About The Book

Lost

by Donnielle Tyner

Series: The Caelian Cycle #1

Publication Date: June 19, 2015

During WW1, a meteorite crashed, releasing a mist that changed the DNA of all who were exposed. One hundred years has passed and society is divided between the Norms and the Caelians, whose changed DNA awakened dormant gifts, called Talents.

Sadie is over it!

She’s an orphan, her boyfriend was murdered, and she’s the only Caelian at St. Vincent’s without a Talent. Once she turns 18, there will be no place for her in the world. That is, until a chance encounter with Kian, a Caelian boy who makes her feel uncomfortable and alive at the same time.

Secrets of her past are uncovered and Sadie’s latent, rare Talent is exposed. With great power comes the hunters, hired by an egomaniac who wants to use Sadie’s power to establish Caelian dominance. On the run with Kian and her friends, Sadie will have to decide: hide or fight.

Will Sadie accept her new reality or will she stay lost?

~ Character Interview with Sadie ~

What's your idea of perfect happiness?

Hanging out with my friends for a while and then retreating to hang out solo under the stars.

Your greatest fear?

Never finding my place in the world.

What's a trait that you most dislike about a person?

Dishonesty.

How do you think you'll be able to change Kian?

I don’t think I want to change him, but his communication skills are severely lacking.

What do you like so much about him/her?

I didn’t at first, but after spending time with him, I noticed that he’s level-headed and has a strong desire to protect those around him. Plus, he’s easy on the eyes.

Name a "moment" with Kian that you thought was special.

When he helped me at the lowest point in my life, even though he hardly knew me.

What are some characteristic that a partner must have?

Trustworthy, faithful, and willing to follow along with some of my crazier ideas.

Your biggest regret?

Not telling the people I care just how much I love them as often as I could.

About the Author

Donnielle Tyner

Website | Goodreads | Facebook | Twitter

Hello! Donnielle here. I’m a new indie young adult author. When I’m not writing, I spend my time reading, binge watching Netflix, homeschooling my two children, and hanging out with my husband.

A few fun facts about me:

1. I began writing when I was in junior high. A teacher approached me with a poetry book and I fell in love. Writing poetry has helped me express myself through some of the darkest times in my life.

2. I am always reading something and own hundreds of eBooks. I thank the technology gods for the invention of e-readers. Series are my favorite. I love it when I feel like I cannot stop reading a book. My favorite genre is sci-fi and paranormal.

3. I am a HUGE nerd and enjoy every medium of nerdom from comic books to Magic! The Gathering.

4. I am a serious introvert and need plenty of alone time so I don’t go insane. Seriously! I will cut someone if they cut in to my “me” time.

5. I have a passion for holistic medicine and create many of my own household products. My kids and husband will ask for some “oils” when they aren’t feeling well. I love growing herbs to make my own blends of herbal tea.

6. I read YA almost exclusively. There is just something about it that calls to my heart above other genres.

7. When I read paranormal it’s either about shifters or faeries.

8. Writing has always been a passion and a dream. I had many jobs and they never fulfilled me the way writing has.
