Cover Reveal and Giveaway ~ THE SWORD UNSHEATHED

Tags

, , , , , , , ,

I’m excited to reveal the cover for my upcoming young adult paranormal fantasy, The Sword Unsheathed!  What do you think?  The location on the cover is important to the continuing story because important scenes in this book and the next occur there.  Can you guess where it is?

I’m doing a giveaway on Facebook (open to US followers only).  Comment on the cover reveal post–telling me your guess of the location–and you could win a signed copy of either the first or second book (The Cauldron Stirred or The Stone Awakened) in the series.  Your choice!  The giveaway is open until 11:59 pm EST tomorrow (March 5).  Enter here and good luck!

In the meantime, here’s the scoop on The Sword Unsheathed:

Ashling Donoghue is no closer to finding her parents than she was the night they disappeared. But hope returns as her brother Kian channels the Sword of Light, revealing past-life secrets and truths long suppressed.

The more she learns, the greater she fears the darkness that drowns the Netherworld also drives her. Is Aengus her true love, or is it Lorcan? Does her future wait in shadow or the light?

One point is clear: the threads of her past-self are woven inextricably into the tapestry of her soul. An impossible choice looms before her, and all the while, evil is poised to strike.

I finished my read-through of the final galley yesterday and turned it in to my editor.  We should have a release date soon.

Wishing you a lovely Wednesday!  🙂

Today, I’m working on Return of the Raven, the fifth and final book of The Novels of Ravenwood series.  I wanted to let you know…the first four books are still on sale for 99 cents, but only for a few more days.  If you’ve ever considered reading them, now is the perfect time!  Here’s what you can expect from each book:

Flight of the Raven (The Novels of Ravenwood, Book One)

How eager would the bridegroom be if he knew he could never bed the bride?

Lady Emma of Ravenwood Keep is prepared to give Sir William l’Orage land, wealth, and her hand in marriage. But her virginity? Not unless he loves her. The curse that claimed her mother is clear: unless a Ravenwood heir is conceived in love, the mother will die in childbirth. Emma is determined to dodge the curse. Then William arrives, brandishing raw sensuality which dares her to explore her own.

William the Storm isn’t a man to be gainsaid. He’ll give her protection, loyalty, and as much tenderness as he can muster. But malignant memories quell the mere thought of love. To him, the curse is codswallop. He plans a seduction to breach Emma’s fears and raze her objections. What follows is a test of wills and an affirmation of the power of love.

Soul of the Wolf (The Novels of Ravenwood, Book Two)

A Norman loyalist, Lady Jocelyn bristles when ordered to marry Wulfstan, a Saxon sorcerer. She nurses a painful secret and would rather bathe in a cesspit than be pawed by such a man…until her lifelong dream of motherhood rears its head.

A man of magic and mystery, Wulfstan has no time for wedded bliss. He fears that consummating their marriage will bind their souls and wrench his focus from the ancient riddle his dying mother begged him to solve. He’s a lone wolf, salving old wounds with endless work. But Jocelyn stirs him as no woman ever has.

Their attraction is undeniable. Their fates are intertwined. Together, they must face their demons and bring light to a troubled land.

Amazon | Amazon UK | B & N | Apple

Shadow of the Swan (The Novels of Ravenwood, Book Three)

Lady Constance de Bret was determined to be a nun, until shadows from the past eclipsed her present. Marriage is the safest option, but she insists on a spiritual union, in which physical intimacy is forbidden. Not so easy with a bridegroom who wields unparalleled charm! But a long-buried secret could taint his affection and cloak her in shadow forever.

Back from the Crusades, Sir Robert le Donjon craves a home of his own and children to inherit it. From the moment he meets Constance, he feels a mysterious bond between them. When she’s threatened, he vows to protect her and agrees to the spiritual marriage, with the hope of one day persuading her to enjoy a “real” one. She captivates him but opens old wounds and challenges everything he thought he believed.

Two souls in need of healing. Two hearts destined to beat as one.

Amazon | Amazon UK | B & N | Apple

Night of the Owl (The Novels of Ravenwood, Book Four)

PhD student Ardyth Nightshade has renounced men and pursues her twentieth-century career with single-minded focus. When fate whisks her to medieval England, she meets her match in a man whose passions mirror her own. Can she sacrifice ambition for a love she never sought?

Hugh, Lord Seacrest confounds all who know him. He refuses to marry without a meeting of minds and hearts, and no lady has even approached his ideal…until Ardyth. But she’s an odd one, with unique skills, shocking habits, and total conviction she needs no man. She also harbors secrets, and in the midst of rumors, plots, and murder, trust is fragile.

A woman outside of her time. A man ahead of his. They must take a leap of faith to forge a bond that will shape history.

AUSTRALIA BURNS ~ Show Australia Some Love

Tags

, , , , , , , , ,

A few weeks ago, author Stephen B. King–a brother Rose (published by The Wild Rose Press) in Australia–had a brilliant idea.  He contacted our CEO and reached out to his fellow authors with a plan to create an anthology of short stories, specifically to raise money to help Australia in its time of need.  The response was overwhelming!  The Wild Rose Press’s editors, artists, and production staff donated their time and talents, and more than 40 authors donated a short story. (I wanted to donate one, but sadly, I had nothing of the appropriate length ready to go.)

Now, less than a month later, there’s a three-volume anthology, Australia Burns.  Volumes One and Two are available for purchase as eBooks on Amazon and will soon be available from other online distributors. You can also buy them in print from The Wild Rose Press website.  Amazon will, of course, take its cut, but if you buy the books directly from the publisher, all proceeds will go to The Red Cross to help with the recovery effort in Australia.  So let’s show Australia some love!
