On the Horizon


Just signed contracts with Changeling Press for 4 new short stories. Yay!

If you read the Thirsty series (from Razor’s Edge Press), you’ve already met Nolan, this is his story:

A Vampire’s Thirst

Utter three words – he can walk back into the arms of an archangel.

Blurb:

Nolan was Temperance; he gave all souls moderation in everything. He was good at it, and he called Heaven home until he screwed the wrong archangel! Now he wiled away time as a vampire slayer serving the devil, keeping an eye on Omen’s, a club for otherworldly creatures, and babysitting Lucifer’s son. Not a job he expected to hold for damn near eight hundred years. Nolan yearned to return home.

 
The next 3 begin a new series entitled Hellacious. Three brothers, identical triplets, and they are the sons of Satan!

Hellacious 1, Sly

Born in hell, he will destroy the pure heart he desires.

Blurb:

Sly Sathariel possesses his father’s genes and, on earth, he creates all sorts of havoc for humans, though he never takes life. Satan, his father, reserves that power, but not even his threat of ending Sly’s life keeps him from the arms of a pure and spiritual woman representing the Tree of Life. She entangled Sly in her roots, pulled him in a heavenly direction his soul dare not follow.

Waverly Malkuth has a premonition no human should be privy to – she witnesses her own death. It was tearing her apart, filling her with anger and thoughts of vengeance that went against the grain of everything she knew. Giving in to the malevolence growing in her heart carried her into the arms of a man who could only hurry her journey down the deadly path she followed.

Hellacious 2, Slick

Embracing a devious nature sets his heart and soul on fire.

Blurb:

Slick Sathariel, was Satan’s third born, and the youngest triplet. He always keeps the peace and makes everyone happy but himself. Not anymore. Slick is not about to tell the woman he desires that he may be responsible for her lover’s death. He sets out to heal her broken heart, and capture her for himself, but with his family’s prying, Slick may lose the one thing on earth he truly wants.

Marcia Carter spent an hour in the blue-eyed man’s arms and regretted it every day afterward. She had been in the process of extricating herself from an unhappy affair when the handsome stranger said something that caused Marcia’s boyfriend to attempt rekindling their long-dead relationship. Now she was available, and the man pursued her but Marci was not about to share her family’s millions with a poor bastard. One more time, maybe a night…

Hellacious 3, Firstborn

First born of Satan, and he wants to reign in hell!

Blurb:

Wicked Sathariel, the eldest son of Satan finally met his match, and at the oddest of times, she turned up in his head. Accustomed to having his father and siblings rummage through his mind, he couldn’t handle the woman seeing his hellacious thoughts. The only way to lock her out was to keep her in his domain, but Hell was not a place a human lived—unless they were dead!

Lori Thornton’s psychic ability was new and, never one to control her temper or her mouth, she often found herself in bizarre predicaments.  One such event was meeting Satan’s first-born and calling him a pretty boy. When his eyes filled with hellfire and he released horns, talons, and the long, leathery, forked tail that swung treacherously behind him, Lori knew her life was about to spin out of control.

Not even love could tame the deadly creature inside him.

Nightshade Santone discovered The Covenant right under his nose in the eastern part of the United States. Tales were told of its power, and Shade planned to make the book his. He didn’t count on a feisty veterinarian getting in his way. The sexy as hell human willingly took Shade to her bed, and damn if she wasn’t keeping him there! Now, more than ever, he needs to possess the book and its secrets.

Kelsea Arden’s battle to keep animals safe and alive became a passion. One of a handful of humans privy to the secrets of Immortal Redeemers, she finally hoped to make a difference, but the untimely arrival of Shade Santone, a powerful immortal seeking the Covenant, was about to test Kel’s loyalty. The Redeemer not only unbalanced her heart and her life, he gave Kelsea a new purpose -- capturing and keeping the raptor forever.

Excerpt
She returned with two steaming cups, and handed him an espresso.
“How’d you know?”
“I asked the young lady at the register.”
Shade dug into his memory for the last time someone did anything so simple for him. He gave up. Yeah, one extra night wouldn’t make a difference in his timetable. “Thanks.”
“Thank you.” She took a sip from her cup and glanced around the café. “You shocked everyone confronting Big Jake.”
“Doesn’t happen often I take it?”
“Jake’s a mean bastard and he meant what he said.”
“So did I.” Shade stared at the woman across from him. “You’re not shocked.”
Her head tilted and she peered at him for a few seconds before a smile curled her lips. “Nothing an Immortal Redeemer does shocks me anymore.”
“Well, goddamn, I’m shocked.” He didn’t bother to mask his gold eyes when he picked up his cup and drank the black liquid. “You smell me?” His dick twitched. She knows what I am! Shade planned to use her to help locate and retrieve the Covenant, but now that may not be as easy as he thought since she knew what he was.
“Uhh-huh.” She took another swallow of coffee. “You probably smell them on me.”
“Uhh-huh.” He missed casual conversation with the usual women he chose to fuck. Damn if it didn’t make him hard.
“You’re here for a reason?”
He put his cup down, reached over and took her hand. “I think I found a reason to stay a little longer.” A perfect nose sat between high cheekbones and over lips painted red, lips he wanted to lean into and taste. She was breathtaking. Her laughter tinkled through the air, made him feel happy for no reason at all. “You’re not afraid?”
“Should I be?”
Shit raced through his mind. How far away were the male immortals he scented, how much time did he have? Hundreds of years fucking made sex something Shade did lately only to release pressure or break the monotony of his day-to-day life. He only selected those that discerned his scent. There were women all around the world, lots of them, but lately he picked them up in his club, screwed in his office without much conversation, and sent them on their way. Usually with a handful of money. Nightshade had not felt this alive in years, and it might take more than a night or two to get the woman across from him into his bed and out of his mind.
“I’m Kelsea Arden, the local vet.”
“Nightshade Santone.” He brought her hand to his mouth and kissed the palm. “At your service.” Christ, he felt like standing, and bowing.
In another time, he would have.

 Hope you enjoyed the excerpt!
