The 411 on THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS: At Christmastime, it’s hard not to get caught up in the shopping, the decorating, the party planning and the family drama—and too we often to lose sight of the true meaning of the season. But sometimes, through God’s grace or a simple twist of fate, we’re able to step back and understand what the holiday is truly about.

Congrats Rosemary!

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

The Knight Agency would like to give a big congratulations to Rosemary Clement-Moore for her latest yound adult release, Texas Gothic, making it onto the Kirkus Review’s Best TEnn Books of 2011 list! WOOHOO! We absolutely loved this book from the start here at TKA, and are overjoyed tha tit is receiving such well-deserved praise. Go Rosemary!

The 411 on TEXAS GOTHIC: Amy Goonight’s family is far from normal. She comes from a line of witches, but tries her best to stay far outside the family business. Her summer gig? Ranch-sitting for her aunt with her wacky but beautiful sister. Only the Goodnight Ranch is even less normal than it normally is. Bodies are being discovered, a ghost is on the prowl, and everywhere she turns, the hot neighbor cowboy is in her face.

“A deeply affectionate rendering of Texas landscapes and legends combines with an appealing cast of well-developed characters to give texture to this well-plotted mystery: truly scary moments are balanced by the humorous bumbles of the awkwardly developing romance between Amy and Ben, as well as Phin’s sublime cluelessness about the way her eccentricities appear to other people. The mystery itself is a richly imagined interpolation on documented history and lore of the area; readers who’ve outgrown the silliness but not the adventure of Scooby-Doo will thoroughly enjoy this.” –The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
“This engaging mystery has plenty of both paranormal and romance, spiced with loving families and satisfyingly packed with self-sufficient, competent girls.” –Kirkus, Starred Review

“Teen looking for a rollicking adventure filled with paranormal events, dastardly evildoers, and laugh-out-loud moments as Amy and Ben argue and snipe their way to love will adore this book.” –School Library Journal, Starred Review

When her patron is murdered, she becomes the prime suspect, which sends her running into the mortal world…and into the arms of Malkolm, an outcast vampire cursed to kill every being from whom he drinks.

Now, Chrysabelle and Malkolm must work together to stop a plot to merge the mortal and supernatural worlds. If they fail, a chaos unlike anything anyone has ever seen will threaten to reign.

TWISTED Tour Stop!

Friday, September 2nd, 2011

We’ve finally made it to the last day of the TWISTED Tour! Along the way we’ve learned Rachel Caine had an affinity for butterfly necklaces as a teen, Marley Gibson owned a zoot suit (yes, seriously), Linda Gerber once dreamed of being a travel agent/historian, Chloe Neill had aspirations of becoming a famous artiste, and to this day anytime Love Shack by the B52s is played Rosemary Clement-Moore immediately reports to the nearest dance floor. Also, Tina Ferraro reminisced about dancing under the stars with the cutest boy ever on her best night ever, and Jonathan Friesen recalled a little local phenomenon known as Prince being the toughest ticket in town. We also visited the sites of the ah-mazing PC Cast, Julie Kagawa, and of course, our headlining act — TWISTED author Gena Showalter.

We hope you enjoyed rocking out with us because we thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with you! Below, you’ll find the last ticket we’re handing out on this ride, and as a special treat a few folks from the TKA team are sharing some of their own teen pics. So, get a good laugh in before you grab name of the image and make haste to www.knightagency.net/twistedtour.php. Entries will be accepted up until Sunday, September 4th at 11:59pm ET. Next week we will find out who will be the winner of an epic prize – a $250 Ticketmaster Gift Card, $100 American Eagle Outfitters Gift Card, a $100 Visa Gift Card for Dinner and a Glam Urban Decay Makeup Gift Set!

Deidre Knight accepting her diploma in super shiny stockings.

Elaine Spencer showing her early love of interior design with super cool matching bedding, curtains and valances. So chic!

Apparently, Lucienne Diver was a a big hair fan. Those bangs are reaching for the sky.

Melissa Jeglinski thinks (and looks like) she’s tough stuff in her jazz outfit.

Marketing Director Jia Gayles, overly excited at the time about recent weight loss, chose a way too short shirt. Somewhere a small child is missing their sweater. Sadness.
TWISTED TOUR FULL INSTRUCTIONS:
How do you define the “Best Night Ever?” Does going on a mini shopping spree for a chic new outfit, dinner out with your bestie and seeing your favorite music act live in concert sound like it would do the trick? If so, read on!

To celebrate the release of, TWISTED, the third book in her Intertwined series featuring Aden Stone, Gena Showalter is rocking out with her author buds on The TWISTED Tour. The tour spans almost two weeks and 11 author websites, including this one, from August 22nd through September 2nd. The Grand Prize winner will be awarded all the essentials for a perfect night out, including:

- $250 Ticketmaster Gift Card
- $100 American Eagle Outfitters Gift Card
- $100 Visa Gift Card for Dinner
- Glam Urban Decay Makeup Gift Set

A Second Prize winner will receive an autographed set of Gena’s Intertwined series, including INTERTWINED, UNRAVELED and TWISTED.

HOW TO PLAY: Visit www.knightagency.net/twistedtour.php and check the tour schedule. Visit the sites of each author on their assigned tour date and locate the concert ticket image.

At the end of the tour, fill out the form on the aforementioned TWISTED Tour contest webpage by matching the images you found to the authors’ websites that they were located on before Sunday, September 4th at 11:59pm ET. The winners will be randomly drawn and notified on or around September 9th, 2011.

The 411 on TWISTED: His vampire girlfriend might have brought him back to life, but he’s never felt more out of control. There’s a darkness within him, something taking over…changing him. Worse, because he was meant to die, death now stalks him at every turn. Any day could be his last.

Once upon a time, the three souls trapped inside his head could have helped him. He could have protected himself. But as the darkness grows stronger, the souls grow weaker—just like his girlfriend. The more vampire Aden becomes, the more human Victoria becomes, until everything they know and love is threatened.

Life couldn’t get any worse. Could it?
