She shook her head wildly, but it was no use…
The orderly held her down gently as the the nurse
quickly administered the sedative into the IV line.

Book Excerpt Tuesday: Earthsinger Begins With A Bang
In the third book of the Elemental Destinies, Earthsinger, we meet up once again with Manni, who is traveling cross-country with Matt – a former MMA fighter who’s unwittingly mixed up in a global mystery.
Manni is there to keep him out of harm’s way until they can figure out what part his father had in the story that’s been slowly unraveling through Windsinger and then again in Seasinger.
Matt isn’t your average muscle-bound lunkhead, and Manni is far from just another pretty face. After too many hours on the road, tempers ignite, but there’s more simmering than just a little road rage… Continue reading
Monday Shoutout – Tabitha Barret’s Third Throne Series
Just wanted to give you all a heads up in case you missed it – Tabitha Barret is giving away three signed copies of the latest installment of The Third Throne series: Angel of Vengeance!
Anjali has embraced her destiny to end the world, but now she must find her ten Harbingers, known as the Predznak. She is determined to find Alazar, the Angel of Death, the former leader of the Predznak, before the other angels. She fears that he has lost hope and is close to becoming a Rogue Angel.
Alazar has spent too many centuries waiting for his Master Anjali to come and claim him. Deception and lies have kept them apart, but now it’s too late. He has vowed to the other Predznak that he will kill their Master so that they can be free. Continue reading
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“It means, Lizzie, that I find you interesting. And when you’ve seen as much of the galaxy as I have, and met as many people as I have, that’s really saying something.”

Get Your #FREE Copy Of WINDSINGER!
I’m wrapping up the final edits of Earthsinger, and the cover reveal is coming soon! In the meantime, you can go back to where the series began with a FREE copy of Windsinger today and tomorrow only!!
Meet the Elementals – a magical race that inhabits our world embodying 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.
I Am A Bad Author. Bad. I Am Bad.
I have spent the last 30 days under major serious deadline pressure. And now….it just got worse. Some things have collided professionally, and I find myself without enough hours in a day (or cells in my brain) to get all the writing done that needs to be done. I spent almost all of Memorial Day weekend looking like that picture above.
Okay, that’s a lie. I looked more like this:
But I made headway, and that’s a start. The long and short of all this is….Earthsinger is going to have to get pushed back. I had hoped for a mid-June break on that book, but it’s now looking to be late July.
Readers, I apologize.
“Have you harmed her?” he demanded…
He was ominously still. “Tell your men if they
touch her, I will kill them. Personally, and slowly.”

Excerpt Tuesday: Sky Woman Meets Determined Suitor
I have a special place in my heart for Sky Woman. Not only was it my first full-length novel, but it was quite a departure from just about anything else out there in the paranormal/fantasy romance genre. The plot device was every woman’s fantasy come true, and I spent many a squirmy afternoon commute home from the day job fantasizing up scenes and dialogue.
In this scene, our girl Miri and the eldest son of Falenua house, Lunan, find themselves trapped in a mountain cabin during a rainstorm. Night is falling, and so are Miri’s inhibitions… Continue reading
