New release-The Aftermath
I started my newest book some time ago and kept putting it on the back burner. I was never sure if the subject matter was too dark, or too personal for readers. Finally, I went back to the beginning of the story and found my voice again.
The Aftermath is not a romance, it is not fantasy, it is at times a cold reality, a harsh view of our world. At other points it reminds us of the small things that give joy to each of us.
I have been surprised and pleased with the reviews it has received so far. If it makes you laugh, or cry, or think, then I have done my job.
I hope that you will read and enjoy the story for the story's sake.
Thank you,
R. A. Palmer

The trilogy is complete.
I started the Chronicles of Merlin in 2016 with Esther: Wizardess in Training. Now the final novella in the series has been released on Amazon in both Kindle and Paperback formats. While it is sad to finish the story of characters I have come to love, I will be on to a new adventure.
I hope you will enjoy Adwen's story and please leave a review. We writers love knowing if our work was enjoyed or even if we need to improve.
Thank you all so much.

The Merlin Chronicles Continue
I have been working on the next book in the Merlin Chronicles. We met Vivienne in Esther, but in this book we explore a bit of her history, and take her on a whole new adventure.
Here is a small snippet from her story.
The sound of the sea crashing against the rocks soothed Vivienne. Tamar was to return by the next moonrise. Cador had asked for his presence at counsel. She knew he would return, yet she still feared he would not. "Just because Merlin left you, does not mean Tamar will," a voice behind her said gently. "I know, yet to trust him forces me to give up something of myself." Vivienne said as she turned to greet Esther.
Vivienne slid over so that Esther could sit. Heavy with her second child, Esther still exhibited grace and calm. "It has been nearly five years Vivienne, surely by now you can trust that he would never willingly leave you?" Esther asked as she sat.
"I have had dreams of great trials coming," Vivienne said, trying to change the subject. Esther sighed and nodded. "I know. I too see things."
If you have not yet read Esther, it is recommended to read it before Vivienne. This series is totally different from anything else I write and hopefully will take you on a fantasy journey you will enjoy.

Nikolai has arrived
Nikolai
Recently I released Nikolai, the first book in my new series NAXON Group. It is full of action and passion.
Nikolai was Russian GRU, Anna was CIA. Circumstances tore them apart and danger brought them back together.
Anna gave up the only person she cared about to protect him. She worked hard to help and protect others, while trying to forge a life without him, until she was captured by Syrian forces.
Nikolai knew the moment he saw the picture of the agent MI6 wanted his crew to rescue that his life was about to change forever. Staring back at him was the eyes of the woman who haunted his every dream.
Nikolai throws caution to the wind when he takes his team of specialists into Syria to rescue Anna - will they survive? - is there a future for two people haunted by the destruction of their pasts?
Check out Nikolai today.
Available in all Amazon Markets in both kindle version and paperback.

Coming Soon!
NAXON Group
NAXON Group is a new series that I am working on. It will contain five books. Nikolai, Alexandre, Xavier, Oliver and Nasir. Each member of the group has a special skill, and a special reason for being part of this elite team of security specialist.
The first novel, Nikolai should be out in the summer of 2019.
Nikolai was a Russian GRU agent who escaped Russia with the help of his CIA lover, Anna. She walked out of his life to protect him, now it is his turn to save her.
She knows his darkest desires and was always able to fulfill them, but will they be able to find that passion again?
