I hope everyone's holidays were AMAZING!  And that the stress was kept to a bare minimum.  Or that you at least get to relax now that it's over. If it is. For some the holidays go on and on and on and... But we're not talking about that kind of nightmare. It seemed appropriate to release a book people have been waiting years for on Xmas day, crazy as that sounds. And there were some major advantages to it. Including not having many other releases to share the limelight. Of course, the limelight might have been mostly on Santa, but we're cool. ;) So The End has finally released and I'm so excited by the reactions so far. People have been having nightmares and crying and losing sleep! Cyrus would be thrilled! He had a rough time as this trilogy came to its conclusion, so I'll let him have this little bit of twisted pleasure. In case you didn't know, the trilogy was on sale during the pre-order. Today is the LAST DAY to get Dead

From the moment I saw the trailer for Bright, I knew it was my kind of movie. Action? Check Fantasy? Check Visually appealing, gritty, exciting? Check. Check. Check. My first question was, why didn't I hear about this before? Where were all the ads? The build up? The promo? Good on Netflix, because they proved they didn't need it. They let the movie speak for itself. Bright is a movie that doesn't spoon-feed the audience. You're thrown into a world that's best described as a mix of "Lord of the Rings meets Training Day."  **I wanted to credit the first person on Twitter to say that, but there have been several so I'll just credit the viewers on the #Bright who have a better grasp than the 'Film Critics'** And oh, the film critics. You know, the kind who gush over La La Land. Yeah, they're trying to tell us not to watch Bright. Not only that, they're behaving like a strange hive mind, the only originality between th

For those who have Collateral Damage, you can read all this simply by updating your copy, because it's been added to the end of the book. But if you don't, or can't update for some reason-some have mentioned having trouble-here's the begining of The End. Happy Reading! <g> Prologue I woke to darkness. The scent of damp earth surrounded me. Not close. I had room to move. Standing, with my arms stretched above my head, wrists in metal restraints. Blindfolded. Blood in my mouth. Naked. But I know who I am . Not who I had been, way back when I’d been a child or even growing up to become a lethal young woman. That would always be a blank. The first time I’d been captured my mind had been damaged beyond repair. But after I’d escaped I’d lived a new life. One that had ended too quickly. And this time, I’d walked willingly into my cage. I’d returned to Cyrus. Licking my lips, I held still, not breathing, my heart barely beating in my chest, though

Yes, it took FOREVER. But The End is finally coming. Just in time for Xmas! I'm going to keep this short because there's so much to do to make sure this release goes well, but I want to start with how sorry I am that it's taken this long. Honestly, I'd started to lose hope myself. Everything seemed stacked against this book ever being done. Deadly Captive was one of those nightmare books, haunting me day and night until I got the words on the page. And even then, there's something about the book that messes with me. But when it was published and got such intense reactions, I felt like there were others out there that needed to slip into the darkness as much as I did.  Collateral Damage came out awhile after. These weren't stories I could dive into whenever I wanted to. They were like...like welcoming the nightmare. Facing the demons in your mind, knowing the journey will be worth it, but needing to overcome your fears before you can take that first

There's something one of the heroes, Balthazar, says in his narrative in Inversion that really speaks to me. Some of you might be thinking "Umm, YOU wrote that." Yeah...kinda. Not with my brain, with his. Which probably doesn't make any sense unless you get how real the characters are to me. Either way, it's this: Love didn’t conquer all, not on its own. Like any conqueror, love needed soldiers, ready to fight. Those soldiers were compassion, respect, trust, and devotion. With faith taking up the rearguard when the others faltered.  And maybe that’s all he was missing. The one thing no one else could give him. The one thing he had to find for himself. Faith. Which he would find once he’d figured out how to improve the odds. As nice as it was to believe things would work out for the best, he wasn’t one to sit back and let the cards fall where they may. He always made sure his soldiers were prepared for battle. Inversion has a chara

DAMN! It's been the FOREVER since I got a book out, hasn't it? So naturally I just pumped out another book in my most popular series to make my life easy and soak up all the loving from the fans! Yeah, y'all know me better than that. Since I know it will be asked, YES, there will be another Cobra book soon. Soon being book world soon, not normal world soon. Which means I'll have it to you when the muse allows it. Thankfully, he's been pretty chatty, so it's looking good. For now, he's given us something else. Something I'm glad I trusted him with because... OMG, this book. This fucking book! Inversion (Winter's Wrath Book 3) was meant to be a lighter book. Sexy funtime with our favourite band as we get to know them a little better.  But my muse laughed at me when I told him that's what I expected. What I got was a few rounds of heartbreak, a lot of crying, and new characters that feel like family. I can't really express how much eve
