It’s
been a crazy few weeks – what else is new? For those who know me well, the
annual July 4th celebration went off with mostly no hitches and was
a rousing success. I enjoyed catching up with those I don’t see often, but who
are very dear to me. Wish I had the stamina to do it more often!
In
any case, that’s not all the news I have to share. Warrior’s Wrath, book two in
the Warrior’s trilogy, has been officially accepted by Pink Flamingo. I’m very
excited about this story, as I once again get to revisit characters I have
written before and adore. Warrior’s Wrath is about Rowan Langley, Marissa’s
brother from Warrior’s Vengeance. Rowan discovers something about himself at
the very beginning that makes him question who he really is and his anger at
those who have betrayed him affects everything he does. When he encounters
Aeron, a thief who stole his coin, he decides to take her as his slave for
repayment of the debt. Yet when he learns Aeron is fleeing a murder charge, he
finds himself feeling a very different set of emotions. Aeron, on the other
hand, is irresistibly drawn to the man holding her captive, despite his harsh
treatment. Throw in Rowan’s best friend, who takes a much kinder approach, and
Aeron is caught up in their wicked ways and finds herself losing her heart to
them.
I’m
hard at work on book three in this trilogy too. Warrior’s Possession is more of
a prequel to the previous two books, as it tells the story of Gillian and Royce
Langley, two characters I brought to life nearly twenty years ago. I’ve
re-written the book extensively, and have also come to discover that Royce’s
already dominant personality is perfectly suited to the changes I’ve made. I
can’t wait to finish that and send it off. I’ve really enjoyed writing in this
time period and I definitely have plans to visit it again in the future.
Additionally,
the third Marchand book, Regine’s story, has been accepted by Sizzler Editions.
I am STILL lost as to a title for this one, but I’m sure I’ll figure one out well
before the release. Regine is a domme, but encounters a man who makes her want
to submit. It throws her whole sense of self into turmoil, but what fun it was
to write her story and have her discover new things about herself. Being an
Enchantress from a powerful magical family has given her a healthy dose of
pride and confidence that is shaken in many ways, and reinforced in others.
Cameron McIntyre is the perfect man for her, she just has to realize and accept
it. It’s a fun ride, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading their story as much as I
did writing it.
Summer
vacation has taken its toll on productivity, but the routine is settling now,
so I’m hoping to step up the pace again and get working on my Vikings tales.
Researching these books has been the most I’ve done on these stories so far, but
once Warrior’s Possession is complete, I should have enough to get started.
Until I find other things that need clarification, as is usually the case. The
toughest thing is getting the language/dialect down. I’m going to need to
re-watch Vikings from the History Channel to remind myself of a few things. I
don’t think I’m going to mind that!:)
Keep an eye out for further release information, and covers and the like - I'll share all that the moment I have it!
