Until next time, Happy Holidays!

LIFE NEWS: We had a few family members over for Thanksgiving for the first time since before Covid. It was nice to see them and even nicer that my son had the day off so he could help us cook and clean.

Book News:

I got started on the next Brides of Prophecy book, made a little more progress on my coming-of-age horror novel, and still working on my screenplay adaptation of His Final Girl. I'm also in the beginning steps of my plans to raise funds to start getting some of my books in audio. But more on that later.

To Tempt a Sorcerer release day!

To Tempt a Sorcerer is here!

This fantasy romance is a spinoff of my Brides of Prophecy series and reads as a standalone.

Grab it on

Or in paperback!

This might be the best grumpy-sunshine romance I've ever written. I had a lot of fun making teaser graphics. Like this one:

And this one:

Rayven Niltsiar, my tribute to Raistlin Majere, the grumpy mage in the Dragonlance books, and my first book boyfriend, has been a character since the rough first draft of Conjuring Destiny that I started back when I was 15. So... I've been waiting 25 years to write this guy's book. I had the basics of Tiana's character in my head since I was 18 and pregnant with my son, but it wasn't until a couple years ago that I learned who were parents were. If you've read Reclaiming the Magic, you know already. If not, I won't spoil it for you.

Anyway, definitely check out To Tempt a Sorcerer! It's a lot of fun!

More free books, and a snippet of To Tempt a Sorcerer!

Hey everyone! I'm participating in the Bad Boy Rockstars free promo, offering up a free E-copy of Forbidden Song, my angstiest rock star romance. This promo is a newsletter subscribe one, but if you're already subscribed, I think you can just go HERE to claim the free book. If it doesn't work like that, just reply to the newsletter I sent out today and I'll hook you up.

You also have a couple more days to grab a free copy of my fantasy romance, Conjuring Destiny, in the May's Magical Book Fair. This one doesn't require a signup, so GRAB THOSE FREEBIES!

Other news:

I'm almost done with To Tempt A Sorcerer. This story is going to be so fun!

Here's a cute snippet I wrote:

“Delgarias commanded all high sorcerers without apprentices to take one so that more high-level mages will be better prepared for the war. Surely he told you about that so you both could gloat together.”

“Well, I thank you for your sacrifice.” Zareth smirked. He’d definitely heard about Delgarias’s command. “I’d still like to meet her.”

Panic fluttered in Rayven’s gut. There was no way that the half faelin sorcerer wouldn’t sense Tiana’s luminite blood. No way he wouldn’t tell Xochitl and Kerainne Leonine. And then they’d all assume the worst of him. As people always did.

Your wanting her to increase your power isn’t exactly noble, a strange voice spoke up in his mind.

Rayven coughed. “She’s busy with her studies.”

Zareth laughed, low and sinister. “You know something interesting? For all our centuries of enmity, you’ve never directly lied to me before. You’re here because the girl found a way to sneak to Earth, aren’t you? That’s why you have all these questions about disobedient apprentices and appropriate punishments.” When Rayven remained frozen and didn’t reply, Zareth shook his head and stood. “Never mind. I can laugh at your predicament later. I need to head back to my wife before Bleeding Vengeance begins playing. I’ll meet your apprentice another time. You can’t hide her forever.”

Can’t hide her forever. The same words the Duchess of Kinsen had thrown at him, only far less teasing coming from the King.

Still, Rayven sighed in relief when Zareth vanished from his side. He wasn’t ready to let anyone know that he had a half-luminite in his care. The power he hoped to get from their arrangement was now secondary. He didn’t want to lose her.

As you can see, this isn't only a Brides of Prophecy spinoff, but there are also some Hearts of Metal connections.

Free books and fun giveaways!

Hey everyone!

I signed up for the Splash into a Series giveaway and, there are A TON of free books available and some Amazon gift cards for grabs! Go HERE!

In other book news, Rock God and three other Hearts of Metal books lost their reviews on Amazon when the new paperbacks were linked to the E-books.

So I'm offering Rock God over at Book Sirens in hopes of getting some reviews.

Link is HERE: https://booksirens.com/book/PJDBJS3/EI6GXT2

If you've read Rock God, Forbidden Song, Tempting Beat, or Heart Throb before, please leave a review on Amazon, B&N, Bookbub, Kobo, Google Play, or Apple books. The reviews don't have to be long. Simply an "I liked it" or "It was okay" will be fine. Hell, even an "It wasn't for me" works.

If you previously reviewed it on Goodreads or any other non-amazon site, you can just copy-paste that review into Amazon and any other place that allows it.

OTHER NEWS:

Spring is always my time to work on my car and hunt for morel mushrooms.

The car repairs are more extensive this year because, aside from switching out my tires and doing the yearly oil change and air filter change, my passenger side window motor died. I finally got a new assembly ordered. Then, someone smashed my rear driver's side mirror! The replacement arrived today, and it was for the wrong side!

So I found another one, but it's on the opposite side of the country, so it's going to take FOREVER to get here. But at least I got all the broken glass out of the door.

In happier news, Kent and Micah and I got 4 pounds of morels yesterday at my grandma's tree farm!

Last 3 Hearts of Metal e-books live!

My big Twitter giveaway is still going on. If you haven't entered, go HERE for details.

BOOK NEWS!

The new editions of the last 3 Hearts of Metal books are live!

First up is the new edition of Forbidden Song!

Summary:

He was everything she was told to stay away from.

SHE’S OFF-LIMITS

Christine Mayne is determined to get out from under her controlling brother’s thumb. To do so, she plans to earn her PhD from studying group dynamics in heavy metal bands, and then become a band therapist. The problem is that Quinn Mayne, has barred her from the metal world because of a traumatic event in her past.

The opportunity to study a band comes when Cliff Tracey, lead singer of Bleeding Vengeance doesn’t recognize her. Christine tricks him into smuggling her onto the bus to accompany the band on their tour. When he discovers her deception, he’s furious. Christine tells herself that her efforts to talk to him are for her research and not because she’s drawn to his sensual presence.

HE’S FORBIDDEN

Cliff Tracey is going through an existential crisis. Suddenly having a different one-night-stand after every gig has lost its appeal. He’s ready to get rid of his man-whore label and try getting to know a woman. When black-haired, green-eyed bombshell Christine asks him if she can accompany his band on tour for her research, he thinks the perfect opportunity has fallen into his lap—until he finds out that she’s Quinn Mayne’s off-limits little sister.

Despite his efforts to keep her at arm’s length, Cliff finds himself unable to stay away from Christine. But he has to, because if he gives in to temptation, he’ll cause the biggest rift in metal history.

Here's the link for Forbidden Song: https://books2read.com/u/47QV5g

And then there's Tempting Beat:

Summary:

When ER nurse Gwen Mason falls for metal drummer, Roderick Powell, her plans for a lifetime alone with her cats are thwarted.

THE ROCK STAR NEXT DOOR

Roderick Powell, drummer of Bleeding Vengeance, is delighted to have left LA and move into a beautiful new home in a Denver suburb. But as he sees all of his bandmates’ happiness after finding love, he wonders if having a place of his own is enough. When he meets the hot nurse next door, Rod is smitten. She gives him the brush-off, but he’s determined to woo her.

AND THE CRAZY CAT LADY NURSE

Twice divorced and working brutal hours as an ER nurse, Gwen Mason resigned to a life alone with her four cats. When a sexy rock star moves next door, it takes all of her willpower to resist the younger man’s charms. Her resolve is shattered when trouble with the city council throws her and Rod together. One night in his arms, and she’s in danger of losing her heart.

And here's book 7, Heart Throb

And last, but not least, book 7, Heart Throb:

Summary:

Bassist Brand and filmmaker Lexi have both suffered traumatic pasts, but together, they can heal and have a happy future

THE GRUMPY BASSIST

Brand Kife, bassist for heavy metal band, Viciöus, is known in the metal world as “the man who never smiles.” He has even less reason to smile when he learns that his band’s tour is going to be disrupted by beautiful filmmaker, Lexi Adams, who’s making a documentary about Viciöus. Brand has secrets that Lexi can’t learn.

AND THE BEAUTY QUEEN

Former child beauty pageant winner, Lexi Adams resists her mother's pressuring her to become a model and is instead determined to be a successful filmmaker. She’s thrilled to film a documentary on one of her favorite metal bands, but Brand Kife is making her work difficult. First by being uncooperative in interviews, then by distracting her with his sinful good looks and aura of mystery. When they give into temptation, Lexi wants to learn about Brand’s traumatic past, but first, she will have to trust him with her own.

For an excerpt and buy links, go HERE!

Other Book News:

The new edition paperbacks of Forbidden Song, Tempting Beat, and Heart Throb should be available later this week.

And I'm working on a Brides of Prophecy spin-off book that still needs a title, both for the book and for the spin-off series.

This book is the story of Tiana and Rayven Niltsiar. If you haven't read Reclaiming the Magic, then the mystery of Tiana's identity remains intact. But if you have, this should still be a fun story. My newsletter readers got an early sneak peek at an excerpt, which I will post here next week.

Until next time, thanks for being one of my readers!
