Inspiration
Here’s a couple of quotes I’ve kept in mind while writing this series.

Moonlit Waltz on Sale!

$.99 For a limited time only!
Once upon a time…
There was a girl, a boy and a dance. The girl shifted into a golden wolf and ran under the full moon. The boy was a prince with an obligation to his kingdom. And the dance was a moonlight ball for the prince to find his princess.
Josef and Ella have been in love since they were children, but it was doomed from the start. He is the last of the Gauthier line and the law of the goddess herself states a Gauthier must sit on the throne. Her blessing has assured it for hundreds of years. As shifting females can’t carry an infant to term, Ella is not a suitable match for her prince. They both try, and fail, to move on.
It is with a broken heart Prince Josef attends the ball. But there, under the light of the full moon, he dances a moonlit waltz and falls in love all over again. Perhaps there is hope after all.

Character Inspiration
As I work on Prophecy’s Child which will bring the Realm Walker series to a close, I thought it might be fun to do some behind the scenes stuff. I’m starting with the inspiration behind some of our favorite characters.
Juliana
Of course we have to start with everyone’s favorite Walker.
Juliana doesn’t look exactly like any of these images, but they give me the feeling for her. The second picture (which is Ashley Greene if you’re wondering) is pretty close. Juliana has emerald green eyes and black hair but the face shape is similar.
Thomas
Thomas Harrison Kendrick. Resident badass vampire and Juliana’s mate/husband.
Marton Csokas is pretty close to how I picture Thomas, only give him some pale blue eyes.
Michael
Michael Gabriel Bishop. Thomas’s second in command and one of Juliana’s closest friends.
Peter Facinelli – give him a shorter, messier hair cut and a more angular face shape and you’ve got Michael.
Hopefully you found that interesting. They’ll be more tidbits to come. What are you most looking forward to seeing resolved or finding out in Prophecy’s Child? Or, which character have you missed the most?

Hello Again
Hey all! I did not mean to disappear on you but it’s been a tough fall. My father passed away in September and I’ve been grieving since. This has thrown off my release schedule and I’m sorry about that.
My October release which was to be a short in the Whispered Tales series has been pushed back indefinitely. It’s definitely getting written, I just have to figure out where it’s going to fit into the schedule now. And since I have more time, I may be expanding it into a full novel.
The next release you see will be Prophecy’s Child, the fourth and final book in the Realm Walker series. Again, I had intended to have it out by the end of the year but that will not be happening. I assure you I have begun work on it and as soon as I have a release date I will let you know.
For those of you that haven’t picked up Moonlit Waltz because you aren’t sure if it’s your thing, it’s getting some really good reviews. Just saying.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding!

Pre-order Now Available!
Moonlight Waltz (Whispered Tales, Book 1) is now available for pre-order! I am so excited for this book and this series. I hope you guys will love it as much as I do.
Once upon a time…
In a land of human and lycan alike, there lived a beautiful girl named Ella. She was adored by her family and loved by a prince. But Ella was a shifter which meant she could never bear children and a prince must have heirs. She believed herself resolved to her fate until her father remarried and his new wife brought his non-shifting daughters to live with them.
Josef has loved Ella since he was twelve years old, but he has an obligation to his kingdom that she can never fulfill. Deciding his son has delayed the inevitable long enough, the king gives him three days to name a bride or one will be chosen for him. On the last day Ella stuns them all and suddenly the prince has hope. Will they find their happily ever after with the help of the goddess herself?

New Release and New Cover!!

Not everything that happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas…
Evangeline Stewart met the love of her life in Vegas when she was twenty-one. She thought he felt the same way, but when they woke in the morning he was married to her mother.
Nicholas Davis couldn’t fathom how he ended up married to Jackie when it was clearly Eve he wanted. A quick annulment remedied that mistake but his chances with the girl of his dreams were ruined.
Now it’s three years later and, on a dare from her ex-stepfather, Eve takes the chance she’s always wanted. But nothing is ever that simple and secrets thought long buried come to light. Will the truth finally tear them apart for good or will it make their bond stronger than ever?
Warning: This book contains dares, workplace shenanigans, and true love finally getting its chance. Don’t read if any of these things offend you.
This is not my usual release. This is a hot contemporary romance. Don’t read if that’s not your thing.
I’m also taking this opportunity to show off the cover for the first book in the Whispered Tales series. Isn’t it gorgeous??
