SHATTERED – Available 10/17/15

Jax Fontaine is mad, bad, and very, very dangerous to know.

 

And his story is coming–on 10/27/15! SHATTERED will release in less than a week.  Are you ready? (I am!!)

 

She’s the daughter of a serial killer. A woman determined to right the wrongs of the past.

He’s the suspected boss of the New Orleans underworld. A criminal, not some white knight.

They should implode when they meet. They don’t.

It’s the rest of the world that shatters apart.

BITE THE DUST – Available now for $2.99

It’s book release day! BITE THE DUST is now available at your favorite ebook retailer.

Blurb:

Vampires. Werewolves. Beasts that hunt in the night. When New Orleans Detective Jane Hart investigates her first official homicide case, she never expects to have her world ripped apart. But the murder she’s investigating is part of a deadly war between vampires and werewolves…and now Jane is caught in that eternal battle. A battle that can’t end well.

Werewolf Aidan Locke has been running New Orleans for years. It’s his job to keep the vamps out of the city. But when a Master Vampire comes to town, determined to unleash hell, Aidan knows it’s time to fight with all the fury of his pack. Beast versus vamp, until the last breath. Then he meets Jane…

One look, one taste, and Aidan knows that Jane is far more than she seems. Far more than she even knows herself to be. She’s important in the paranormal war, not a pawn to be used, but a queen to be won. And if he can’t keep her at his side, if he can’t stop the darkness from descending on the town…then Jane Hart will become not just a fierce cop, not some guardian, but something deadlier. Darker. Aidan will fight heaven and hell to change her fate. To change their fate because he is more than just a predator.

And Jane is more than prey. Far more.

The world is changing—for the humans and the monsters. Hot, sexy, and intense, BITE THE DUST is the first novel in New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden’s dark new “Blood and Moonlight” series.

I had an insanely fun time writing this book–and I sure hope readers enjoy Jane & Aidan!  BITE THE DUST contains 73,000 words, and it is a complete stand-alone novel.  I do plan to release another book in this series soon–BETTER OFF UNDEAD will be out in early 2016.  BETTER OFF UNDEAD will also follow Jane & Aidan as they continue their undead/paranormal adventures in New Orleans.

FEMME FATALE – Excerpt

It’s just a few days until the 9/29/15 release of DARK SECRETS!  My contribution to the anthology is a sexy paranormal romance, FEMME FATALE.

I wanted to share a quick excerpt of the story with you:

***

“A monster is hunting here, huh? What is he? A boogeyman?” Mick asked.

She shook her head. Her lips thinned in what sure looked like annoyance.

“A werewolf?” he pressed.

Her gaze hardened. “No.”

“Ah, right—the puncture wounds and the whole no blood thing.” Mick nodded. “I get it. Vampire, right? I’ve got a vampire loose in Chicago, killing at will.” He laughed.

She didn’t laugh. “That’s exactly what you’ve got.”

Pity stirred within him. “Is there someone you want me to call for you? Someone who might be looking for you?” A nurse. A doctor. A shrink?

“The killer is looking for me, but you and I are going to find him before it’s too late.”

His hand lifted and his fingers wrapped around her wrist. “You’re confused. I can’t help you.”

“I’m not confused.” She stared up at him. “I think you are.”

His index finger was stroking along her inner wrist. A movement that he totally hadn’t meant to make. “How about I go get you a cab?”

She shook her head. “Monsters are real. I know that with utter certainty.”

“Oh, really?” He wasn’t in the mood to humor her, but he was trying, somewhat. It had been a long day and his knee was aching like a bitch. “And how do you know that?”

She smiled at him—a full smile that showed off her white teeth. Incredibly sharp teeth. Her upper canine teeth—they were long and fang-like.

Screw being fang-like…they were fangs.

“I know,” she told him quietly, “because I am a monster. A vampire, to be exact.”

Bound Paranormal Books – Kindle Unlimited

I’ve been receiving requests from readers to put some of my older titles up in Kindle Unlimited, so I wanted to let you know that 4 of my “Bound” paranormal romances are now available in KU (this is for a limited time). So if you haven’t read these Bound titles, now is a good time to grab them.

All of the “Bound” books feature fierce werewolf heroes and strong vamp heroines–and each tale shows my take on a particular fairy tale (vamp & werewolf style).

BOUND IN DARKNESS is my take on Snow White…only the hunter hired to kill the beauty falls for her.

BOUND IN SIN is my vampire/werewolf spin on Cinderella.

BOUND BY THE NIGHT was inspired by Sleeping Beauty (with a bit of Wicked Queen fun thrown into the mix–I’ve always been a Wicked Queen fan).

BOUND IN DEATH…ah, for this one, Rapunzel was the inspiration (not the long hair part, but lots more dark times).
