Jayna is about to graduate from high school and embark on an exciting journey in higher education – or so she thinks.

Excerpt:
 



And then she saw him with fresh eyes. Ethan was tall, well-muscled and had a chiseled face, high cheek bones and full lips, but his eyes were his most prominent feature; they sparkled with an inner light and were framed by a set of eyelashes any girl could kill for.
Why don’t I meet a guy like this in real life?
Duhhh, because he isn’t real, she reminded herself.  He is a figment of my imagination, so I made him as hot as I could imagine. Uhh, I sure wish he was real.
She had lagged just a bit behind Ethan where she had a close-up view of his sexy back, his wide shoulders and ripped muscles. Her heart gave a little lurch. She wondered what it would be like to be wrapped in those arms.
Ethan turned around and winked at her. Jayna went beet red.
I am sure I didn’t say those things out loud, she thought. There is no way he heard my thoughts… but why did he wink at me?
Ethan began whistling a happy tune.
It’s my lucky day! He thought to himself puffing out his chest. The girl that made him go gaga minutes earlier was fantasizing about him. Wow, she was just as attracted to him as he was to her. His blood boiled with excitement. Jayna didn’t know much about the Astral world and was broadcasting her thoughts as if she was shouting them from rooftops. Ethan had heard everything loud and clear.
“Coming, Jayna,” he asked, a huge grin on his face.
Jayna picked up her pace.
What am I missing here? Why do I feel like he is laughing at me?

Interview With Author Meltem Y.K.
 



What inspired you to write The Astral Ordinance?

 
I’ve always been a closet mystic. Writing the Astral ordinance was a way for me to take it to the next step and endow my characters with some very advanced mystical skills.
 
Tell us about the main characters in the story. Who are Jayna and Ethan?
 
Jayna and Ethan are two advanced souls who were born to achieve great things on Earth. They meet in the Astral dimension and fell in love, but they are forbidden to see each other on the Earth plane – for a very good reason.
 
What are a couple of your favorite books/authors?
 
I read every book that was written by Robert Ludlum. I love David Morrell, but none of these authors wrote paranormal. If they did, I would be in heaven reading their books.
 
What do you do when not writing?
 
I actually have a very busy life. I work full-time at a university; I have a family and a young son who still needs his mommy at bedtime.
 
What’s next for you as a writer?
 
The Astral Ordinance is a series; I am currently writing Book III. I am sure there will be more as the story is unfolding faster than I can write and all these characters are urging me to make them come to life in print. In order to keep up with the demand of my characters, I am also writing short stories about them as complements to the series.
 
Do you have any advice for new writers just entering the shark infested waters?
 
Yes. I would give them David Morrell’s advice, which is “Write the story that only you can write.” Don’t try to guess what people want to read. Write what you would like to read so that you can keep your own interest. I can’t imagine writing a book that didn’t have paranormal in it. It just wouldn’t be my book.
