July-ish: Fairy & Impartial (Starfig Investigations, book 4)
All Twig wants is to settle into mated life with his wizard. No drama. No heartache. A HEA fit for a dragon.
Hahahaha. Yeah, no. That's not this story. Instead, Twig and Quinn are roped into a new case involving missing orc stones (yes, those really are a thing), as well as a murder investigation with a certain red fury as the main suspect. Twig's old enemies are dropping like fairy flies, and his dad is on the PR warpath. Tuuk Chingle is still using Quinn as his muse for his Reigency Romances--Twig is SO not amused--and Quinn's little brother can't seem to stop hitting on their housemate.
What else could go wrong?
Buckle up, you're about to find out.
Must Love Demons
I'm so thrilled with how this book turned out. Being a pantser, I never know whether I'll be satisfied until I finally type THE END. This one exceeded my expectations. I hope you all love Nico and Flame as much as I do!
Blurb:
You’d think being magically tethered to the hottest warden in all Verona wouldn’t be a hardship.
You’d be wrong.
Incubus Nico Azertiran has his dream job as a cherub-in-training. It’s the perfect position for a lust demon who’s more interested in happily-ever-afters than one-night stands. Or it would be, if he didn’t keep screwing it up. When a new cherub gadget misfires, Nico is left trussed to Verona’s most eligible warden, the incredibly grumpy, Sir Flame.
Flambeau Illume has a job to do. Someone’s murdering Verona’s rich and famous, and Sir Flame’s hot on the killer’s trail . . . until he has the misfortune to get magically lassoed to the most infuriating incubus he’s ever had the displeasure to meet. Except, maybe Nico isn’t so terribly awful. But how can he solve his case and keep Nico safe at the same time? Especially when the sweet demon seems to have a bullseye on his back.
Together they need to solve the crime, stay alive, and—if their luck changes—maybe even fall in love. Easy, right?
Must Love Demons is part of the Magic Emporium series. Each book stands alone, but each one features an appearance by Marden’s Magic Emporium, a shop that can appear anywhere, but only once and only when someone’s in dire need. This book contains explicit scenes, a lariat of love, a demon tail with a mind of its own, and a guaranteed HEA.
Magic Emporium: LIVE NOW!
So, I did a thing.
I cajoled some fantastically talented fantasy, urban fantasy, and paranormal romance writers to participate in a shared element series! Each author wrote a novella--or in my case a novel. Sigh, I can't seem to write anything short (scroll down to see more about my contribution to the series).
Each week starting January 14th a new book in the series will go live. The first book is live and the next 6 are ready for preorder. Check out the tab for the Magic Emporium on this website for individual buy links and blurbs. Also, if you'd like to check out the Amazon series page for the one's that are on pre-order, I've created a link below.
Here's the series blurb:
Welcome to the Magic Emporium, where magical creatures and some not-so-magical creatures find their matches. Is it a dating service? No, but it is a magic shop that can appear in any world or realm, it never shows up in the same place twice, and it only appears for creatures in dire need of one of its magical items. How is dire need defined? Depends on who's telling the story. Oh, didn't I mention that? There are 12 amazing novellas in this multi-author series and each has characters who need HELP. If these characters all find love along the way . . . well, how enchanting.
Contributors:
Jacki James, Eliot Grayson, Sam Burns/W.M.Fawkes, Kim Fielding, Meghan Maslow, Rowan McAllister, Rhys Lawless, Clara Merrick, Angel Martinez, EJ Russell, Rachel Langella (Ari McKay), and Morgan Brice.
Twig and Quinn
The Amazing Sarah Jo Chreene did a portrait of Twig and Quinn! I absolutely love it! Expect to see this image show up on swag and possibly merch in the near future.
------------------------------
For those of you who aren't familiar with Sarah Jo's work, she recently did a rockin' cover of "Eryx" for Jaclyn Osborn and she did her very first graphic novel for "Try" by Ella Franks.
News and other happenings. . .
Well, St. Louis didn't happen . . . yet. I'm still signed up for 2021 (St. Louis) and I'll definitely be attending GRL in 2022 (it's in Portsmouth, VA). Woot! I'm going as a featured author again! I'll have paperback copies of each book in the Starfig series and some Starfig swag. I'll also have some new non-Starfig books on offer. And I'll have more than a few handfuls of "Hug Me" buttons, because that's kinda my thing. Hope to see you there!
Writing might be a solitary endeavor, but it takes a team to get a novel out. Rowan McAllister (author) and Lauren Weidner (editor, PA, and lawyer) have made this journey a little easier and much, much more fun.
