Double Cross
Coming up… and it's so damn good. I wonder if book 3 is done yet…must go bug Carolyn more…
(part of a series… read the first book before this one…but so good) Not due out yet-about 2 weeks, so you have time to buy book 1, read book 1, and get antsy for this one. See? I timed it perfectly.
SOME SECRETS COME BACK TO HAUNT.
OTHERS COME TO KILL…
Justine Jones has lived her life as a fearful hypochondriac until she's lured into the web of a mysterious mastermind named Packard. He gifts her with ...

Death Blows by DD Barant
I love this book.
Loved it. And damn it… I'm stuck waiting until December for book 3.
(this is a series… some books work okay out of order-I don't need to read in order, but these will work better that way, I think-the first one is Dying Bites)
The series is based on the idea that there are alternate worlds and an FBI profiler got pulled from our world into one where humans make up 1% of the population and golems, vamps and lycanthropes make up the other 99%. Awesome, awesome books…

About 9/11

This was going to just be an 'In Memory' post, but some of the things I'm seeing on the news, online this week have bothered me deeply and I can't keep silent about it. FYI, I'm out of town today and because I don't want to run the risk of a few trolls turning this ugly-comments are turned off since I won't be around to monitor things.
I generally don't discuss things of religion or faith on this blog. I make no secret of the fact that I'm a Christian-I...

On Dragons… specifically, DragonCon
So I did my first Dragoncon this year. Even got to speak on one a panel, and be still my heart… Josepha Sherman was on it. Now some of you know I have a mad love for certain authors…one of them would be Mercedes Lackey and some of my favorite books are the books she co-authored with Josepha Sherman.
Let me tell you, when I saw who she was, I literally had to just stand there and get a grip before I introduced myself. Otherwise, all I would have managed was mad, insane babbling. Authors...

Guest blogging… Zoe Archer
We have a guest blogger today… the awesome and lovely Zoe Archer…(and her book rocks, BTW)
Looking around my office, you would find the following:
Desk
Computer
Filing cabinet
My husband (we're both writers and share the office)
Overstuffed bookcases
Weird gray cat
Printer
Elliptical trainer
Fairly ordinary stuff, though I would argue convincingly that my husband is most assuredly not ordinary, and my cat is an uncanny creature from an alternate dimension. Largely, though, it's a perfectly...

Assassin's Heart by Monica Burns
The laser hit his skin again from his ear down to his jaw. The pain pulled a pitched scream of agonized terror from him, and he fell backward into a black pool of nothingness—his last thought was of Ancient Rome and Phaedra running to meet him. He was home again.
He had no idea how long he'd been out, but ...
