Percy & Annabeth

How did they get together? They met at Half-Blood Hill and faced their first quest together.

What attracts them to each other? The camaraderie they share while getting through dangerous quests gives them a great foundation as a couple.

Why do they make such a timeless couple? Being demigods and battling for what they believe in, makes them a timeless couple.

What are some of the problems they faced because them being a couple? The fact that they are supposed to be enemies just because their parents are.

Bella & Edward

How did they get together? Bella moved to Forks, WA, in the second semester of her junior year in high school. Edward was also a junior. They met in Biology class where Bella’s scent was so addicting to Edward he almost killed her right there.

What attracts them to each other? The fact that Edward cannot read Bella’s mind made him want to get to know her. Also the fact that her blood is like heroine to him is highly attractive. Bella is attracted to Edward almost immediately, she senses that he is different and accepts him without a fault.

Why do they make such a timeless couple? The fact that they ’shouldn’t’ be together makes them timeless. They are hunter and prey always disrupting the balance of nature but somehow love pulls them through.

What are some of the problems they faced because of being a couple? The constant reminder of Bella’s mortality is a problem because Edward has to be careful not to physically harm her. Also, bringing a mortal into his world makes other vampires want her to hurt him and the Cullens.

Melissa answers the top ten fan questions from across the continent about her series, her favorite characters and her advice to aspiring writers!

About Wicked Lovely book 1.

Rule #3: Don’t stare at invisible faeries.

Aislinn has always seen faeries. Powerful and dangerous, they walk hidden in mortal world. Aislinn fears their cruelty—especially if they learn of her Sight—and wishes she were as blind to their presence as other teens.

Rule #2: Don’t speak to invisible faeries.

Now faeries are stalking her. One of them, Keenan, who is equal parts terrifying and alluring, is trying to talk to her, asking questions Aislinn is afraid to answer.

Rule #1: Don’t ever attract their attention.

Ink Exchange book 2

Unbeknownst to mortals, a power struggle is unfolding in a world of shadows and danger. After centuries of stability, the balance among the Faery Courts has altered, and Irial, ruler of the Dark Court, is battling to hold his rebellious and newly vulnerable fey together. If he fails, bloodshed and brutality will follow.

Fragile Eternity book 3

Seth never expected he would want to settle down with anyone—but that was before Aislinn. She is everything he’d ever dreamed of, and he wants to be with her forever. Forever takes on new meaning, though, when your girlfriend is an immortal faery queen.
