New Moo Cards!

My new Moo cards came in!  Squee!  And for those of you who don't know, the Moo company is a delightful little business who makes stellar business cards :D

I blogged about the last set I got here.  And since I got a new blog design, I wanted to match it with new cards!  I absolutely love these little things, so I just had to share.

Excerpt from METAMORPHOSIS my new PNR!

Happy Monday, my friends!

Well, I'm a little over halfway done with my new adult paranormal romance, so it's about time for a short excerpt!

As you can see from the blog title the new work is called Metamorphosis, and features yet another snarky, offbeat heroine.  I think this chick is the craziest one yet!  She knows what she wants and doesn't let people push her around--especially her hero.  Poor guy D:  She gives him a break sometimes, though ;D

Hope you enjoy!
