Ready For Some More Tidbits? Here’s A Scene From Rain In The Moonlight

Rain In The Moonlight is the second book of the Seeder Saga, and the lead characters were so incredibly intense to write. Their chemistry and particular their backstories are incredible, and the book takes a couple of unexpected turns before they work out whatever it is between them.

In this scene, we see Rain trying to reason with Ajan, who has been sent to capture the leader of the River Valley. He ends up captured himself, but Rain realizes soon enough that his skills could come in handy in their battle against the encroaching Mountain city. Now she has to convince him to work with her, instead of against her. Continue reading →

Falling In Love With Your Characters

I am so in love with Michael.

He’s the man from Someday In Dublin, and he’s very devil-may-care and impulsive and crazy fun. I could write about Michael, talk like Michael and let Michael get naked and do all sorts of wild and exciting things to me all day long.

The problem is, the story isn’t just about Michael. The story is about Amy, too. Continue reading →

It’s Monday, Time To Let Off A Little…Steam! Here’s Another Excerpt From “Sky Woman”

You know how I loooove my steam. Today, I’m giving you another tiny taste of “Sky Woman,” the first novel of my Seeder Series.

Miri is an earth girl who finds herself waking up on another planet, and soon in the care of three gorgeous brothers, all hell-bent on wooing her. Miri has some hard choices to make about things that make her question the very nature of love and desire. It’s a hot, hot book and I had a wonderful time writing it. Here’s a taste.

So, I’m Playing Around With My Blog Template (As You Can See)

Please excuse the way the blog is going to look for a while. I’m playing around with various templates, trying to figure out what works best for me and if it’s worth it to me to pay the upgrade and get a more customized look. It’s not like I have thousands of followers here – it’s more a touchplace where I can put my book, fanfic and social media links and send people to. I’ll have to ruminate on that.

On an entirely unrelated note…I was hugely productive this weekend. From Friday night through to today, I’ve written over 9600 words!! And mostly good ones! Of course, I had a power outage for a good chunk of the weekend with nothing to do but read or write, and that certainly helped.

And the cold made me wish I was cuddling. The thought of cuddling made me wish I was doing a whole lot more than cuddling and before I knew it, I had a couple more chapters of my next book completed. God help me if I land a boyfriend anytime soon. I’m honestly afraid I’ll lose my mojo.

Maybe I’d just better make sure he’s an adventurous sort (she says, waggling her eyebrows).

In the meantime, the power’s back on and I’m off work for President’s Day, so I’ll keep on writing as long as the muse takes me there.

Just a reminder that Changeling is now out and already has a great review – please feel free to add more reviews on Amazon, Smashwords or GoodReads – I can really use them!

Stay warm!

If You Build It, They Will Fly To The USA, And You Will Come

So I’m in the middle of writing my next book, a contemporary romance set partly in Dublin, and I have to confess that I’ve never been there. I’m relying extensively on a whole lot of internet friends (many of whom are from Dublin or that area) to make sure I’m not writing stupid stuff or using dialect that any self-respecting Irishman (or Irishwoman) would sneer to read.

But oh, I want to go there someday.

Unfortunately, I’m not a bestselling author yet, and no one’s throwing six-figure book advances my way (yet) so Dublin is a dream for now, as is the rest of the Emerald Isle.

Or so I thought. Continue reading →

Two Books To Choose From! Help Yourself To Some Steam!

That’s right – Not one but TWO ways to get some heat going this Valentine’s week. Book Three of the Seeder Saga is now out on Amazon!

Changeling is the story of Lizzie, who gets kidnapped from Earth by a handsome stranger. It turns out her father was from another planet, and embroiled in a plot that threatens mankind all over the galaxy. She’s thrown together with Indar, a member of the Seeder Corps, and together they’re going to have to figure out a mystery that spans time and space – that is, if they can keep their hands off each other long enough to do so. Along the way, they’ll meet up with Miri, Raine, and their men – all of whom prove valuable in solving an intergalactic puzzle. This book contains strong sexual content and is not suitable for readers under 17.

Ready in Red takes place on Valentine’s Day, when a girl shouldn’t be alone with only Netflix for company. Val gets pulled out to a bar by a friend in need, only to find a hot and friendly bartender who makes her very glad she remembered to wear her matching red lingerie that morning. She’s primed and ready for a steamy night, and Zach more than delivers.This book contains strong sexual content and is not suitable for readers under 17.

Both of these books were tremendous fun to write. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed bringing them to you. I’m now partway through my next endeavor – this time a contemporary romance. Stay tuned!

Amazon Is Really Hacking Me Off, So While We Wait…Have An Excerpt!

I was hoping by late yesterday, I’d have a link to Changeling on Amazon, but no such luck. The book has been “in review” for damn near two days now, and I have no idea why.

It’s not the end of the world – people can still buy it via Smashwords (and yes, they even have a version for Kindle) but it just seems so…naked having only 2/3 of my trilogy up on Amazon. It irritates me.

So I’m going to get over my irritation by offering you another excerpt from the book. Enjoy! Continue reading →

Yes! It’s Here! It’s Finally Here!! CHANGELING Is Now Available!!

I know, I know…it was long overdue, but I promise, it was worth the wait. Changeling: Book Three of the Seeder Saga is now available via Smashwords, and should be up on Amazon sometime later today – check this post and I’ll add the link in when it goes live, I promise.

I want to thank each and every one of you who have so patiently waited for Indar’s story, and to catch up with Rain, Ajan, Miri and the men of Falenua. You’re going to get to spend time with all of them, and I promise, you’re going to love my gutsy Lizzie, charming Indar, and the secrets that define them.

This trilogy doesn’t read like a normal trilogy, I know. The first two books could easily be stand-alone stories, and that was by design. I wanted it all to come together in this book, and it does, beautifully.

So give Changeling a try, and don’t forget my Valentine novella “Ready in Red,” also available via Amazon and Smashwords.

My Brain Is All Over The Place Today

I have a serious case of what I call “Irons-in-the-Fire Syndrome.” I have the final edits and read-through of Changeling to finish so I can release (hopefully today, but maybe tomorrow if I get interrupted), but my next book is demanding that I pay attention to it. The plot is rich and full and already mapping itself out, throwing chunks of dialogue at me, moistening my eyes with tender moments, and making me squirm on my commute home with thoughts of how well these two people fit together.

In addition to that, I have new FanFiction to plan out (although that’s not as huge of a deal. I’ve started fics with a lot less to go on and the beauty of Fanfic is you have to write one chapter at a time and it leads you to the plot points as they evolve). And alongside all that, I have a job writing articles for an online magazine, this blog and another blog to manage, and I have a non-fiction book I’m putting together on a specialized subject.

All while working a full-time day job and with primary custody of two kids.

No wonder I don’t have a social life. Sheesh.
