California, 1985. Four children and young teacher Anne Navarre make a gruesome discovery; a partially buried female body, her eyes and mouth glued shut. A serial killer is at large, and the very bonds that hold their idyllic town together are about to be tested to the breaking point. Tasked with fining the killer, FBI investigator Vince Leone employs a new and controversial FBI technique called “profiling” which plunges him into the lives of the four children — and the […]

Go visit my Etsy store and click the Like (the heart button in the menu at the top) and/or Favorite buttons on the store itself […]

It’s been a while since I’ve done one of my monthly giveaways. About time I got back to it, I say. Surrender to Me is about a tightly wound duchess with a passionate heart who goes off to Scotland to stop the rotten husband who stole her dowry and is now trying to bilk some other fair maid out of her dowry by claiming to be someone he isn’t. It’s a hard journey, one that leads her into the dangerous […]

When Phin discovers that someone has been pushing his family toward ruin, he assumes the role of a legendary highwayman. Riding out in the middle of the night, hidden behind a mask, Phin heads straight into trouble… and […]
I did a teaser on this one last Tuesday, and will do another tomorrow. Mia Mitchell is a police officer, a daughter of a police officer, and a mess. She’s lost two partners and taken a few shots already and doesn’t want to lose any more. The best way to see that happen is to not get another partner. But in the police world it doesn’t work that way. When Chicago Fire Department Lieutenant Reed Solliday comes to the department […]

I’ve been teasing you with this one for weeks now. If you haven’t already caved and gotten your copy, here’s your chance to get the ebook version. Trevor Wolff was born to rock. Or he would be if he could play an instrument. Unluckily, he has more talent for madness and mayhem than bass guitar. Despite a harsh upbringing in the trailer court which has resulted in some peculiar quirks, he’s got a wicked since of humor. There’s a sweetness […]
For the Duke of Fletcher and Lady Perdita Selby, it was a love match. A quick and smooth courtship in the beautiful city of Paris followed by a grand wedding should have lead to a life in perfect harmony. Were it not for the ideals pounded into Perdita by a domineering and cold hearted mother, this might have actually worked. Alas for the poor duke, Perdita behaved in bed as if she could not stand to lay with him, no […]
I know, I should have done this at the beginning of October instead of the beginning of November, but I’m still fairly close to Halloween. I’m giving away a vampire book. Blurb from the back: Hollywood stunt-woman turned vampire hunter Dawn Madison is tired to the bone and beyond. With her comrades in arms, she managed to wipe out the Los Angeles vampire Underground. And in doing so, she uncovered not only her own dark family heritage but also a […]

It was one heck of a contest. I’ve never had anything like it before. In three days I gathered nearly 600 entries. To make my selections, I printed out the comments, plus duplicates of the ones I told you would get you extra entries. The Girl cut them all into slips of paper, folded them, and made a pile. Check it out. Yes, that’s the quilt under it. I still have the edging to put on, but otherwise I’m done. […]
