Yo, ho, ho! Only One Week Left!
Fane returns in a sexy, thrilling story of intrigue and adventure in his story: "A Vampire's Life For Me."
About: Fane Donado’s always been a "grab life by the teeth" kind of vampire. When his alluring friend Cassie requests help investigating suspicious vamp deaths in the Caribbean Islands, Fane hops the first plane down. Playing Sherlock Holmes isn’t half as enticing as convincing Cassie to break her number one rule of not dating other vampires. But if it’s true that a vampire hunter’s trolling the islands, they’re all at risk.
Anthology includes New York Times and USA Today Bestsellers. Ten tales of vampire adventures set in the Caribbean.
Releases: March 15th

Kindle Fire Giveaway – Ends 3/19
This week marks the 5 year anniversary of publishing my first novel, Entangled, from the Spellbound Trilogy.
Putting that first title out there was one of the scariest and most satisfying moments in my life. Books have always been my #1 go-to escape. Stories have saved me, time after time.
Thank you for all your support, whether you read my books, reviewed them, recommended them to reading friends, shared posts on social media, or all of the above! I'm excited about the next 5 years with big goals to take storytelling to the next level. There are already two new series in the works, an epic fantasy that's grown into a mammoth story beyond my wildest dreams. And a sexy and exciting dystopian fantasy romance with wolf shifters. It will be wonderful to share more updates in the coming months. I look forward to dazzling you with new worlds, adventures, and characters to love (and loathe)!
Below, you'll find a link to enter an indie-versary, reader appreciation giveaway Stacey Marie Brown and I are joint hosting. It turns out her indie-versary is this week, too!
Enter HERE for a chance to win:
1) Kindle Fire
2) $25 Amazon Card
3) A signed copy of ANY of Stacey's or Nikki's books!
Thank you for reading!

Last Chance To Get Aurora Sky Before It Goes Into KU
Happy October!
I’ve always loved this time of year. In Anchorage we used to joke about only having two seasons: Winter and Summer. Thankfully, fall in the Pacific Northwest lasts longer. My good friend, and incredible storyteller, Stacey Marie Brown took me to an apple orchard to celebrate my 39th birthday at the end of last month. It was the first time I’ve ever gone through a corn maze and, with the help of my fur buddy, Cosmo, we found our way out.
Yet another reason to love this time of year . . . Halloween!
And I have NEWS:
This Halloween the Aurora Sky: Vampire Hunter series will be offered in Kindle Unlimited for the very first time!
There’s been an overwhelming number of requests for this over the past year but I wanted to wait until the final book released and readers could purchase the entire series on their device of choice.
This is a final head’s up. If you would like to purchase any of the Aurora Sky books on iBooks, Nook, Kobo, Google Play, or Smashwords they will be available until October 30th. This also means book one will no longer be available for free as there will be no more Amazon price matching. So, if for some reason it's not on your eReader, hurry up and download your free copy! :D
Visit the Aurora Sky page for the full list of links.
Meanwhile, I am hard at work revising a fantasy fairy tale I started a year ago. I cannot wait to share more!
AND! Characters from Aurora Sky will be appearing in a vampire anthology at the beginning of next year. Which character(s) would you like to see more of?
You're Invited!
Join in the urban fantasy fun by clicking "going" on the Halloween Magic Facebook Party Page.
I'll be there on the 28th with wicked good giveaways.
Come over and start collecting door prizes!
