Happy Friday, Everyone – Here’s Another Teasing Peek At Book 3 Of The Seeder Saga!
Are you ready for another tease of the upcoming book? Changeling is the story of Indar, a Seeder who travels the galaxy “seeding” people onto existing and newly-colonized worlds, and Lizzie, a human girl who isn’t all she appears to be. The chemistry between them takes them both by surprise, and we get to watch them sizzle. Here’s a tiny taste of what they’ve got in store…
I’m Still In The Mood To Tease! Here’s A Bit Of “Eight Nights At Sea”
I think I’ll continue teasing you a bit (we all love a good tease, don’t we?). This time, you get a small taste of “Eight Nights At Sea. Here we get to know Zephyr and Rina as they declare a truce after a particularly fiery (and steamy) encounter involving a tossed-up skirt and a bushel of apples.
Closing Out Tease Week: Here’s A Never-Before-Seen Peek Into “Changeling”
Hello readers – and here it is, the final installment of tease week! I thought I’d end things with a look into the upcoming final installment of the Seeder Saga, “Changeling.”
Lizzie is kidnapped from Earth by a handsome stranger, only to find 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 catch up with our old friends, Miri, Raine, and their men – all of whom prove valuable in this quest.
Tease Week Is Still Going Strong, With More Of Rain’s Story!
Continuing our teasing theme leading up to the release of Changeling: Book Three of the Seeder Saga…here’s a little more of Rain and Ajan’s story from book two of the Seeder Saga, Rain in the Moonlight.
Tease Week Continues With Another Peek At “Sky Woman”
In anticipation of the pending release of Changeling: Book Three of the Seeder Saga, I’m teasing you with excerpts of books one and two from The Seeder Saga series. Today, you get another peek at Miri, from book one: “Sky Woman.”
Miri is being avidly pursued by three brothers who want her for their own. Each one has his own unique style, and one of my favorites to write for was Kaivan, the youngest brother. he’s funny, he’s unashamedly flirtatious, and he’s got mad skills between the sheets.
Another Installment Of “Tease Week”: Meet Rain!
Hello everyone, and welcome to the second installment of “Tease Week!” As promised, I’ll be posting excerpts from both books in the Seeder series, in anticipation of the release of “Changeling: Book Three of the Seeder Saga.”
Rain has been sent to take care of a man seen as a direct threat to her people. Little does she know, she’s going to help him get to who he’s been hired to look for. Their first encounter was meant to be their last, but Ajan sees to it that things don’t go as planned….
Welcome To Tease Week, Everybody! Here’s A Taste Of “Sky Woman”
In anticipation of the pending release of Changeling: Book Three of the Seeder Saga, I’ve decided to spend the week teasing the hell out of you with bits and pieces of the first two novels. Today, you get a tiny taste of Miri’s world in “Sky Woman.”
What happens when you land on a planet where you’re an extremely valued commodity? And what happens when three gorgeous men decide they’re going to win you? Steam. That’s what happens…
How Do You Market A Story That Straddles Two Different Ends Of The Spectrum?
When I first wrote “Sky Woman,” I had a really, really hard time pitching this book through traditional channels. Oh, don’t get me wrong – every editor I sent it to loved the damn book. They loved the characters, they loved the steam, they loved the science fiction, and most of all, they loved the way they were completely gobsmacked by one of the plot hooks.
And therein lies the rub…
That very plot hook is what makes my story “not your usual steamy sci-fi romance” material. By the same token, despite the interesting and adventurous direction the plot takes, this is very much a story about love and relationship and commitment within the romance.
I can’t really explain in detail why that is (so as not to spoil the book) but suffice it to say, after each editor waxed poetic about how amazing this book was, it was almost always followed by “I just really don’t know where I’m going to put it.”
So they wanted me to change it, make it more mainstream. Or they wanted me to add in some extra scenes, things that involved more swinging-type behaviors, group scenes, intense BDSM, etc.
I couldn’t do it.
And it’s not because I don’t like those things – they just weren’t this book. There’s more than enough going on here, and due to the nature of Miri and her situation, those things wouldn’t necessarily make sense within the framework of the story. All they’d do is give the publisher the page fodder they need to put the book more comfortably into their pre-arranged category.
So after turning down two different editors (one at a pretty big online erotica site), I decided to go it alone, and I’m glad I did. Sky Woman turned out to be a story that I’m fiercely proud of.
Now if I could just figure out how to talk about the story without giving too much away…
So buy my book. It’s got a really unique premise, lots of hot sex (and I mean LOTS), humor, science fiction, and fun.
Cover Art Is In For Book 3 Of The Seeder Saga: Changeling!
It’s awesome, isn’t it? My cover artist, the amazing Colleen Kennedy of Mystique Book Designs has really hit it out of the park for me. This girl is Lizzie. And the cover tells you this girl is nobody’s fool. Unlike the other two stories in the series, Changeling will not be a one-world story, so we’re going to have one hell of an adventure, and of course, we’ll be checking in with our old friends, Miri and Rain, and the men that go with them.
I am so excited for this one. I promise, it’s worth the wait I put you through.
