Where's the fourth Embraced book?
I have great news and not-so-great news. In the Not-so-great category: the publisher who published the first 3 Embraced books declined to go back to contract with me for the last two books.
The great news: I have found a new publisher, Kensington, who will publish books 4 & 5 of the Embraced series!! Since it's a new publishing house, they will have to change the name of the series, but it will be close to the same, probably called Embraced by Magic, and they will label the books 1 and 2, since they will be their first and second books. But for all real purposes, it will be Books 4 & 5, continuing the saga with Sorcha's book, titled How to Love Your Elf, and the last book, Brody and Maeve's story, which I am working on now and haven't titled yet.
And finally, in the Not-so-great category, I have a release date for book 4-- May 2020. I know that hurts. It hurts me, too. The book is finished, but we have a long wait. Why? Because when you move to a new publisher, all the slots in their schedule are already full for the next 18 months or so, and that means a new author is put at the end of the queue. Fortunately, once book 4 finally comes out, it will not be a long wait for the final book (Maeve's and Brody's) since I will already be put into their schedule.
And there you have it-- books 4 & 5 will happen, just not as soon as we would like. I am really sorry for all this-- it was something out of my control, but I've done the best I could since I was determined to finish the series for my readers who have Embraced it. Thank you so much for your patience and support of my work!

SO I MARRIED A SORCERER on sale tomorrow!!
Tomorrow, the Sorcerer blasts into our world. It's a shame Rupert isn't here in the Houston area, where he could use his wind power to get rid of this storm and blow the flood waters into the Gulf.
In case you didn't know, I live in the Houston area. So far, we are doing all right, but so many are not as fortunate. Tomorrow's Launch Party at Katy Budget Books has been postponed due to flooding. My books can't get through, but really, it's more important for food and medical supplies to get through right now. And it would be too dangerous for anyone to try to get to the store. I'll let you know when the party has been rescheduled.
If you ordered a signed book from Katy Budget Books, we will get to you as soon as we can. Meanwhile, SO I MARRIED A SORCERER still releases tomorrow and should be available elsewhere in the country.
Take care, and happy reading!!
