Back to School With Violet and Aiden Title Reveal and Contest



Hey y’all were super stoked to be a part of Kristi Cooks’ title hunt for the third book in the Winterhaven series! Below you will find all you need to figure out the new title! Just unscramble the letters to get the title and when you’re done make sure to fill out the Rafflecopter form here or on one of the other sites listed below!

Here’s some info on Haven and Mirage!



Violet McKenna thought she was crazy when she had a vivid vision of her dad’s murder—but when her premonition came true, her life fell apart. Then she found a new school: Winterhaven. There, Violet fits right in. All the students have special “gifts” like her own, and she quickly finds a close group of friends. But Violet’s attraction to an alluring boy becomes problematic when intense visions of his death start to haunt her. In her premonitions, the secret he is unwilling to share begins to reveal itself—and the unbelievable becomes reality. To Violet’s horror, she learns that their destinies are intertwined in a crictical—and deadly—way.

Seventeen-year-old Violet McKenna is back for her senior year at Winterhaven, and thrilled to be with Aidan after a long summer apart. But when a violent and disturbing vision begins to haunt her, Violet suddenly feels unsure of everything: who to trust, if she is in danger, and—worst of all—whether she and Aidan are really meant to be together.

Mirage Blog Tour & Giveaway

Hi everyone! Today we have the pleasure of hosting the Mirage Blog Tour. We have asked Violet McKenna to join us for a Q & A. What’s really awesome about her answers is that she, via the awesome Kristi Cook, is answering them using quotes from Mirage. It’s going to be pretty awesome. So without further ado, let’s get started.


Two Chicks: Hello, Violet! Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and your “abilities”?

Violet: “Visions. Generally bad stuff, and almost exclusively about people I’m close to.”

Two Chicks: If you could have any ability other than your own, what would it be?

Violet: “Not regular Cece. Astral Cece,” I explained. “You know, out for a virtual stroll.”


Seventeen-year-old Violet McKenna is back for her senior year at Winterhaven, and thrilled to be with Aidan after a long summer apart. But when a violent and disturbing vision begins to haunt her, Violet suddenly feels unsure of everything: who to trust, if she is in danger, and—worst of all—whether she and Aidan are really meant to be together.
Two Chicks: Now that you know what Aidan’s, um, condition is, how are you handling things?

Violet: I was a little bit scared, and I didn’t want him to know it. It was something I’d never get used to, his transformation. Still, I’d wanted him to bite me. I’d asked him to bite me. He’d refused, of course, but what if he hadn’t? What if he wasn’t always stronger than me?


Two Chicks: What do you REALLY think of the new guy, Tyler?

Violet: “Tyler Bennett, from Texas. Overconfident and very competitive. Oh, and he said he was telekinetic. Micro, actually.” I might have been in love with someone else, but I wasn’t blind. He was cute.


Two Chicks: What’s up with the new teacher, Dr. Byrne? Any thoughts on him?

Violet: He had that ‘just rolled out of bed’ look, like he’d forgotten to shave or brush his hair. Even so, he looked like he belonged on the cover of one of those outdoorsy catalogs, the ones that sold everything from cargo pants to canoes.

Two Chicks: Anything else you’d like us to know about you?

Violet: I’d never thought too much about friendship before I came to Winterhaven, mostly because I hadn’t had many friends. Not because I didn’t want to, but because I couldn’t. The more people I got close to, the more people I saw in my visions, which were harbingers of awful things to come. Besides, the more friends I had, the more people I had to hide my secret from, to pretend that I didn’t know about things before they happened. But now…now I had friends. Friends I didn’t have to pretend with.

He leaned toward me, his voice a harsh whisper now. "For Christ's sakes, Violet, he's a vampire. How can you even..." He trailed off, shaking his head. "Just...never mind." What had he meant to say? Trust him? Touch him? Kiss him? (MIRAGE ARC, page 225)
