So far each book has been a stand-alone with none of the characters overlapping. However, my next release will be the sequel to Devlin’s Ride. (less)

The critical part of this is the moment it happens take a note about it in your phone or whatever you have handy. The subconscious also has a way of forgetting these solutions when you aren’t watching it.(less)

On the other hand the story refused to die. I couldn’t get that opening scene out of my head. He’s hiding in a dark alleyway, rain falling all around, and listening to the woman singing Read more of this blog post »
