Book News: Winter Wonderland

I’m very happy to announce that on December 14th – exactly one month from today - Winter Wonderland will be available at MLR Press!

Winter Wonderland is a male/male contemporary romance that takes place in New York during Christmas. Winter Wonderland is the sweetest story (not cloying sweet - just sweet) I’ve ever written and I'm looking forward to sharing more news about Connor and Delaney soon.

Below are the book blurb and cover for Winter Wonderland:

For Connor Marino, Christmas can’t get here soon enough. It’s his first holiday alone with his boyfriend, Delaney Carmichael, and they plan to celebrate by playing tourists in New York City on Christmas Eve, followed by a romantic Christmas day at home. But lately Delaney’s
behavior has been odd and Connor is concerned. Connor knows Delaney loves him. Yet he can’t help but wonder if their “Winter Wonderland” of a holiday will be the thing that sends his and Delaney’s relationship into deep freeze...or be the gift the two of them need.

The Taste of Magick is now also available on All Romance eBooks!

The Taste of Magick is being reissued!

That's right - just in time for Jason and Travis's anniversary, The Taste of Magick will be re-released for a new, lower price - .99 cents!!! It's the same story with only a few minor (non-substantive) changes. Best of all, The Taste of Magick will be available on Amazon (US, UK, France, and Germany), Barnes and Noble, and All Romance eBooks.

It'll be a day or two before the book is available, but I'll be posting the details as soon as it's released. In the meantime, check out The Taste of Magick's HOT new cover:

Only one week until Halloween!

Perhaps that should read, "Only one week until Halloween?!!!" I seem to have lost most of October to editing Blood Rose. But before I get sidetracked rambling on about next month’s paranormal, I wanted to talk about Halloween magick…or rather, The Taste of Magick.

Like sexy warlocks making up and making love on All Hallows’ Eve? Hate that they miniaturize candy on Halloween? If you answered “Yes” to either of those questions, check out my male/male paranormal romance, The Taste of Magick, available now at Torquere Press and All Romance eBooks. For more information, check out The Taste of Magick page on my website.

Book News: Blood Rose

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.
