Birds of Prey: Shifter Chronicles Book 1
The first book in the brand new Shifter Chronicles is out and making its way through online book stores and print venues. Yes, you can get your hands on this new novel in wither EBook form or print volume.
My first full length novel and the very first story that I have had come out at once in both formats has been very exciting. The feedback so far has been good and I can't tell you how thrilled I am.
In the past my stories have always been shared in short stories and novellas. And I noticed, yes I do read reviews, that readers wanted more. Wanted longer. So did I.
In discussing possible new work with my editor and publisher I shared what I wanted to accomplish with my Chronicles and we set to work.
Now that the first book in the series has been released I am hard at work to continue the story line. Each book will have a new and exciting main character but you will still get visits from your favorites. They are after all the very best of friends and must do their best to protect and defend the shifters of the world.
In Birds of Prey we meet Cody and Aubrey. You may remember Cody from book nine of the Were Chronicles: Pack Council. Cody was one of the shifters that saved Colt from the Church for Humanity.
Cody has been offered a job with the newly organized Shifter Coaliation. And the fun has only just begun!
Here is a little more about BIrds of Prey from the book blurb:
Mystery and love, murder and desire… It’s going to be a rough week for the agents of the Birds of Prey shifter division.
Cody Johnson has returned to his hometown as the division leader of the Birds of Prey for the Shifter Coalition. After the local cast leader is killed, Cody finds himself deeply involved in an investigation he can’t find any reason for. To make things worse, he runs into Aubrey Reynolds, the woman he left behind once before… And never got over. The longer the investigation continues, the more Cody struggles to separate his professional and private life. But Aubrey refuses to stay out of his case and his thoughts.
Aubrey has lost her Cast leader—her uncle—and has just seen the man who broke her heart. Feeling her world shattering around her, she tries to gain control of anything she can. As a security expert, she is determined to find out who is responsible for Gregory’s death and make them pay. If her inquiries put her directly in Cody’s path and piss him off, well, that’s something he’ll have to deal with. She’s shocked by how he handles it and unsure how she ends up back in his arms.
With a murderer running around taking out bird shifters, Cody must solve his case fast, especially once he realises that Aubrey may be next on the killer’s list. Now that he finds he is still in love with her, he won’t let her go again.

New Year New Goals

GOODBYE 2010 AND ALL THE WONDERFUL THINGS THAT CAME AND HELLO 2011 WITH IT'S AWESOME OPPORTUNITIES!!!
Looking back as we say goodbye to 2010 I have to admit my third year in publishing still has me feeling like a newbie but I love every minute of it.
With 2010 we saw the release of the third book in Th Were Chronicles- Pack territory, a lust bites release-Bid High, the audio and single release for Magical Menage, and last but not least the sequel to my very first release- Fated Love.
With more going on like moving into a new house and huge changes in my day time job I wasn't able to work as hard as I would have wanted when it comes to submitting manuscripts. And I only want to put out what I would read and not let anyone who enjoys my books down so I concentrated on getting out (what I think) were still good books and moved the series they belong to in a good direction or were strong single releases.
Now that I have been able to settle back down I am so excited about what 2011 has in store.
2011- starts out with a bang. The first four months will have a book release through Total-E-Bound!
January 17,2011 will launch the fourth book in the Were Chronicles series- Pack Rogue.
We met Rogue Kiley and Alpha Austin in an exciting addition to the series.
February 21,2011 gives us the next installment of The Corporate wolves Series- Losing Control.
The second book in the series follows three destines mates as they find the balance between love and lust.
March 14,2011 introduces us to a brand new series- secrets.
The first book The Shifter and the Dreamer will take the reader through the struggles of an FBI agent and his runaway partner now Sheriff in a small town.
April 11,2011 will be the release of a single novel- Vamps in the City.
In this book we dive into the world of vampires and their fight against good and evil.
That's just the beginning. I hope to have at least a couple more releases to add to the 2011 schedule.
So as 2010 passes by we can look back with fond memories and forward with excitement on what the new year will bring.
So HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EACH AND EVERYONE!!! I wish the best year of all of you.

Pack Territory Blurb-
Book three in the Were Chronicles SeriesAdam White is the new Alpha in his territory but Tasha Johnson may the one in charge.
As new Alpha of his territory, Adam White has his hands full. He must make the transition to his new role as smooth as possible, which is easier said than done. His father's mental state is worrisome, a teenage girl has run away, and the woman of his dreams is helping with the search.
Tasha knows the last thing the new Alpha needs is to look for her missing sister. Desperate, she goes to him and asks for his help anyway. As they leave their territory behind and travel to the city, she has more than just her runaway sister on her mind. Adam has taken a hold of her thoughts and fantasies.With so much happening around them, can two fated mates find one another and leave the world behind? If only for a few stolen erotic moments.Reader Advisory: This book is best read in sequence as part of a series.
Pack Territory Excerpt-
Adam White stretched his arms out as he walked up the back steps to his house. The late night run in his other form had done a remarkable job of relaxing him.
Opening the sliding glass door to enter the house, Adam took a deep breath and sensed the interior. His sister Laura was in the kitchen baking for the family and other guests who were sure to stop in. He smiled at the smell of cakes and cookies. His sister always cooked enough food for an army, and his mouth watered in anticipation.
He calmly took another breath and found the man he was searching for. His father and former Pack Alpha was in his room. Adam wasn’t surprised. Christian spent all of his time either in his room or in his other form. Adam had tried to talk to him, to bring him out of the depression, but nothing he said or did helped.
Three months before, one of the young females of the Pack had been attacked. Mindy hadn’t been the first or the only girl, but she was the only one from their Pack. Christian had to live with the knowledge that he hadn’t been able to protect a Pack member.
Adam, Laura, and many Pack members—even other Alphas—had told Christian it wasn’t his fault, but he continued to blame himself. The only person who seemed to be able reach him at all was his friend, Logan.
Logan had been staying at the house and talking with Christian daily, slowly bringing him back. But when Logan’s Alpha, Gage, had found out that his mate was pregnant, Logan had to leave and return to his own territory. As expected, Gage’s Pack was in high alert to make certain nothing happened to the Alpha’s mate or child. Adam could understand the need, but he selfishly wished Logan could have stayed longer.
Adam headed to his office. For now, at least, his father was alive. Adam just needed to make sure he remained that way. It wasn’t unusual for shifters to want to end their existence after a tragedy. Living for so long and witnessing so much affected each of them.
Opening the door to the Alpha’s office, Adam stepped inside and flipped on the light. He had taken his new position only two months before and hadn’t changed anything in the office or the house. He didn’t know if he ever would.
The council, made up of former Alphas who policed the Packs, had given their blessing for him to take over the Pack, but Adam still had doubts whether he was ready. It was a huge responsibility and he didn’t want to disappoint anyone, especially his father. The fact that he still needed to appoint his second-in-command weighed heavy on his mind.
He’d thought long and hard about who would be good for the position. Every Alpha picked his own man to watch his back. His father’s man had stayed when Adam took over, but Adam knew he was more than ready to retire.
As he reached the desk, he turned on the computer and waited for it to boot up. As he sat, there was a knock on the door. He tried not to be annoyed at the interruption, but it was hard. He’d been hoping to have a little time to himself at the late hour. He wanted to finish going through the applications for his Enforcer. He had put it off long enough.
BOOK REVIEW MONDAY-
Book reviewed- The Matter of Time 1-4 by Mary Calmes
Book Blurb- Book 1:
Jory Keyes spends his time drinking and cruising gay bars picking up one night stands. Then suddenly he becomes the only witness to a brutal murder. Although the killer vows to silence him, Jory refuses to go into witness protection. This puts him into conflict with Sam Kage, a very straight and very hot police detective. When passion flares between the two men, Sam is astonished. Is he really gay? And if so, what will this mean to his career, and his life? As the danger threatening Jory increases, Sam senses that nothing is as it seems, and wonders who is really after his newfound and forbidden love?
Book 2: Jory Keyes is doing his best to get over Detective Sam Kage, who broke his heart. Fearful of coming out of the closet, Sam intended to marry and uphold the status quo. After testifying against the man he saw commit cold-blooded murder, Jory is sure he and the detective will never cross paths again. But fate has other plans. Between Sam’s job and Jory being openly gay and on the run from hired killers, the path to true love has never been rockier. When Jory is kidnapped, the culprit is someone no one ever suspected.
Book 3: Three years have passed since Jory Keyes was kidnapped, shot, and left by his lover, Detective Sam Kage. Jory walked through fire and came out the other side stronger. He changed his name to Harcourt and shut the door forever on a past full of pain. Jory now owns his own business, and has a life he enjoys. What he doesn’t have is love. He’s been unable to make that deep connection with another man, the kind of connection he’s only had with Sam. When a chance encounter brings Sam back into his life, Jory doesn’t know what to do. But for Sam there’s no hesitation. He wants Jory back and this time he wants him for keeps. When Sam is called away to a crime scene in the middle of the night, Jory realizes that his fear has nothing to do with being emotionally vulnerable. Why, he wonders, is he so damned uneasy?
Book 4: Jory Harcourt is back in trouble. An old threat has shown up, and soon Jory is running from a madman who’ll do anything to see him dead. When Jory is kidnapped it soon becomes clear he is up against something bigger than he ever imagined. Sam Kage, the police detective he loves, is caught in the crossfire, and ends up fighting for his life in a hospital bed. Jory springs into action, and goes on the defensive to catch a serial killer. The trail leads from his home in Chicago to Dallas and back. More resourceful than anyone imagined, Jory cracks the case, or does he? And can his love affair with Sam withstand the pressure?
My Rating: 4.5/ 5
My thoughts- What a wonderful four story series! I instantly fell in love with Jory, want my own Sam, and could see myself with Dane. Each and every character in just what you want to read about. The interaction between the characters along with their friends pulls you in from the start and doesn’t let go.
I found these books from the author site and went over to ARE and bought the first book. It wasn’t long before I got the others and couldn’t stop reading. I love that these are longer books than most out there. It took me a full week to read the four books. I never got bored! I laughed and I cried. I screamed at Jory and Sam and my heart broke and then swelled. These are guys that once they make it to your heart will not let go.
I thoroughly enjoyed these books. Didn’t have the end figured out, was delighted with the outcome, and can’t wait for more from this author.
This is a must read!
Book reviewed- Sticks and Stones by Madeleine Urban & Abigail Roux
Book Blurb- Cut & Run Series Book Two - Sequel to Cut & RunSix months after nearly losing their lives to a serial killer in New York City, FBI Special Agents Ty Grady and Zane Garrett are suffering through something almost as frightening: the monotony of desk duty. When they're ordered to take a vacation for the good of everyone's sanity, Ty bites the bullet and takes Zane home with him to West Virginia, hoping the peace and quiet of the mountains will give them the chance to explore the explosive attraction they’ve so far been unable to reconcile with their professional partnership.Ty and Zane, along with Ty’s father and brother, head up into the Appalachian mountains for a nice, relaxing hike deep into the woods... where no one will hear them scream. They find themselves facing danger from all directions: unpredictable weather, the unrelenting mountains, wild animals, fellow hikers with nothing to lose, and the most terrifying challenge of all. Each other.
My Rating- 4.25/ 5
My thoughts- The sequel to Cut & Run.
This book started months after Cut & Run finished. Ty and Zane may have recovered from the psychical from their last assignment but not mentally. As their boss forces them to take a vacation. None of them knew what would happen.
The travel to Ty’s family in West Virginia. I love Ty’s family. Great humor in the scenes with the family. They go up the mountain and let me tell you it was one emotional ride. So much happens so fast that you just can’t stop reading. I didn’t want to take a break but the length of the book demanded it.
This book was worth every dollar and I am waiting for the next book, which according to the author’s blog is in the works.
Great book. Read the first book Cut & Run first to get the full enjoyment.
