What if the Beyond Rommance demons... are the good guys?

 



View in browser 



Beyond Romance loves demons!

Everyone has a different image when they think about the concept of demons. I've always enjoyed reading paranormal stories that take expectations and twist them in an original way. So... when I decided to include demons in my universe, it was obvious that they would have to be a little bit different from the usual.

Don't misunderstand. Tascryn demons are a breed apart. They work for "the creator" which is their image of God. They don't do evil. Instead, they are an honorable race dedicated to protecting mortal souls and guiding each of them through transitions from one life to the next. What I'm saying is... they are the good guys.

Tascryn demons come in five power levels. Akryn demons are the most common and they use dreams to guide mortals and prepare them for their destinies. Synn demons are the fun ones who use sex and seduction to seduce mortals into accepting death. The third level are the Cyvampis demons. They feed on blood and drain away the will of more resistant mortals. The most powerful of the regular demons are the Daelyn, death demons, who are responsible for transitioning non-mortal beings and at times even deities. The strongest of all are the Royal demons who lead them all.

If you want to learn more about the Tascryn Demons start with the Blood Royal trilogy.






Dark Paranormal Romance
Blood Royals

Three generations of royal demons driven forward by destiny and desire. Grant, his mother Sadrina and her father, Sadaen all get their chance to find real love, sometimes in the most unexpected places.

Read all three stories in this collection. Blood and Blessings, Blood Reign, Blood Justice.

The Anom'tan Demons... These demons have the responsibility of transitioning mortal souls during daylight hours. The include the three lowest levels of demons and often live in the mortal world in small units, to offer each other support.











Just like the Tascryn Demons work hard to keep the world balanced and stable, there are others that do the opposite called Abaddon demons. Their job is to keep the world from becoming stagnant. They use their special callings to unsettle the mortal world. Although this at first does seem to result in evil acts, they are only doing what they feel is needed in order to advance civilization.




Her wildest dreams… have come to life!

Lani's calm life takes a hot turn when she falls through a portal to hell and lands in the lap of the oh-so-sexy Prince of Pestilence.

Chances Serial Story #1
A Snowball's Chance

Josh Franklin has been a bad boy. But before he freezes to death
in an avalanche, he’s offered one last chance to turn his life around.
But this Last Chance Demon doesn’t give away his get-out-of-hell cards or free. To earn it, Josh will have to find a way to satisfy a fire demon’s insatiable lust. Will the bet save his soul or leaving him
aching for an impossible future?


Read More






I guess that for me demons deserve a different kind of identity. If they are not evil and just a little different, aren't they just like us? Don't they deserve love, too?

When it comes to my demon stories, you can expect them to be emotional and super sexy. These demons work hard and play hard. They often don't concern themselves too much with sexual orientation. Most of them feel pretty happy if they find a soul mate regardless of gender. If they have a chance for love they get serious and fight for that happiness with everything they have. 

Sort of a glimpse into how I see the world. Everyone deserves love in whatever form it takes. Well, that's just how I see it.  If you want to give them a shot. Look up my stories and try them out. 

Read what you love.

Beyond Romance

January 20, 2025

Hello all my peeps.

Winter drags on and that gives hubby and I a bit more time curled up on the sofa binging a variety of movies or tv series. I think he was trying to offer a small sacrifice for my birthday month and suggested we watch Anne Rice's Interview with a Vampire, the series. It's been years since I read those, but I was and continue to be a fan. With the topic being vampires it quickly evolved to discussing the blessings and challenges of immortality.

Life and death are hard enough for us mere humans to lead to some amounts of longing for eternal youth. I certainly have a preference for it considering the longevity of my many book characters. I try not to let the difficulties devolve to deep into angst but it certainly is a reality for non-humans living longer lives. When immortals mingle with mortals, the end result is pain and suffering. It's undeniable, but doesn't have to overshadow the whole relationship.

Some of my heroes find love and in time lose it. Some are strong enough to love again, and some not. How is that any different from any other relationship? One aspect of my connected stories is the opportunity to see more than a glimpse of life. Grant and Amelia, for instance. Amelia chooses to remain human and thus does eventually die of old age. Does that make Grant regret falling for her? How does he overcome the grief? How does he move on and find new love?

Not all my characters are able to move on. Such as Jerdin or Sgrios. Those two continue to break my heart. But someday they too will heal  enough to find joy in life once more.

Who in my stories have you felt your heart twist for? Who should I reach out my pen and try to save a little sooner? Shoot me a note at lshannon@hotmail.com with your thoughts.

Read more and enjoy the ride even if you know it won't last forever.

Little bit of news that might or might not matter to my peeps... I've started to use universal links for my amazon books. It's going to take some time to roll out but I'm hoping universal links will make it just a bit easier on my international peeps. As far as I can tell it shouldn't change the experience for anyone in the US.

How about a quick check in on how you feel about universal links?












This and That Results

Last week, I asked if my peeps preferred Shifters or Demons and here is what the voting resulted in...

Shifters: 21/37 or ~ 56%

Demons: 16/37 or ~ 43%

I really enjoyed seeing the voting on this. It doesn't mean I'll intentionally write more shifters and ignore my demons, but I will keep the results in mind. And I plan to have plenty more of the This or That segment.  Thank you to everyone who voted. :) 








Featured this Week

Between Deven and the Deep Blue Sea


About the Book

Deven Ochoa

To Deven, Division Eight is more than a job. It’s his family, his
life and his sense of justice. He’d willingly follow his boss into the
pits of hell. That’s just the kind of tight they are. But when did
there need to be more than the two of them? Despite his objections,
Quinn hires a sexy young tech wiz who seems more magical than the Wi-Fi. And maybe more dangerous than their latest vampire hunt.

Tessa DeAngelo

She wasn’t looking for a job when she landed within the enigmatic agency. But Quinn offered her more than a paycheck. He offered her the chance to have a real family, one that didn’t pretend to not notice her strangeness. Suddenly her life is better than ever except for one little problem. She has the hots for Quinn’s other stray. More than just attraction, Deven makes her dream of a lasting kind of love.  But are these dreams just wishful thinking or her physic powers? The temptation is too much to resist. She’s ready to lay her claim on Deven and start making those dreams into reality.

But what time is there for romance when an ancient vampire slaughtering its way across the southwest. And it is the job of Division Eight agency to stop that kind of killer. The only question is if this paranormal duo will be stronger together, strong enough to survive.


Deven and Tessa's story is the second book in a completed paranormal romance trilogy. If you love strong women, reserved men and overwhelming chemistry, you will love their romance. Look forward to a "fake wedding", coworkers to lovers, questionable origins, fated mates (sort of), and found family.

Trigger warnings: dubious consent, drug use, aphrodisiac, violence, child abuse and neglect. (Despite this, it's still fairly wholesome and depicts a strong supportive family.)










Since this week's topic was immortality... Who is immortal in the Beyond Romance Universe?

Demons?  Vampires? Angels?  Dragon shifters? Wolf Shifters?

Each one has its own set of rules. Demons, vampires  and angels do not age naturally like mortals. Shifters live longer lives but it is their magic that allows them to slow down natural aging. The Valafrn wolf shifters age to adulthood and then do not significantly age until their magic begins to break down at around 1000 years. Mated Valafrn can live even longer because of their shared magic.

Dragon shifters like Amethyst who are bound to humans are able to slow how their bonded human ages, but they cannot stop the aging completely. And the bond between them will only be broken when one of them (usually the human) dies.

Beyond Romance

January 13, 2025

Hello all my peeps.

The cold snap continues with no break here on the farm. Although the freezing temps do add a bit more work to the animal care, it also keeps me inside more and at the computer. This week I binged a bit of some favorite anime shows on Crunchyroll. Some of my favorites include "An Archdemon's Dilemma: How to love your elf bride", "Tadaima, Okaeri", "Solo Leveling", and "Heaven Official's Blessing." If you're an anime fan, you might recognize some of those titles. Mostly fantasy romance, boylove and some battle types.

Something about watching and reading romance warms me up with the heart pounding moments.

Read more and stay hot.

About the book:

Zeven Ochoa
It’s always been me alone, fighting for my right to even exist. Until the day I found Harley lost in the desert and she became my light in the darkness. She taught me how to hope for something better. And then the assholes of my werewolf clan slaughtered her family and drove her into hiding.

Ten years later, I’m free of my degenerate clan and still searching for Harley. She’s my first and only love, my mate, and my everything. To survive on the fringe of the human world and have enough cash to continue my search, I do the one thing I’m good at; I kill for people willing to pay for the wet work. Every day is the same. A new target, another death and a bigger bag of money, until the folder on my lap reveals her picture as the next target.

Then everything changes. The contract says Harley has to die to prevent her from exposing the existence of werewolves to the world. After all she’s been through, I can’t blame her for hating my kind. I also can’t kill her or let her escape me ever again.

Harley Lex
A glorified teenage fling in the desert destroyed everything I held dear and left me alone and on the run for my life. Sure, those sweet stolen moments haunt my dreams, but my days are full of chasing something bigger. While changing my looks and my name, I continue to fight to make something of my future. It’s been a long road, but I’m most of the way through my internship. Soon, I’ll be a fully licensed doctor.

With my quiet dreams almost within my grasp, it’s all torn away in the blink of an eye when I accidentally walk into a werewolf dive full of the violent monsters. Just like that, I’m back on the most wanted list and on run again.

Running for my life is the only play that makes sense. It’s not like I’m strong enough to fight back. My only choice is to give up everything I’ve built for myself and start over somewhere else.

So why do I still dream of quiet nights in the desert? Why do I still long for the feel of Zeven holding me in his arms? What will I do when he comes to kill me?


Reviews

Zeven doesn't have many reviews yet but does have 12 FIVE STAR ratings. I really had fun writing their story and can't wait to see what readers think.

reads.emma on Instagram had this to say:

"Zeven Ways to Kill Your Lover" is more than just a paranormal romance; it is a story of redemption, the enduring power of love, and the possibility of second chances. It is a must-read for fans of the genre looking for a story that delivers heart-pounding action, complex characters, and a deeply satisfying love story.


Meet-Cute Monday (or in their case - reunite inferno)

At the bottom of her closet, she found the black bag. The damn thing would finally come in handy after sitting ignored for nearly five years. She jerked it free. How many times had she settled somewhere new and carefully repacked her escape bag, just to feel safe? Now she felt damn lucky for the paranoia.

The two thousand in the bag would get her out of town and she’d worry about the rest later. With that bag added she didn’t need anything else. All that mattered now was staying alive. That meant getting on the road immediately. She carried both bags in one hand and opened the door with the other–

–and was slammed back into the wall with a crash.

Sunshine outlined a huge man, combining dark shadow and blinding light. Her heart slammed once before she was heaved off her feet, pinned to the wall and confronted by black wrap-around sunglasses which reflected her own terrified face.

She clawed at the thick arms and kicked against his body. But the man’s weight crushed her to the wall.

The pressure changed, loosened. His honey brown skin came back into focus.

“Oh, fuck.” The voice was familiar, from a past she’d left behind. He slammed the door and threw the wrap-arounds across the room with a vicious snarl of fury.

She met the man’s cold, pale gaze. Dear God, how did he find me? Her racing heart skipped a beat. Was it terror or something else? Was it really him? Really Zeven?

He buried his face in her neck and nuzzled her skin as if he could draw her scent into him. He was a wolf after all, and it felt every bit the animal reaction. He pulled back and met her gaze for half a second before claiming her mouth in a deep wild kiss. As if they hadn’t been apart for ten years. As if this was the only thing he wanted in life. As if they were still back on the sand under the stars. But his passion was different, so much darker and deeper than before, demanding a response from her.

In that moment her fears faded and all that mattered was where they connected. His hands pinned her still to the wall. His tongue and lips stole her ability to think. Her whole world shrank down to just the two of them. Nothing else mattered.

She wasn’t the same as when they’d met. She bit his lip and then kissed him back, matching his passion, pouring her stress and emotion into the connection. She’d tried so hard to forget, to ignore that desire that she’d discovered in his arms. For just this one moment she’d cling to him and accept every bit of it, filling up that vast ache that had kept her alone and so very lonely all this time.

Then Zeven broke the spell and ripped away from her lips. “Harley…. Just what the fuck were you thinking?” His body was shaking as he jerked back away from her.

That brought Harley back to the moment, back to the stupidity which giving into this dangerous animal attraction would be. “Shit. I need to get out of here.” She struggled, jerking in his grasp. Zeven showing up took her terrifying day straight into a deeper level of hell. Now it wasn’t just the ones behind the threatening note. She’d have to escape Zeven and his homicidal family too.


Six Sentence Sunday

It had been one hell of a long day, starting off with two almost perfectly timed emergency deliveries, followed by a misleadingly light couple of hours.

Then at the end of their shift, the bus accident victims had arrived…

Harley sank onto the bench in front of the row of lockers. It was just after midnight. After finishing a shift and a half, she’d showered and changed, and was so damn tired she could barely sit upright. Despite the exhaustion, she was still wired with frustration over the child they hadn’t been able to save.



Go get your Zeven!

Beyond Romance

January 6, 2025

Hello all my peeps.

It's been a bit dark here on the farm and our home. The loss of my friend hit very hard last week and ever since it just seems like the start of 2025 has been a little rough. Super-hubby has been down with a cold this week and dealing with winter temps and the farm animals has aggravated my bad back. Not that the birdies care. Well, maybe the turkeys do. They are the sweet ones. And the peas all look at me like some kind of strange monster all bundled up in layers and staggering around with buckets of water...

Never mind all the doom and gloom. This too shall pass. It will be spring in no time and then the bustle of the busy farm will make me forget the months of freezing cold.

About the coming year and what to expect from Beyond Romance books... I'm hoping to slow down just a little this year. The past few years have been a whirlwind of releases that have left me spinning. Don't get me wrong, I love what I do. And being realistic, I'll probably end up just as ambitious as in past years. At least on paper, my current plans look a bit more restrained. First will be to complete the Amethyst trilogy. And later in the year I plan to release the next three Eagle Clan novels.

I'm sure I'll eventually give in to my ADHD and throw some more shorter works into the schedule. I have a list of novellas that are already drafted and just need one tweak or another, so you can bet, those will get released at some point.

Another point of note: This week's newsletter will be the first offering of an author spotlight section. I don't know yet if this will be a weekly event or just a now and then surprise. Make sure you check it out below.

That's enough from me. Hope you all have a wonderful week.

Read more and snuggle on the couch.

Beyond Romance

December 30, 2024

Hello all my peeps.

It's been a hard couple days, filled with sadness and loss. A very dear friend of mine passed on on Christmas Day. I've been a mess trying to process grief while still keeping up with all the responsibilities of the holidays.

Dealing with loss always drives home the point of how very fragile our day to day happiness really is. Maybe that is why I turn my gaze to my fantasy world were wolves, demons and dragons rarely have to deal with old age or illness. It may not be real, but it continues to be my happy place.

Sorry for the short note today. I promise to talk your ear off next week.

Beyond Romance

December 9, 2024

Hello all my peeps.

Winter is marching in all cool like Fonzie. But the farm keeps on rolling, the same as usual, just with more water carrying. My back is not loving it but the critters are all doing well.

A few days ago the newest Dragon Bound story released.I'm super excited about this trilogy. Unlike most of my work, Amethyst is in first person. Another difference is the focus of the story is more like urban fantasy than my usual paranormal romance. But you know I love my happy endings. For the complete HEA you'll have to ride it through three short novels. With that in mind I won't be doing any particular promotions for the release or adding the series to KU until all three are available.

Season of giving continues with even more free books! Follow me on facebook for daily updates and direct links to download. https://www.facebook.com/PNRwithBite

Read more and give more love.

~ Shannon

'Tis the season... For DRAGONS! (Beyond Romance 12/2/24)

December 2, 2024

Hello all my peeps.

It's pretty cold here in Western PA. Down to twenty degrees and that means I've been busy getting all the winter supplies set up for the critters. 

I'm a bit of a holiday ho-ho. I love Christmas. Love the spirit of it, the highs, the stress, the heartfelt hugs, and hard goodbyes. Yep, it might not all be positives, but I love them all anyhow. For some reason I just feel closer to everyone and that is a feeling that I really cherish.

Most of all, I believe in spoiling everyone I care about. Santa isn't some sexy dude off in the cold that only shows up once a year. If I want Santa to be real, I'll step up and be him for everyone I can. So I buy presents and hide them away all year long and give far more than I ever receive. And in this way I spoil myself too.

So while in the spirit of whatever holiday you celebrate, don't forget to spoil yourself a bit too. Steal a day with a book, plan that vacation, buy the chocolate.  Give to everyone else, but keep a little bit back for yourself too.

And a little hello to all the new subscribers (over 400 in the last 3 weeks!) Welcome! Pull up a beanbag and make yourself comfy.


Read more and don't forget to spoil yourself.

~ Shannon
