Coming Down . . .
So, I just wanted to let everyone know that I am going to un-publish One Black Rose after tomorrow, Wednesday. I want to get a new cover and do some edits and it just seems easier if I take it down. August and Autumn are probably going to follow by the end of June, so that people who have picked up One Black Rose have time to get those, but if you haven't gotten One Black Rose and you want to, be sure to grab it by tomorrow while it's there and free!!!

Another pretty, new cover!!
Paranormal Public got a new cover tonight and I couldn't be more excited. I like that Victoria Faye kept the original concept and just made it all kinds of gorgeous. I really love it :-) I hope you all do too!!!

Name Change and other exciting news!!
Hi Everyone,
I hope you all are having a great week. I am as of right now, because the cover for Museum of Masks has just arrived. First, you need to know that I have changed the name of the book to Elemental Rising. There are a variety of reasons that this made sense, but I just want to make it clear that it is the SAME book. I did not write the third book in two weeks. None of you all would want to read that. The cover was done by Sybille over at Magpie Magic and for anyone looking for gorgeous covers I definitely recommend checking her out. She was wonderful. Anyway, I love love love the cover and am really excited that it is beautiful and professional now.
My other update is that Elemental Rising was reviewed by the Elizabeth over at Wading Through Electronic Ink. I feel sure that she doesn't do anything but read, given how fast she turns out lovely reviews, but I am delighted to have it. Check it out here:

There's a link. YAY! The cover might be changing soon, because I am having a new cover done for the first book and once I've seen that I might have a cover done for the second book, but the important thing is that it's available!! Happy reading.

Tuesday or Wednesday release
Hi Everyone,
Museum of Masks is going to be uploaded Tuesday or Wednesday according to my editor. When she tells me she is uploading it I will do a post. I would just like to say thanks to everyone for being patient. I really appreciate it. I know you all have been waiting a really long while and been taking time out of your day to check in with me. You are all wonderful. Just so everyone knows, I was due to move at the end of April, and the plan was to publish Museum right before I did that, but I ended up moving in the middle of April, which threw everyone off. Before I release my next book I am going to figure out a better way to do release dates. I will just have to build in some time to the schedule to allow for unexpected events happening in my life and the life of the people who put so much work into getting the book out. I am always so excited to get the books out that I want to release them at the soonest possible date, but I have an editor, beta readers and proofreaders and they all have their own lives to factor in as well. I very much want to do right by them and by you my delightful readers, so I will need to figure that out in the future. I desperately wanted an April release date, but it is, in fact, going to be May first or second. I'm very sorry about this, but I am glad my editor had the time she needed and that I am happily ensconced in my new home. I'll be in touch tomorrow or Wednesday. Can't wait!

Here's another teaser. Won't be long now! :-)
“This is for my mother,” I breathed. “And for every other elemental who should be here, but isn’t.” Eyes burning, I stepped into the forcefield and was consumed.

Museum of Masks info and teaser
Hi everyone,
As you may have noticed there was no teaser last week, which was because I had to move. Suddenly. Everything is fine, in fact I'm very happy, but it set things back and made me miss a week. For that I apologize. Now, on to the information. My editor still has Museum of Masks, so it doesn't look like it will release Friday, but it will still be April. I know you all have been waiting for it a while and I have been waiting to release it for a while. I hope you will all bear with me. When I have more info you all will be the first to know. Now, here is a teaser. Enjoy.
“Yay for family dinners,” said Ricky grinning. “This outta be fun.”I couldn’t help it. I giggled and settled in for another visit with my brother.“I’m home. I’m going to cook everyone dinner to celebrate.” I bustled around the kitchen. Everything felt odd and unfamiliar. At the best of times I was not a good cook - even if Ricky tactfully never actually came out and said that - and now having been at college for a year I was not only still bad, but rusty to boot.Ricky’s dusty blond eyebrows disappeared under his bangs. “If we are celebrating why are you cooking? Shouldn’t dad and I get a chance to be happy? Lets order pizza. I’ll let you dial.”

Teaser and Spiral Update
Hi everyone, so, first, I wanted to let you know that my editor is enjoying Museum at the moment, so I'm hopeful there won't be too many things I have to change. Also, before I get to the teaser, I just wanted to let you know that Spiral was obviously not released on the first… because it's still with my editor, but should still be out by the end of the month. Since it's kind of out of my hands I will keep you updated here though. :-)
Now, the fun bit. Get a little glimpse of a new character in this one. Here's the teaser! Enjoy.
"I could call you Belle for short," Trafton offered, his voice filled with honey."I wouldn't," said Lisabelle."Why not?" "Because I'm assuming you value your life."Trafton turned to me. "What are the odds that she's joking?"I didn't even have to consider the question. "Slim to none.""Are you sure?""Lisabelle doesn't joke. The last time she laughed she was probably ten and it was at you. Not with you."
