Tomorrow @ 4AM (US, PST), most of my books will be 99-cents to celebrate my birthday! (Excluded are omnibus editions and TERRORSCAPE, because I messed up on the settings - eek). Except for the excluded titles I just mentioned, EVERYTHING will be 99-cents, so if you've been wanting to try my work or have been saving up for the sequel, now's a great time to buy it!

The sale will run through the 7th.

Additionally, CLOAK AND DAGGER will be freeeee. That's right, freeee. That means you can get the ENTIRE quadrilogy for just $3.00. Beat that!

Unapologetic Romance Readers

Hey, guys! If you enjoy reading romance, you should consider joining this book club/discussion group:

https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...

It's ENTIRELY romance-geared, but we read all romance sub-genres as well as LGBT+ romance novels, and we try to do free Kindle reads every other month or so.

There is NO SELF-PROMOTION, although we do have author interviews (our first is with Courtney Milan this month!).

We have a FREE BOOK WATCH, where eagle eyed guys and gals post links they see to giveaways, Kindle freebies, and relevant Goodreads giveaways.

Also, we have wonderful moderators, the group is varied and lively and respectful, and it's really just the best place ever. I was feeling disenchanted with reading and reviewing for a little while & this group really helped rekindle my love for reading. <3

So if you love romance novels and want an energetic, passionate, intelligent, and kind group of people to discuss them with, please join URR. We'd love to have you!

I'm excited about the ratings, but I might be even more excited to use a picture of "happily beeping" BB-8. That adorable little rascal.

New Blog: Readasaurus Reviews

Hi guys! I've received a few more messages about where I'll be posting reviews. The answer is HERE:

http://readasaurus.blogspot.com/

My new blog is called Readasaurus Reviews!

Follow me! I post new reviews at least once a week, and you'll get to access them at least 12 hours earlier there than you will on Goodreads.

Also, my review listing is completely up to date, and sorted by author and rating which makes navigation SO MUCH EASIER. :)

Touched with Sight Broke 100 Ratings!

I am so happy to announce that Touched with Sight broke a milestone - it now has 100 ratings on Goodreads...thanks to you guys!!!

Thank you so much for reading! I'm not on as often anymore, but I try to read all of the reviews for my books & thank anyone I see reading. I'm so grateful that words are almost inadequate for expressing how wonderful it is to see your books not just being read, but also enjoyed.

As always, thank you for giving me a chance. There's a ton of books out there, but you chose mine. That's kind of amazing. Thank you for that. Thank you! ♥
