Review Copies of Beyond Addiction
It won’t be too long until Beyond Addiction is available! We’re working on edits now, which mean ARCs will be going out, too. (I don’t have an exact timeline on this, but within a few weeks, most likely. A few notes about ARCs this time:
We’ll be making the book available on Netgalley for a brief time. If that is your preferred way to receive books, sign up below and we’ll send you a link when the listing is live.
If you don’t belong to our Reviewer List yet but have still found your way to this post, consider subscribing! It’s the easiest way to be sure you know when ARCs are available.
We don’t have a release date for this book, because we’re trying an experiment where we just post the book when it’s ready with no advance fanfare. If you’re a blogger or reviewer and want to know when the book has been uploaded, we’ll be sending out a one time heads-up to people who sign up here.

Fight Night Championship Round!
The final round is underway, though it took me a few days to make this post–for a very good reason.
Beyond Addiction is finished!
Huzzah! As you read this, Donna is working hard on edits. We hope to have it to our editor by the end of the month. That means it won’t be long now before you have it in your greedy hands. (No, there’s no pre-order this time. Sorry!) But if you want a chance to read it early…
Place your championship vote in the rafflecopter above. You’ll be entered to win an eARC of Beyond Addiction* and we’ll know who should win. And if you want to get your own Fight Night graphics to post & share, you can find them on the cheering page.
This year, we’ll be writing a free story about the fight night champion. So do you want to see more of your favorite couple? Do you want a peek into the past–or present–of someone whose story hasn’t been told yet? Vote for your favorite and your wish may be our command!
* ARCs will be delivered after the book has gone through some editing. We’ll send them to the winners ASAP.

Fight Night: Round Two
The fight’s were long and vicious–and in Cruz & Ace’s case, almost too close to call–but the results are in. Ace pulled out a win against Cruz (probably because Cruz doesn’t like to hit him.) Dallas showed Mad that a king is better than a prince. Bren proved to Noah that he’s just as deadly as ever. And Jas gave Jared a little friendly beat-down.
Round Two starts now, and it’s going to be ugly. Will you pick Ace or Dallas? Bren or Jas? Only two O’Kanes get to advance to the championship. Just place your two votes in the rafflecopter below. You’ll be entered for prizes and we’ll know who should win. And if you want to get your own Fight Night graphics to post & share, you can find them on the cheering page.

(Oh, who are we kidding. Everyone is going down eventually. It is Sector Four.)

Beyond Temptation is available now!
We had so much fun producing the Marked anthology with Lauren Dane & Vivian Arend, but the ebook has been broken apart and the novellas are now available for individual purchase. If you hadn’t grabbed your copy of Beyond Temptation, you can now!
A Beyond Novella (#3.5)
Hacker Noah Lennox lives in the shadows, fighting a one-man war against the corrupt leader of Sector Five. The only weak spot in his armor is his best friend’s sweet younger sister–the girl he swore to save, even from himself. With her brother dead and a target on their backs, getting her out of the sector–and out of danger–meant giving her up for good.
Or so he thought.
Emma Cibulski has made her own home in Sector Four, as a full member of the O’Kane gang and apprentice to their infamous tattoo artist. When Noah–the first man she ever loved–stumbles back into her life, it’s her chance to have it all. The spark between them burns hotter than ever, and this time her fantasies are far from innocent.
But can they handle the heat…or will Noah’s dark secrets drive them apart forever?

Summer 2014 Virtual Signing
Hey guys! We’re thinking of doing another virtual signing, since the last one went really well. The basic idea is: you buy books. We sign them. We send them, with fun swag. If we have any limited edition things (like leftover flasks) you can buy those as well. We leave the signing open for a couple weeks, after which it all goes away until the next big event.
This is not a commitment! We're just hoping to get a rough idea of how many people want to buy signed copies of various books. If you sign up for copies here, we'll contact you first when the books become available.
Name*Email*Which of the following would you want autographed?*Novel #1: Beyond ShameNovel #2: Beyond ControlNovel #3: Beyond PainNovel #4: Beyond JealousyNovella #3.5: Beyond TemptationNovella #4.5: Beyond SolitudeAnthology: Marked (with Lauren Dane & Vivian Arend)(Novels & Anthologies will probably be priced between $13-$15, novellas between $8-$10, with a discount available to people who buy multiple books. Selecting a book now doesn't mean you promise to buy it, but please only check the box if you're strongly considering! We'll be using these responses to figure out how many books we need to order.)
NOTES ABOUT SHIPPING
Shipping varies based on the size box we estimate we’ll have to use for your order. Because of the complicated nature of shipping and how much time we can reasonably spend on this, we can only offer shipping in flat rate boxes. We know this can be really pricey for people outside the US, and we’re sorry, but it’s the best we can do at the moment. We will be offering autographed bookplates again, for those outside the US who’d like to order them. They only cost a few dollars. 
United States
Flat Rate Envelope: $6 (1-2 books)
Flat Rate Medium Box: $12 (3-10 books)
Flat Rate Large Box: $16 (10-20 books)
Canada
Flat Rate Envelope: $20 (1-2 books)
