all of their hidden agendas, she
doesn’t know which side to choose. The balance between peaceful cohabitation
and all-out war is precarious, at best.
When a chance meeting brings Val and earth Elemental Cade Landston
back together, everything changes. She realizes what she knew in the
beginning—that he’s the one she wants. Her desire to win him over draws her
closer to him, and his vengeful mission to hunt down her murderous grandfather
brings them both closer to trouble.
From mysterious doppelgangers to reckless rescue missions,
scapegoat bombings, and evolving Elemental powers, Valerie strains to keep
up.
All she knows is she must stop her grandfather at all costs. To do
so, she has to figure out the truth. But how can she, when almost everyone she
knows has been telling lies?

Where I see my writing career in five
years
Ideally, in five-ish years,
I’d love to see myself extremely successful as an author. Multiple series in
print, maybe a movie deal, making enough money to truly live off of... lol
But seriously, I’d settle
for the latter. It’s my goal and intent to make a career out of writing fantasy
romance fiction. Part of being successful in this career, in my mind, involves
earning a respectable wage. If I can write a book, or a series of books, that
really serve to establish me as a solid and reputable writer, then I’ll
certainly be well on my way.
If I did ever get that
elusive book-to-movie deal, though, would I quit writing because I’ve found a
‘get rich quick’ fix? Hell no!
I genuinely enjoy writing
fiction, and expressing myself through art – even though I’m not always very
good at it. There are techniques I’ve yet to master, and I’m fully aware of those
shortcomings. Rather than giving up, though, I want to continually learn and
improve until I am the best I can possibly be. I want each book to be better
than the last. And then, why stop there? Once you’re the best, why not keep
publishing bestseller after bestseller? Do it for your loyal readers, breathlessly
awaiting on your next new release. Do it because if you weren’t writing, you’d
have no idea what else to do with yourself.
Five years from now, I hope
I’ll be talking about my flourishing writing career and how incredible it is to
look back on articles like these, when my dreams had not yet come true.
But if five years go by, and
I’m still cruising along at the same pace as I am now, then I can honestly say
that I’ll at least still be happy to be creating fiction. Writing is something
I’ve loved to do for, like, fifteen years!
Anything that can get that much passion and dedication out of me, is something
extremely special, indeed.
And if, by some unfortunate
turn of fate, I’m no longer publishing fiction at all, then at least I can say I was brave enough to follow my
dreams in the first place. Aside from being a wife and mother, there’s no
accomplishment I’m prouder of.
