GYPSY HUNTED Tour & Giveaway

Gypsy Hunted

by Andrea Drew

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Reluctant psychic Gypsy Shields—she prefers the term "intuition consultant"—finds herself in trouble when, on her way home from a blind date, she interrupts a kidnapping in progress. She attempts to intervene, and her heroics are repaid with a collision between the attacker's van and a brick wall. She awakens in the hospital, paralyzed on her left side and unable to speak. This also means she's unable to share her vital information as a witness. Fortunately, she is able to use her telepathic connection with her niece to throw a line out to a police detective she knows: Connor Reardon, her blind date.

Connor will do anything to protect Gypsy, and he listens to her claims of psychic power willingly, as he's concealing certain powers of his own. Nor are they all he's concealing. Gypsy senses a part of her new ally's mind is closed to her—what she cannot know is that Connor suspects the kidnapper is someone close to him, and the kidnapping victim holds secrets that will tear through Connor's department, putting careers and lives at risk. Including Gypsy, still in hospital and vulnerable as the attacker turns his sights on her once again.

Can she use her powers to track down the perpetrator and prevent her own murder?

Excerpt One:

As a telepath, I pick up on feelings and instinct more than most. Other people like to call me a psychic medium, but I’m not really comfortable with the label.  Apart from the fact that I do it for love, not money, I’m sure once someone learns I’m a telepath they conjure up images of dodgy fraudsters on stage at mass events, feeding grieving families what they desperately need. I’d rather not expose myself to more ridicule than necessary. My abilities happened almost by accident—apparently my grandmother was ‘fey,’ as my mother enjoyed mentioning.

I was sure the pinging, nagging doubt had something to do with Aaron’s home life. “What about you, Gypsy? What do you do?” Connor relaxed his posture, the glass poised before his mouth. He had taken on a different look, probably from the wine, or even better, from unfulfilled lust.

“I write business plans. I’ve also been told I have pretty damn good intuition.”

That seemed to spark Connor’s interest.  He pulled at the other earlobe.

“Oh yeah? What does your intuition tell you about me, then?”

“That you seem like a nice enough guy.”

Connor moistened his lips, which quivered with what I suspected was amusement as he sat legs wide apart

“And?”

“And you’re fishing for compliments that I’m not going to give you just yet.”

Connor threw his head back, indulging in a belly laugh. The rich, throaty sound filled me with pleasure. A smile I couldn’t suppress burst through.

“That’s a fair call, Gypsy, fair call.”

The silence was a comfortable one, our shared joke establishing the early threads of friendship.

Topic: Was writing a long time dream to reality for you or did you have another dream for your career and discovered that you have a very natural talent for witting that made you change paths of your future?

Writing was a longtime dream of mine, with quite a few years through in between dream and making it a reality.  I knew from a very young age I wanted to be a writer, I loved reading and writing so much it was all I wanted to do.

            At the age of about 7 I told my Mum I was going to be a writer.  When you’re a child, all everyone seems to ask you about is what you’re going to be when you grow up.  When I told Mum I would be a writer she looked devastated.  She told me I would be poor, dressed in rags and if I grew up to have a family we would all starve. 

            As a 7 year old practically everything my parents said I took as gospel.  I believed her whole heartedly and was horrified.  There was no way I was going to be a writer if it meant living like that.

            I asked Mum what I should do instead.  She said “be a secretary”

            So at the age of 18 guess which field I moved into?  Yep you guessed it secretarial work.

Through high school I was encouraged of course to pursue into as a career but became a secretary until at the age of 28, pregnant with our first child I decided not to go back to employed work.  I started a resume writing business.  I figured it was the closest I could come to writing and earning money.

            Around 2012 I wrote my first nonfiction title Pro Resumes Made Easy.  It sold well and has now been read by 40,000 words.  I still wanted to write my long dreamt of novel but around 2013 realized the only reason I hadn’t started was fear.  What if I really couldn’t write fiction?  What if I, my family and friends were wrong too and my writing was rubbish.  After a false start, in June 2014 I finished my first novel Gypsy Hunted.  The editing process was complete by October and it was released on October 28.  Feedback so far has been positive, and I’m glad readers are enjoying it as much as I hoped they would.

            As for me, I’ll go back to writing the next book Gypsy Cradle for now J
