Paranormal Romance

Roll up! Roll up! Join us for the greatest
show on Earth!
The magical Jolly Carnival is the only life Rilla Jolly knows—and it’s all falling apart around her. Just as she’s thrust into the role of Ringmaster after her father’s unexpected death, an old family friend turns up to challenge her birthright.
Her rival's sexy son Jack isn’t helping either. Despite being a greenhorn and an outsider, he’s intent on charming everyone, convincing them that Rilla isn’t up to the task. It’s not going to be easy to persuade the Carnival folk she’s still the best choice to lead them all.
But Rilla must also contend with another threat—the ongoing sabotage that has been disturbing their delicate magical balance and threatening to destroy the Carnival. All signs point to an insider, making it impossible to know who to trust.
To save her beloved Carnival, Rilla must do everything in her power to find the saboteur before they attack again—but if she takes her eye off the battle for Ringmaster for even a second, she risks losing the one thing she’s trained for her entire life.

Review:
I wasn't really sure I'd like this book, I mean I have some super serious clown fear afterall! Clowns usually can be found at carnivals...right? BUT I had this crazy urge to read this, and I'm glad that I did!
I really could not put this book down. It was fun, interesting, and well written. My only real complaint is that it ended! I can't wait to see what Trudi Jaye has in store for us in the next one!
Trudi Jaye
I’ve always
loved books, and the stories they bring to life in my head. I’ve always had an
overactive imagination as well, and distinctly remember sitting at the base of
the big oak tree at school when I was a kid, building houses for the fairies,
telling their stories as I went.
Born and
raised in New Zealand, I have also lived in the UK, US, and Denmark. I love to
meet new people; it’s a fantastic way to gain exposure to new ideas and
cultures and, of course, to get story ideas.
For the last
ten years I’ve been a magazine writer, and currently I get to write about
innovative and cutting-edge research for a tertiary institution in New Zealand.
It’s an inspiring job, talking to people about their passion, and I try to tell
their stories in the best possible way.
I live in a
secluded haven amongst the trees in Auckland with my lovely husband and cheeky
three-year-old daughter. I enjoy yoga, although I’m not very bendy, and karate,
although I don’t like the idea of hitting anyone. It’s about pushing my boundaries,
and both those activities are physical, in a way that my work as a writer
isn’t.
I’ve worked
as a camp counsellor, a waitress, a checkout girl, a citizenship officer and an
editor. But none of those jobs compares to being able to call myself a writer.

Wow, thanks for the review, much appreciated! (And I'm glad you liked it...) The second book is finished and with my editor, so hopefully will be up soon as well.
