Author Spotlight Bryna

Here is another wonderful author behind the giveaway. She is a longtime friend and writes fun books with covers I envy. Check out her book on Amazon or on her website.

 

Bryna Butler's Bio:

Bryna Butler’s love of storytelling leads her heart to many fandoms. You will often find her online gushing about the latest movie/TV show/book or fondly reminiscing about the time she met Charlaine Harris and didn’t faint (barely). She believes strongly in the importance of staying positive and treating others with respect.

Bryna is a journalism-trained writer having authored hundreds of articles and financial publications before taking the leap into fiction in 2011. Her first book, Of Sun & Moon, skyrocketed to number one on Kindle top free charts in multiple categories in the U.S. and U.K. when the title went to free status in 2014 and again held #1 Teen Romantic Mystery on the Kindle Free charts in the U.S. in February 2020. The book also has a cameo in The Morganville Vampires web series, now streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Beth Crowley’s song, “The Dark,” was written for the Midnight Guardian series and has over 1.6 million views on YouTube.

Butler's young adult novels feature strong females and are woven from elements of horror, suspense, comedy, and mystery, all in a contemporary, small town setting. All of her books are considered parent-approved, safe reads for pre-teen as well as teen readers.

Here is the cover I am so JELLY over. Wish I'd seen it first. :) I haven't read this yet, but it is definitely on my TBR list. 

Blurb: When Eric Jansen takes a seat behind his drums, every girl in the place takes notice. Not that he is surprised. He has had decades to practice. The guy is almost perfect. Still, there is that one tiny thing… 

Eric is an alien. Offworlder. Take me to your leader, fall from the sky, space invading, phoning home, UFO jockey. Hiding out as a teenager in the local garage band, a swipe of the tattoo on his arm will reveal his true form. Locals call him Mothman, a winged creature formed of ashen gray skin and glowing red eyes whose hunger can only be satisfied by one thing … vampires. 

When the unknown surfaces in the sleepy river town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, Eric would rather keep playing his drums, but there is no stopping his book blogging best friend or his men in black handler from dragging him into another mystery. 

Are you ready for some campy fun? Fans of Doctor Who and The Dresden Files will love the Mothman Mysteries, suspenseful teen paranormal mysteries with a sci-fi twist. Find out about Bryna's other books HERE on Amazon. or HERE on her website.
