Happy Release Day To Me

**Extended! Some folks were having trouble posting from their phones and such, so I'm extending this through Monday 10/3! And let's make it a $20.00 Amazon gift card, shall we!***

Hi! You’re here! Oh my gosh, I’m so excited you came by!! Today is the release of my fourth novel, True North. It’s about a small town in Colorado where everyone is a shape shifter…except Sahar. It’s a story about standing out rather than fitting in, fighting for what you believe in, and of course, a hot boy with blue eyes. Yeah, I have issues. I know.

In honor of this most excellent occasion, I have decided to give away a free copy of True North and an Amazon gift card. To enter, just leave a comment below and let me know you’re interested.

Again, thanks for stopping by and good luck!

Oh and here’s a little excerpt from True North to wet your whistle.

“I’m always around, Dawn. Whether you know it or not. We are one in the same, you and I.”

“What if I don’t want you around?” I asked.

“Then you’re going to die. Plain and simple.” He held up his hand and my necklace dangled, swaying this way and that in the breeze. How did he get that?

“Give it back,” I demanded. “It’s mine. You gave it to me.”

He began to hum that same damn song and placed the necklace in his pocket. When he turned his back to me, I could see the horrible gash that traveled the length of his spine. Blood dripped down his legs, staining the snow around him. I could smell it, it was…heavenly. My mouth began to water and I was down on my knees, stuffing the hot snow in my mouth. He began to laugh and then I began to scream.

Baby Kitties and Pricker Bushes

While driving home in a panic yesterday, I saw two baby kitties on the side of the road. I was in a hurry because I had to get home and fax a New York hotel a credit card authorization form for a friend at work. Once that was completed (and trust me she should feel really special that I put that over the kitties), I went back to try and get them. There are three; two black and one gray, and they are as big as my hand. I was so close to getting them it was just heartbreaking. My husband took me back up there when the rain slacked a bit, but no luck. So of course, they’re all I can think about.

I’m telling y’all right now, if I ran this country, anyone who hurt kids, animals, or old people would be killed on the spot. If two grown-ass men are fighting and someone gets stabbed or shot, whatever. Shit happens. Let’s have a trial and all that. The person guilty of that crime isn’t necessarily a bad person, they just got in a bad spot. ANYONE who hurts a child, animals, or old people CANNOT be rehabilitated. PERIOD. They prey on weak victims because they are sick in the head and need to dominate something. I would be like, ‘You did what? Booocahoowhhh!’ (That was me kicking them in the head and then shooting them.)

After two afternoons of crawling around in the pricker bushes, Cameron getting attacked by fire ants, and Myron ripping his tie, I have come to the conclusion that the baby kitty doesn’t like me. This is a very hard fact for me to accept because ALL CATS LIKE ME. I am sad.

Well TRUE NORTH comes out on Saturday. At least I’ve got that going for me. Below are pics of the kitties that still love me.

True North Release and Amazon Gift Card Giveaway

On October 1st, True North will be available to purchase. In honor of this occasion I will be giving away a $15.00 Amazon Gift Card and a FREE eCopy of True North. Though the Maldito Series will always hold a special place in my heart, I am very excited to begin something new. Is this a series? Well, it wasn’t supposed to be. The story itself is singular, told from start to finish, beginning-middle-end all in one book. The characters, however, don’t seem to be accepting that. So we shall see where this small Colorado town takes me. Wherever it is, I hope you come along for the ride!
