Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! 

I hope this holiday season brings you and yours great health and happiness!


For those who may have missed it, I shared a character interview on My Facebook Page and in My Books Group just for fun. In it, Todd (one of the human guards at the Network in my Immortal Guardians series) interviews Roland and Sarah (hero and heroine of Darkness Dawns) and learns the hazards of holiday shopping with an Immortal Guardian. I hope you'll enjoy it. ;-)

Have a wonderful day!

Immortal Guardians News & Giveaway

Happy Friday! I hope you are all safe and well this holiday season. I'm fighting off the flu, but still diligently and happily working on Seth's book, Immortal Guardians Book 9. We're having a very rainy, thunder-rumbly night tonight. So as soon as I post this, I'm going to dive back in and have more fun with Seth and his leading lady. I love to write when it rains! 


I have cool news to share: AudioFile Magazine awarded Awaken the Darkness the AudioFile Earphones Award. Woohoo!! Congratulations to lovely and talented narrator Kirsten Potter!!

"Over the course of the series, Potter has developed a cadre of secondary character voices with numerous accents that contribute to a memorable listening experience . . . Potter and Duvall are a winning combination."

Since it's still Friday as I write this... It's time for Favorite Quote Friday! I'm not ready to share any quotes from Seth's book yet, so I thought I'd share a favorite from Stanislav and Susan's story Awaken the Darkness. In this scene, Susan has just been hit with yet another of Stanislav's astonishing abilities, one that gave her quite a scare:

Taking a step forward, she held her arms out to him. "Come here."

She didn't have to ask him twice. Closing the distance between them, he wrapped his strong arms around her and squeezed her close, lifting her feet off the floor.

Susan slid her arms around his neck and held on tight.

"Please don't fear me," he uttered hoarsely, burying his face in her neck.

"I'll try," she promised, unwilling to lie and say she wouldn't. She doubted this would be the last thing about him that would freak her out. "Just give me time to adjust, okay?" Some of the things you can do may startle me, but—"

"I would never hurt you, Susan. I vow it."

She tightened her hold. "I know." Resting her head on his shoulder, she sighed. "I'm sorry I hurt you."

He shook his head. Several long moments passed while both calmed and just held each other. Every movement conveying his reluctance, Stanislav finally lowered her until her feet touched the floor, then stepped back.

Susan stared up at him, stunned all over again by his new size. "Wow," she declared with a grin, "you are freaking huge."

He laughed.

Reaching out, she gave one of his biceps an experimental squeeze, then poked the hard muscles of his chest. "I like it. You wear it well."

Smiling, he shook his head. "You're amazing."
