A lot of audiobook lovers have been asking when The Segonian will release and how soon they can pre-order it on Audible. Well, I have great news. The audiobook will release the same day as the ebook and paperback: January 19th.My utterly awesome narrator Kirsten Potter began recording it this week. And I'm very happy to share that she told me she loved the story. I also learned that it should go up for pre-order on Audible this month.

But the good news doesn't stop there. The Lasaran has been burning up the Audible Bestseller lists. It hit #1 on Audible's Movers & Shakers Bestseller List, climbed to #2 on the Audible Bestseller List—All Categories, and has been an Audible Top 5 Science Fiction Romance Bestseller since April.  :-)

It's time once more for Favorite Quote Friday! Today I'm very excited to give you a peek into the pages of The Segonian (the second stand-alone novel in my exciting new Aldebarian Alliance series) that features Dagon and Eliana, the hero and heroine:

_________________________________

No one waited in line at the counter, thanks to Dagon and Eliana’s tardy entry.

“Morning, Kusgan,” she trilled when the elder Segonian stepped up to the counter.
 
Kusgan greeted her with a wide smile. “And how are you today, ni’má?”
 
“Hungry,” she declared. “What do you have for me? Something spicy, I hope?”
 
“Indeed.” When Kusgan turned his attention to Dagon, his eyes sparkled with amusement as though he had guessed just how and with whom she had worked up an appetite. “And for you, Commander?”
 
“The usual.”
 
His lips twitched. “A larger portion perhaps?”
 
Dagon laughed. “I would appreciate that, yes.”
 
Heat crept up her neck to her cheeks. As Kusgan turned away and headed into the kitchen, she leaned closer to Dagon and whispered, “Am I blushing? Because I feel like he’s guessed why I’m so hungry and you’re all smiles this morning.”
 
He regarded her cheeks with a grin. “Yes, you’re blushing.”
 
Groaning, she brought her hands up to cover her face. “Curse my pale skin,” she grumbled. “It won’t let me hide anything.”
 
“Would it make you feel better if Iblushed?”
 
She peeked up at him through her fingers. And as she watched, his cheeks flushed a vivid pink, demonstrating anew his ability to change his coloring at will.
 
Laughing in delight, she dropped her hands. “Yes!” Then she poked him in the chest as the heat in her own cheeks faded. “I dare you to walk around like that all day.”
 
Smiling, he abandoned the pink camouflage and let his face return to its natural color. “If I did, the men would get no work done because they’d all be too busy wondering what the srulyou did in bed that left me blushing for hours afterward.”
 
Eyes widening, she laughed. “You’re right. Don’t do it.”

I had so much fun with these characters. I hope they'll make you laugh as much as they did me. If you missed the excerpt I included at the end of The Lasaran (Aldebarian Alliance Book 1), you can find it on my website. I love the responses it has been getting. :-) 

This weekend I intend to dive into the next book in my Immortal Guardians series. I hope you'll have a wonderful weekend.

Take care and happy reading!
