Six Sentence Sunday: Nothing but Ash
Owen flinched at the grim set of Erin's jaw. What thoughts had her looking that pissed off? He sure as hell didn't want to know, but could guess without much trouble.
Sienna had gone too far this time. Not only did he fear the nightmares running through his daughter's head, now that she'd stolen a gun and made it rather clear she intended to use it on the man he considered his best friend…
This Sunday my six are from Nothing but Ash. Now available at
BLURB:
Owen's life is in shambles. His wife is missing and presumed dead. His daughter is running wild and considered the worst criminal in Midnight Ridge. The sheriff, his former girlfriend, expects him to get his act together and "find his balls". It couldn't get any worse. Until his wife's ghost shows up, determined to lead them to her killer, a wolf hiding among the sheep, picking them off one bad seed at a time...

Six Sentence Sunday: Nothing but Ash
The pop of a gunshot and a short scream sounded, but not from Erin or even the house. No, both came from around the hill, down the path at the workshop.
Where he takes them.
Erin was yelling at him from inside the Jeep. Something Like, "Don't go—" But he had to go. He had to go after them. Had to save Sienna.

Six Sentence Sunday: Nothing but Ash
Watching Erin walk away was harder than Owen expected. With every step came the urge to call her back, but no. Now wasn't the time. So he kept his mouth shut and clenched his hands to keep from reaching for her.
The dark swallowed her up in no time. Still he waited at the top of his stairs for her to cross under the first street light and then back into the darkness.

WICKED ANGELby Evie Balos
Genre: erotica, paranormal.
Part of the Blue Line at Cobblestone Press. Length: Short Features a muscle-ripped angel warrior. ;-)
Blurb:
He's going to ruin her for the rest of mankind... Lana is a gifted healer. Her job is to treat angels who have been hurt by rogue Ahkran. Although awed by the winged race, only one angel unsettles her in ways too deliciously wicked for her own good. Julien. Muscle-ripped and fearsome, the chief enforcer is hardly angelic...could be her undoing if she succumbs to the unexpected interest he's taken in her. Called to treat his injury one night, Lana is determined to control her desire for him, do her job and leave. His proposition, however, stops her in her tracks.
Julien normally doesn't bed humans, yet the lovely healer tempts him beyond control. Surely, three nights with her in his bed are enough to quench his desire...

Six Sentence Sunday: Nothing but Ash
"Your daughter is locked up in my jail again." Sheriff Erin Walker hated these calls with a passion. In a town of under two hundred with the people scattered spaciously around the forested base of Midnight Ridge, crime was rare. This was the third time this week she'd hauled Sienna Sinclair in and put her teenaged ass behind bars.
"Again? What has she done this time?" Owen Sinclair sounded tired, beaten down
by the reality of raising a troubled kid alone.

First Kiss Friday: Nothing but Ash
"If you mean having a fling with my best friend while I was out of town … I forgive you and I know exactly what you should say." She leaned forward until their lips were a breath apart.
"What should I say?"
She brought them together, kissing him slowly at first, but then deepening the kiss until their mouths became a tangle of heat and need. Closer and closer. On and on. She drank him down, owning him soul deep, letting the last fifteen years fall away until they were teenagers again exploring each other for the first time. Remembering what felt right and how the need to connect consumed them both.
He dragged her onto his lap, holding her close to him in an uncompromising grip.
Slowly she pulled back, by increments. Joy flooded through her. He still loved her.

Check out the pretty OBAB cover!
Cover art is just like getting a surprise gift. No matter whether the wrapping is fancy or plain old newspaper, you still hold your breath and tear it open, hoping...
Yay! It's fantastic!! And not socks. lol.
Of Blood and Blessings is being released with Liquid Silver Books on April 9, 2012. Since this once one of my very first books and has been through a few rough revisions, I'm very excited to seeing it finally find a new place to be.
Some might remember that this book was originally released with Changeling Press. To be clear I still love them plenty. :) The reason it was pulled and is being released is for two reasons - 1. I wanted to clean this book up some. Since it was written so long ago, I really wanted to improve it using what I've learned in all the recent years. and 2. The third and final book in this trilogy was finally finished and I wanted to release all three books from the same publisher. Since book 2 was with Cobblestone Press, I decided it would be fairest to pull both released books, rework them and offer the three together to a third publisher. I'm very happy I did and can't wait to see them all out there once more.
You can see more about the Blood Royals Trilogy on my website.

Moore Money? Yahoo!
Hi everyone. Just thought I'd share a post I recently got from my writing buddy, Deb Moore. So here ya go...
Hey, girl! Guess what I've been up to?
My new book, The Business of Writing, went live on Amazon! Unlike other finance and business books out there, this one is geared specifically to writers and the challenges we face.
I've been doing bookkeeping and creative writing for over twenty-five years, and I was finally able to combine the numbers side and creative side of my brain to produce a book every writer will find useful.
My book will show how to save time and money all year long as well as during tax season. This way, writers can focus on writing instead of stressing over the financial side of the business.
In the book, I've included information on managing the daily bill and receipt piles with a tool called the Money Journal. There are tips and tricks on tracking all financial matters along the way quickly and easily—and in a way that will save them time and money at tax time. The book covers how the structure of our businesses is so important and can make a huge difference come tax time. Also, the book has an exhaustive list of expenses specific to writers—some that writers are probably already tracking, and many they may not be.
There is a lot more information in the book, and I included loads of links to forms I designed, spreadsheets writers would find helpful, and IRS publications every writer should know about.
I know you get financial questions all the time. Here's the link to the Amazon page. There's more information about everything the book contains there. http://www.amazon.com/The-Business-of-Writing-ebook/dp/B007A2741Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329595829&sr=8-1
