Paperback Writer!

[image error]Happy Sunday to you. I hope you’ve had a great week.

This was an exciting past week because Ravishing Rapunzel finally released and  I had a couple of sales going on. Those all ended this morning, and things are back to normal.

But one thing I did last week that I didn’t discuss much was ensure that I have paperback copies of all the ebooks in my fairy tale series. I went in and added paperback copies of Dream Trysts, Finding Bliss and Ravishing Rapunzel. Given the price differential and the ease of ebook reading, most people buy electronic copies of my books. However, for those who love paper, the option is there for all the fairy tales.

The short stories are too short to make paperbacks of the singles, but I’m going to work on the compilation paperback this week, and with luck, this time next week, I’ll have a post about it.

Rapunzel Available Today!

[image error]My newest passion-filled fairy tale, Ravishing Rapunzel, is available today on Amazon. The book is available as an ebook and a paperback (though I sell mostly ebooks). If you’re in Kindle Unlimited, you can read the ebook free. If you want to buy it, the ebook is just 99 cents today and tomorrow. I’ll go in and raise the price  to $2.99 Saturday night, but it likely won’t take effect until sometime Sunday.  (Changes have sometimes been very quick, at 4 hours, and other times, have taken almost 24 hours, so I can’t give you a time when the price will change).

Here’s the blurb for Ravishing Rapunzel:

Rapunzel is a sickly child, according to her mother. Forced by her mother to hide from the world, the only thing Rapunzel wants is connection to another human being.

Stuck in a life of the royal court, all Prince Bradyn wants is to meet someone real, someone who’s only goal isn’t to curry favor with his parents.

When Rapunzel gets a rare day out without her mother, she stumbles across Bradyn in the woods and the two pleasantly get to know each other. Unfortunately, shortly after Rapunzel’s mother spirits he away to a tower in the woods, a place she tells Rapunzel will keep her safe.

Bradyn is devastated when he realizes his friend is gone. He searches for her for years to no avail. One day, when hope is lost, he happens to spy a tower in a clearing, and sees an old woman call, “Rapunzel, Rapunzel let down your hair.” Now that Bradyn has found her again, he intends to do everything in his power to make Rapunzel his.

Check out this steamy retelling of the fairy tale classic. Getting to happily ever after is always sexy and fun in the Passion-Filled Fairy Tales series. You can purchase it on Amazon:

Amazon US * Amazon Canada * Amazon UK * Amazon Australia

Cinders & Ash 99 cents

[image error]Hope you’re having a great day, so far.  I just wanted to pop in with a quick note mentioning that Cinders & Ash is on sale for 99 cents today.  This is one of my favorite fairy tale stories and I’m super excited to be able to offer it on sale today and tomorrow.

I hope you’ll check it out while it’s on sale. I’m going to raise the price on it on Feb. 7, but to 2.99 and leave it there through Valentine’s Day. Next week, I’ll be doing a two-day sale on Dream Trysts, so FYI.  And remember that Ravishing Rapunzel is going to be 99 cents throughout it’s pre-order period, so grab it while its cheap.

Finding Bliss Available on Amazon, Too

[image error]Happy Wednesday to you.  I just wanted to let you know that I’ve uploaded Finding Bliss: A Dream Trysts Story to Amazon. The book costs $1.99 there, or you can still get it free by subscribing to the mailing list.

I had planned to leave it as a book available only to subscribers. Unfortunately, when I tried to get the next book in the series added  to my series page without adding Finding Bliss, it messed up my series page, which disappeared.  I sent in a request to Amazon to fix it last night, and just now, about five minutes ago, the series page was back. Woo hoo! Awesome customer service, Amazon!

Anyway, so if you just prefer to buy your stories and not join the mailing list, you can do that with Finding Bliss. If you’d like to get it free by joining the mailing list, you may. Just sign up here.

A quick note that I changed the cover of Finding Bliss. I made an adjustment to the picture, in case I wanted to be able to advertise it at any point in the future. The previous cover, while having the same models, was more suggestive. (I recently got rejected from some advertising due to the other picture, so, you live and learn.)

Anyway, as a last note, Ravishing Rapunzel is on pre-order. You can grab it for 99 cents through release day on Feb 17.  Sometime on the 18th or 19th, it will go up to full price at $2.99.

Almost at 40!

[image error]Happy Thursday to you. I hope your week is going well.

I don’t normally check each book page daily, and Amazon doesn’t send notifications when there are new reviews on a book so I don’t always see a new review immediately.

However, I popped in this morning and saw that the Princess, the Pea, and the Night of Passion was up to 39 reviews on Amazon. That’s just awesome! I love it when readers leave reviews, and the last ones were really positive.

Here’s a couple snippets from two of them:

“Passion love and a lesson in eavesdropping wound into a unique version, a very adult translation of a wonderful fairy tale.”

-Wendi

“An old classic? No, it’s a really great adult version.This short story is well written, sensual, humorous and the characters were well developed.”

-Birgit

If you haven’t checked out the book, go ahead and give it a try. It’s FREE on all retailers.

A busy December!

Hello there!

I realize it’s been a while since I’ve done a blog post, so I apologize for my absence. I’ve been plugging away on writing, trying to get way more done than I have in the past. I’m still working on Rapunzel, which I had to take a break from earlier. I think I’ll finish that tale by the end of December, for a January publication date.

I’ve been participating in a a few InstaFreebie giveaways. I’ve been making sure I email my mailing list because that’s a must. If you want to get in on all the news, be sure to join my mailing list. Unfortunately, I’ve been bad about posting to the blog, so I’m going to get better about that.

I thought I’d mention a promo I was in earlier this month.  It’s a way for people to get free books by joining an author’s mailing list.  While the promo officially ran through Dec. 12th, many of the authors still have their books available. Check out these fun romance stocking stuffers. They’re all free via Instafreebie and a great gift for yourself, so you can relax and chill out in these final hectic days as you try to finish your holiday shopping.

I’ll be participating in another giveaway after Christmas, so I’ll be sure to post on the blog, too, as I won’t be sending to the newsletter until January.

Until next time, have a great one.

-May your love remain in bloom.
