First, I want to say thank you to all who commented on the last post. I know this blog has been neglected, but I am so grateful to all of the readers here. If you didn't read, I couldn't write. So my gratitude comes from the heart. 

Anyway, I feel like I’m always saying this, but it’s no joke that the publishing world works on its own calendar. That means this time of year is not just about summer vacations, AC repairs, and bug spray. It’s also the time for Christmas cover reveals! 

I don’t just love writing these kinds of stories, I am also an avid reader of Christmas and holiday novellas. So this year I joined a number of holiday anthologies, including the Winter Wishes & Holiday Kisses Limited Holiday Anthology. This collection releases on November 12, 2024, and today I’m sharing the cover and preorder link.  Although our stories are novellas, they’ll be packed with all the holiday angst and feels! The stories span mid-to-high heat levels, from sweet-and-sexy to super-steamy. While this collection is .99 during the preorder period, I believe the price will increase after the publication date. (It's an Amazon thing!)

My story in this collection, A Tender Betrayal, is a new novella in the Deadly Force Series. It’s a powerful love story starring Bianca Legare (sister of a character in Every Deep Desire) and Sampson (a Fianna warrior). Both Bianca and Sampson appeared in Love’s Last Kiss (my most recent Deadly Force novel), and I’m excited about this story because it’s the first one told from the POV of an active Fianna Warrior. This forced-proximity, sexy holiday romance will force Bianca and Sampson to face their greatest fears if they want to save their future. I hope you enjoy it as much as I loved writing it!
