Authors I Love To Stalk: Amelia Hutchins

Welcome to my first installment of Authors I Love to Stalk. These posts will consist only of authors I majorly HEART and my reasons why. When I find an author I adore and worship, I fall hard. My husband often threatens to divorce me because I then refer to nothing but that author and their wonderful, beautiful worlds. It makes things awkward at my home to say the least.


So anyway, let us begin with segment one of Authors I Love to Stalk.


Currently, I'm on a hit of four authors I adore but for now I'm going to share the newest author that made it on my Stalking Radar. Amelia Hutchins.

When I came across this wonderful, talented author's work it was by accident. Amazon in it's wonderful wisdom had one of her books listed on possible matches. For the most part, I ignore Amazon's Matchmaking scheme but for some reason the cover art caught me. In a daze I clicked the image, read the blurb, and discovered that Amelia Hutchin's Fae Chronicles Book 1 was Free. So, i scratch my chin and though sure, why not? Seconds later this book was on my kindle and I was reading.

Have you ever heard of the old Celtic legends of the Fae - beautiful, magical, deadly and a love of messing with humans just for kicks and giggles?
Welcome to my world.
What started out as a strange assignment, leads to one of the most gruesome murder mysteries of our times and my friends and I are set and determined to find out who is killing off Fae and Witches alike. 
Couple of problems in the way – I hate the Fae and the Prince of the Dark Fae is bound and determined that I work for him.
 He’s a rude, overbearing egotistical ass with a compulsive need to possess, dominate and control me.
Oh – did I mention that he is absolutely sex-on-a-stick gorgeous and he makes me feel things that I never ever wanted to feel for a Fae…every time he touches me or looks at me with those golden eyes seems to pull me further in under his spell, despite my better judgment.
My friends and I can’t trust anyone and nothing is as it seems on the surface – not even me.

    Let me just state, WOW. Normally, I don't fall in love with new series. I horde my adoration and awe unless another author recommends. In this case, I was glad to go out on a limb. With my adventurous decision, I found a new fav. author. YAY! Needless to say, I finished this series current available books in three days. Yes, three. Then I started in on her Guardian Series, which was not quiet as good as her Fae world but not far behind. 
So let me lists the reasons I started staking Amelia Hutchins (and by stalk I mean, foam at the mouth while searching the web for anything new or some information of anything about to be new). 
1. Her book worlds are the shit. Beautifully descriptive, easily believable. I can picture myself in the settings Amelia describes. 
2. I like her characters. All of them. Somehow, Amelia Hutchins' makes me invest emotionally with her fictional peeps. None of them are two dimensional, each having for reals hopes, dreams, passions, plans, life long goals, hates, personality issues. Their realness makes me think that perhaps Amelia has a psychology degree somewhere in her belt. Or they are all based off of real live people. 
3. She has lots of sass. Amelia writes with a humor that makes me laugh out loud. That's kind of awkward when my hubby is sleeping next to me and I wake him up with cackling. Another reason for a possible divorce. 
4. My penis is bigger than yours. What does that mean, huh? Well, I'm the type of gal who loves certain aspects in her books. A domineering man (Check), sassy female (Check), intricate storyline (Check), and every time the protagonist head off on some enemy showdown there is a fantastical show of whose penis is bigger, or rather whose the biggest baddest person in the room. I love that Amelia's characters always are, even when it looks like they aren't. I also enjoy how it's always done with sass. Like a snap in the face, followed by big letters that ran down around you and read, BOOM!
5. Her men are domineering and sexy. I know I mentioned this in number four briefly but do I need to explain further? I really love a man, who is just that A MAN. 
6. Her Story lines are intricate but well thought out. They make sense people. When she adds a plot changer, she does it smoothly. As if she was some great mastermind, everything flows and adds up. She leaves no unanswered questions. 
7. She builds relationships really well. Read her work and you'll see what I mean. She does have a lot of naughty grown up scenes. ALOT of them that sometimes I just skip, because I'm all about the romance not the loving, but let me assure you it takes nothing away from her books themselves. 
So there you go, Seven reason why I Love to Stalk Amelia Hutchins and her books. I suggest you go out and try her first book, Fighting Destiny and give her a try. You might just luck out and find a new fav. author like I did.
