MATING SEASON is now available on Pre-order everywhere, including Amazon: (pre-order links below the blurb)
Release Date: Wednesday, July 17th, 2024
Pop Quiz: You’re a woman alone in the forest… would you rather run into a man or a bear?
I’m lost out in the woods when I cross paths with a strange man. He offers to take me back to his campsite, feed me, get me warm, but every instinct in me screams NO!
He is an opportunistic predator, and I am his prey.
I run. He chases. And just before I’m traumatized for life, I hear a loud roar as a seven hundred pound Grizzly bear rips the man off me and mauls him to death.
So…. Team Bear?
If only it were so simple. This isn’t just any normal bear. He’s a bear shifter, and he’s convinced I’m his fated mate.
I appreciate the life saving and all, but I have goals and dreams, and I won’t allow fate to play matchmaker for me, no matter how otherwise appealing the shifter in question may be.

My Shopify Store is now open for the Annual Signed Book Sale
Annual Signed Book Sale Main store link: https://books-by-kitty.myshopify.com
(You can navigate all the different categories from the top of the page.)
It’s finally here, the annual signed book sale! I open my Shopify store once a year to sell signed books to my readers. I can’t afford to run the store year round (both in time and expenses), but I’m more than happy to have limited opportunities to buy where I can batch the work.
(By sale I don’t mean “discount”, I mean it’s “for sale”. Though there are options to buy full series on the collections page for a discount off buying all the books individually.)
I’ve got a LOT of brand new covers that are available for the first time in my store:
The New Comfort Food design (both the updated girl cover and the discreet cover)
My Dark Wedding Duet in both cover options
The last 3 books in Brian and Mina’s Holiday Hits

Do you feel overwhelmed?
It’s time for another quarter of HB90! If you don’t know what HB90 is, it’s a planning program. And I know that doesn’t sound super sexy. Like… ugh boring. But this program has literally changed my life. (Also, the experience of taking this course was far from boring.)
If you feel overwhelmed in your life with your to do list in your business or even just in your life in general you should at least check this out to see if it might be a good fit for you.
You don’t have to be a writer. You don’t even have to own a business. If you have a hard time managing your time and how much you put on your plate and how you move forward and progress in your life with your goals… if you feel like you’re just constantly spinning your wheels and don’t see yourself moving forward you need to at least check this out.
I signed up for HB90 last fall for the 3rd quarter and I’ve done 3 whole quarters of it now. (You only pay ONE time. After that you can redo the course and participate in/attend the live kickoff call for each new quarter. You also automatically get any new updates.)
I don’t do a lot of “affiliate” type stuff, in fact, this is the only online program/course I’m an affiliate for (and her other programs) because I’ve done them, and I gained a lot from them, and I believe in their value. So if you are feeling just crazy overwhelmed with your life/to do list/lack of forward trackable momentum on your goals, definitely check this out!
I think the price is very reasonable, especially compared to a lot of online courses out there. But if even this price is “too much” there are some very reasonable and very easily accessible payment plans available.
The kickoff call for this quarter is June 16th!
Check out all the details here: https://bit.ly/HB90_Info

He grips my upper arm and leads me out of the cell. When we get out into the main house, I realize the finality of my fate. Even phrases like ridiculous grandiose wealth do not fully capture this situation. There’s a level of resources where you know there’s basically no limit to a person’s power.
This guy has those kinds of resources. That kind of power. No one will ever find us. No one will ever free us. We’re at the mercy of this monster for as long as he lets us live. And I’m not sure if a short time or a long time is better or worse under the circumstances.
The door to our cell is hidden behind a giant painting. The hallway alone in this place is breathtaking. High vaulted ceilings. Chandeliers that each probably cost about the same as a normal-sized house in the suburbs. We pass by windows, and outside the windows I see endless rolling hills. It’s as though I’ve been transported to a whole other planet that only the three of us inhabit. Maybe it’s a private island. I don’t see any palm trees, but I really just have no idea at this point.
He has to have staff. A cleaning service. Something. There’s no way he manages this on his own. So have there been others here while we’ve been here, then? There must have been. If he isn’t worried about us screaming and getting found out, the cell must be soundproof.
I could ask myself why someone with this much money would even do something like this. But why not? If you obviously have no conscience, after you get bored with all conventional accumulation of power, surely something like this is next.
At the end of this hallway, there’s another door with a security panel. It’s not hidden like our cell. I wonder if people ask what’s behind this door. I’m sure others are curious, but I don’t want to know. I don’t want to go in there.
I struggle to get away from him, but his impossible grip only gets tighter. “Careful, now. Probably best not to irritate the psycho,” he says.
At least he knows he’s crazy. I’m not sure if that helps or only makes it worse.
Behind this new high-security steel door is a set of stairs that spiral down. The walls are white, and the stairs look like stairs in an office building. There are guide lights in the floor which offer the only illumination. The stairs seem to go down forever, and the further we go into this pit, the more claustrophobic I become.
It’s some kind of sex dungeon. There are whips and paddles and floggers and canes. Clamps of various types and sizes. A box full of sex toys and blindfolds. Bondage equipment is scattered around the room. There’s a large cage on one end of this endless underground space. And there’s a bed, built with the explicit understanding that someone should be bound to it.
A part of me wishes I didn’t know what all of this stuff was for. But I know. I’m crying again. It started before I even realized—traitorous tears making escape attempts down my cheeks.
I flinch when he wipes away a stray tear with his thumb. “Don’t cry yet, Pretty Toy. I haven’t even gotten started. Save your tears for the good part.”
This only makes me cry harder, and the sinister smirk that inches up his cheek only confirms this was the reaction he was hoping for.
“You’re here because you disobeyed me. You both disobeyed me.”
Is he talking about the fact that we didn’t immediately rush to fuck for his viewing pleasure when he first told us this was the price for food? Before I can ask this question, he continues.
“I told you, no names, Kate. But the first opportunity you got, the two of you huddled in your private shower and started whispering secrets. I may not have cameras in the bathroom, but I do have listening devices, one embedded in the shower in fact. Seven thought he could outsmart me. You have to be punished, Pretty Toy. I can’t have this defiance.”
“Master, please.” I want to say it was Seven’s idea, but my captor knows that already, and I can’t stand the idea of betraying Seven, so I don’t say anything more.
I jerk away when he strokes my hair.
“Don’t worry. He took a greater punishment to protect you, and I always keep my word. You can handle what I’m about to do. I won’t break your skin. I don’t want to break my Pretty Toy after all, now do I?”
A long slow breath pushes its way out of me as my hysteria calms the tiniest fraction. I know he could be lying. I know he’s evil. I know he’s going to kill us when he’s finished with his game, but I hold out hope that Seven really did take a harder punishment to give me a lighter one.

Comfort Food Teaser Snippet:
He let go of my wrists and went to the closet. I laid there, not daring to close my legs, trembling. He picked out another pair of designer jeans, and a black baby doll crop top and laid them on the bed, then he left me alone.
My hands shook as I put the clothes on. I didn’t bother with a bra or panties, I just wanted to be covered, and I thought he probably preferred me without underwear. I hated myself for taking that into consideration even for a moment.
I was thirsty, but he’d thought of that. I hadn’t noticed it when he’d carried me into the bedroom, but he’d brought me a large bowl of fruit: grapes, blueberries, strawberries, mandarin oranges, and pineapples. Sitting next to it on the side table was a bottle of water.
He was setting it up so he didn’t cause me pain; I caused it. I caused it by rebelling. All I had to do was give in, submit in mind and body and I would never be hurt again. He’d see to my every need and give me the best of everything. He’d be better in bed than most men who take women willingly. He said it with everything he did, every touch, every caress, every physical pleasure he bestowed upon me. Give it all to me. Give me your will.
And that was when I knew. I had to kill him.
