I’m getting ready for the last book signings of the year and kicking off 2027 at the fabulous Coastal Magic Convention. With nearly 80 published books, I normally only take some favorites with me to the book signings. But there were some books that were favorites that I haven’t been taking, and I decided that they needed some sprucing up! I’ve got new covers and interiors for SINS OF THE FLESH and STRONGER THAN SIN, the first two books in the Sin Hunters Series. I love this series! The first two books are about evil scientists who are conducting genetic engineering experiments on innocent people. They are strong romantic suspense novels with that unique paranormal twist. What do you think about the new covers? You can grab these books at https://amzn.to/4w49oWf.
I am so excited to be visiting Coffee, Cupcakes, and Contemporaries again! I can’t to talk about all the wonderful things I love about summer, and my At the Shore contemporary romance series. We’re going to have lots of fun, and there will also be a giveaway for you to enter! Join the party at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1426474880768003.
DARKNESS CALLS is a book of my heart for several reasons. I was in a very dark place in my life when I decided to write it. 9/11 had just happened, and the emotional turmoil from it scarred me. I’d sold nine books to a publisher, but they decided to close down the line, and a new editor wasn’t receptive to a dark paranormal romantic suspense. The agent I had at the time didn’t believe in the book and didn’t do much to sell it. Back then, indie publishing wasn’t an option. But I believed in the book and wrote it, putting a lot of my angst into it. What came out changed my career. To my surprise, the publisher interested in it was Harlequin, and they bought it! They had nowhere to put a novel that was Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets The X-Files. But they found a spot, and three years later, the fourth book in the series launched the Nocturne line. There are at least a dozen books in the series, but the first book, DARKNESS CALLS, will always be special, and because of that, I decided to honor it with a brand new cover by a fabulous artist. What do you think? If you haven’t already read this book of my heart, you can grab it for only 99 cents at https://amzn.to/4oUJ7qw.
I was thinking of doing a special giveaway to celebrate the release of K-9 TRACKER. Since some of the scenes are set on the Jersey Shore, I was going to create a shore-themed glass bottle similar to the photo below. The bottle would be a pump bottle filled with fragrant hand soap and would be decorated with sand, beads, and shells. What do you think? Would you like something like that as a giveaway? P.S. You can pre-order K-9 TRACKER and grab the other books in the Crooked Pass Security series and K-9 spinoff at https://amzn.to/3RGlxBp.
Happy National Cheese Day! As much as I love chocolate, if I had to choose between chocolate and cheese, I would definitely choose cheese. I love all kinds of cheeses, although I prefer sharp cheeses. If you’ve been following me the last few weeks, you know I even tried my hand at making cheese with a tasty result! LOL! What about you? Do you love cheese and, if so, what kind? P.S. Chef Carlo from the AT THE SHORE series definitely knows his cheeses and how to use them! He also knows the way to reach into Emma’s heart and show her that real and lasting love is possible. If you haven’t already grabbed your copy of the AT THE SHORE books, the first book in the series, ONE SUMMER NIGHT, is specially priced at 99 cents. Grab your copy today at https://amzn.to/3RRys3p.
