GUEST POST AND GIVEAWAY!
THE DOLLHOUSE ASYLUM by Mary Gray
October 22nd 2013 from Spencer Hill Press
A virus that had once been contained has returned, and soon no place will be left untouched by its destruction. But when Cheyenne wakes up in Elysian Fields--a subdivision cut off from the world and its monster-creating virus--she is thrilled to have a chance at survival.
At first, Elysian Fields,with its beautiful houses and manicured lawns, is perfect. Teo Richardson, the older man who stole Cheyenne's heart, built it so they could be together. But when Teo tells Cheyenne there are tests that she and seven other couples must pass to be worthy of salvation, Cheyenne begins to question the perfection of his world.
The people they were before are gone. Cheyenne is now "Persephone," and each couple has been re-named to reflect the most tragic romances ever told. Everyone is fighting to pass the test, to remain in Elysian Fields. Teo dresses them up, tells them when to move and how to act, and in order to pass the test, they must play along.
If they play it right, then they'll be safe.
But if they play it wrong, they'll die
GUEST POST
MARY SPILLS THE IDENTITY OF ONE OF THE COUPLES—EEP!
A lot of people have wanted to know which tragic literary couples appear in THE DOLLHOUSE ASYLUM. I’ve refused to answer, because readers should learn this when they read the book! But…well… you only have a blog tour for your debut once, so, shh! I’m going to spill a little bit.
A long time ago in Punjab (present day Pakistan) a slave girl fell in love with a handsome prince. Her name was Anarkali, and he, Salim, actually loved her back. Only problem was, when the prince’s father found out about their affair, he ordered for the princess to be buried alive behind a wall of brick. So, when I was researching which tragic couples to share in my tale, I knew I had to choose this because 1) it wasn’t overly done story in Western literature and 2) it had the exact feeling of tragedy I was looking for. Plus, the tomb of Anarkali still exists today (from the 1600s!) and bears this poetic description: Could I behold the face of my beloved once more, I would thank God until the day of resurrection. Salim really loved her. Tragic, yes?
THE DOLLHOUSE ASYLUM was written in large part because I’d read THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH and I wanted to write a story with the same kind of horror and desperation I drank up in that book. I then turned to my own personal experiences and the abusive relationships I’d witnessed spilled out. Suddenly I had this urgent, emotional story with seven couples, and I needed to find the right ones to fit. Salim and Anarkali’s story was perfect.
I then knew one or more of my characters would need to be buried alive, and the moment had to be poetic. My villain would take great pleasure in committing this atrocity—mostly. He would also feel betrayed. I knew this.
So, who was buried alive, you might ask? Well, that I’m not telling; time for you to read my book!

I want to inform you all that there is a spell caster that is real and genuine. I never believed in any of these things until i loosed my boyfriend, I required help until i found ogbubabaspellcaster@yahoo.com a grate spell caster, And he cast a love spell for me, and he assured me that I will get my boyfriend back in two days after the spell has been cast. two days later, my phone rang, and so shockingly, it was my boyfriend who has not called me for past 3 years now, and made an apology for the heart break, and told me that he is ready to be my back bone till the rest of his life with me. OGBU BABA released him up to know how much i loved and wanted him. And opened his eyes to picture how much we have share together. As I’m writing this testimony right now I’m the most happiest girl on earth and me and my fiance is living a happy life and our love is now stronger than how it were even before our break up.

ReplyDeleteHello friends, My name is Melina Allen for 5years now my husband left me and my two kids for another woman, i have been working so hard to make sure i take care of my kids and their education as well I do every things all alone without any body's help I and my husband use to live very happy as a family until he met another woman and left us alone. One day, as i was browsing the internet, I saw a comment thanking the great priest Oduduwa for helping her get her ex lover back I just wanted to test my faith as i contact the great priest Oduduwa, when i contacted him on his email, he told me not to worry that he will help me cast a spell that will bring back my husband that left me for good 5years in three days which really happen just as he said. two days ago to my surprise, my husband came home pleading that he never new what came over him I saw the passion on him and now he even love me now like never before so I want to use this medium to thank the great love spell caster Oduduwa Ijebu for the wonderful thing you did in my family and also any body in need of such help from the great priest Odudduwa should contact him now on his email (oduduwajibelovespell_temple@live.com)
ReplyDeleteMy name is Luis Mary i live in California, and i got married four months ago.My husband and i have been living a very happy and lovely life.so as time went on, i began to notice this strange attitude that he was possessing.He was now going out with other girls, to the extent that he was no longer picking up my calls, and he was not even sleeping at home anymore. I became confused and didn't know what to do anymore.So i became worried and stranded, that brought so many thoughts into my mind, because i have never experienced a thing like this before in my life.So i decided to
ReplyDeletevisit a spell caster, to see if he can help me out.So immediately i went to the internet, where i saw an amazing testimony of a spell caster who brought someone's ex lover back, "great cocoma" so i contacted him immediately and i explained to him all my problems and he told me that it will be very easy for him to solve, compare to the ones that he has done.and he also gave me some proof to be really sure of his work, and he assured me that my husband will come back to me immediately he is through with the spell casting.and also he told me to put all my trust in him, and i really obeyed him.So it was 8:00 am on the next morning, when i was about going to work, when i received my husband's call, and he told me that he was coming back home,when he came back he started apologized to me, and told me that he is very sorry for the pain that he has cost me.He really came back home, and that was how we continued our marriage with lots of
love and happiness, and our love was now stronger than how it were before.And he also told me that once my heart desire has been granted unto me that i should go and testify of his work right here on the internet.
Right now i am the happiest woman on earth today as i am writing this testimony, and i want to really thank "greats cocoma" for bringing back my husband, and for bringing joy and love to my family.So my greatest advice
for you out there who your husband or your wife is acting strange or behaving the same way like this, or you have any problem with your relationship or anything related to do with spell casting, is for you to go and visit this man anytime, and i assure you that he will be of help to you, and i am 100% sure that he will solve it out.
Thanks.

This would be my second time here. Just to say another thank you to DR.LOVESPELL for all he has done for me. Unlike other spell casters in Africa and Asia who are not true. He got my ex back just after all hopes was lost, he got me a job and with rapid promotion in a company that hardly promotes people. Here is the link, i was one of them http://www.hardwaremerchandising.com/news/walmart-promotes-25-000-employees-at-store-ceremonies/1002692320/?&er=NA now we are getting married in two weeks time. Special thanks to DR.LOVESPELL. To my greatest surprise, it was almost free. I am so happy i can be this happy again in my life. You can contact him directly via e-mail on lovespellpower@hotmail.com Here
ReplyDeleteis one simple way to differentiate between the fake and the real spell casters. As for the fake ones, you would see some stories of how the swindled some people. Their list is all over the internet. DR.LOVESPELL is exemption from that list.
