Coming June 30: BLOODSTAINS AND BITEMARKS
Coming June 30: BLOODSTAINS AND BITEMARKS
You can learn a lot about a person by how they react in the moments before their inevitable death. Some tighten their lips to face the great unknown with dignified silence. Others curse God, their fate, or their killer. The result is the same. A tiny gasp of air escapes their lips as the life in their eyes fades away. Murder isn’t the addiction I expected to wind up hooked on. In another life, I…

Six-Line Sunday: Bitemarks and Bloodstains
This is how I die. My fantasies of avenging my mother’s death led me right into the hands of the monster who killed her.
Zeke warned me hunters don’t get happy endings, but I refused to listen. I never planned to stay with the Dark Hunt forever. I promised myself as soon as I killed Kane, I’d say my farewells and move on. I hadn’t put much thought into where I’d go next, but I always imagined…

Deleted Scene: Bloodstains and Bitemarks
Welcome back, darling deviants! 
I have a strange love/hate relationship with the deleted scenes from my books. It’s fun to find them saved on my computer months later. They’re great inspiration for future scenes or stories. Still, even after deleting countless chapters (and sometimes full stories!), I’m always a bit sad when I’m forced to cut things from my drafts. Cuts and revisions are a…

The Ten Best Witches in Fantasy Fiction
The Ten Best Witches in Fantasy Fiction
Greetings, darling deviants! 
Confession time. I spent a few years longer than I’d like to admit waiting for my letter from Hogwarts to arrive. After finishing every book in the Harry Potter series, I combed the library for every witchy book I could find. If a story involved magic or witchcraft, I wanted to read it. 
Witches are still one of my favorite tropes in fantasy fiction. It’s…

Ten Weird Facts About Kyra Quinn
Ten Weird Facts About Kyra Quinn
Greetings darling deviants!  Fun fact: I suck at talking about ‘me.’ Talking about my stories or characters, sure. Politics, religion, literature, or philosophy? All fair game. But I always feel a little awkward sharing anything about myself. I’m never sure where to start or what to say, or who’d care to read it. 
But the questions and messages I’ve gotten through social media and email suggest…

9 Best Angel/Demon Romances in Fiction
9 Best Angel/Demon Romances in Fiction
If you’ve spent any time on the paranormal or urban fantasy book sections of Amazon, you’ve probably noticed that stories about angels and demons are never in short supply. I like to think of angels and demons as universal tropes—in almost every religion and culture, there’s some mythical symbol of “evil” or temptation, and another symbolizing protection and “good.” 
Personally, I’m a total…

Ten Favorite Fictional Romances
Ten Favorite Fictional Romances
Welcome back, darling deviants! Valentine’s Day is behind us, but love is still in the air. It’s not my favorite holiday (Halloween, anyone?!), but I never pass up on an excuse to drink wine, eat chocolates, and indulge my more sensitive side. I’m an ice queen. But that never stops me from falling for fictional couples with unrealistic (okay, and maybe slightly unhealthy) love stories. In the…

Greetings, darlings of darkness! This week’s six-line Sunday is from Bloodstains and Bitemarks, book one in the Unholy Wars trilogy. I’ll do a cover reveal sometime this month, but here’s an early peek inside.
My mind drifts back to Sundays spent in church listening to my father preach. He always warned his congregation not to expect horns and pitchforks from demons. Evil, he said, appears…

Deliciously Dark Paranormal Romance Novels to Read This Valentine's Day
Deliciously Dark Paranormal Romance Novels to Read This Valentine’s Day
Greetings, darling deviants! With Valentine’s Day around the corner, I’ve found myself in the mood for dark and dangerous romances. I swore my allegiance to monsters years ago. Prince Charming never captured my attention in the same way as Belle’s Beast. I’m a sucker for stories where the girl falls for–and eventually redeems–someone more monster than man. 
For this week’s collection of…

Whisper Me Lies: Coming Spring 2020!
Greetings, darling deviants! I am SO excited to share a little bit about my latest projects with you. If you’ve read any of my other books, you’ve probably caught on to my current obsession with angels and demons. That fixation continues in THE UNHOLY WARS trilogy.

Quick Fire Fantasy Book Tag
Quick Fire Fantasy Book Tag
If you follow me on social media, you know how much I love games. If you follow me anywhere, it’s probably also obvious fantasy is one of my favorite genres. My brain is also fried from how many words I’ve written for my latest fantasy series. So when I stumbled upon this tag game over on @WorldsUnlikeOurOwn, I had to jump in and play. This tag was created by Jo @ The Bookworm Dreamer.
