Merry Christmas and the Tuesday tease~!


Merry Christmas! I hope Santa brings it all! Unless of course you've been naughty, then I hope he leaves a shirtless cover model in your oversized stocking to teach you a lesson or two. ;) 

ENTROPY releases this Friday! Yes! There's an end at last to Laken's story. I hope you enjoyed the stay the Ephemeral Academy. Laken, Cooper, and Wesley all wish you a Merry Christmas and hope you love the final ride. I had a blast with Entropy and I hope you will, too!



 On to the teasers!

ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3)

Prologue (Laken's POV)



   There is a shift in your mental state when death comes to knock you off balance—you become the odd pendulum, swinging too quickly—the clock on the wall with hands spinning out of control—the haunted door opening and shutting at an alarming pace for no one in particular.   It is a dimension within a dimension, of sight and sound, with no eyes and no ears. You are the world’s. They can see you, touch you, feel you. You are so real in their fantasy it is almost unfair. But there is balance. After all, this is an orderly universe, created by an orderly God, who gives consideration to His every form of entropy.   For so long, I thought I was lost, meandering, a still life on some incomprehensible canvas, swimming in the torrential river of someone else’s dream. Shattered, I watched as He put together the pieces, dislodged the bone of grief that dammed up the words I was choking on. The consolation came right on time but not before I walked through the valley of the shadow of death.



SUGAR KISSES (3:AM Kisses Book 3)
Roxy and Cole’s story. (Cole’s POV at the apartment while Roxy bakes in the kitchen.)
Roxy’s hair is spun in a knot with a wooden spoon driven through the beautiful mess. Her face is coated with powder. The entire kitchen looks as if a flour bomb went off, but her eyes glow like two hazel beacons warning me not to get too close or me and my dick will run aground faster than we did before.I step in close behind her and lean in with my cheek less than a breath from hers. The warmth from her skin radiates over mine, and it takes a lot more effort than my testosterone-laden brain can muster not to steal another kiss off those pillow soft lips. I swipe my finger through the batter and jam it in my mouth, moaning hard into her ear. Roxy takes a breath, expanding her back over my chest. I go with it and tuck my lips into her vanilla scented neck.She flicks the fork in her hand and a glob of batter blinds me.“Crap.” “I never miss.” She glances down at my crotch. “Don’t you forget it.”

CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER *New AdultNew Adult  17+
(Gage’s POV, Gage with Wesley)
“I’m pretty sure I’m going to kick your ass.”His chest bucks with a silent laugh. “Wouldn’t that be a little like kicking your own ass?”“No, it’ll be like kicking your ass, and I’ll make sure you feel it.”“Try it but know I’ll fight back. By the way, I’m not into bruising—I’m into disfiguring. I’d like nothing more than inverting your baby blues—pulling your vocal cords out through your nose—so think twice before you threaten me.” He pulls me in by the shirt until we’re nose to nose. “Don’t you ever forget who I am and what I can do.” He shoves me into the wall before turning away. I don’t waste a moment before kicking his feet out from under him.
Merry Christmas! Here’s a link to last year's Celestra Christmas special. Enjoy!  Have blessed holiday!

The Tuesday Tease + cover reveal

Welcome back to the Tuesday tease! 
Wow, December is melting away. I hope you're far more on top of the season than I am. I'm going to have a wrap-fest this weekend. I wouldn't mind a few elves to help out right about now. 

Cover reveal! Entropy (The Countenance Trilogy Book 3)

I love it. Laken on Paragon...or Laken at Ephemeral, take your pick. ;)

Book news: Sugar Kisses is in edits! Yay! Roxy and Cole are hot. I had lots of fun with them. I hope you will, too.

Entropy is DONE. Yes, done. And the release date is.... December  27th!!! Finally, Laken gets the rest of her story. I really LOVE this book, and I love this trilogy. It all ends at the Ephemeral Academy. I hope you'll enjoy the ride. The last adventure is a wild one. 

Celestra Forever After is moving to the front burner! I'll be editing other books but this one will be the one I'm writing. It's in bits and pieces so I'll have to put it together. I really want to do Skyla justice in this new series. This new part of her life is very important because she's coming into her own in so many ways.

Enough of my rambling. On to the teasers!



Sugar Kisses (3:AM Kisses Book 3) Roxy and Cole’s story. (Roxy’s POV at the apartment feeding Cole a cupcake)
“Chocolate’s my favorite.” He takes a bite and freezes. His apple green eyes lay over mine, and he doesn’t move. Cole doesn’t breathe. He finishes it off in a few quick bites, and a roar gurgles from his throat.“I like to call it nothing’s better than sex with Cole Brighton cake. I bet I could sell them by the dozen just standing outside sorority row.” There’s a fun fact.



ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3) *Young Adult
(Laken’s POV talking to her sister, Jen.)

Jen looks right at me, drilling those smoky blue eyes into mine as if she were looking to start a fight. “I think you should kiss him. Kiss him with your entire soul, Laken. Let it be the longest, most satisfying kiss a girl could ever have, and make sure you remember every single second. Then say goodbye and come right back.” She gives a sad, slow nod as a single tear glides down her cheek. “Go right now, Laken. Don’t waste another minute.”“Now?” My gut explodes in a ball of heat just thinking of sharing one last kiss with Coop. “Can I borrow your car?”“You won’t have to. I came up to tell you he’s here to see you. He’s waiting for you in the kitchen.” She gives me a gentle shove off the bed. “Go.”     



CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER *New AdultNew Adult  17+
*Logan’s POV with Marshall

“Don’t look at me that way. You don’t have any ‘problems,’ Dudley. Your every whim is at your fingertips, and you’re running around the time continuum having sex with my wife.”“Testy today are we?”“You bring out the best in me sweetheart.”“That’s funny.” He leans in—a smile tugging at his lips. “That’s what Skyla says when we’re through.”  I clock him in the jaw, and he falls back on that pile of horseshit he’s been shoveling.“Well look at that.” I soak in the sight. “Maybe you do have a problem.”

*Thank you so much for reading~! Enjoy the week!

The Tuesday tease!


It's happening again—Tuesday! I hope you all had a great week of shopping, decorating, and maybe even sneaking in a nap or two. 

Book news: I turned in the final edits of SOMEONE FOR ME, the last story for Kenny and Cruise. It was bittersweet but it's a wild ride, and I hope you'll have as much fun with it as I did. SOMEONE LIKE YOU (the second book in the Someone to Love series) is slated for release on January 28th! Eek! I'm SO—SOOO excited!


Entropy is done, done, done, just waiting for feedback from my Betas and a final sweep-through from my editor. It's December so everyone is moving at holiday pace but I'm going to push hard to get this book out to you this month. 

On to the teasers!!


Sugar Kisses (3:AM Kisses Book 3) *New AdultRoxy and Cole’s story. (Roxy’s POV at the apartment)
Roxy dips her chin to her chest. Her eyes latch onto mine with a look that says she’s about to eat me for breakfast, and, holy hell, I hope she does.“Get over here.” She points to her feet.“Sure thing, cupcake.” My lip curls up one side because I happen to know it’s the last thing she wants me to call her, but she’s cute like one and I’m guessing tasty so I don’t see me stopping anytime soon.  

ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3) *Young Adult
(Laken’s POV)
*Laken with someone (edited to omit names ;)
“I want to have that with you.” My voice trembles. “I love you.”His chest huffs with relief. His lips pull back in an easy smile. He’s gorgeous, humble and righteous, and he’s all mine. He’s everything I could ever ask for. I’m the luckiest girl in the world.


CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER *New AdultNew Adult  17+
*Skyla’s POV with Marshall
“When he died it was like I was constantly in front of some invisible cliff, and every step I took felt as if I was about to fly off the edge.” I shake my head. “I was so afraid.”“And now?” Marshall adjusts the saddle with a vigorous yank, and the muscles pop in his jaw.  “I’m still blanketed in this fog.” I glance outside the barn. “It’s like I’m the island, and the mist creates a buffer from the rest of the world.”“Well, Ms. Paragon, I suggest you brace yourself. Life will never be a bed of roses. In fact, you might just say it’s one horrific surprise after another.”“Boy, you’re a ball of sunshine.” Marshall illuminates in a fit of brilliance from the inside out. “Technically, I am.” 


*Have a great week!
Perfect Love (Logan's story) is now available!
The beginning of Gavin's story, BEAUTIFUL ILLUSIONS, is available here.

Christmas Lites III and Tuesday teasers!

Happy Tuesday! Only 3 more until Christmas! (Yeah, that...)

ENTROPY is off to the editor and Betas, so I'll most likely do a cover reveal next Tuesday. As long as my editor doesn't make me hack it to pieces the book should be out this month, yay!!! 

But... Christmas Lites III is out TODAY!!!! Christmas Lites is an anthology of Christmas stories by various authors, and all of the proceeds go toward the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. Christmas Lites is the brainchild of the awesome Amy Eye. My contribution is a glimpse into BEAUTIFUL ILLUSIONS, Gavin's story. I hope you all enjoy the trip back to Lake Loveless. It's Christmas time and well, Gavin is hawt. ;) Happy reading~!


On to the teasers!


ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3)
(Wesley’s POV)
*Wes with Laken
“Please, Laken. Don’t leave me.” There. If I was at all afraid I was going to come off like a pussy tonight, now I’m sure of it, and I really don’t care. “Let me love you every single day. He’s not the one for you.” Done. Every word I wish to God I had never said just spilled out like a sea of secrets my soul was too weak to keep. At least I didn’t say his name. I put Coop in a jar and didn’t take the lid off. He’s like a freaking apparition. Say his name and you can conjure him right here in the flesh. Laken bites down over her bottom lip. A single tear rolls down her cheek like a star dropping from the tired sky.
CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER New Adult  17+
*Gage’s POV(Gage with Skyla)
“I think sometimes the past can cloud things. How about just for today we start anew.” I nod down the fog-laden beach. “Let’s take a walk.”She slips her hand in mine and nuzzles her head over my chest.“So are you going to tell me what you and your dad talked about today?”I groan in lieu of an answer. Most likely not, I want to say.“Okay.” She spins into me and we pause with our feet sinking into the cool sand. “Let’s try this another way. What has you running scared, Oliver?”Running scared is right, but I’ll be the last to admit it. Once Skyla finds out the truth she’ll be the one running scared—and most likely pissed. Hell, I’m pissed.  
SUGAR KISSES (3:AM Kisses Book 3) New Adult 17+Roxy and Cole’s story. (Roxy’s POV at the apartment)
You know that feeling you get when you’re in the middle of a one-night stand and the headboard thrashes into the wall, over and over, like a thousand demons begging to burst from the gates of hell?Yeah, neither do I.I twist in my bed and stomp my stilettos into my roommates adjoining wall, but their wild f*cking spree continues undaunted.

Hope you enjoyed the teasers! Have a great week!

*All proceeds from Christmas Lites III go to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. There are over a dozen Christmas themed stories by different authors. Christmas Lites III goes on sale first week of December.




On to the teasers! 
*News! Entropy is on the way to the editor and betas! *finally*


ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3)
(Cooper’s POV)
*Coop with Laken
“Say it’s not true.” She slides down my body like a pole, her shoulders sagging once her feet hit the ground. “I can handle what you’re trying to do, I swear it.” Laken pleads with those prism cut eyes. Her lips tremble, desperate to hear the words she longs for me to say. “Do you want to see other people?” Her mouth opens as if she just had a revelation.My gut pinches because holy hell I swear I never thought she’d go in that direction. 
CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER New Adult  17+
*Skyla’s POV(Skyla with Ellis)
“Oh crap,” I whisper, looking at the rundown facility, the paint is chipping so bad you’d think the entire building suffered a third degree sunburn.  A few windows have huge spider-webbed bullseyes through them as if they’ve taken a bullet, and to add a touch of class, tinfoil lines the inside.“I know, Dude.” Ellis slaps me on the back. “This is the shit!”“It is shit. Ellis, your dad is a slumlord. There’s no way I’m living here.”“First month is free.”“Great. Where do I sign?”
*Happy Thanksgiving all! xoxo
Thank you to all who have supported Perfect Love

Someone Like You cover reveal!!!!!

Eeeeeep! I've waited so long to show you this! Here it is, the awesome super hawt cover for book 2 in the Someone to Love series~!

Someone Like You (January 28th 2014)



A little about the book: 
When coed Ally Monroe literally falls into the arms of a tattooed bad-boy one summer night, she can't seem to let go. Morgan Jordan is everything Ally doesn't want—he's a playboy from a blue collar background, and Ally's looking for upper-class stability. Though their relationship starts off as a one-night stand, once Ally learns Morgan is her best friend's brother, there's no escaping him . . . or the growing fire between them. As Ally and Morgan become closer, they confront bitter enemies, his sister's disapproval, and paths pulling them in different directions at summer's end. The second book in the bestselling Someone to Love series proves that in love and passion, sometimes two wrongs do make a right.

Gah! Morgan Jordan is so freaking hot. I CANNOT wait to share him with you!!!! 

Someone Like You releases January 28, 2014

I'll start teasers for Someone Like You sometime in December~!

Pre-order available here!

On to the teasers...



ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3)
(Laken’s POV)
*Laken with Wes at a dance
Wes crashes over me with a kiss. His mind opens, murky at first then clear and light as if it were a dark cave and he had invited in the sun. Wes shows me an image of a couple lying on top of dark sheets—two vanilla bodies writhing over one another. I recognize that dark-haired boy with his body of chiseled marble, hands as wide as baseball mitts as they travel down familiar thighs, mine. I pull back, panting. “Wes.” A smile comes uninvited to my lips. “I’d say get your mind out of the gutter but I like it.” I look down because Coop is in the room, and I want nothing more than for the sparkling chandelier hanging up above to fall on my head.


CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER New Adult  17+
*Skyla’s POV
(Skyla with someone) I’m sure at this point most of you know who. :)
Heartbreak comes in colors, mostly greys and blues, but love comes in a burst—a rainbow exploding over you like confetti. And lust, well it’s safe to say that tonight lust comes in cobalt, in raven-colored hair, skin hard and pale as marble under the kiss of the anemic moon. “Come here.” I lure him over with a curl of my finger—my toes digging into the ebony sand beneath my feet.“Everything go okay with your mom today?”I give a slight nod. My mother opened a pathway that I thought could never be. She healed me in so many ways and showed me the truth about love and loss, about what comes next and how important it is to keep your heart open.His lips curve up one side. His dimples go off and my stomach bottoms out.I press my hand up over his chest like touching heated steel. His lids hood low. That sexy grin presses in over his face, and I can feel our bodies magnetizing like two trains that are about to collide. 
Enjoy the week!And happy reading~!

Tuesday Tease

It's Tuesday! That means just three more days until Logan's story, PERFECT LOVE releases! Yes, I'm that excited to share it with you. :) 

On to the teasers!


Perfect Love (A Celestra Novella)
Logan’s point of view from select chapters in ELYSIAN (36-39). Includes the first chapter of CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER.
I reach over and grab a condom from Dudley’s pornographic care package, although there’s not one pornographic implication about anything that’s about to go down. This is love. This is beauty in the most perfect sense.

(CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER) 
*Gage’s POV(Gage with Skyla)
She glances down and nods. “You know what I’m sort of feeling bad about?” “The fact I practically ran you out of the house before you could finish my mother’s gourmet pancakes?” It’s true. I doubt she got a solid bite in. Forget dinner, I owe her breakfast, too.“No, not that.” She gets a look on her face like she couldn't get out of there fast enough. Skyla lands those pale blue eyes over mine, and I melt into her. I want to pull her deep into the bed of my truck and take her right here just shy of the Paragon Harbor parking lot. “The fact that I’ve been holding you off at an arm’s length.”“What?” I tick my head back an inch. “If you’ve been giving me the cold shoulder, you’ve been doing a lousy job.”

ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3)
(Laken’s POV)
*Laken with Wes
Wes pushes my knees back to my hips as be begins to fall over me.A blackness so consuming clouds my heart. The dark days were coming, meeting me right here with their necrotic hand. Wes rises over me, ready to press in and make me his for all eternity.We’re to recite the holy creed, adjusted for this occasion. His dimple ignites soft on his cheek. Then I’ll make you mine, now and forever.

*Look for Sugar Kisses teasers coming soon!
