Kaylea Cross Release

It's release day for my not-so-naughty alter ego, Kaylea Cross!

Darkest Caress is the first of a paranormal romance trilogy and today she's doing a giveaway at both Cynthia Eden's blog and Novel Thoughts blog. To enter either contest, stop by and leave a comment.

Blurb: Two-hundred-year-old Daegan Blackwell is one of the last remaining Empowered, an ancient magical race. Daegan’s duty is to lead and protect his remaining Brethren in the coming war foretold by prophecy. The last thing he expects is to meet the one woman who will either save or destroy him—his destined mate.

Fiercely independent Realtor Olivia Farrell believes darkly handsome Daegan is simply a prospective client. Until she’s attacked by a man with a strange aura—and Daegan fights him off, taking away her pain with just his touch. At first, Olivia refuses to believe she’s part of a magical race, yet mounting evidence and her powerful chemistry with Daegan are too strong to deny.

But as Daegan’s partner, Olivia becomes a target in the battle between good and evil that threatens her life, as well as the very existence of the Empowered. And the only one who can save her is the man claiming to be her destiny…

New Contract

Just found out that Carina Press is going to contract the short erotic romance I sent them a few weeks back. Angela James e-mailed to tell me she'd read it personally and loved it, and that my new editor fell in love with it too. The working title is No Holds Barred, and I'm calling it a "vanilla menage with BDSM elements". Go figure that one out!

My erotic romance editor there seems super fun and I'm looking forward to working with her. In fact, I'm plotting out another short right now and hope to finish it before I leave for Hawaii in early March. Then it's back to the second book of my Bagram Special Ops series, a military romantic suspense under my other pen name Kaylea Cross.

Will keep you posted as to a release date, but it will probably be late summer or fall.
