Summary from Goodreads:
Reality is only an illusion.
Except for those who can control it…
Worst. Birthday. Ever.
My first boyfriend dumped me – happy birthday, Josie!- my dad is who knows where, I have some weird virus that makes me want to hurl, and now my ex is licking another girl’s tonsils. Oh, and I’m officially the same age as my brother was when he died. Yeah, today is about as fun-filled as the swamps of Dagobah. But then weird things start happening…

Like I make something materialize just by thinking about it.
When hot badass Reid Wentworth shows up on a motorcycle, everything changes. Like, everything. Who I am. My family. What really happened to my brother. Existence. I am Oculi, and I have the ability to change reality with my thoughts. Now Reid, in all his hotness, is charged with guiding and protecting me as I begin learning how to bend reality. And he’s the only thing standing between me and the secret organization that wants me dead…

Random Facts About Tonya
Kuper
Thank you so much for having me on your blog. I’m excited to be here! I
thought instead of me answering the usual author question, readers may enjoy
some absolute randomness.
So here is a list of random facts about me:
- I taught yoga for over three years. I haven’t
practiced, let alone taught, in years.
- I once partied with Keith Urban’s band and road
crew until four in the morning. Keith was in his room but his bald guitar
player said I had the sexiest hair he’d ever seen. So that was…coo/interesting/weird.
- My kids have life threatening food allergies.
My oldest son went into anaphylaxis when he was just over a year old and
was gray by the time we got the ER. It seemed as if people came from the
walls, appearing out of nowhere to save his life. Scariest day of my life.
- I have a reaction to a stomach medication that
makes my brain think I have Parkinson’s Disease. Yeah, I found that out
the hard way. My speech is slurred, my tongue presses to the roof of my
mouth, my bottom jaw slides to the side. It’s pretty crazy.
- There was a movie, a biographical drama, in
2000 called The Perfect Storm, staring George Clooney and Mark Walberg and
nominated for two Academy Awards. I sat next to the friend of the crew
members lost at sea that served as one of the consultants for the film on
the sailing/fishing elements. It was the most interesting plane ride!
- Anyone watch 24 starring Keifer Sutherland?
Well, my friend and I were in NYC in 2011 and ended up at the same bar as
him and Jason Patrick (his co-star in a play and Lost Boys, the vampire
movie from the 80’s). And Keifer mooned us. Like, ten feet from us.
- I’m obsessed with accents. Southern drawl, East
coast, Canadian, English, Irish, Scottish, whatever. So…cute men + accents
= automatic points from me. It’s probably because I grew in rural Illinois
then moved to Omaha, Nebraska after college, which is the call center of
America because we have such a flat accent, basically no accent. It’s
very…generic American.
- My family, between all four of us, is allergic
to almost every mammal on Earth, therefore we have no hairy pets. We
literally can’t be enclosed with most mammal dander. It’s so bad, we can’t
even have the “hypo-allergenic” dogs. We had fish. They died. And they
were boring. My boys wanted to interact with something – so we got a
leopard gecko, a desert dweller. I had no idea they were so cute and have
such personalities! I post pics and videos of Mo (short for Mo’o, the
Hawaiin word for lizard/gecko) on my Instagram account every once in
while.
