Here's a teaser from the fantasy novel Emerald Fire. Don't forget, the ebook is free for Kindle until 6-3-19.

They waited for a week for the girl to make an appearance. It came as Sandel carried the milk back to Derah to churn for butter. He turned at the sound of footsteps on the path. There she stood, painfully thin with impossibly large emerald eyes. “Can I please have milk?”
“Of course, you can, lass. Come with me to the cottage where it’s warm.” She shook her head vigorously and backed away from where he stood. “Tell you what, Derah and I will leave milk each day in a bottle with a cork stopper. Would that be all right?”
“You better not trick me,” came the reply. She put more distance between them. “Tricks are not nice.”
“I promise never to trick you, Loriann. That was your name, wasn’t it?” he reassured.

Here's another Emerald Fire teaser. Enjoy!

Kaegan found that he was drowning in the depths of her eyes. “You could share the bed with me. I promise to behave like a gentleman.”
“No, the floor is fine,” she replied. Loriann placed the heavy pack by the fireplace. She took a seat on the floor and leaned against the wall. The cloak wrapped tightly about her body would ward off the night chill.
He stoked the fire, squatting next to her as he fed one small piece of wood after another to the flickering flame. Taking a chance, he touched her arm, “You can sleep in the bed with me, honest I won’t bite.” The cold steel of the dagger’s edge was at his throat before the glimmer of light on steel could register in his mind.
The blade pressed harder. “If you touch me again, I’ll carve your eyes out of your head and leave you for the crows.”

“You are not sure? Perhaps I should put one of the city’s whores in charge of the guard! At least the whores seem to know more about the guard than their grand meister!”

Remember Emerald Fire is free for Kindle until 6/3/19. It made it to #33 in its category yesterday. Help an Indie out and download the FREE book. See you next time! Emerald Fire

I want to thank everyone who has taken time to read Emerald Fire. I also wanted to thank those of you who post reviews from the deepest part of my heart. It means so much to see that your work is enjoyed. Reviews help Indie authors out because we have no one to help us get our name out there. It is us against the big guys, so to speak.

Now with the mushy stuff out of the way, let me move on to part two of this post. Emerald Fire was a dream. It demanded to be written. Now that it is out there I feel the need to revisit the Olde World. There was so much of the world that was never touched on in Emerald Fire. I am thinking about a companion book set in the Olde World but with completely different characters. When I think of this, I am inspired. I hope you will look forward to Emerald Fire's companion book as I begin the planning process.

Thank you for reading my books. And have a great day!

Emerald Fire

I posted yesterday about planning another book in the Emerald Fire series. I have plans to bring back favorite characters from the first Emerald Fire book.

Who would you, the readers, want to make an appearance? Comment here with names. I definitely will see those names and write them into the book.

Thank you all for following and reading!!

Emerald Fire

I wanted to share something with my goodreads fans. Work on book two of the Emerald Fire series is in progress. Yes! In progress! So here is a teaser of what is to come.

Rys Graeme and his family are taken by slavers to the north. They are auctioned off and separated. Rys tries to escape and is thrown into the dungeon after Grand Meister Willem Jarin gives him twenty lashes. The war begins. Rys escapes as the city collapses and burns. He vows to find his family and free others from enslavement.

Then...More in my next blog post :)
