Assassin Core Edits
I got the first edits for the first in the new assassins series I'm working on. This series is a spin-off of the Assassins Trilogy and will feature some if not all of the characters from there.
I don't have a release date yet, but hopefully, it'll be sometime next month.
I've already made a few changes that I think make the book better. I still haven't finished book two in the series yet, but once I get back to it, I'll be writing at least two books in the series.
I have one more book in the Coyote Bound series for the current arc and then I'll decide after book 7 what direction to go in with the series.
I've been working on some material that I'm going to self-publish next year. The first of that is still going through final edits. It's the second book in the Sensation series.
That book appears to be the longest one I've written so far at nearly three hundred pages. Hopefully, there won't be a need to add more pages.
Enjoy your day, and many thanks to the fans who continue to support me. I enjoy hearing from you, and reading your reviews.

WIP Wednesday
Today on WIP Wednesday, I have a new post and excerpt from my current WIP.
I think I mentioned before that I was working on a new short contemporary series. I’ve conceived of three stories for the series and I’ll write a second series which I’ve already began creating.
The first one is more or less an introduction to the small Southern town. I introduce three women and the attitudes of the town. The books don’t involve much mystery, but the second set might involve some.

Boss's Babes
I have a new post on Boss's Babes this evening. We take a look at Cambrie and what makes her who she is.
Cambrie spent her youth in hiding after her parents were killed. I built the story around that and her tie to the coyotes of what would become Sam’s pack. I wanted to make this kind of connection rather than have to separate plots. I try to do that in all of the books so that the major part of the plot runs into the small threads of the beta’s past—the threads of her past lead her to the major plot point.
If you want to read the rest of the post click the link below.

Boss Babe Betas
This week I'm posting a series called Boss Babe Betas. This are characters from the Coyote Bound Series. I'm attempting to try something new with my series books.
Today's excerpt is from Getting Nawty With the Coyote.
What's a boss babe beta? Well, it's a beta who can run the show like an dominant--with fearless attitude and strength to push on when the going gets tough. She isn't even afraid to feel her feelings or cry.
The three ladies I've selected are Kamari, Cambrie and Kyra. All coyote ladies in honor of the recent release of Coyote Bound 5.
Kamari's style is that of a woman who's unashamed of her body, friendly and willing to do her job. She likes to dress in clothes that will get her noticed without over doing it. She's also compassionate with a thing for helping the underdog.
The scene I selected for today shows Kamari's willingness to comfort a woman she didn't know. That she was about to call for help rather than run out of fear shows her abiity to take charge, like a boss.

If You Only Knew
This is a book by Jea Hawkins that I recently read. I vowed to do more reviews of the books I read, but I'm still managing to fall behind.

WIP Wednesday
It's WIP Wednesday. I've been pretty busy but I've got some writing done.
Coyote Bound 6 has a tentative release date for October. I've been working on something new. I don't know how it will turn out. Three shorts all contemporary romance. We'll see where they go.
From there it's back to Coyote Bound to finish up this arc before heading back to the world of assassins where I'll stay for a bit.
Check here for the excerpt from the first in the short trilogy.

Sunday Seduction
I added a new excerpt from Claiming a Beta Coyote to my site today. This was a fun story for me to write. Kyra is a bit secretive because of her past so she doesn't share everything right up front.
She's deliberately irritating or uncooperative at times which creates tension between her and Claudia. I think the tension between them sizzles though. My personal opinion.
The excerpt was short. Enjoy.
“Yes.” Kyra nodded. “A real fling could be all kinds of bad.”
“Yeah.” Claudia turned Kyra to face her. “The kind that leave you too tired to focus from staying up all night just staring into each other’s eyes or talking. The kind that has us thinking of each other when we should be working. The kind that leaves a mark when the goodbyes are all said.”
“Exactly what we don’t need,” Kyra said, her hands shaking as she raised them to rest on Claudia’s arms. “It’s a mistake waiting to be regretted.”
“Maybe,” Claudia said, drawing her closer. “But I’m willing to take the risk as long as I’m the one you don’t cross in the long run.”
“Cross?” Kyra’s eyes drifted to Claudia’s mouth.
“Fuck over.” She lowered her head so their lips were mere inches apart. “Left with her ass in the wind.”
Kyra glided her hands up to Claudia’s shoulders. “So, you’re asking for promises?”
“Just that one,” she admitted, her lips against Kyra’s as she spoke.
Kyra shivered, the warm breath of Claudia teasing her skin. “What about me? What do I get out of this?”
“The same thing you give me,” Claudia told her. “A safe place to be who you are when we’re alone. Someone who’ll keep your secrets and still respect you in the harsh light of day. I just want the same.”
“You’re asking for a lot from a fling.”
“Just enough,” Claudia murmured, hunger blazing in her eyes. Then she claimed Kyra’s mouth.

Release Day
Today is Release Day for Claiming a Beta Coyote. I enjoyed writing this story and I've finished Coyote Bound 6. Here is a brief excerpt of Claiming a Beta Coyote.
Kyra watched the woman go. She knew who she was, but Kyra doubted the mayor of Snowbury knew who she was without her black leather mask and the distinctive perfume she used to hide her very subtle but true scent.
She couldn’t help wondering what Claudia was doing this far from town in what was fast becoming jackal-wolf country.
She had had a meet with a jackal who was on his way out of town before his boss went down for running drugs. He was certain it wouldn’t happen with Dillinger dead, but he wasn’t taking chances.
If Kyra was smart, she’d be jumping ship, too, instead of allowing her emotions and an imagined debt to Dillinger to keep her on the case. His replacement, Ava, had taken over in Dillinger’s death, but she was giving every impression that capturing Dill’s murderer and Russo was on the back burner while she got her kid out of town to someplace safe.
Ava was digging in for the long haul and had asked her to stay the course with her. Kyra knew she had some issues with the Russos and stakes were even higher for her than they had been for Dillinger.
“You don’t seriously think a woman can satisfy you,” the golden-skinned man said cutting into her reverie. His tone was filled with disgust.
Kyra threw him a look, dark heat already swelling inside her. What was it with the men in this bar? Did none of them realize she wasn’t interested?
“And what do you think you have that the other guy doesn’t?” she asked icily and flicked a gaze to first man who’d approached and back at him.
