Today, we’re talking about the amazing urban fantasy, Bound by Spells.
Bound by Spells is book two in the Bound series and was
endorsed by USA Today’s Happy Ever After Blog, where Serena Chase said, "Featuring
a cast of mages and shapeshifters with unique magical abilities, one
destiny-shaping prophecy, a genocidal megalomaniac, and a budding, heated
romance (or two!), this book is paranormal gold! Read the first book in the
series first, of course, but once you finish this one you're sure to be
salivating for the next release in this not-to-be-missed romantic
paranormal series."
The great news for you guys is BOTH books in the Bound
series are on sale for 99 cents (US and UK) from June 11 – 14!
We caught up with the author, Stormy Smith, and asked her to
give us five non-spoiler facts we should know about Bound by Spells, and here
is what she had to say.
Bound by Spells, in
Five Words - List five words that describe Bound by Spells the best, and
tell us why.
Action – Bound by
Spells drops you right into the story and basically doesn’t quit. You’ll follow
Amelia and Aidan separately, but meet a lot of new faces and never stop
learning along the way.
Growth – Both
Amelia and Aidan are young, just eighteen and nineteen. They are still figuring
out who they are and what they are capable of. As the story progresses, you’re
going to see some significant change out of both of them.
Connections – As
a reader walking along with Amelia and Aidan, you’ll make a lot of connections
between what you learned in Bound by Duty and what the realities of their
situations truly are. You’ll also find the ties between some of our central
secondary characters.
Friendship – If
you were hoping to see Bethany again, of course I brought her back! But, there
are also a lot of new friends introduced, and the whole story is impacted by
friendships that were forged (or broken) years ago.
Love - Because at
the heart of every good story and complicated ending is love. Sometimes it is
between hearts, and sometimes it is the bond between people who are simply tied
together by the will of another. But love changes everything.

Bound by Duty
Synopsis: Amelia grew up in a world of half-truths. She knows she's an
Elder, but has no idea what that means. Her father reminds her daily that she
must maintain control, but he refuses to explain why. Even worse, she's
betrothed to the prince of the Immortals and doesn't even know his name.
Finally breaking free to live a few normal years at a
community college, the last thing Amelia expects is to find her best friend in
a cheeky southern girl, or fall for a self-assured human who sees her for who
she is, not what she will become.
As she learns more about herself, Amelia realizes the line
between love and duty is a thin one. As her power continues to increase
exponentially and her questions are slowly answered, Amelia must make the
ultimate choice. The question is, will her head win the battle, or her heart?
Bound by Spells
Synopsis: Aidan Montgomery hadn't been prepared for Amelia Bradbury to walk
in and then out of his life. He also hadn't expected to find the powerful magic
hidden deep within him for the last nineteen years, but he's embracing it --
finding more control and more answers every day. Now, with the help of Amelia's
best friend, Bethany, Aidan is on a quest to understand his destiny and find
Amelia.
Amelia decided to stand by her duty, which meant walking
away from her first chance at love. Trapped in Cresthaven at the Queen's mercy,
she spends her days with Micah -- an ally she still holds at arm's length --
struggling to manage her heartbreak while keeping her mind focused on the task
at hand. As she continues to unlock the secrets of the Keeper power, Queen
Julia's true motives reveal themselves, forcing Amelia to decide, yet again,
how much she's willing to sacrifice.
Will Aidan get to Amelia before it's too late, or will the
very power that sustains them keep them apart?

Bio: Stormy Smith
is the author of the Amazon best seller, Bound by Duty, and Bound by Spells.
She calls Iowa’s capital home now, but was raised in a tiny town in the
Southeast corner of the state. She grew to love books honestly, having a mom
that read voraciously and instilled that same love in her. She knew quickly
stories of fantasy were her favorite, and even as an adult gravitates toward
paranormal stories in any form.
Writing a book had never been an aspiration, but suddenly
the story was there and couldn’t be stopped. When she isn’t working on, or
thinking about, her books, Stormy’s favorite places include bar patios, live
music shows, her yoga mat or anywhere
