I really think you’ll love this one. It’s got some serious twists and turns. Tons of suspense and one of the most touching scenes I’ve ever written.

Oh and I almost forgot…Shadows Rising includes bonus content. At the back, you’ll find Siren’s Call, an all new short story featuring Jumper and Colby.

Book 5 is already well under way for a spring release. You’ll notice that I’ve changed the working title to Book of the Lost (previously For All Time). It’s all about…well, you’ll see.

 

YA Indie Carnival: Current Work in Progress

Posted on by

This week at the YA Indie Carnival the indies are revealing their works in progress. I’m so excited to see what everyone is working on. Probably not a surprise to anyone here that my time lately is completely dedicated to finishing Shadows Rising, book 4 in the Midnight Guardian series. 

Here’s your first look at the full cover. We start SR in the days just after Midnight Child ended. Keira’s charge, Drew, has been kidnapped and she will do anything to get him back, even if that means marching right through the Empress’s front door.

Beta readers are calling it the most exciting installment in the series yet. Here’s a sneak peek. Continue reading →

Sneak Peek: Shadows Rising

Posted on by

Here’s the scoop…

I’m currently wrapping up Shadows Rising (Book 4, Midnight Guardian series) with a tentative Halloween release. The fourth installment begins with the kidnapping of Keira’s charge, toddler Drew Hayes.

Keira Ryan is pretty much like any midwestern teen girl. Pretty much, except for the fact that she’s a guardian, an ancient species dedicated to nurturing those in the human race whom are destined change the world for the better.

Problem is, just a heartbeat away, behind a magical barrier, thrives a race of gremlin-like creatures that want nothing more than to destroy the human race. Led by the Gammen royal family, the mogdocs, are doing their best to tear their way into our world.

The thing about this series is, about the time you have it all figured out, you look up and see that you’re back to square one. One moment, you’re falling for the nice guy; the next you’re rooting for the bad boy. Even the class clown can bring you to tears. Dip your toes in book 1, Of Sun & Moon. Let the overall feeling of wrongness envelope you in book 2, Whispering Evil. Take a wild ride in book 3, Midnight Child. When the villians’ special talent is manipulation–nothing is EVER as it seems.

Here’s a sneak peek at Book 4. Continue reading →
