Hanami by V.C. Buckley #AHAgrp #MFRWauthor

TGIF! Welcome to my last blog post of the week with V.C. Buckley and her release, Hanami. What an intriguing excerpt and very interesting book cover! So, Verns, tell us about this book!

SAKURA SHINTANI is the Dragon Clan heir-Japan's most notorious crime dynasty. But can she keep this fact a secret from the prying brats of Oniyuri Academy? She attempts to stay out of their radar while mastering her demons and keeping her murderous temper under control, but having the face of an angel only attracts everyone's attention... including the arrogant heir to Asia's most powerful tycoon, KENJIN KIYOHARA. He senses the danger, but Sakura is too interesting to be left alone.

Excerpt:

Jin rolled his eyes, settling his gaze back on the girl. He wasn’t surprised with their reaction.
The new girl was hot, but so what? It took more than a pretty face to get his attention. He wasn’t that easy to impress, and he was certain she’d be throwing herself at him anyway. Just like everybody else. He was sure this girl wasn’t any different from the love-crazed hyenas that stalked him.
Jin pushed back his shoulders, seeing her start towards him with her eyes still trailing on the ground.
Already? Jin thought, suppressing a laugh. He crossed his arms, waiting for her to get closer, and sure enough she stopped right in front of him. She was even prettier up close. Asian but with a hint of Caucasian mixed in.
“What?” he asked, smirking. He already knew what she might say: whether he was Kenjin Kiyohara, the sole heir to Kiyohara Industries? The questions were all the same. He thought she would have at least waited until class was over like the rest of them.
“Move your feet. You’re blocking my way,” the girl said in a sharp tone. She shifted her gaze up at him like a threatening knife. Her topaz-colored eyes darkened, sending icy tremors down his back. He felt as if he’d been hit by a curse as his mind turned blank.
When she finally looked away, Jin was able to regain his senses. He tucked his legs out of her way, and she passed, leaving goosebumps in her wake. His eyes followed her, waiting to see if she’d look back, but she never did. Jin’s hands were trembling. His thoughts became jumbled while he struggled not to look anymore.
What was that? What just happened? This was a first for him. He couldn’t contain himself. His presence had no impact whatsoever. Instead she looked like she wanted to kill him!
Jin took a deep breath, replaying the moment in his head. Who was this girl? She sure got his attention, all right—and it left him in pieces. He fought the urge to look back again.
This girl…Jin thought. There was something about her. He couldn’t shake off the feeling. She seemed dangerous.

If a Seer have told me that my husband will ever come back to me i would not have believed, he left the house on 14 of february to stay with another woman and left me and our 2 kids since 4months now, i tried to find out what i have done wrong that will make him leave the house then i found out that he has a mistress who have taken all his love and attention. when i call he won`t take my call, when i text he will will read it and not reply back. i was becoming emotionally affected not knowing what to do that will bring him back to me. i have to tell it to my friend who told to seek help from a Love spell temple, he referred me through the address 24hrslovespell@gmail.com i ordered a reuniting love spell from the spell caster and it worked just as i desire it. so my husband came back home without me having to call him. i am so excited all thanks to Dr. Shola of 24hrslovespell@gmail.com or visit it website lovespellsolutiontemple.webs.com
