Today I ~~sadly~~ have no puns for you. I do however have the soundtrack to Melody Winter’s Sachael Desires so that’s better anyways! And remember Sachael Desires is now available and you can still enter this huge giveaway!

Even better than jamming out to some of these killer song choices is the why behind them.

Take That – Rule the World
The overall theme for Sachael Desires. To me, this is all about how Azariah feel’s about Estelle. It also hints at what’s to come.

Nickleback – If Everyone Cared
A great song for a moment a chapter that see’s Estelle struggling with other people’s reactions. She doesn’t always agree with the ways in which Sachaels live.

OMD – Our System
I love this song and it fits the moment when Estelle and Azariah prepare for the full moon submergence.

Ben Montague – Miracle
The perfect song for the perfect moment between Azariah and Estelle.

Linkin Park – The Catalyst
The Ultimate song about war and revenge. Here comes Orontes!

Evanescence – Secret Door
When I listen to this I always imagine that I’m under water, traveling to a place that is hidden away from anyone who doesn’t know it exists.

Melanie C – Stupid Game
Kaimi’s song. This is the song that makes me think of how Estelle would approach him.

Metric – Good Guns Girls
Another fast and upbeat song which fits the moment when Estelle has more decisions to make.

Enya – Stars and Midnight Blue
I always think of Enya when I write submergence scenes. The haunting and melodic tunes always transport me to the magic that surrounds Estelle on these nights.

30 Seconds to Mars – Stranger in a Strange Land
A song that grinds along, threatening what you’re going to do with your enemy. Be careful Orontes!

Paramore – We are Broken
When the person you love is so damaged and broken, they break you as well. The ultimate song for broken hearts.

Bailey Tzuke – Strong
Quite the reverse of the previous song. The lyrics to this are a wonderful fit for one of the final chapters of Sachael Desires. In the end, when you have a love that’s strong, nothing can break it.

About Sachael Desires

During her ordeal with the Sect, Estelle Bailey dreamt of escaping back into the arms of the sea—and Azariah. But freedom came at a price, and though she’s back with the Sachael who’s stolen her heart, she’s also land-bound until the next full moon. And with the threat of Orontes looming ever larger behind them, Azariah, Estelle, and Michael—her once-captor turned rescuer and friend—are on the run.

Following Michael’s lead, they seek sanctuary amidst the natural beauty of the Orkney and Shetland Islands until Estelle can complete her next submergence ritual and Azariah can whisk her away to the safety of Saicean.

Secrets, betrayals, and old enemies await them, though, and as events spiral out of control, Azariah makes a decision that puts all their lives at risk, forcing Estelle to face a journey she never wanted to take. With time running out and tempers running high, her only hope to save the man she loves lies in a reconciliation between two kingdoms who despise each other.
Book Two in the Mine Series, Sachael Desires further expands on the intricate underwater world of the Sachaels, and the hostility and isolation of not belonging. | Add to goodreads

About Melody Winter:

Growing up, Melody Winter showed a natural ability in art, a head for maths, and a tendency to write far too long English essays. Difficult to place in the world when she graduated, she pursued a career in teaching, but eventually ended up working in Finance. Melody is convinced the methodical time she spends working with numbers fuels her desire to drift into dream worlds and write about the illusory characters in her head.

Melody Winter lives in North Yorkshire, England, with her husband and two sons. When not dealing with football, rugby, and a whole plethora of ‘boy’ activities, she will be found scribbling notes for her stories, or preparing for another trip to the beach. With an obsession for anything mythical, Melody revels in reading and writing about such creatures. In fact, if she wasn’t such a terrible swimmer, she’d say she was a mermaid.

Sachael Desires is her second book in the New Adult Romantic Fantasy series – the ‘Mine Series’.
