Back earlier this year I published Deadly Alchemy. It is my historical/steampunk/paranormal novel about vampires, werewolves, and an alchemist in a heap of trouble. I had intended on this being a stand alone novel. Well the characters thought different! Fatal Intentions, book 2, has a target date set for Tuesday, January 19, 2016. If this changes, I'll be sure to communicate it immediately. Look for the cover reveal to happen soon! If you've not read Deadly Alchemy, pick your copy up today! And the second part of my post, the new series in the works! Back in March, I finished writing Delta Force, the first novel in the new series I'm starting called "Special Ops". It will be a military romance series based on realistic events that have occurred during times of war. The first book is not based on real life events, but the accounts are factual. The other stories, I will be interviewing soldiers that have been in Special Ops, Commanders, Leaders, Snipers, Rangers, etc. Their stories will be told. I am looking forward to this new adventure and I hope you hold on tight with me because the ride WILL be wild! I'm featuring Kenolivier Gisbert on the cover of Delta Force. He's as excited as I am to see the finished product. Ken and James, the amazing photog, thank you for everything and capturing what I was looking for! So stay tuned! There will be more to come! If you've not joined my newsletter (click here), do so now! They will get to see the preview of Fatal Intentions and Delta Force before anyone else!

Welcome to the annual blog hop, hosted by Author JoLynne Valerie! I'm so excited to be a part of this blog hop again!
So what stands out to me regarding Halloween? Well first, dressing up, cosplay, the fun of spooky decorations is not just one time a year for me. I LOVE dressing up, cosplaying my favorite characters and for Halloween, it gives me reason to go TEN FOLD! I LOVE this time of year! Fall is my favorite season! Living in Florida I do not get to enjoy the changing of the seasons, but I have lived in places like Chicago where the seasons are part of the reason for living there! So beautiful! Some of my favorite parts of Halloween are anything paranormal! Angels, demons, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, goblins and anything that goes bump in the night! Give me a good gothic romance, suspenseful paranormal story, you have me hooked!
For this blog hop, I would love to give away an ebook copy of Deadly Alchemy. Reply to this post on my blog to enter. This is my historical/steampunk paranormal story about vampires, werewolves, and alchemy. Check out the book trailer! I'll pick a winner using Mister Random!
Southern RootsReminder that Southern Roots is still 99 cents! If you've not ventured into the world of Bobby Ray and Lexi, now is your chance to while it's on sale! When Paramour publishes, you can download ALL five books at once! None of them end on a cliff hanger and can be read out of order, although I recommend in order for character development. While we're talking Southern Roots, I have toyed with the idea of extending the series. Where I've mentioned Paramour being the last book; this is most likely the truth. However, I do believe a collection of short stories will be coming soon. Clive is not done (he's a talker!) and I believe we'll be meeting his family (aka: brothers) very soon! I think Scarlet may also be back in the picture (you met her in Fueled Desire). Writing, writing and MORE writing...I've mentioned Marianne Morea and I have ventured into co-writing a story together. We are both pretty darn excited for this! Think... Lord of the Rings meets Harry Potter in King Arthur's court. Yeah... it's like that. Again, EXCITED!!!! We've named the beauty "Dragon Master". Let your imagination run from there... Almost a year ago I began writing a new series about military special ops. Book one titled: Delta Force. That is still happening! I've secured what will be the cover image and once I get to a point I can focus on that story, edits will take place. Depending on writing time, you may see it come early summer time. That is, of course, unless I have the third book in the Deadly Alchemy series completed... it is outlined so it will happen!
That is all for now. Stay tuned and keep in touch! Paramour will be here before you know it! Oh, and the release date is October 22nd... MY BIRTHDAY!!! Did you know my first book, Fallen, is still free? If you haven't grabbed yours yet, get it today! Also, Southern Roots, book one in the Southern Roots series is also on sale for 99 cents! Grab it and see where it all began with Bobby Ray, Lexi, Blaine, Matt and the others! Collaboration efforts...Previously, I talked about collaborative efforts with Marianne Morea. Well good news! We finally started! First two chapters are completed and I believe tomorrow we'll have the next two. The genre? Sci-fi/Fantasy where Lord of the Rings meets Harry Potter in a medieval King Author's court type of world. It's going to be super fun and I cannot WAIT to see where it goes! There's potential for quite a few stories on this so let's see what happens! Writing...Paramour and Fatal Intentions beta edits have come back. As I work through the stories, the love of the characters continue to hold onto me. Derek's story, Paramour, ends the series in novel form, but keep look out on the stories continuing in short story form. I'm looking to write a collection of Southern Roots short stories to publish in 2016. Fatal Intentions picks up after Deadly Alchemy. The photo shoot for Fatal Intentions will be taking place this weekend! EEK I'm so excited! I'll see about taking some sneak peek pictures for you! You remember the cover for City Lights, book two in the Southern Roots series? Same awesome guy, Mike McCann, will be taking the photo shoot for me so hold on tight for the wild ride! Marcus and Sarah will be represented on the cover of Fatal Intentions! Events...April 6-10, 2016 I'll be attending The Novel Experience Event (TNEE) in Atlanta! August 3-7, 2016 I'll be attending Authors After Dark as a Featured Author in Savannah! August 26-27, 2016 I'll be attending Authors in the Sand in Daytona! November 12th, 2016 I'll be attending Beach Babe Book Blast in Tampa! More happening in 2016!In 2016 I'll be plotting out more stories in different genres! I have a military romance started and book one is already done, and cover image purchased. Woo it is HOT! I cannot wait to introduce you to Logan Jackson!
I also wrote the first story to the spin off to Chronicles of the Fallen series. You'll see it soon in an anthology I'm doing with other authors, aka: the super secret project! More details will be coming soon...including the hot HOT cover!!! Audio Book!
ParamourComing January 2016 will be the next book in the Southern Roots series, Paramour! Notice I did not say final? More will come, that I can definitely tell you! Paramour is Derek's story. If you've read City Lights and/or Driven Hunger, you've met Derek and know a little bit about him. Synopsis: Can he accept love if he can’t accept himself? Lead man of Mongrels of Soul, Derek, has a secret. His friends have accepted his secret, but will the world? One thing for certain, once the world knows, this could make or break him… or would it? Meeting a man of a lifetime, Derek wants to pursue what he feels. Scott, a male revue dancer, wants Derek to go public. When he hesitates, will Scott wait for him? More than chords will be played and it is up to Derek to make the final move. Fatal IntentionsSoon after, the sequel to Deadly Alchemy will release! Titled Fatal Intentions, this story will take you back in time of corsets and bustle skirts, mixed with steampunk ingenuity. John and Amelia are back, as well as Adam, Sophie and Sarah. You'll also meet new characters: Irina, Marcas, Tomas, and Elena. All play a pretty big role in this story. It is quite different from Deadly Alchemy, but kept the same premise; vampires, werewolves, and a new supernatural being: Necromancers. It is a wild ride so be ready for it early spring 2016! Special Ops: Delta Force
Super Secret ProjectShh! I can't say anymore than this! Well maybe one thing; it's a spin off from Chronicles of the Fallen! More Samuel, Alex and Michael! Collaborative Effort with Marianne MoreaThat's right! Marianne and I have put our heads together to begin writing a book together! We've talked about it, mewed over ideas, tossed things here and there, then finally, came up with a great idea! We're just at the beginning stages. I think we may try to have it completed for publishing in 2016, but don't tell Marianne I said that! HA! Events and Appearances 2016Be sure to check out my Events page for all the details!

Alchemist Amelia Rimos has just discovered the cure for the Undead. Being naïve and vulnerable, she does not realize the Undead have their targets set on her. Happening upon a tall, dark, exotic man named Michel Gauthier, he saves her from becoming a victim, thrusting her into a game of cat and mouse. Amelia realizes being an Alchemist is not in her best interest when she befriends him. Is Michel as sincere as he seems or does he have an ulterior motive? When her life cannot be more complicated, John Hawthorne interjects himself into Amelia's life and shifts it completely upside down. He informs Amelia she has the key to their survival. Soon, she will realize the Undead are not the only monsters in the world… Amelia will find herself in a stalemate: She will be forced to choose between destroying her evidence and saving the man she’s grown to love or destroying over half the population of the world, including the love of her life with it.

Matt, Deep Ember’s drummer, enjoyed his music and his women. When Makayla came back into the spotlight, he knew he wanted her, but how much, he was not sure. When Matt discovers the torment Makayla has been through, will he be able to keep his own feelings from surfacing? Will Makayla guard her heart from being hurt again?
