Celebrating A Sexy New Sci Fi Fairy Tale From Sandra Sookoo

Today on our Cyber Launch Party Blog, we're celebrating a sexy sci fi fairy tale from Sandra Sookoo.

FRACTURED by Sandra Sookoo

Major Rick Keenan has a difficult mission: repair his broken shuttle, rescue a missing crew member and get off a near-dead planet. Angry that the U.S. is discontinuing the space program, he wants to find a discovery that will revise the government's position. Unfortunately, that discovery might just kill him, not to mention put his libido, on a quick launch sequence.

Marin is one of the last of her people. Forced to flee to the planet in her childhood, she's kept herself hidden away in darkness, safe in a castle-like fortress, only coming out when she needs to feed--from human blood. Convinced she'll never fit in, she shuns all contact, yet taking Rick hostage as a food source chips away at her perceptions even as he ignites her desire.

Though their differences threaten to tear them apart, their humanity binds them together. In a world where only the strong and determined survive, does a happily ever after stand a chance?

  2. Thanks for having me here today!

    Fractured came about because I wanted to put a different spin on the Beauty and the Beast tale. It also combines another fairy tale...but you'll have to read it to see if you can guess :-) I also didn't want the Beast to stop being who they were, but live with it.

    And yeah, I'm busy. Right now, I'm alternating writing the first of a new contemporary series and my 4th re-imagined fairy tale.

  7. Hi Terri :-)

    Is it easy switching genres? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It takes a couple of days to assimilate myself into another genre. My favorite genre to read is cozy mysteries. To write? I love any sort of romance.

  12. Hi!

    Congratulations on your newest release!

    Do you keep a writing schedule or do you go with the flow? In another month or so, I want to go back to work on my book and I know some authors don't get out of their chair until they have reached a certain word count.

  14. Hi Tamara :-) Do I work on more than one book at a time? Normally, I don't like to, but as of right now, I'm writing two novellas at the same time. I'll do a chapter in one then switch and do a chapter in the next lol

  15. Hi Dreamer :-) Yes, I have a schedule. I write during certain days of the week, and try to get in 2K a day. sometimes I hit that mark easier than others :-)

  16. Hi Sandra, How do you map out your worlds? How do you keep it all straight?

  17. Hi Debby :-) How do I keep my worlds straight? It's a bit easier for me because I write across a few genres; therefore, I don't have multiple same-genre series :-) I do keep detailed notes though.

  18. Ooh, I do like Beauty and the Beast stories, and love the twist it sounds like this one has! Did I see properly that this is part of a series? Are there a set number in mind? What can we look forward to next?

  19. Hi Fedora. The Silver Slippers line is an imprint of Liquid Silver Books. I had a story release in that line last December called Wishful Thinking (which was a retelling of Rumpelstiltskin). Fractured is my next and I have another contracted. I'm not sure of any of the other titles in the line :-)

  20. Interesting, you say this is a twist on Beauty and the Beast. I am really intrigued to find out the other fairy tale you used. Thanks for the awesome giveaway.

  21. Hi Jen. Yes, B & TB is my favorite fairy tale, but in the final product, my editor pointed out I'd included another fairy tale as well. :-)

  22. I enjoy reading reimagined fairy tales. I prefer HEA even if the situation is not traditional.
