I love men.
Seriously. All different kinds of men. As I’ve matured, I’ve learned to appreciate all the nuances and varieties that get my motor humming. And when I’m writing a new novel, I spend a lot of time fantasizing about my leading guy. A lot of time.
Unnnnff.
And like any romance novelist, I have my “types” that I like to write, and my two recurring men are front and center in various forms.
That’s right! By reader request, here’s the full trilogy available at a steal of a price! All three books, in their entirety, plus the novella “Captured by the Hunter” – which also takes place in the Seeder universe. So that’s three complete novels, plus a bonus novella, all in one place, all for one low price! How awesome is that?
In “Siege Perilous,” we watched Emma using her dark wiles on Killian to no avail. In this fic, Emma comes back later in the evening to visit Killian again…
Killian set the flask down, giving his eyes a tired rub with his hand. It was very late in the evening, and he felt wearier than he’d felt in a lifetime, beaten down and depleted in a way that left him foundering.
She’d asked him if he loved her. And in that moment, that awful, lingering moment, he knew the answer.
If she had been Emma, truly his Emma, she wouldn’t have had to ask. Continue reading
This is it, guys – the final day of my Goodreads giveaway. Last chance to win a chance at one of five free signed copies of Windsinger, book one of my Elemental Destinies series.
If you thrilled at the adventure and sexy fun of The Seeder Saga, if you laughed over the sarcasm and squirmed at the steam in Eight Nights At Sea, if your heart skipped a beat at the gentle poignancy of love that won’t be silenced and you got frequently overheated over the undeniable chemistry in Someday In Dublin – then this new series is for you, because it’s got all of that, and more!!
Don’t miss out on your chance to own it FREE!
This will be the first year I haven’t entered NaNoWriMo in a long, long time. Why? Because a book I started as a NaNo Project finally landed me a bona-fide book deal with a “Big 5” publisher, that’s why – so I am living proof that You. Can. Do. This.
In my resource collection I have a file of stuff I use to motivate me before NaNo starts every year, so I’m going to share them with you:
Hope those help – and good luck to everyone!
Now here’s my sage advice:
FINISH THAT BOOK. JUST WRITE AND FINISH THAT DAMN BOOK.

Windsinger is the first book of my Elemental Destinies series, and the introduction of the Twixters, half-human, half-elemental and entirely unique. In this excerpt, Cecy and Sami (who are both half air elemental) are discussing Cecy’s wild night.
I was chatting with an old friend from high school over the weekend, and she mentioned that she just bought a copy of Windsinger and couldn’t wait to read it. I thanked her, of course, and she dropped another bit of happy into my lap:
“My hairdresser reads all your stuff!” she said. Apparently, she’d mentioned to the girl that I write romance (among other things) and the girl looked me up, and has bought everything I’ve ever written. She especially loved The Seeder Saga and was eagerly awaiting the first book of the Elemental Destinies.
So there you have it. A hairdresser in a very small town in the desert southwest reads me. And I couldn’t be happier.
Readers, I love you. I don’t remember to say that often enough, but really, I do. It’s not really about the money – because, let’s face it, I’m self-pubbed and while I do all right, I’m not laying around on my yacht eating caviar as I tap away at my keyboard, here.
The fact is, I write stories I love, and it’s just so incredibly validating when one of you loves them, too. So thank you. Really. From the bottom of my hopeless romantic heart.
Thank you for reading, thank you for buying, thank you for believing in me.
Meet the Elementals – a magical race that inhabits our world imbodying the four elements of earth, air, fire and water. Cecy is a “Twixter,” the half-human offspring of an air elemental, who doesn’t always fit in with the rest of our world.
In addition to her magical heritage, Cecy bears another gift, one which will lead her to Brad, a scientist who is studying a very strange phenomenon – one that might signal a far deeper problem and a danger to life as we know it.
Together, they stumble upon a mystery that affects them both, and discover that playing it safe means nothing when love and desire are in the air.
Enter today (and through Friday, October 23rd) for a chance to win one of five signed copies of Windsinger, Book One of the exciting new Elemental Destinies series!
