He jumped through the broken window, and bile rose in his throat. The glass from the window had shattered into pieces along the floor and onto the couch.

Announcement: Update to a Series
With everything going on a few readers asked me to let them have good news. Well, I have a few things on my writing block that I can’t talk about for a bit, but there is one thing I wasn’t planning on announcing until July, but since you guys needed good news…
So here it is….
Coming in 2016 – the second half of the Holiday, Montana series! Yes, the Coopers aren’t going anywhere. There will be FIVE more books in this series centering around holidays and the Coopers–and a few of their friends. That means FIVE more HEAs and you get to see the original sexy Coopers with their families!
And yes, you read that right…2016. Don’t worry, I have TONS for you before then but now you know after Jackson’s story in July the Coopers will be back!

Balin swung again, the other demon staggering back with the force of the blow. Balin gritted his teeth, his body weakening at the lack of energy, but fought on.

She felt a blush cover her face at the thought. Uh, yeah, “helping” her through the change would require sex. So not happening.

Cover Reveal: Dreams of Ivory
It’s the week of covers! Scott Carpenter is an amazing artist. This is perhaps my favorite cover EVER. This is the last Cooper Brother story from the Holiday, Montana series….but I wonder….will there be more in the series? Hmmm…
Dreams of Ivory Holiday, Montana Book 5 Coming July 16th, 2013
Jackson Cooper hates magic. Even though his brothers are falling prey to the seductive draw of the paranormal world, Jackson wants nothing to do with it. He also wants nothing to do with marriage, babies, and all that comes with it. He’s content with being the stoic, but quiet Uncle Jacks. But when a woman from his past, one he’s been dodging for years, comes back to town, Jackson might have to reevaluate his plans.
Honor Bridges is the tooth fairy. Well, not the tooth fairy, but at least one of them. For the past eight years she’s been on her own, hiding from what she truly wants. Now she’s back in Holiday and ready to take over her duties…as well as deal with Jackson once and for all. But there’s another player in town who isn’t happy with the decisions she made all those years ago and Jackson might be the one who takes the brunt of that anger.
Warning: Contains a wickedly spicy tooth fairy–complete with sparkly wings, the most tortured of all the Cooper brothers in all his broodiness, and dreams that are sure to make you never want to wake up in this final Cooper Brother’s installment of the Holiday, Montana series.

“Is everything all right?” he asked, his voice deep. The rough sound shot straight through her system. She was helpless to defend herself against it.

Cover Reveal: Redwood Pack Vol 4
COVER REVEAL: Redwood Pack Vol 4 (Coming in Print and Digital June 2013)
Redwood Pack Vol 4 contains the fifth book in the Redwood Pack series and a special novella in print and digital form
Forgiveness – Redwood Pack 4.7
Adam Jamenson’s courtship of his mate wasn’t the most conventional. In fact, it didn’t exist. Though he knows Bay loves him with every ounce of her soul, he needs to prove to her that he’s worth it. Not only for her, but for himself. While they move on and learn to be the Enforcer mated pair, Bay will find herself on a path that leads her to a history beyond just her and Adam’s mating. When she finds a locket rich in history and memories, she’ll do all in her power to see those involved found and remembered. With Adam by her side, they’ll both find the true meaning of forgiveness.
Author’s Note: This is a novella set between books 4 and 5 to give you a taste of Bay and Adam. It is best that you have already immersed yourselves in the Redwood Pack world, however even new readers will enjoy a glimpse of one of the Redwood’s favorite couples.
Shattered Emotions – Redwood Pack 5
Maddox Jamenson is the Omega of the Redwood Pack, the one burdened by emotions stronger than his own. He’s spent his entire life shrouded in the secrets of his “gift” and the price he has to pay to keep it, yet the cost just escalated. He’s known a mate could be in the cards for him, but he can’t have what he wants. Not when the battles he has yet to fight could destroy her.
Ellie Reyes was the Central’s princess, the daughter of the most hated Alpha of all time, yet not prized. No, she’s spent her life as the toy of her brother’s sadistic torture and has endured a pain that no one else should have to even contemplate. Though when she’s rescued, the one person who could help her, her mate, turns his back on her for reasons unknown to her. As each day passes, the strength that everyone sees in her dwindles to a point that there may be no coming back from.
When the Centrals find a new way to attack, leaving Ellie’s only protection a mate that she doesn’t think wants her, they’ll both have to overcome their fears and fight for something stronger than their pain. The war isn’t over and new players are coming that will decide the outcome. Maddox and Ellie’s connection will be tested even as their fragile bond is only newly forming.

Jamie Bennett cursed as a car sped by her through a puddle, splashing her with muddy water. The asshole obviously meant to compensate for a shortage of something.

Her Warriors’ Three Wishes Book Trailer
So Lex Valentine is amazing. Look at the trailer for Her Warriors’ Three Wishes (Dante’s Circle 2). OMG It’s PERFECT!!!
Manic Monday Updates: April Edition
Happy Monday! Whoa! What a month it’s been already! First off, Happy Tax Day and I hope you’re all done with that LOL. I just got back from my trip to Florida to visit Lia Davis and work on our plotting and writing. It was refreshing, exciting, and AMAZING. I met some wonderful readers and later this week, I’ll have a full blog post on it LOL.
Waiting for:
Covers for Dreams of Ivory and Redwood Pack Vol 4. Scott is having a CARRIE DAY soon and I should have them any day now. I’m doing a cover/blurb reveal for Dreams of Ivory soon as well.

Working on:
Getting the tour ready for HER WARRIORS’ THREE WISHES (Dante’s Circle 2). I still need to write these LOL. I’m getting there!
Writing:
SHATTERED EMOTIONS (Redwood Pack 5). Yes. I’m still writing this. I have rewritten this fully TWICE. I’m now on my third time going through it and will finish the darn thing Wednesday. I would have already been done if I hadn’t felt that Maddox and Ellie needed more than what they had. They needed more romance, more softness, less of what Adam had. I love what’s going on now in the book, but it’s taking forever LOL.
Dreams of Ivory (Holiday, Montana 5). I’ll be starting this the MINUTE I write the end on Shattered Emotions. Jackson’s story is going to be fun because I want to push this guy around a bit, plus there are a few surprises. (tee hee Charity and Mr. H.)
Fated Tranquility (Keys of Fate 1). Lia and I plotted the entire first book and four book series plot arc this weekend. As soon as Lia finishes Chapter 1 it’s my turn.

Other:
With all these releases coming up every month and without the ability to do pre-orders, the best way to know when you can buy my books, like Ambrose’s story this month, is to sign up for my newsletter. Click HERE if you’d like to!
Until next month!!!
