BREACHERS: Holt and McKenna
Book 1
Contemporary Fantasy/ Paranormal Romance
Word Count: 28.1K
$0.99 e / $9.99 p

They are the cause of many legends, myths, and fairy tales. And they still live among us.

There are creatures from a parallel world called Breachers who, for hundreds of years, have been inadvertently pulled into our world. They are the truth behind the creatures normally considered to be mythic. Once on Earth, they cannot go back, and those who cannot cope become rabid. Murderers. And when they go berserk, they must be put down.

Jerrod Holt always wondered why he was selected to be part of the secret governmental organization. More perplexing is why his skills as a professional bodyguard are needed.

He discovers his partner assigned to help him bring down a Breacher is the one woman who had caught his eye the moment he saw her at their initial group meeting. Together, he and McKenna travel to Utah to confront a killer beast, not knowing that the terror will be all too real, and too damn close to home.

Warning: Contains smart ass remarks, unbearable cold, a nightmare come to life, toe loss, rabbit farming, a search for the truth, and an unconditional love that defies all boundaries.

BREACHERS: Hawthorne and Marya
Book 2
Contemporary Fantasy/ Paranormal Romance

Word Count: 32.4K

$0.99 e / $9.99 p

They are the cause of many legends, myths, and fairy tales. And they still live among us.

Arik Hawthorne prefers to be a loner. He has a dark secret to protect, and as a professional kick boxer, he is able to work off the wild energy that fills his life.

His whole world changes when he is partnered with Corinth Marya, and they are ordered to find and stop the creature that is killing innocent people in New Mexico.

If going after the Breacher isn't bad enough, he finds himself seriously and dangerously attracted to the army lieutenant. There is no way he can let her find out about his real self, but neither can he deny the possibility that she may be his one and only chance at love and happiness.

They never foresee the danger that will threaten their lives, or the passion that will pose an even greater problem.

Dragons, anyone?

Warning! Contains unrelenting heat, calling for sex advice, invisible targets, hamburgers, pistol-packing, vengeful dirt, and hard and hot leathery love.

BREACHERS: Viento and Bycote
Book 3
Contemporary Fantasy/ Paranormal Romance
Word Count: 49K
$0.99 e / $9.99 p

They are the cause of many legends, myths, and fairy tales. And they still live among us.

Someone is slaughtering young women in London, and using the same methods as Jack the Ripper did in the late 1800s. As much as the Metro police try to deny it, all signs point to the fact that the infamous killer could be back - somehow, some way.

Ex-lovers and now partners, Jahar Viento and Fasha Bycote are sent to track down the murderer, whom they believe is actually the work of a Breacher. A Breacher who may have found a way to transcend time. A Breacher known as a garphar. Or, more commonly, a vampire.

Their abilities, their past history together, and their still fiery attraction to each other will be sorely tested as they draw closer and closer to the killer... 

Because it will take a vampire to kill a vampire.

Warning! Contains fried chicken (extra crispy but not spicy), venom, undeniable passion, time traveling, living a nightmare, scrumptious cattle blood, and two people desperately in love, but with secrets that are determined to keep them apart.

Excerpts and Buy Links

A Chilled Drink, Ice Cream, and a COOL Summer Read

How many times have you said around February, “I can’t wait for warmer weather”? How many times this month have you said, “I can’t wait for cooler weather”?

I heard that phrase spoken the other day, and it got me to thinking. Reading is mental. We all know that. But why read a book that takes place on the hottest of summer nights when you're already sweltering in triple-digit temperatures? Which made me wonder - what if I picked up a romance novel that takes place in the middle of winter? With the frigid winds blowing around the hero and heroine, would my body translate that suggestion into feeling cooler?

Go ahead. Try out this little experiment and tell me what you find out. I discovered the answer, and you can, too!

Beat the heat! Read about a snowstorm or a wintry Arctic blast! And here are a couple of books to help you get started!

A DIFFERENT YESTERDAY
Sensuous Sci-Fi, Post-Apocalyptic, Futuristic Romance

Links. 

The Apocalypse.

It didn't come because of man's inhumanity to man. It didn't come from bombs, or plague, or even from aliens descending from outer space. In fact, no one knows what triggered it. And even if they did, there was no way to turn back time.

Only one thing was certain. One evening the sun had grown unexpectedly bigger and hotter, and heat and radiation unlike anything ever experienced washed over the Earth, bathing it in searing rays that devoured over three-quarters of the world's population.

Now the sun is smaller, and it doesn't radiate as much heat as it used to. The world is colder. Food is scarce, and people are fighting to stay alive.

Andrew Michael Tollson, aka "The Silent Wraith", was a man who roamed from settlement to outpost to city, offering his protection from scavengers and renegades. Years ago, right before the sun had exploded, when he had been a boy growing up in a small Texas town, he had felt his first crush for the little tomboy he knew as Jo. Now, as a grown man, he has finally made his way back to his boyhood home to see if Jo is still alive, or if she has been a victim of the Apocalypse. He has to know if the dreams and memories he has harbored were mere fantasies, or if the infatuation he'd felt then has grown into something else, something stronger and more tangible.

JoBeth Wythe was a member of The Triad, three leaders who protected their little settlement, and tried to recall the carefree days before the Apocalypse. All they wanted was the chance at a decent life, with enough food, some shared warmth, and a little hope for the future. She had never forgotten the pudgy little kid who had followed her around when she was growing up, the little boy she called Mikey. Every time she thought of him, it only brought back pain and a wistfulness for a past that no longer existed.

For Drew and Jo, it was only a matter of time before they would be reunited to fight together. To survive together. And to discover that the innocent kisses they had shared as children had grown into a love that would overwhelm them with desire.

Warning!  Contains permanent extreme cold, love everlasting, survivalists, separation, a legend in the making, a brutal mass murder, childhood friends to lovers, and the end of the world as we know it.

It's November, and For Some, the Writing Craziness Has Only Begun

November is a time when authors try to rev up their creative engines and tackle the NaNoWriMo, otherwise known as National Novel Writing Month. I tried in the past to tackle composing 50,000 words in 30 days, and I always got off to a great start, but then one of three things usually happened: I wrote myself into a corner, I lost interest in the story, or I came to the realization that the story wasn't going to fill up all that room. And all three of these problems boiled down to one undeniable truth - I can't write under pressure. 

I was that way through high school and college. Give me a term paper with a month-long deadline, and I was a happy camper. I'd start on the project that day, get it finished about a week prior to the due date, then sit back and watch all the other students scurry like ants to get theirs done at the last minute.

I like to take my time. No deadlines. No rushing. No stress headaches. Better still, if I find myself greeting that corner again, or petering out on an idea, I have the option of picking up where I left off on another book. You could say it's a wonder I have completed any books at all!

My latest release, believe it or not, was started three years ago. I felt it was a good premise, and I loved the characters, but I didn't have an ending for it in my head yet. While perusing my works-in-progress file, I came across it, reread and edited what was already there, and voila! I finally knew what I was going to do with it!

So letting it stew subconsciously all this time was a good thing for me. Guess you could say my brain works like a crock pot.
