Fading Away Dannielle Wicks Release Blitz








Fading Away


Hardest Mistakes Book 1

Release Day April 7th












One night.


One stupid mistake.


Changes everything.





SAMMY STEVENS was tragically orphaned at the age of nine

and sent to live with a foster family in the town of Miakoda Falls.


She’s constantly bullied at school by the arrogant,

selfish, one and only… KAI JORDAN.


Kai is your typical entitled teen who’s on the verge of

attending a university and having everything he ever wanted handed to him.





But all that changes when he is involved in a car

accident after a night of partying…


He’s suddenly and painfully brought into the world of the

supernatural.


Kai turns to the last person he ever would’ve expected,

Sammy, as he struggles with his new identity and watches the people closest to

him move on. And he is forgotten.







As Kai and Sammy grow closer, Kai must figure out a way

to either fight to stay human or risk being stuck forever, as a prisoner of his

own body…










Excerpt


-- My door swings open before I reach it and I smack into

a naked chest.


“Oh. Sorry.” My face heats up in embarrassment. Kai

smirks down at me and walks past. “Hey!


Where are you going?”


He doesn’t stop as he looks over his shoulder. “I heard

Ashlee leave.”


“Kai! Come back here!” I yell and follow after him down the

stairs and into the main hallway. “You can’t just walk around the house. What

if Ashlee comes home? She’s not going to knock; she’s just going to walk in.

This is her house. Besides, she said she would be right back.”


Kai stops so suddenly I nearly collide with him again.

“You worry too much, Sammy.” I narrow my eyes. He’s started calling me by my

nickname. I’m not sure if I’m okay with that.


“Aren’t you cold?” I challenge, referring to his naked

top half. Not that I’m complaining, but I know for a fact he owns a t-shirt and

it’s like minus a million in here.





A brilliant smile lights up his face. “Nope.”


As if on cue, the front door clicks open and Ashlee

shuffles in, hands full of plastic bags. “Sam! I’m back with the Chinese! Get

your butt down here!”


Kai turns to me, silver eyes wide. As soon as Ashlee

rounds the corner from the front door she’ll see him. “I told you,” I whisper

frantically as I drag him into the small hall closet.


“Sam?” Ashlee’s voice sounds so close, she must be just

outside the door. I exhale a heavy breath as her footsteps echo up the stairs

away from us. The light seeping under the door makes everything look dark grey.

I realize then that my hands are pressed up against Kai’s bare chest and he has

his arms wrapped tightly around me. We both let go at the same time and look

away.


“I understand why I’m hiding in the closet,” Kai

whispers, his breath tickling the hair on top of my head. “But why are you in

here with me?” I glance up to see his quirked eyebrow, and scowl at him, pressing

my lips together tightly.


“Shut up! I didn’t exactly have time to think this

through, okay?” His quiet chuckle echoes through the small space, I narrow my

eyes in annoyance and twist to stare at the gap under the door.





I can feel the heat radiating off Kai’s skin. I slowly

lift my head to look back up at him. He’s gazing down at me with his mouth

slightly open, his silver eyes glitter in the dim light. The atmosphere becomes

heavy and tense, crackling with electricity; I’m caught in his gaze, slowly leaning

closer to him. His hands come up and barely brush my arms. I inhale a shaky

breath and take a half step back, biting my lip. My back hits the wall of the

closet with a soft thump, breaking the spell. Kai’s eyes widen and he looks

away quickly.


“I should get out there, before she sends a search

party.”


He nods, still not looking at me and I move to open the

door.


“I’ll save you some dim sum?” The corner of my mouth

lifts in a small smile; I grasp the door knob and slip out of the closet. I

shut the door behind me with a snick and lean back against it, shaking my head.

What was that? Pushing off the door, I walk down the hall into the kitchen to

find Ashlee… --
