Beyond Possession is on sale now!

I’m so excited, guys, because our fifth Beyond story of 2014 is out today! Five! In one year! I need a nap! (Okay, 3 of them were novellas, but still!)
I love Zan and Tatiana. I love her because life keeps knocking her on her ass, and she keeps climbing to her feet and daring life to take another swing. And I love him because the thing he wants most in the world is to protect her from taking another hit. Writing their story was a fun way to explore a different part of Sector Four, which is why I’ve so enjoyed the novellas.
(For those of you looking for #6.5 — Beyond Ecstasy…we’ve bumped that novella from our lineup for now. The novellas were a fun experiment this year, and we may do more of them, but several of our ideas for novellas have blown up into novel plots, so for the time being we’re not going to announce anymore until we’ve written them and they’ve stayed novellas.)
With that out of the way… if you haven’t gotten your copy of Beyond Possession, here’s your chance!
#5.5: Beyond Possession
Tatiana Stone has worked hard to establish herself as one of Sector Four’s most skilled crafters. All she wants is peace–but the sins of her father haunt her. He ruled the sector as a petty tyrant before the O’Kane takeover, and plenty of people harbor bitter memories of his cruelty. Especially now that Tatiana’s beloved baby sister has fallen in with a man who wants to start a revolution.
Zan failed his boss once, and it won’t happen again. So when Dallas O’Kane asks him to defuse the rebellion brewing in the sector, he’ll do whatever it takes to get the job done–including seduce Tatiana. It’s the perfect opportunity to get closer to the pretty crafter and complete his mission. But what he discovers is a fiery, passionate woman–and an affair that could destroy them both.

Long Hard Ride (Rough Riders #1) by Lorelei James
Channing jumps at the chance to shed her inhibitions and join a real chaps-and-spurs wearing rodeo cowboy for a wild summer on the circuit. Having his two traveling partners join in? Might be more than she bargained for. Can Colby McKay and his sweet-talking ways burrow into her heart and lead them to true love?
Tank (Blue Collar Billionaires #1) by M. Malone
Tank swore years ago to leave his anger behind, but after his mother is diagnosed with cancer and his deadbeat dad makes an appearance, sweet Emma Shaw might be the only one keeping him from exploding. But when billions are at stake, there’s no such thing as innocent. Money. Changes. Everything.
All Fired Up (DreamMakers #1) by Vivian Arend & Elle Kennedy
Parker Wilson unexpectedly went from battle-hardened soldier to romance expert, but when a routine date recon turns into an unexpected night of passion, his mission becomes personal. Lynn Davidson is thrilled to walk on the wild side, but when their red-hot affair is threatened, it’ll take a united DreamMakers effort to make their dreams come true.
In Kelly’s Corner (Fighting Connellys #1) by Roxie Rivera
After a stalker threatens her, internet entrepreneur Bee Langston turns to Kelly Connolly to be her bodyguard. Up until now, Kelly had desperately tried to deny his feelings for his best friend’s sister, but he can’t turn her away. Only family troubles of his own interfere—ones that just might cost Bee her life.
Tucker’s Fall (Purgatory Masters #1) by Eliza Gayle
Maggie Cisco returns to her hometown to lick her wounds and reconsider her future when a snowstorm puts her in the path of the handsome, rich and intense Tucker Lewis. No stranger to personal gossip, he looks past her recent scandal to the submissive craving a master’s touch—he’s going after Maggie and her heart’s kinkiest desires.
Beyond Shame (Beyond #1) by Kit Rocha

Jasper McCray, bootlegger and cage fighter, has clawed his way up from nothing to stand at the right hand of Sector Four’s ruthless leader.

As head chef in an Indian restaurant Devi Malik knows how to heat up everything—except her love life. Offered a chance to fulfill a secret fantasy involving her long-time crush and his brother, Devi puts her desire on the front two burners. It’ll take more than explosive sex, however, to light up the shadows surrounding Marcus and Jace Callahan’s secrets.

Pre-Order Beyond Possession!

So, people have been asking us about pre-orders for a while. It’s something Amazon only set up recently for self-published authors, but we’re still trying to decide how it will fit into our release strategy going forward. It’s hard to know how it will work without trying, so I present…
An experiment!
Our November novella is up for pre-order on Amazon, B&N, Kobo & iBooks. If pre-orders matter a lot to you, vote with your clicking mouse. If you don’t care either way, buy the novella whenever you normally would have. Do it for science!
Beyond Possession
Beyond, Novella #5.5
Tatiana Stone has worked hard to establish herself as one of Sector Four’s most skilled crafters. All she wants is peace–but the sins of her father haunt her. He ruled the sector as a petty tyrant before the O’Kane takeover, and plenty of people harbor bitter memories of his cruelty. Especially now that Tatiana’s beloved baby sister has fallen in with a man who wants to start a revolution.
Zan failed his boss once, and it won’t happen again. So when Dallas O’Kane asks him to defuse the rebellion brewing in the sector, he’ll do whatever it takes to get the job done–including seduce Tatiana. It’s the perfect opportunity to get closer to the pretty crafter and complete his mission. But what he discovers is a fiery, passionate woman–and an affair that could destroy them both.

Beyond Addiction is on sale now!

Buy Beyond Addiction now:
Amazon, Barnes & Noble, All Romance Ebooks, Smashwords
iTunes & Kobo coming soon
Guys, it’s so exciting for book #5 in the series to finally be on sale! We’ve been waiting for a while to share Beyond Addiction with you, and now we get to! This book does a lot of things: it introduces you to some folks from a new sector (the mysterious Sector Six), it gives you a glimpse of how the people in Sector Five have lived. It introduces a few characters who will be central to upcoming novels and novellas.
She’s fought like hell to leave the past behind.
Trix changed her name and her life when she got clean four years ago. Now, she has a new family and a job she loves—tending bar and dancing at the Broken Circle. As an O’Kane, she’s happy, untouchable. Until a nightmare from her old life tears her away from her home and drags her back to Hell—also known as Sector Five.
He’s still living—and dying—in it.
Losing Trix was the kick in the head Finn needed to get sober, but working as an enforcer for a man he hates is slowly crushing his soul. The only thing that keeps him going is his determination to destroy Sector Five from the inside. Then Trix comes back into his life—alive, in danger—and nothing else matters.
Getting her home could be a suicide mission. The only thing deadlier is the old spark that flares to life between them. Soon, Finn and Trix are battling the one addiction neither of them ever managed to kick—each other. And it could cost them everything.

Start reading Beyond Addiction tonight!
Hey guys! Exciting news. Big big exciting news! And that news is that Beyond Addiction will be going live on retailers tonight and in the wee hours of the morning, if all goes according to plan.
But things rarely go according to plan, so if you’d like to get started on your reading, we’re publishing the first 50% of the book as a PDF tonight. Think about it as our gift to you–you can get your Sector Four fix with no danger of staying up all night to finish the book.
We’ll be back tomorrow with more news and excitement, but you’re probably not even listening anymore because I just gave you half the book for free, so go meet Trix & Finn. We hope you love them as much as we do!

The winner of Fight Night 2014 is…
Okay, I suppose we always knew the winner would probably be The King.
Thank you everyone for your participation! We’ll be picking winners from the rafflecopters over the next week–including the people who will have won eARCs of Addiction!
We’ll be working on the freebie story after Beyond Addiction is out in the world–once we figure out what it’s going to be! But Dallas (and Lex, of course) will be at its heart. And because Dallas won this summer, he will be taking his place in the new hall of fame and giving up his spot in next summer’s Fight Night competition. (Who knows, maybe Six will jump in the ring! :D)
