Cast by Flames release day!

I am excited to let everyone know that Cast by Flames is now available in ebook format. For the next three days, you can grab it on any of the major retailers. I will pull it from everywhere except Amazon after that to enroll it into Kindle Unlimited. When it’s in KU, I’ll post again to let everyone know who is waiting to borrow it. I’ll also update you all when the audiobook is available.

Below are the details on Cast by Flames and the retailer links. I hope you enjoy this final installment featuring Bailey and Aidan!

SUMMARY:

Malicious forces are coming for Bailey, Aidan, and everyone they know. The Kandoran are cunning and ruthless when conquering land and all the beings who live in it. They infect everyone they touch with evil magic, assimilating them for their own dark purposes.

With a massive army coming they cannot hope to match, the best Bailey and Aidan can do is court as many allies as possible to form an unlikely coalition of pure dragons, shifters, sorcerers, slayers, and humans bound together with the single purpose of preserving their way of life. They will have to form strategies and fight back in both modern and magical ways their adversary could never anticipate. Even then, the odds are against them, but with everything they love on the line, they’ll do whatever it takes to survive.

Happy holidays and an update!

This year has gone by so fast. I’m pleased I’ve made my goal of finishing the seventh and final novel of the Dragon’s Breath Series featuring Bailey and Aidan. The edits for Cast by Flames are finished, and I sent the final version to the audio publisher yesterday afternoon. Of course, it will still take some time to get it recorded and edited for that version, but I’ll let you know when I have a release date for it. In the meantime, the ebook will be out on December 30th for you to enjoy. That is only five days away!

This installment was my longest book yet at 158,000 words (final count after changes), so it was with the editor for over a month before I got it back. During that time, I began work on Galadon. It’s the one spin-off novel for the series. So far, I’ve written over 21,000 words, and I’m loving the journey with him. If all goes well, I’ll have his book out by late April 2025.

My publishing goals after this series have changed since I last discussed the topic. A whole new story and world have been developing in my head this year within the fantasy genre. I don’t want to give away much right now, but I will definitely give you all more details in a few months.

In the meantime, I’m wishing you all happy holidays (whichever you celebrate). With a 3-year-old and 7-year-old, I’ll have a mess on my hands this morning to clean up from presents, but it’s always fun to see their excitement on Christmas morning.

Torn in Flames is now available!

It’s finally release day for the sixth novel in the Dragon’s Breath Series (in ebook format). Torn in Flames was probably the most fun and intense to write for the series so far, and I loved every minute of it. I had not expected it to be quite as long as it turned out, but it ended up being almost 109,000 words (over 10k more than the last novel). Of course, there was a lot of ground to cover literally and figuratively. I’m truly excited for you all to read this one! Not to worry, there is no major cliffhanger this time.

If you missed the details from my pre-order announcement, I’ve got the book summary and retailer links below. Also, for those who haven’t already, be sure to download, print, or screenshot the companion maps should you wish to track the characters’ journeys in this installment. They’re in my last post here.

Also, for those using non-Amazon retailers, please be sure to grab the ebook no later than March 2nd. I will need to pull it after that to enroll it into Kindle Unlimited. My apologies for the inconvenience, but a large portion of my audience prefers reading their books in KU, so I’m doing my best to accommodate everyone.

Since I know this is the next question, audio will be coming as well. I turned in the manuscript to my publisher about ten days ago. They are working to get the recording process started so that it can be available soon. I’ll update you all once I know more.

Hope you enjoy Torn in Flames!

BOOK SUMMARY

What’s a dragon slayer to do when she comes home from battle and discovers her four-year-old son has turned into the creature she hunts? While Bailey Monzac knew it might happen someday, nothing could have prepared her for this challenge without her shifter mate, Aidan, by her side.

After fleeing for her life from Oklahoma five years ago and leaving him behind, she’d begun working for the New American Coalition on the east coast. While it has been a haven, the people are not fond of anything that can breathe fire. On top of that, she’s just received a mystical “call” telling her that grave danger is approaching the home she left, and she must return. That means crossing nearly a thousand miles of treacherous territory in a post-apocalyptic world and potentially facing the same threat that made her leave.

Meanwhile, Aidan has his own troubles. He’s paid a heavy price for helping Bailey escape his clan while she was pregnant with their child. It was the only option for them at the time, and he’d do it again, but now the pendragon has given him a deadly mission to search enemy territory. With dark magic permeating the area, sapping the life force of those who cross it, most have never returned. If Aidan wants to provide a secure place for his mate and their son when they arrive, he must face it and so much more. Only by choosing the right path will they survive the evil forces coming their way.
