What happens when a vampire and a tiger meet? Grab your copy of Need (Vampire Beloved Book Two) to find out!

It’s hard to believe that October is nearly over, but I’m so excited that I get to share the next book in the Vampire Beloved series. Need features vampire Cella, who first appeared in the Wiccan-Were-Bear book, A Slash of Savagery (with the ultra-sexy Brone!). I knew when I met her in that story that I’d eventually want her to have a story of her own, and she finally got one after a very long wait! I hope you enjoy her story! I have a TON of books planned for this series, and I’m already halfway through book three!

Vampire Cella has been around for a few hundred years, and she’s never made a mistake quite as large as attempting to take a human male as her private food source. On the surface, Quaid was the right fit for her, but once he got settled it was clear the only reason he wanted to be with her was so she could turn him into a vampire. After kicking him to the curb, she wondered if she’ll ever be lucky enough to find her beloved mate, the one male on the planet meant for her.

Tiger shifter Cyrus Abrams hasn’t had the best of luck when it comes to females, but he’s not given up hope. Somewhere out there is his truemate and their paths will cross eventually. When he’s tasked by his king to head up a construction crew at the vampire restaurant in downtown Cleveland, he sensed a presence that drives his cat wild. The source? A stunning blonde vampire with curves for days. He never expected his truemate to be a vampire, but he’s never needed anyone more.

The coven isn’t as safe as it used to be, thanks in part to a dangerous anti-vampire group known as The First Church of Humanity. They’ve been trying for years to get rid of the vampires in Mishka’s coven, and they’ll do anything to destroy every last one. When the restaurant is attacked while Cyrus is working, Cella races to find her beloved. Can she save him, or will her only chance at love turn to dust?

~*~ Upcoming News ~*~

Now that we’re coming into the last stretch of 2019, I’ve got two more books coming your way.  Having Hope (Ashland Pride 11), the final story for the series, is available for preorder and will hit the virtual bookshelves on November 4.  And the next book in the Were Zoo series – Tayme – will be coming to you November 25 and should be up for preorder later this week.  I’m hard at work on the next Vampire Beloved book, a new secret new series I’ll be revealing in the future, and another Were Zoo book.

~*~ Blog Subscriber’s Sneak Peek! ~*~

And then he saw her.

Long, blond hair. Curves like a goddess, deserving of worship. Fangs peeking from her parted, ruby lips.

He froze in place, inhaling deeply and filtering through the scents in the room until he was certain his cat was fully interested in the blonde. Their gazes collided, holding for what felt like an eternity, until his cat urged him forward. Stalking toward her, he stopped just inches away and curled his hands into tight fists to stop from grabbing her.

Her chest heaved as she panted for breath, her body strung as tightly as his was.

He was holding onto his sanity by a thread, but he wasn’t the sort of male who simply put his hands on a female without asking permission.

“You’re…” he started, clearing his throat as his voice cracked and his cat rumbled out a loud purr. “I’m Cyrus.”

The female’s eyes darkened, and she licked her lips, her fangs gleaming in the overhead light. “I’m Cella.” She closed the short distance between them, staring up at him as her breasts rubbed his chest with each deep inhale. “I’ve been waiting for you, Cyrus.”

She rose onto her toes and brushed her lips over his.

“Mine?” In his head it was a statement, but his cat phrased it as a question. Was this female his? With her lips that made electricity flow through him and her scent like a rainstorm that made his brain short out?

“Yes, yes,” she said, breathing the words as she slid her hands up his arms, over his shoulders, and buried her fingers in his hair.

Their lips crashed together, his cat roaring in triumph as they parted, and their tongues touched in a sweet, slow slide. Her lush frame fit perfectly against him, and he wrapped his arms around her and lifted her from the floor. Without breaking the kiss, he moved her away from the others and toward a dark corner where he pressed her lightly against the wall. He cupped her face, brushing his thumbs over her soft skin and marveling at how amazing their first kiss was.

It’s finally almost time for the last book of the Ashland Pride series to hit the virtual bookstores!  Having Hope will be here November 4.  I’m both happy and sad for this story to come out, because it’s the last one for a favorite series of mine.  To think all the way back in 2012 when I wrote Callie & The Cats that a whole new world of shifters would be opened and I’d get to share them with you!  I love the mountain lions and I hope you do, too!  Below are the preorders links – you can grab Hope for a special price of $2.99 for the next week and then the price will go up to $3.99 so don’t delay!  XOXO RE

Having Hope (Ashland Pride #11) ~ Preorder Links:  

PreOrder:  Amazon US    Amazon UK    Apple Books    B&N    Kobo

Despite finally finding her truemates, Hope feels compelled to help the female mountain lions who were cursed by their goddess to never know love. When her one opportunity to set things right for her people fails, she believes that all’s lost, and the females will never know the joy of family and finding love. Will a phone call from an old friend of the pride help Hope to change the course of the females’ lives forever?

I’m so excited to share the newest addition to The Necklace Chronicles series – The Jaguar’s Bride!  I hope you enjoy this story as much as I enjoyed writing it!

The Jaguar’s Bride – Amazon US      Amazon UK      Apple Books      B&N      Kobo

Wanting to help her down-on-her-luck sister, witch Thea Greene plans to concoct a spell to help her find romantic happiness. The problem is that the one ingredient she doesn’t have is a flower that blooms solely during the full moon. There’s only one place the flower can be found, so she dons her hiking boots and heads out to locate it.

Jaguar shifter Savage Bayle is a marked male. Unable to secure a bride on his own, he’s now facing his people’s traditional Mate Hunt, which occurs during the full moon. As part of a matriarchal society, the females are the ones who chase the males during the Hunt, and any male caught must mate the female or face punishment. One female in his prowl has set her eyes on him – the cold, cruel daughter of the queen. The last thing he wants to do is spend the rest of his life mated to her. Hoping to ride out the Hunt and escape unmated, he heads into the woods with his fingers crossed to find a place to lay low until the Hunt is over at dawn.

When Thea follows an enticing smell deep into the woods, she stumbles into the arms of a gorgeous man. He purrs on contact, and the attraction between them is electric. One kiss and she wants to be his forever. But she’s not the only one laying a claim to the sexy Savage – the jaguar princess has one, too. Is their budding love enough to protect Thea, or will Savage lose her forever?

A hunted Jaguar.  A witch on a mission.  What happens when their lives collide in the woods on the full moon?

I’m so excited to share the preorder details for my next book:  The Jaguar’s Bride, Book 5 in the Necklace Chronicles series, is available now for the special preorder price of $1.99.  This price won’t last long, so be sure to take advantage of it!  I had the idea for the introduction for my main characters – Savage the jaguar and Thea the witch – when I pictured them stumbling upon each other in the woods and realizing they were mates.  I’ve also always wanted to name a character Savage!
