Alec Mackenzie’s Book on Pre-order
Alec Mackenzie’s Art of Seduction (Book 9 in the Mackenzies series) is now on pre-order! In Print and e-book! (Audio to come).
Amazon
iBooks
Nook
Paperback
Kobo and Google coming soon
To refresh your memory, Alec is the brother of Malcolm from The Stolen Mackenzie Bride. They are the 18th-century ancestors of Ian Mackenzie and his family. I love writing in the 18th century. When I was working on my MA in English literature, I extensively studied the period and its writings, and I’m enjoying the heck out of setting books in this era. Lots of things going on everywhere!
The story begins with Ian Mackenzie up in the attics in Kilmorgan Castle, rifling through boxes of old journals and papers. He is sorting through them to put together a history of the family.
When Beth comes to find him, he tells her the story of Alec Mackenzie, Ian’s great-great-something uncle and how he travels to London in search of his brother Will, who went missing after the family escapes to France after Culloden.
It’s a dangerous time for Alec to be skulking around London but he fears for Will and will do anything to keep the family together. Lady Celia is the daughter of the man who might have captured Will and control his fate–can Alec pry information out of her in time to save his brother?
This book will be out in both print and e-book, and there will be audio as well. :-) I hope you enjoy this installment of the Mackenzies! There will be more to come.
Note: I can only do pre-orders for the paperback on Amazon, but after release day, the print book will be available at B&N and every site that picks it up. This is also a worldwide release in all formats.

Updates, New Romance Novels, Pre-orders
I’ve updated the website to include information about several new books:
1) Alec Mackenzie’s Art of Seduction: Out November 14, 2017 This will go on pre-order at the end of August! I plan to put this (full-length) book out in e-book, print, and audio, with our favorite narrator, Angela! (Alec Mackenzie is the brother of Malcolm from The Stolen Mackenzie Bride.) See http://www.jenniferashley.com/jennifer-ashley-books/highland-pleasures/alec-mackenzie/ for more information.
2) Midnight Wolf: Out April 24, 2018. Pre-order links are up! In e-book, print, and audio! See http://www.jenniferashley.com/jennifer-ashley-books/shifters-unbound/midnight-wolf/ for those links and more about the story.
3) Tiger Striped: Out in May, 2018. This novella was to have been part of a multi-author boxed set this year, but the set was canceled, I’m sorry to report. The action of Tiger Striped takes place after Midnight Wolf, so it’s more logical to hold on to it and release it in May, after Midnight Wolf. I will have it up for pre-order once I get a cover, on iBooks and wherever I can set it up this far in advance. I will put this out in e-book and audio, and also print. See http://www.jenniferashley.com/jennifer-ashley-books/shifters-unbound/tiger-striped/ for more details on the story. It’s about Tiger!
The winning cover for Alec Mackenzie’s book. Thanks to all who gave me feedback!

What’s in the Works
Shifters
I’m working on a novella in the Shifters Unbound series, which will be (very) short and be available at first in a boxed set called Taming the Shifter, which will be out in October. That should go on pre-order sometime in July or August.
The tentative title of my story: Tiger Striped. (Which, as you might guess, will feature Tiger). I’ll bring it out on its own as soon as the agreed-upon time to keep it in the boxed set is over (probably February.)
I’m working on a couple more books in the Shifters series as well–The next published by Berkley will be Midnight Wolf, and feature Angus, the New Orleans wolf Shifter from Red Wolf. You’ll see the NOLA Shiftertown as well as catch up with other characters.
I’ll also have an announcement about the Shifters series once everything is hammered out at my publisher (No, I am NOT ending the series. Not yet. Too many stories left to tell and story arcs to finish).
I’m working on a couple of super secret projects–just thought I’d tease you with that :-) … More when I can talk about them.
Next on my plate besides the Shifter novella and novel: Stormwalker book, Mackenzie book, then Riding Hard: Ross. I’ll let you know when pre-orders are ready. I have to write, write, write first!!!
For the mystery lovers among us, there will be several mysteries out next year:
January: Death Below Stairs (Kat Holloway, Book 1; a full-length novel)
March: Murder in St. Giles (Captain Lacey Regency Mysteries, Book 13 [am I allowed to have a Book 13?])
May: Kat Holloway Mysteries, Book 2 (Title TBD)
Also might have another mystery out depending on how much time I have and whether or not my fingers fall off first …
Stay tuned for updates.
I’ll leave you with the pretty cover of Death Below Stairs:

Red Wolf came out on May 2 and hit the USA Today Bestseller list! I am thrilled! More Shifters are in the works, of course.

Next up–May 2– Red Wolf!! Another full-length novel in the Shifters Unbound series!
Red Wolf is about Dimitri, a sexy man who can change into a red wolf; and Jaycee, a leopard Shifter who takes no crap from anyone (they were introduced in White Tiger). These two have known each other forever, but can they transition from friends to mates without killing each other?
I loved writing this couple–Dimitri is hot, and Jaycee is feisty and fun.
In this book, we go back to the haunted house (introduced in Wild Things), and reconnect other characters, such as Ben / Gil (from Wild Wolf and Mate Bond), Zander and of course, Tiger. New Shifters are introduced, including Angus, who will have his story told in Midnight Wolf (the next Shifter novel).
