There are descendants
of angels walking among us. Ember is one of them.
Embers is an epic
paranormal adventure/romance about a seventeen year old girl who discovers that
she's immune to fire and any other injury when she’s in a horrific car crash
that kills her parents. Following a violent episode with her aunt's boyfriend,
Ember flees Ohio to live with an old relative in the Smoky Mountains of
Tennessee. Ember's exuberance at escaping a bad home life soon turns to
trepidation when she learns that she's a Watcher, a descendant of angels.
While Ember is
instructed about her heritage and the powers that go along with it, she strikes
up friendships with two teenagers who live in a frightening walled compound in
the forest. Inexplicitly drawn to one of the young men in particular, an
impossible romance develops. But it's cut short when Ember discovers that her
new friends are fighting on the opposite side of a war that's been raging
between two factions of Watchers for thousands of years. When the compound’s inhabitants
threaten the townspeople, Ember takes action, sealing her fate in the ancient
battle of good versus evil, and the grayness in between. Ember is up to the
challenge, until she realizes that she isn’t only fighting for the lives of the
locals and the souls of her new friends. She may be one of the few champions
willing to make a stand for all of mankind as the rapture approaches and the
end of days begin.
Embers is the first
novel in the dark and gritty YA paranormal romance series, The Wings of War.
“An impending
apocalypse provides a compelling backdrop for romance in this page-turning
first installment of a new YA series. Hopkins expertly weaves her plotlines
together in this compulsively readable teen romance story…Hopkins delivers many
successful elements of young-adult romance—appealing lead characters,
high-voltage chemistry, repressed sexuality—which will win her ardent
followers." Kirkus Reviews
“Embers is the start
of an action-packed paranormal YA series. Ms. Hopkins draws the reader immediately
in with her richly drawn prologue that introduces the lurking evil in a
breath-taking manner. A must read for YA, paranormal, fantasy and suspense
fans. Make that a delight for any reader!" Morgan Stamm, Ind'Tale Magazine

About Karen:
Lamb to the
Slaughter, the first book in Serenity’s Plain Secrets, is Karen’s newest Amish
endeavor, opening up the darker, grittier and more secretive lives of Amish
society. It’s a story about the intertwining lives of three unlikely people in
an Indiana Amish Community and the devastating results when a rebellious
teenage girl is found shot to death in a corn field during the harvest.
Serenity Adams is the newly elected young sheriff in the rural town of Blood
Rock, and besides dealing with the threatening behavior of her predecessor, she
now has a dead Amish girl on her plate.
At first glance, the case seems obvious. The poor girl was probably
accidently shot during hunting season, but when the elders of the Amish
community, and even the girl’s parents, react with uncaring subdued behavior,
Serenity becomes suspicious. As she delves deeper into the secretive community
that she grew up beside, she discovers a gruesome crime from the past that may
very well be related to the Amish girl’s shooting. Serenity enlists the help of
the handsome bad-boy building contractor, Daniel Bachman. He left the Amish
when he was nineteen and has his own dark reasons to help the spunky sheriff
solve the crime that the family and friends who shunned him are trying
desperately to cover up. Serenity’s
persistence leads her to a stunning discovery that not only threatens to
destroy her blossoming romance with Daniel, but may even take her life in the
end.
Karen’s YA
paranormal/urban fantasy series, the Wings of War, is an epic story about
Ember, whose normal life ends abruptly when her parents are killed and she
discovers she’s a descendent of angels. Still coping with her strange powers,
Ember finds herself — and her heart — in the middle of a centuries-old war in
this “compulsively readable” novel (Kirkus Reviews).
Karen grew up about a
mile from Lake Ontario in Upstate New York.
She was bitten by the horse bug at the age of five, and after diligently
taking riding lessons for several years, was rewarded with her first horse at
the age of eleven. The feisty horse’s
name was Lady, a Quarter Horse-Thoroughbred cross, who became Karen’s steadfast
companion. Through the years, the
constant force in her life was horses.
Eventually, she found her place as a riding instructor herself. Before accepting her fate in the barnyard,
she worked a short stint as a paralegal, traveled abroad, and guided tourists
on horseback riding tours in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee.
Karen is currently
working on her bestselling Amish mystery series, Serenity's Plain Secrets,
along with the YA paranormal/fantasy series, the Wings of War. Karen is also
excited to announce there will be more books in the Temptation series.
