“I loathed myself for wishing a death of that nature on anyone, and even more so because I still wanted it to happen. My moral fiber was unraveling quickly, and I wondered how long my humanity could withstand the unending trial of values my life had become. With every choice I made, I felt it slipping away.
And further down the rabbit hole I fell.”

He left without pause – without looking back. The single connection to normality I had was driving back to Boston, to a life interrupted by the knowledge that legends and lore may not be just that, and left to contemplate what other monsters may be in existence beyond what he’d witnessed that night. I was left to acknowledge that my friend was gone, my partner was lost, and yet another person’s life was damaged because of knowing me.
Maybe a cage was exactly where I belonged.
The deaths of three PC brothers have yet to be solved, and Ruby once again finds her head sitting squarely on the chopping block. To make matters worse, a revenge-crazed werewolf keeps hijacking her mind, replaying all the details of his gruesome attacks.
As she struggles to navigate her way through this life of supernatural violence, Ruby realizes that the dreams of normal women her age may never become her reality. No white dress. No family of her own. She fears that everything and everyone she knows is in danger — and it’s all because of her. When she finally accepts those fears as fact, Ruby takes drastic measures to ensure the safety of those she loves most…
Even if it means forfeiting her own.

After his near death experience only months earlier, Cooper’s behavior is rapidly deteriorating.
So what does Ruby do? She adds a new roommate into the mix. When her friend Ronnie is abruptly called away for a family emergency, Ruby takes in Peyta, Ronnie’s highly intelligent and overly observant teenage daughter. With an increasingly unstable Cooper in the house, Ruby fears for Peyta’s safety.
But when Peyta’s behaviors become as perplexing as Cooper’s, Ruby finds herself juggling a series of lies to ensure their safety as well as her own…
Until the lies, and the bodies, start dropping.

After the death of her parents, Ruby awakens from a lifetime of shadows and finds herself alone, thrust into a world of lies, deceit, betrayal and the supernatural.
As her quest for truth continues to come up short, she realizes that maybe some questions really are best left unanswered.
When her true identity is finally unveiled, she is forced to choose between two of the mysterious men who continually seem to crop up in her life.
She chooses poorly.
Now abandoned, Ruby must learn to call on the darkness within to survive, or spend a hellish eternity imprisoned because of it

Another Benchmark…
Tomorrow marks another milestone for me as a writer. My co-w
ritten young adult fantasy series launches and I’m both excited and nervous. Doing something new is always scary, but it’s necessary for growth as a person. I hope that this endeavor becomes as popular as Caged or even more so.
I will be posting the links for Tempted by Evil tomorrow when it goes live. Please share and retweet with your friends!

New Projects…
I’m sure that by now I have confused the daylights out of most of you regarding the projects I have in the works (and rattling about in my brain). In light of this, I decided to do a tiny little blog about my different projects, how they do or don’t relate, and when to expect them to be available for purchase.
Here goes nothing…
The Caged Series: I think this one is self-explanatory given it’s how 95% of you know about me in the first place. There will be seven books and two novellas total.
The Unborn Series: This will debut in 2013. It is related to Caged and runs parallel in timeline. It’s the same world, but different setting and different supernatural beings. You may see some faces you know, but they will be minor players or cameo appearances. The series as a whole is darker than Caged, but would still be classified as urban fantasy/paranormal romance with a hint of dark fantasy. I LOVE how this one is shaping up. I have about 20% written and can’t wait to devote some attention to it
The Light and Shadow Trilogy: This is a YA series that has NO RELATION TO CAGED WHATSOEVER (just to be clear on that). It’s dark, cerebral, and has a dystopianesque lean throughout the series. I think it brings a little edge to the YA world as the series progresses, and I’m excited to see how it goes over with readers.
UNTITLED series: This is the new one that just hit me like a ton of bricks the other day. It too is the same world as Caged. You will see more of the characters you love from Caged than you will in the Unborn series in this one, but it has a slightly different focus with the new cast. I’m unclear on whether or not it will be told in single first person POV. I have this feeling that each book might be in a different voice and follow that character. I’m not sold on that idea, but my gut seems to think that’s where I need to take things and my gut, unlike Ruby’s, is usually right. The characters are a bit younger in this one, but not YA young…more new adult young. I think it could be amazing, but I have a lot of plotting to do on it. It most likely will not come out until the conclusion of Caged, so I have a ton of time
I don’t have anything to put here yet, but I’m sure I will soon!
