Book Blurb:
Three days ago, Claire was a wife, a mother, and very much alive… then the music called for her.
Claire has one goal for the conference– to land a few whales so that her boss will give her a badly needed raise. She pitches and prays while courting the music industry elite until her plans are derailed by hotness-in-high-heels.
Bette is at the conference on a mission–to find a human with untapped talents that she can mold and control. Bette uses her cursed violin to lure Claire in with a haunting song, which unravels Claire’s life as her new talents emerge. To make matters worse, Claire is attracted to two unlikely people– Bette and her hunky associate, Gregor. Both can light Claire’s fire, but is either of them the only one?
Unfortunately for Claire, life isn’t all song lyrics and seduction. Tied to darkness by blood and power, Claire must harness her abilities if she has any hope of returning home to her daughter and regaining her former life… if that’s what she really wants.
Kill Me, the debut novel from author Alex Owens, is a quirky paranormal fantasy complete with music, magic, fangs and freaks. It is also the first in a planned series, with the second book due out by the Fall of 2012. Be forewarned, this is not your daughter’s paranormal.
Reviews:
“The writing style is easy to read. In fact, I found myself reading for longer periods of time than I normally do… The biggest thing for me that brought it down to a 4 (star) from a 5 (star) was the amount of sexual material.”

“Overall, the story has great character development, a healthy dose of romantic entanglements, and an intriguing start to what is to be a fabulous series.”
