Halloween Countdown Day 9--FLAME OF THE PHOENIX

Immortal warrior, Phoenix, has met his match in the fiery Tilly Ledet.

Flame of the Phoenix

Hades’ Carnival, Book 6

 

Phoenix is afraid—a first for the immortal warrior. Beautiful, forthright Tilly Ledet fires his mind and body. She’s been helping Phoenix and his shape-shifting comrades in their battle against Hades, and now she is in danger and doesn’t think she needs his protection.

 

When Phoenix shows up insisting she drop everything to go into hiding with him, Tilly balks. Phoenix is gorgeous, courageous, and convincing, and he also does something to her heart… But he’s an immortal shape shifter, and she’s human, not to mention they also have Hades on their trail, so giving in to the heat between them could send them both up in flames.

Halloween Countdown Day 8--HEART OF THE SERPENT

 

I've never been as conflicted about a character as I was about Mordecai. Even I had no idea if he was a villian or hero until this book.

Heart of the Serpent

Hades’ Carnival, Book 5

 

After being trapped in his animal form for centuries by a curse, freedom is new and almost uncomfortable for shape-shifting warrior Mordecai. He did his time in Hell, and it left a stain on his soul and strained his ties with his fellow warriors.

Jessica enjoyed the easy friendship she had with Mordecai, but he’s grown as distant as the stars lately. Still, it’s impossible to stay away from him, and she’s sure he feels that irresistible pull, too.

Mordecai knows Hades can’t get to him physically, but although he might try to deny it, he knows he has a weak spot. Jessica. Worried that Hades could hurt her to get to him, Mordecai’s tried to keep his distance, but there’s no stopping this kind of connection.

Halloween Countdown Day 7--HOWL OF THE WOLF

What would a paranormal series about immortal warriors be without a wolf? You know I had to have one. HOWL OF THE WOLF, the 4th book in the Hades' Carnival series, takes place in New Orleans.

Howl of the Wolf

Hades’ Carnival, Book 4

 

Artist and tarot reader Sabrina can’t resist buying and bringing home the old carousel wolf she finds in an antique shop. She never imagined the wooden animal could come to life in her living room and shift into a dark, sexy man.

 

Arand is a cursed immortal warrior. He’s trapped until the touch of a particular woman frees him. After that, if he can stay alive for twenty four hours, his soul is safe from the Lord of the Underworld. But Hades will use all of his power to see both the warrior and his woman dead.

 

The unexplainable attraction between Arand and Sabrina won’t be denied, which means they have their hands full, since they’re also fighting for their lives and souls.

Halloween Countdown Day 6--PRIDE OF THE LION

 

PRIDE OF THE LION is the third book in the Hades' Carnival series. I had such fun writing about seven different shapeshifting immortal warriors. Like any lion, Leander isn't exactly happy with his new situation, but he's determined to win at all costs.

Pride of the Lion

Hades’ Carnival, Book 3

 

When Araminta Davidson is invited to participate in a readers’ appreciation weekend, she feels like she’s arrived as an author. But what starts out as a fun weekend quickly turns surreal and deadly when she accidentally releases a shape-shifting immortal warrior from a five-thousand-year-old curse.

 

Finally freed from the carousal he’s been trapped on, Leander denies Hades and vows to beat the second part of the curse and find a way to free his comrades. The woman who released him calls to his animal nature, and he realizes she’s his mate. But is she as innocent as she seems, or was she sent by Hades? The clock is ticking, but not fast enough. If he can stay alive and evade Hades for twenty-four hours, he might be able to figure it out.

Halloween Countdown Day 5--MARK OF THE BEAR

Day 5 of the Halloween Countdown is MARK OF THE BEAR, the second book in the Hades' Carnival series. I love Marco. He's a grumpy bear, but a determined immortal warrior.

Mark of the Bear

Hades’ Carnival, Book 2

 

Kellsie Morris knows her career as a Hollywood scream queen won’t last forever. Luckily, she’s just landed a big role in a movie about an immortal, shape-shifting warrior trapped in a carnival run by the Devil’s minions. When the carousel bear on set shifts into a flesh and bone bear of a man, Kellsie starts to question reality.

 

When Marko is released from the curse that has kept him trapped in his animal form and lays eyes on Kellsie, he knows with every fiber of his being that his purpose is now to protect her no matter what.

 

But there’s no predicting the Devil’s next move in this game. Hades is determined to get his revenge on the escaped warrior, and going after Marko’s mate is seems like the perfect plan.

HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN Day 4--Night of the Tiger

 Welcome to Day 4 of the Countdown to Halloween!

Welcome to Hades’ Carnival, where a group of immortal shapeshifting warriors are imprisoned in their animal forms on a carousel.

 

Cursed by the very goddess they served—The Lady of the Beasts—in order to keep them out of Hell, now the warriors are being offered a chance at freedom and redemption. And it will take a very special woman to free each warrior.

 

Once free, they must stay alive for 24 hours if they want to save themselves from Hades once and for all.

  

Night of the Tiger

Hades’ Carnival, Book 1

 

Five thousand years ago, in order to be saved from the horrors of Hell, shapeshifting warrior Roric was imprisoned in his animal form on a carousel. Only one woman’s touch can release him. After that, all he has to do is stay alive for twenty-hours, and his soul is safe from Hades for all eternity. But is the woman who sets him free a distraction sent by Hades?

 

When graphic novel illustrator Aimee Horner visits a traveling carnival, she’s drawn to an abandoned carousel and its carved white tiger. One touch of her skin against the massive beast, and Aimee’s world is changed forever.

 

The ancient curse is broken, and Hades and his demons are out for blood…and Roric’s and Aimee’s souls.

HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN Day 3--Love in Flames

Day 3 of the Countdown to Halloween is LOVE IN FLAMES, the third and final book in the Spells, Secrets, and Seductions series.

Love in Flames

Spells, Secrets & Seductions, Book 3

 

A spell ignites a fire nothing can extinguish.

 

Esther goes along with her friend’s candle-magic spell calling for a lover because a one-night stand just might help take her mind off Ryan Jameson. Her father died in the line of duty, and she has no plans to lose her heart to a firefighter who faces danger on a daily basis, no matter how hot he is. But it seems futile to resist when the spell starts to work its magick.

 

For as long as Ryan can remember, he’s had dreams of a woman with pale blue eyes, and when finds her in Burnt Cove, the connection between them is instantaneous. But the woman of his dreams seems bound and determined to keep him at arm’s length.

When a spell goes awry and gives them one night together, it’s all the opportunity he needs to convince her they’re meant to be.

It's Day 2 of the countdown to Halloween. Today's book is the second in the Spells, Secrets & Seduction series--DREAMS OF SEDUCTION.

Dreams of Seduction

Spells, Secrets & Seductions, Book 2

 

She doesn’t believe in magic or love, until she finds both.

 

Maggie O’Neill doesn’t believe in magick, but she goes along with her friend’s spell calling for a lover because it seems like harmless fun. She’s left feeling strangely hot and bothered after, and then the dreams start…

 

Deputy Jed Bearson is a spiritwalker. He has a rule about never invading anyone’s privacy or dreams, but something pulls him to Maggie’s bedside, where he’s shocked to hear her crying out his name in pleasure. He’s stayed away from her for months, but no more…

 

Their connection is deep and hot, but Maggie’s reaction to Jed’s secret brings up a wall between them, and Jed wonders what she’s afraid of—magick or following her heart?

HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN--Day 1--A Touch of Magick

 The official countdown to Halloween has begun. I'm starting with A TOUCH OF MAGICK, the first book in the Spells, Secrets, & Seductions, Book 1

A Touch of Magick

There’s nothing practical about this magick

Rhiannon Sparks isn’t a very good witch, so when she slips up during a spell and calls for true love instead of a lover, she doesn’t think anything will come of it. But it seems that love has arrived along with Rhiannon’s newly unleashed powers, and she’ll have to learn to handle both or risk losing it all.

Deputy Ryland Stone is a realist. He believes only in what he can see and touch. But when he gets his hands on Rhiannon, sparks fly—literally. He can’t explain the instant connection they have, but Rhiannon’s explanation challenges everything he knows to be true.


Each book in the Spells, Secrets & Seductions series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.

TUESDAY TEASER--FURY UNLEASHED

 FURY UNLEASHED is the first book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series. Maccus is a fallen angel you don't want to mess with.

TEASER:

The stance, the way she held the weapon, was that of someone with some skill. The blade was dull, not shiny. It was for killing, not for show. And contrary to what popular television shows would have people think, shiny blades gave away your position to the enemy. Silent and deadly was best. The target should never see you or the knife coming.

“I think you’re trying to intimidate me.”

“Is it working?”

Fury Unleashed

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 1

 

Maccus Fury, a fallen angel, is trying hard to keep his sanity. Seems being an assassin might be catching up with him. Now, Heaven, or Hell, has sent a beautiful assassin to kill him. Lovely. She’s pretending to seduce him, and he’s okay with that. She’s smart and snarky—but she has no idea what she’s walked into. And he’s more than peeved that they only sent one person. They’re going to need an army if they want him dead.

Morrigan Quill is one of Hell’s bounty hunters. She sold her soul to keep her sister safe, and now she’s working off her contract by catching bad guys and dragging them back to hell. When Lucifer makes her a new offer––that’s definitely too good to be true—she can’t say no. All she has to do is kill a powerful and crazy-hot fallen angel, who will totally kick her ass in battle.

Good thing he won’t see what’s coming next.

COVER REVEAL--ALEXIARES

I'm thrilled to share the cover for ALEXIARES, the second book in the Blackwell Brothers' Redemption series, coming November 10th!

Alexiares

Blackwell Brothers’ Redemption, Book 2

 

From New York Times bestselling author N. J. Walters comes the tale of Death’s second son…in this energetic, paranormal small-town romance that’s deadly irresistible!

 

 Some find redemption. Others land in it.

 

One moment, Alexiares Blackwell was reaping yet another human soul and gunning through New York City on his Harley. The next, he’s dropped into the path of an oncoming car in the small town of Redemption.

 

It turns out, his dear old dad—the Grim Reaper himself—has decided that Alex needs a crash course in humanity. Literally. Now he’s stuck in a nowhere town with nothing but his motorcycle and some serious parent issues.

 

But no one messes with Death. Not even his sons.

 

Stripped of his powers, Alex is trying to figure out what his father wants from him—all while attempting to resist his increasingly complicated attraction to inn owner Cilla Wainwright. Alex can’t risk anything that resembles feelings…not even when she surprises him with a kiss that unravels him in ways he still can’t figure out.

 

Because Alex has a job to do.

 

And it’s starting to look a lot like the next soul he’s supposed to reap…is hers.

TUESDAY TEASER---WOLF OF HER OWN

 Here's a teaser from WOLF OF HER OWN, from the Salvation Pack series.

TEASER:

Elise set her mug down on the table and stood, curling her bare toes against the cold wood. She was going to get dressed, grab her camera, and try to capture the essence of the morning. She’d taken one step toward the door when she realized she wasn’t alone.

He was out there.

She always knew when Mikhail was close by. Every cell in her body hummed in a way that made her both hot and uncomfortable. She seriously thought about pretending she didn’t know he was there, but that smacked of weakness. And after so many years of being browbeaten by her former mate, she was through being a coward.

“Come out,” she demanded. Heart pounding and hands damp, she waited. Her breath quickened when he coalesced out of the morning mist. He was a big and powerfully built wolf. His fur was dark brown with glints of red and some streaks of gray on the top of his head. His green eyes shone with intelligence and something else she really didn’t want to acknowledge.

Wolf of her Own

Salvation Pack, Book 9

 

Mikhail Matheson may be an outsider in Salvation, but he stays with the pack to be close to his sister. It has nothing to with the fact that Elise—the most fascinating woman he’s ever laid eyes on—is part of the pack. Mikhail has wanted Elise for years, but being with her could cost him his life. Soon he’ll have to decide if he’s going to leave the pack or risk it all to pursue a place at her side.

                                       

After escaping her abusive mate, Elise LaForge has made a home in Salvation with her sons. She never expected to have her emotions stirred up by the always serious and seriously handsome Mikhail. But can she finally put her past behind her and dare to move on?

                                             

When danger creeps into the pack, both she and Mikhail have to be willing to sacrifice everything to have a chance at love.

TUESDAY TEASER--SAMAEL

Here's a teaser from SAMAEL, the first book in the Blackwell Brothers' Redmption series.

TEASER:

She cranked the radio up to drown out her thoughts. “Paint it Black” by the Rolling Stones poured out of the speakers as she rolled around a curve. A tall, dark-haired man stood off to the side of the road with a leather jacket slung over one broad shoulder. An icy chill raced down her spine. Goose bumps rose on her bare arms.

Samael

Blackwell Brothers’ Redemption, Book 1

 

Love her. Protect her. Reap her soul.

Samael Blackwell is the son of Death—and he’s officially out of chances. After centuries of reaping souls with zero regard for the rules, his father sends him to the dead-end town of Redemption. With only a few hundred bucks and the clothes on his back, Sam has one last shot to prove he can do the job right: reap with compassion, or lose everything.

It should’ve been easy. Find the soul. Finish the job. Walk away.

Then he meets Adrianne Sharp.

She’s strong, guarded, and hiding from a past that refuses to stay buried. The connection between them is instant—and impossible. Because Adrianne isn’t just anyone. She’s his assignment.

And her soul’s on the clock.

To win back his old life, all Sam has to do is watch her die. But what if the cost of redemption…is her?

He was sent to end her story. But she just might rewrite his.

THROWBACK THURSDAY---HUNTER AVENGED

 The throwback book this week is HUNTER AVENGED, the final book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

Hunter Avenged

Forgotten Brotherhood Book 6

 

It’s taken Viking hunter Sven Knutson six frustrating months to find her. To track down the angel responsible for compromising the Forgotten Brotherhood and waking the drakon. She may be clever. Resourceful. But no one ever gets away from Sven. Ever.

All Rivka longed for as an angel was a chance to serve on Earth and help humans. Instead, it all went impossibly, horribly wrong, and she still doesn’t understand how or even why. All she knows is that she’s on the run—not only from Heaven’s dangerous elite guard, but also from the Brotherhood, who want answers.

She might just have to trust the immortal Viking whose icy blue eyes make her feel almost wickedly human. Because someone wants Rivka dead and the Brotherhood eliminated. Someone powerful enough to take on the most dangerous assassins who have ever lived. Someone who could unleash the fury of both Heaven and Hell…and Rivka is the key.

EXCERPT:

She’d made her choice, and a smart man took what gifts came his way and was grateful.

Did she really understand what he’d meant earlier? He wasn’t fully sure himself, only that there was a certainty inside him that if he made love to her, he’d never let her go.

Heaven and the other angels be damned. They didn’t need her, but he did. Among them, she was an outcast. With him, she’d always come first.

Rivka had started out as a mission—track her down and bring her to Maccus. The safety of the Brotherhood was at stake. His honor, indeed his place among them, hung in the balance. Failure wasn’t an option. She’d been a means to an end, nothing more. Somewhere along the way, everything had changed. Her courage, ingenuity, intellect, and determination drew his admiration. Physically, she stoked primal urges he’d never experienced before.

He’d always prided himself on his intellect, as well as his strength. Logically, it was too soon to care this deeply about her. For only the second time in his life, he tossed reason aside and listened to his heart. The only other time he’d done it, he’d ended up in a battle with the gods that had almost ended in disaster.

A chill snaked down his spine.

It had all turned out well in the end and would this time. He didn’t need faith. Not when he had a strong mind and body and enough determination for a dozen immortal warriors.

TEASER TUESDAY--ANCIENT DESIRE

 The teaser this week comes from ANCIENT DESIRE, the fifth book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

TEASER:

She’s dangerous. As much as he was drawn to her and as innocent as she seemed, he couldn’t forget she’d done the impossible—awakened him and convinced him to leave the cave. He was a fierce drakon, once feared by the mightiest nations of the world, yet he was unable to walk away. A sliver of concern dimmed some of his arousal. It would be smarter to leave, but there were questions that needed answering. And, like it or not, Raine was at the center of it all.

Ancient Desire

Forgotten Brotherhood Book 5

 

Nothing was supposed to wake half dragon, half human Lucius from his Deep Sleep. Nothing. And yet something, or rather someone has. The unexpectedly attractive human not only touched him. She kissed him. Now Lucius is awake, and more powerful than he has ever been in his 4,000 years of existence. And once he finds out who led her to his cave, he’ll deal with his 300 years of hunger…

 

College professor Raine Carson spent her life obsessed with myths and legends. And now she’s woken one up. Only Lucius is nothing like anything she’s ever seen or read about in her history books. Because this man is part sexy badass and part terrifying…monster. Yet she wants him with a hunger like nothing she’s ever felt before.

 

Lucius used to be part of the Forgotten Brotherhood—a ruthless group of paranormal assassins. Now he’s unsure if his former Brothers are their allies…or enemies. All he knows is that someone is hunting him, and Raine is just as tangled up in this mess as he is. And he’ll protect her—even if it means unleashing his Dragon and all of its power.

THROWBACK THURSDAY---BJORN CURSED

 This Thursday we're throwing back to BJORN CURSED, book four of the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

Bjorn Cursed

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 4

 

After the slaughter of his wife and family centuries ago, tortured and broken, Bjorn was cursed as the first Norse werewolf. With the help of the Forgotten Brotherhood, Bjorn has finally been able to control the beast within. But Lucifer is still looking to create chaos for Forgotten Brotherhood. Only this time, he’s taken a woman from the Norse afterlife…and placed her right in the path of Bjorn Knutson.

 

Now Odin himself has tasked Bjorn with killing the woman who escaped. Failure is not an option. But when he rescues a human woman in the night, Bjorn is stunned to find himself looking on upon the face of the woman who’s haunted his dreams and nightmares for centuries. His long-dead wife. His love. His Anja. And she is the one pulled from the afterlife—and he’s been sent to kill.

 

Killing her will destroy him. And letting her go will unleash the fury of Odin upon them both…

EXCERPT:

“Bjorn?” Her voice quavered. Her uncertainty was apparent, but likely only to him.

It was more effective than a fist to the jaw to snap him back to reality. He willed his wolf into submission. With his hands on his hips, he sucked air into his lungs, driving back the fury that threatened to erupt.

But seeing blood on her, knowing she’d had to defend herself, had brought out the killer inside.

And now she knew.

He was no longer the man she’d married. He was a monster. One he’d created with his own arrogance. He was no different than the men hunting her. Actually, he was worse because he was the cause of it all.

If he was a better man, he’d leave her with Asher for protection while he figured out a way to deal with the threat facing them. His wolf growled, enraged that he’d even consider such a thing. Both man and beast were in agreement. For better or worse, she belonged with him. No one would do more to keep her safe.

TEASER TUESDAY---BURNING ASH

 This week's teaser if from BURNING ASH, the third book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

TEASER:

He sauntered out of the dark and fully into the candlelight. The flames flickered over his face, exposing a strong jaw, straight nose, and high forehead. His blond hair was pulled back in a short tail at his nape. His skin was olive-toned or tanned, hard to say. Piercing brown eyes stared at her.

Good looking was much to tame. Handsome didn’t fit either. There was something dangerous and predatory lurking beneath the surface. Primal. Compelling. Yeah, that was it.

It was time for her to leave.

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 3

 

No one is more surprised than Asher, one of the oldest vampires on Earth, that he’s attracted to vamp hunter Jo Radcliffe. She’s smart, a talented slayer, and she’s gorgeous. Something about her pulls at him, like no one ever has before. For a man whose name strikes fear in everyone—this is something new and intriguing. And quite possibly deadly, if she discovers his secret.

Jo has two things in common with the handsome Asher—they are both slayers and someone is messing with them in a very-much-trying-to-kill-them way. She’s not so happy about joining forces with a dude she doesn’t know. But he’s sexy as hell and really good at his job as one of the Forgotten Brotherhood, whose business it is to execute misbehaving paranormals.

She knows she’s bait in a larger plot to harm Asher and the Brotherhood. And there is nothing he won't do, no line he won’t cross, to keep her safe—which may be the weakness that destroys them both.

THROWBACK THURSDAY---ARCTIC BITE

Today's THROWBACK THURSDAY  feature is ACTIC BITE, the second book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

I LOVE Alexei so much!

Arctic Bite

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 2

 

Being immortal doesn’t mean you can’t die. It just means you’re damn hard to kill.

 

When Alexei Medvedev joined the Forgotten Brotherhood—a group of paranormals hired to assassinate other paranormals—he knew it wouldn’t be a cake walk. But his next target is one of Death’s own Reapers gone rogue. For the first time since he started this gig, “damn hard to kill” feels damn near impossible.

 

Everyone in the Brotherhood knows the first rule: don’t fall for your target. But when Alexei tracks Cassie Dobbs to a remote bar in small-town Alaska, he finds the hot-as-hell Reaper casually serving drinks as if she doesn’t have a bounty on her head from Death himself. And now he’s dangerously intrigued. 

 

But Alexei soon has bigger problems to face than an unexpected attraction. They only send assassins after those who deserve to die—or so he’s been told. Now that he’s met Cassie, he’s not so sure.

 

Because what if everything he’s been told is a lie...and the person he’s been sent to kill is the only one who knows the truth?

 

EXCERPT:

 

Just her luck. She finally was attracted to a guy and he was probably here to take her home. Or maybe exterminate her. Did he even know what she was? Or was this nothing more than her overactive imagination? Maybe he was socially awkward. No crime in that.

She swallowed back a scream of frustration. She was making herself crazy with all this speculation.

He remained silent, but he did finally raise his head. There was something in his expression she couldn’t quite distinguish, and it gave her pause. Was it regret? Pity?

Anger bubbled up inside her. Swallowing it back took a real effort, but she managed. With anger would come a burst of energy. That could alert one of her kind to her presence here.

“Just who the hell are you?” she demanded.

He frowned and tilted his head to one side, seeming honestly bewildered by her question. “Alexei Medvedev.”

It was tempting to let it go, but she couldn’t afford to. She leaned closer until their foreheads were almost touching. “Let me rephrase the question. What are you?” If she was wrong about him, he’d be confused by her question. If she could catch him off guard, she might get an honest reaction.

He released a chuff, the sound more animalistic than human.

It all suddenly made sense—his big size, his enormous appetite, his ability to easily handle whiskey like it was water. The dark, musky scent that clung to his skin.

She checked to make sure no one else could hear. For once, the jukebox was quiet and there was only the hum of the television over the bar.

“You’re a shifter of some kind, aren’t you?” She had no idea just what she was dealing with, but having one of his kind show up in Alaska and come to her place of work was no coincidence.

Without waiting for an answer, she demanded, “Why are you here?”

He straightened­­––his great size more intimidating than it had been up until this very moment. Without the haze of sexual attraction blinding her, it was easy to see what was glaringly obvious, to put all the clues together.

Ignorance might be bliss, but it could also be her undoing. Too bad she hadn’t seduced him last night. That ship had sailed. And that saddened her even as dread made her stomach clench.

He stared right at her, his icy-blue eyes filled with determination.

“I’m here for you.”
