FOR LOVE OR VEGEANCE #FreeRead & #Giveaway

FOR LOVE OR VEGEANCE Vampire novelStill doing the happy dance over the return of THE CALLING vampire series as THE REBORN vampire series. Today we’re having a free read from FOR LOVE OR VENGEANCE, the first book in the relaunched series, but the 12th in THE CALLING.

A lot of you have been wondering, “Why a Goddess and what role will she play in future books?”

Well, you know I like to change things up. That’s why the series has been a mix of paranormal and human suspense stories. It’s also why I did things like bring in a chupacabra and a chiang shi vampire.

After discussions with my editors, they thought something REALLY different might be interesting and after much thought, I turned to something I really love: mythology. That’s where the idea of having a Goddess was born.

Will you see Helene and Miguel in future books? You’ll hear about them in the next book, TO LOVE AND SERVE, which begins a three-story arc about Diana and Ryder. You will see Miguel and Helene in a future book as the god/goddess world brings trouble to the human realm. Possibly in book 5 of the REBORN series. I’m working on the idea for that book right now, but first you’ll be treated to a novella next year and then book 5!

For today I’m giving you a sexy excerpt from FOR LOVE OR VENGEANCE. Warning, this is for Mature audiences only.

HONOR CALLS #Vampire #Romance Free Read

I loved Michaela Ramirez when she first popped up in HONOR CALLS and I knew I was not done with her story when the novella was finished. I’m happy to say she’ll be back in the books tentatively titled BORN TO SERVE (October 2013) and BORN TO DIE (December 2013).

Why do I say tentatively? Because I’m sure they’ll want to change the titles so they have a little more romance in them. Any way, here’s a little excerpt from HONOR CALLS. This story was available in print in the AWAKENING THE BEAST Anthology and is also available in the British Anthology SUMMER HOLIDAY WITH A VAMPIRE.

Sizzlin’ Stacia in South Beach

After so long, I’m very happy to chat with you about the next book in THE CALLING/REBORN vampire series. KISSED BY A VAMPIRE will be available on October 16 from Harlequin Nocturne.

The heroine in the novel is Stacia, a nearly two thousand year old vampiress who has seen her share of pain and death. She herself experienced it in the days before her wedding when she is turned by her husband-to-be and after, when he enslaves her as she struggles to deal with her new undead life.

Stacia always presented a wealth of contradictions for me. When she first appeared in DEATH CALLS (a 2006 CATAROMANCE Reviewers Choice Winner), you knew she was brash and almost promiscuous as she chased after both Ryder and Diana with equal fervor.

I knew that her sexual pursuit hid a much greater need: To be loved.

That became very apparent in DESIRE CALLS where Stacia and Blake explore their attraction. You can read that story for free by clicking here.

Ever since then, I’ve been trying to find a way to give Stacia her happily-ever-after. There was something about her deep loneliness and the outrageous behavior that she uses to hide it that really called to me. I hope you’ll enjoy her story, KISSED BY A VAMPIRE, when it’s released on October 16.

I also hope you’ll enjoy a slightly different location for KISSED BY A VAMPIRE since I’m moving Stacia’s story to South Beach. It was time for a bit of change from the other Manhattan locales for THE CALLING/REBORN novels.

South Beach was the perfect location for Stacia to meet the man who would challenge her: Sexy DEA Agent Alex Garcia. You might also remember Alex from DEATH CALLS. Alex is Diana’s ex-lover and the events from their brief reunion in New York have had a lasting effect on Alex. KISSED BY A VAMPIRE is as much Alex’s story as it is Stacia’s and I hope you will love this honorable and caring man as much as I do.

I also had another reason for setting the story in South Beach — I’ve been there a few times and wanted to share with you the feel of the sizzling South Beach strip. To get you in the mood, here are some photos of the area where Stacia and Alex will meet and face danger as they fall in love.

I’ll be sharing more Behind the Scenes photos and history with you as we approach the release of KISSED BY A VAMPIRE!
