You may have noticed a bit of a trend with me not posting about my new releases ON release day lol In my defense, there's always so much going on, my toe-doe list is a mile long. Also, it was Halloween and Samhain!  To all who celebrate, I hope you had a great one! Now, for this latest release, Violent Angel (Pretty Broken Things Book One) , I'm going to start with something I haven't needed to say in a while. PLEASE. DO. NOT. IGNORE. THE. WARNINGS. People have their own definitions of dark, and some of my books that I didn't think needed much of a warning were still a bit edgy by many standards. Pretty Broken Things isn't just 'edgy'. There are a lot of really f*cked up scenes. This book has assassins who are one step from earning the serial killer label—though there is a good argument toward several of them already fitting the definition—and though they may be lovable, it's best never to forget exactly what they are. The men who love them won't....

  This book...Gods, this book is something else! lol But it's finally here!

Without erasing the fact that he is a demon, and they don't live in a gentle land of fluffy bunnies and hourly hugs, this story was going to be gritty, intense, and sometimes a little scary. The passion and the love are strong enough to survive in this world, though. One that ...

  A couple days past release day, but I got a nasty cold that's slowed down all the stuff and things I need to do. So far testing negative for the great big C, so fingers crossed it stays that way. Not gonna stop me from celebrating though. This book has been in the works for two years and I'm so happy to FINALLY have it out of the deep, dark cave of wonders where WIPs get stashed away like hidden treasures. I'm not sorry it took that long though, because giving the story and these characters a chance to really grow in my mind and develop as much as they did was worth it. The excitement of writing a story where the characters are so fleshed out all you have to do is let them lead the way is pure magic. And with a book like this, that kind of magic wasn't an option. Before I share the excerpt with you, I want to bring up something a few readers have told me. Some hesitated to dive in because of what they thought the book would be, but were pleasantly surprised.
