Book Release of Ever My Merlin and the Soundtrack!

Announcing the release of Ever My Merlin and the Soundtrack

First (yay!), I’m happy to announce the release of Ever My Merlin on Barnes & Noble, and through other retailers. For those of you who’ve asked about the paperback (double yay!), it should be out in the next month.

Okay, now for something fun.  Confession time: I AM a soundtrack junkie. I obsess over movie soundtracks.  I love it when authors list it with their books. I might make faces  (or slight gagging sounds) at some of the soundtrack choices but for me it’s still interesting to see suggestions of the mood of the story.

I have a soundtrack for all three of the My Merlin books. Don’t worry I won’t list each and every song. It’s on my iTunes playlist (As soon as I can get Ping to work, I will post it!).  Below I’m listing some major sequences and the theme songs. I hope you enjoy it!

My Boyfriend Merlin

Theme song: Secrets by One Republic.

Why? This one was brought to me via a reader and I thought it was absolutely perfect for Matt and the whole book.

My Merlin Awakening

Theme song: Down by Jason Walker

Why? The struggle in this song mirrors the emotions in the book.

Ever My Merlin

 Theme song: I had a tough time with this one because we have all three of the main characters with their individual growth experiences as we finish out the journey. But I settled on Ryan’s song because she’s at the heart of the story.

Blower’s Daughter by Scala & Kolacny Brothers. This one is Ryan’s theme song. Why? A beautiful song about looking back, looking ahead, and seeing the hidden truths
