New Year's Giveaway & Update! Win Signed Paperbacks & more!

Giveaway up ahead!
But first ...
I just wanted to thank you all for sticking with me through 2016 and beyond. I love writing and I love having so many readers who I get to share my passion with. Without you, I would've never been able to do what I love most, which is writing. So thank you so much for reading my books! <3

The end of 2016, finally!
So this year has been a real rollercoaster for me. I wrote awesome books and had amazing sales ... but I was also forced to face the fact that I was not able to write as much as I would've liked to, because of my injury that I sustained in January.
See, left side was my leg last year, and right side is my leg now.
That scar is where the surgeon put in a metal plate and 8 screws in my leg (1 of them can't be seen on the scan, because it's much lower in my leg). I'll forever be a cyborg ... until I decide to let them take it out LOL! But I'm not sure I want that, because that would mean another 6+ months of physical therapy. :P

I fractured my Tibial Plateau, which is the top part of my shinbone and knee. It's one of the worst fractures you can have ... lucky me :P But I did recover well. It took about 5 months before I could stand up again on two feet, and about 9 months until I was fully able to walk. All of it was pretty painful and sometimes it still is, but I survived and I got stronger because of it. I learned what true independence and dependency is, because my fiancé was forced to do my bidding for months (I didn't mind, he did, haha!). Also, there is nothing that can beat standing up in a shower. Just saying.
I even wrote a book about my experience too, called RUIN. It's based on my story, but it's not a biography. I mixed fiction with reality to make it more exciting ... because my life is otherwise pretty boring :P haha.


The good stuff; What I did this year
This year I went to 3 signings. Yes, 3! First there was the Boston North Shore Author Signing, then there was RARE in Edinburgh, and finally Claddagh in Dublin. And they were all AMAZING!! I had so much fun meeting all these fabulous people, and the organizers were all so damn professional! Funny thing is, I actually went to Boston in a wheelchair ... because I couldn't walk yet. Crazy, because it was also my first time ever going to America haha. I'm nuts, I know.
Anyway ... I loved each and every one of the signings I went to, and I met so many amazing fans! I couldn't believe all the people that showed up just to take a picture with me & get something signed! :D Here are some pictures from the signings.

During my hospital stay I also published 2 audiobooks, Mr. X and Stalker, which are some of my older Dark Romance books, but still must-reads. ;) I'm working on the audiobook for Wicked Bride Games as we speak, and I promise I'll do more audiobooks in 2017. :)

I also published 4 full-length novels. The first being Ultimate Sin, a Dark Romance about a girl who is a complete slave to anyone who is willing to be her master. However, she gets sold to a Master with a devious past ... and a wish that could destroy her. I actually wrote this one halfway through December / January, so I'm not sure if it counts, but what the heck. :P I'm so glad I had already finished writing the book when my accident happened (Jan 9th). Funnily enough, this book performed so well! I was ecstatic. :D
Then came VIKTOR, which was a real struggle to write for me, because of the injury (I was stuck on the couch or bed 24/7), and because I just couldn't get into the 'sexy' mode that's required to write sex scenes. :P I think it has something to do with being crippled meaning I no longer felt sexy myself, and could therefor not imagine anyone else to be (let alone a fictional character). But still ... I think I managed to create quite a wonderful piece of work, rich with fantasy & playfulness. <3
My next book was Bad Teacher, which was really fun & easy to write, and I enjoyed it very much. It was just something fun and flirty that I needed to do in order to make myself happy again. It's a book that shouldn't be taken too seriously, as it's just a load of sex & fun. :P It was one of my most successful books.

Finally, I wrote something called Happy Forever After Darkness, which is a short novella for fans of Twenty-One, Stalker, Ultimate Sin, and Viktor where I brought all the characters back for an extended epilogue filled with sweet & sexy scenes, as well as a few secrets. ;)
I'm cheating a little bit here, because Ultimate Sin was already finished January 3rd, but I included it on the picture anyway. :P
I actually DID finish writing Wicked Bride Games back in early December, so it's all set to go live for January 10th! :D This is a book you really don't want to miss. It's about 9 women having to fight over 3 guys who want more than just sex ... I dub this book ... The Bachelor + Gone Girl = Murderporn. :D Make from that what you will, haha!

What's up for 2017?

Then I also have a new book planned in April/May with the male lead being a father ... that's about all I'm going to tell you right now.
Finally, I'm going to write 2 sequels to Bad Teacher (if I can manage to write an outline in time), publishing around July and September respectively. These are also going to be fun and flirty contemporary romance / romantic comedies.
This timeline still leaves room for a secret novella/book I was talking about earlier. I can't tell you jack-shit about this, sorry :P But I promise you, if I make it (because this schedule is insane), It'll blow your socks off.
