I'm so, so, SO excited to announce that the first book in my Realm of Nine series will be available this winter! Blood Rose is due out on November 29, 2011 at Loose Id!!!
Blood Rose is a full-length male/female paranormal romance novel. It's a lot darker than my current books, but I'm very excited for readers to delve into the Realm of Nine series. I love Grayson and Rose and there are so many characters in Blood Rose that I want to write about.
Right now there's an unofficial book blurb on my website and closer to the release date I'll be posting it here as well :)

Cross Bones is now available!!!
Who wants to read about sexy pirates? Me! I'm very excited to announce that my newest story, "On the Wings of Lir,", is now available at Dreamspinner Press as part of the Cross Bones anthology!!!!
Cross Bones is out in both ebook and paperback form. You can find the ebook HERE and the paperback HERE.
I can't wait to get my copy and read my fellow authors' stories. I hope everyone enjoys the Cross Bones anthology. I had a great time writing "On the Wings of Lir" - the roguish Captain Kelly and the not-so-innocent Lieutenant Hugh Edwards were a delight. I'm really looking forward to revising the steampunk world I created - hopefully later this year, should my schedule allow for it. A secondary character from Hugh and Kelly's story has been talking to me ;)
About "On the Wings of Lir":
In the time of Queen Victoria, the invention of airships has brought about a resurgence in piracy. Of all the buccaneers who sail the skies, pillaging merchant airships, the worst is Patrick Kelly, captain of the Wings of Lir. When fate lands Captain Kelly in Hugh Edwards's path, the young lieutenant can't believe his luck. He's determined to capture the pirate...but finds himself caught instead.
About Cross Bones:
Ahoy, me proud beauty, shiver me timbers! I ask ye to sail me jollyboat on the high seas, lubber, but will ye dare to accept? On offer be a pirate's life full of danger and risk, and not just to yer neck, but to yer very virgin heart! There's many a bodice to be ripped--or perhaps I should say many a codpiece to be snapped--and should ye be graced enough to cross bones with a corsair, don't be an addlepate! Heave ho, lad, handsomely, and show him how ye bury yer treasure!
Pirates didn't only sail the high seas in historical times. Modern-day renegades and futuristic rebels are just as ripe for adventure and plunder. No matter the time, place, or circumstances, bad boys steal affection as often as they salvage treasure, and in these stories of romance, a rogue's black heart always conceals a center of gold.
Stories included:
Captain Merric by Rebecca Cohen
Rough Trade by Cooper West
Touched by the West Wind by Ellen Holiday
The Winds of Change by Maggie Lee
My Hand in Yours by Emily Moreton
Ghost of Jupiter by Jana Denardo
The Golden Galleon by K.R. Foster
Objectivity by K.J. Johnson
Worth the Price by Cornelia Grey
Peter and the Lost Boys by Juan Kenobi
Officer and a Gentleman Pirate by E.S. Douglas
On the Wings of Lir by Riley Shane
From a Simmer to a Burn by B. Snow
Irish Red by MJ O'Shea
Black John by Piper Vaughn

T-1 month until the sparks - and airships - fly!
That's right - there's only one month to go until the Cross Bones anthology - with my steampunk romance, "On the Wings of Lir," in it - releases from Dreamspinner Press!!!
I just sent the galley back to my editor, so now it's time to hurry up and wait for the release of Cross Bones. I can't wait to read my fellow authors' stories. I love a good pirate romance, so I'm particularly excited for this anthology :)
To whet your appetite for "On the Wings of Lir," here's the (unedited) blurb:

Of all the buccaneers who sail the skies, pillaging merchant airships, the worst is Patrick Kelly, captain of the Wings of Lir. When fate lands Captain Kelly in Hugh Edwards's path, the young lieutenant can't believe his luck. He's determined to capture the pirate...but finds himself caught instead.

Book News: On the Wings of Lir
A quick note before the breaking news: Thank you SO much everyone who has purchased Chasing Alex. It was on Dreamspinner Press's bestseller list for more than two weeks and I'm both honored and thrilled by this :)
I'm very excited to announce that I'll have another new story out this summer. "On the Wings of Lir" will be available August 15th in Dreamspinner Press's Cross Bones anthology!!! Best of all? The Cross Bones anthology will be available in both ebook and print!
"On the Wings of Lir" is a male/male steampunk romance. That's right - steampunk, pirates, and romance. I'll post more information closer to the release date, but for now I'll say that "On the Wings of Lir was both fun and challenging for me. I've never written steampunk before, but creating the world of Lieutenant Hugh Edwards and Captain Patrick Kelly was exciting. As for the men themselves...damn, those guys had a few surprises in store for me as I wrote. I hope you enjoy this pair. As of right now, "On the Wings of Lir is a standalone story, but who knows? Perhaps these guys might talk to me again in the future.
Regarding the anthology as a whole, Cross Bones will contain stories from a variety of genres. The one thing all the stories have in common? Pirates, of course ;)
Now it's back to work for me. I've got the edits for "On the Wings of Lir sitting on my virtual desk. And after I finish with Hugh and Kelly....*rubs hands together*....just wait and see.

I'm very excited to announce that my newest story, Chasing Alex, released yesterday at Dreamspinner Press! I had a blast writing Chase and Alex's story and I hope you all enjoy it :)

The passion between them burns bright and hot, until Alex grows tired of keeping their relationship a secret—and of being the one who’s always ridden. Alex lays down an ultimatum, and then the rest is up to Chase. Does Chase let the best thing in his life run away to the family ranch, or is he brave enough to chase Alex down?

What's on your nightstand?
I'm hard at work on a story, but I'm trying to sneak in a book here or there. On my virtual nightstand this week is a sexy paranormal romance:
Ardent by Jan Irving
MLR Press
Erotic Male/Male Paranormal Romance
ISBN: 978-1-60820-368-0 (print) / 978-1-60820-369-7 (ebook)
Buy it here at MLR Press:
It sounded like something from one of the graphic novels Jaime Anderson aspires to create, but Arden Kaller is real. Once the lover of Jaime's older brother, his blood coats Jaime's lips the first night he hits town when he heals him after Jaime is involved in an altercation in a brick-lined alley. Arden has spent long years studying his amphora, his pot shards. How can a small town boy exert such a hold on him? But it isn't long before he tricks Jaime into wearing his mystical token.
Jaime's life is complicated enough just handling classes. Now his guitar-playing friend Mondo turns out to be a werewolf who wants Jaime to be his-and then there is Arden, his dark, dangerous, and slightly nerdy vampire lover.
