Halloween Countdown Day 12--HEART OF THE SERPENT
The Hades' Carnival series was intended to be 4 books, but after I wrote Howl of the Wolf I knew I wasn't done. I had to know what happened to the others, so I wrote 3 novellas to finish off the series.
Mordecai has been around since the very first book, but even I wasn't always quite sure where his loyalties lay. He's a very complex and fascinating character.
Heart of the Serpent Hades’ Carnival, Book 5
After being trapped in his animal form for centuries by a curse, freedom is new and almost uncomfortable for shape-shifting warrior Mordecai. He did his time in Hell, and it left a stain on his soul and strained his ties with his fellow warriors.
Jessica enjoyed the easy friendship she had with Mordecai, but he’s grown as distant as the stars lately. Still, it’s impossible to stay away from him, and she’s sure he feels that irresistible pull, too.
Mordecai knows Hades can’t get to him physically, but although he might try to deny it, he knows he has a weak spot. Jessica. Worried that Hades could hurt her to get to him, Mordecai’s tried to keep his distance, but there’s no stopping this kind of connection.

Halloween Countdown Day 11--HOWL OF THE WOLF
When I look back at this series, it might be the most diverse one I've ever written. Each book is truly unique where the shifter hero is a different animal. In turn, the heroines are equally unique. Arand is a wolf who is not about to let anyone hurt the woman who set him free from thousands of years of captivity.
Howl of the Wolf Hades’ Carnival, Book 4
Artist and tarot reader Sabrina can’t resist buying and bringing home the old carousel wolf she finds in an antique shop. She never imagined the wooden animal could come to life in her living room and shift into a dark, sexy man.
Arand is a cursed immortal warrior. He’s trapped until the touch of a particular woman frees him. After that, if he can stay alive for twenty four hours, his soul is safe from the Lord of the Underworld. But Hades will use all of his power to see both the warrior and his woman dead.
The unexplainable attraction between Arand and Sabrina won’t be denied, which means they have their hands full, since they’re also fighting for their lives and souls.

Halloween Countdown Day 9--MARK OF THE BEAR
While I love all my heroes, some of them are that little bit extra special, and Marko is definitely one of those.

When Marko is released from the curse that has kept him trapped in his animal form and lays eyes on Kellsie, he knows with every fiber of his being that his purpose is now to protect her no matter what.
