This is a random Question, I was reflecting back on my time spent reading theOtherworld and and I realized that when we finally got the Savannah books that her relationship with her love interest ( I am being sensitive to anyone who has still yet to read)

The explicitness of my sex scenes depends on the character and how they’d tell it. I’ve always felt strongly about that–the character is the one telling the story and to have all the scenes (sex, action, etc) described in the same amount of detail would break that narrative wall, making it the author telling it rather than the character. Believe me, I had this “debate” with at least one editor, who wanted me to have an equal amount of sex (i.e. lots & explicit) in every book. If you look back to Haunted, you’ll see that Eve’s scene fades to black as fast–if not faster!

I am DYING waiting for Cainsville #4 to come out. Every few weeks I google around to see if any news have been released and I just eat that up and to my dismay I missed out on the chance to read the first pages of Betrayals!!!!!! I am now sad. Is there any

How about a kiss? Between unnamed characters…but you may be able to guess who it is :)

And then
she kissed him.

He would
later replay that moment—more times than it needed to be replayed—telling
himself he had to revisit it to be sure he hadn’t taken advantage of her
confusion. He had not. She kissed him. There was no doubt of that. There was
also, he would admit, no doubt that he kissed her back without even a
split-second of hesitation.

There
wasn’t even a thought of hesitation. Nor a thought of whether he should
kiss her back. It was like seeing her fall from the bridge and leaping after
her. She started, and he followed, and there was no other choice because that
kiss …

That kiss
…

That kiss
was a blazing fire in an ice storm. It was a clear running stream in a desert.
And yet it wasn’t quite that at all. It was finding something that you didn’t know
you wanted, didn’t know you needed, and then suddenly, it was there, and you
couldn’t believe you hadn’t been looking for it all along.

When will we get a sneak peek of The Forest of Ruin? Please & Thank You. I can't wait!

Ah, yet another thing that’s on the new-and-not-yet-live version of the site :) You can click here for the backdoor route to the first three chapters.

Hi there! I'm a new fan, having been recently introduced to your Otherworld series. I'm nearly done with it now, and I can't get enough! I went to your FAQ, and the link about whether or not you're truly done with it doesn't lead anywhere. Any chance you'l

Yeah, I updated it a while back…but the updated version is on my new site, which still hasn’t gone live! The Otherworld wraps up with a few final stories–the Driven novella, which came out earlier this year, and then a Paige/Lucas novella in the final collection, Otherworld Chills, coming this fall.

Since Driven is the last book in the Otherworld series does that mean we will never see a story about the twins when they're older, maybe in like 5+ years.

If there’s one thing that would bring me back, that’d be it :)

If a werewolf is paralyzed from the waist down would that mean when they change that their back legs would drag behind them or what would happen?

Yep, the rear legs would drag :)
