The Renaissance of Hetty Locklear Celebration

M. Pax has a special celebration planned for her new release!


The Renaissance of Hetty Locklear

A New Adult Urban Fantasy, The Renaissance of Hetty Locklear is the first book in a new series. And it’s now out! The main character, Hetty, is a twenty-two-year-old, stumbling about in an effort to become a full-fledged adult. She struggles with self-esteem, weight, relationships, and making the transition between college and the real world.

Graduation from community college isn’t the magic elixir Hetty Locklear counts on for becoming an adult. Her parents, who work the Renaissance fair circuit, insist she spend part of the summer with them. Hetty doubts pretending to live in the Middle Ages will help her find her way.

To make it worse, an entity haunts her at her dead-end job, warning her of a dangerous man she doesn’t know. The ghost leads her to a lover who has a lot of secrets. He pulls her farther into peril and into a strange, hidden world of genetic experimentation.

New Adult Urban Fantasy with a contemporary sci-fi twist. Mature content.

Available as an ebook at Amazon Amazon UK Smashwords iTunes Kobo
Visit M. Pax’s site for more links.

M. Pax is celebrating her latest release with a jousting tournament and contest at her website. Cheer for the knights to help them win the grand prize, and you’ll be put in a drawing to win an ebook copy of The Renaissance of Hetty Locklear. Five will be given away. Huzzah!

Please go cheer on the knights!


I am also setting up a small blog tour for the release of How to Publish and Promote Your Book Now! I’m looking for host sites that appeal to writers for these dates: February 7, 15, and 18. Thanks!

I don't read my Y.A. but I'll have to recommend the book to my sons (ages 19 and 22), my 11 year old might still be to young for the content. FWIW, the story sounds interesting. Best of luck, M. Pax.

I've never hosted a guest blog, and I don't know how to, but I'm sure I could figure it out if you're interested.

Jousting tournament? How fun! I loved the movie A Knight's Tale, featuring jousting events with the late Heath Ledger. And M Pax's book looks interesting and something my daughters will like. Perfect for a Chrismas gift. Thanks!

Ellie Garratt said...

I love your header and congratulations on your book - definitely one I will be buying.

I realised today I never replied to your kind offer to post about Passing Time on its publication day. Think you! I have put you on my list. Unfortunately, I can't help you with your blog tour as it clashes with mine but if you want me to help in any other way (launch day etc) then just let me know.
