J.C. McKenzie answered Carli's question: Curious as to why the Obsidian Flame series is here but not on your website? Looking forward to meeting you at BB4E! Hi Carli! I removed the Obsidian Flames series from publication because I’m revising them and releasing them as a single book called Fury and Fire. The story will first appear in a special edition omnibus called Cursed and Claimed in October 2025. I’m See Full Answer

“I meant to text quickly, but it took five attempts to type with my thumbs. Ever since the time I accidentally told Wick I'd stopped for cocaine instead of coffee and when Mel, my best friend, asked me to get penis instead of pedis, I lost my faith in technology and proofread all my messages”

“As soon as I stepped onto the train, I knew why Shifters and Weres shunned the contraptions like E.coli avoided antibacterial agents on a petri dish. It smelled. Badly. A putrid mix of old man, sweaty socks, and cigarettes. My nose hairs didn't shrivel; they curled into the fetal position before they withered and died, leaving my nasal passage a dry, barren wasteland no longer capable of being harmed by the olfactory assault.”
