I'm so pleased that C.L. Marin is with us today to share a bit about her new paranormal romance, Maiden!
Thank
you for letting me speak today about my debut novel, MAIDEN. This is the last
day of my blog tour so let’s dig a little deeper into its pages.
Tara is
like a lot of kids today—growing up without a dad or at least a dad who plays
an active roll in her life. She feels like she’s not “good enough” for him to
love, and if she was just “better” maybe he could. Maybe he’d never want to be
without her. Sorry to all of you reading this...you’ll just have to purchase
MAIDEN to find out how Tara’s relationship with her father works out, but I
want to tell every young man and woman that DNA DOES NOT MAKE A DAD!
Something
I think about while I’m putting my poor characters through hell is; what
doesn’t kill us makes us stronger. Tara struggles but she must learn from every
painful hardship. So should you. And, hey, at least you’re not fighting Stygian Imps along the way! Don’t let the
actions of another human being—or witch—who calls himself your dad, define you.
Rise above it. Besides, just think of the advantage you’ll have over the other
survivors of the apocalypse. People will turn to YOU for direction because
you’re a survivor—a warrior—you’ll eat cold beans from a can by a dumpster-fire
a call it fillet mignon! Sorry…I got a little carried away.
I’m not
someone who has an absentee father. My dad has been in my life, married to my
mom, since I breathed my first breath. I have, however, seen the effects it can
have on the most innocent of people. Take a lesson from Tara, and whether you
make amends with the guy or not, grow and be strong, and know you are a
brilliant person, not in spite of, but because
of the life experiences you have.

Tara secretly wished her estranged father would want
her around, so when he unexpectedly contacted her, she agreed to get
reacquainted. That wish turned into a nightmare. She learned that she is an
Authentic Witch—the Maiden of the Moodus Coven—and the key to obliterating the
black magic Haddam coven.
Tara’s mother took her into hiding when she was small
in order to keep her alive but the Haddam’s found her. Now Tara must trust the
help she’s found in her three close friends, one mystifying new love, and a
father she barely knows as she fights for the life of her mother using a power
she doesn’t yet understand.
And one of those trusts might cost Tara her life.
