I’ve been receiving requests from readers to put some of my older titles up in Kindle Unlimited, so I wanted to let you know that 4 of my “Bound” paranormal romances are now available in KU (this is for a limited time). So if you haven’t read these Bound titles, now is a good time to grab them.
All of the “Bound” books feature fierce werewolf heroes and strong vamp heroines–and each tale shows my take on a particular fairy tale (vamp & werewolf style).
BOUND IN DARKNESS is my take on Snow White…only the hunter hired to kill the beauty falls for her.
BOUND IN SIN is my vampire/werewolf spin on Cinderella.
BOUND BY THE NIGHT was inspired by Sleeping Beauty (with a bit of Wicked Queen fun thrown into the mix–I’ve always been a Wicked Queen fan).
BOUND IN DEATH…ah, for this one, Rapunzel was the inspiration (not the long hair part, but lots more dark times).

I’ve got more book news to share!
UNTIL DEATH is now available at Amazon. For Kindle Unlimited subscribers, the book is free! The regular price of the book there is $2.99.
UNTIL DEATH was originally published in the “Sweet Dreams” thriller anthology (this anthology was compiled by author Brenda Novak to raise money for diabetes research). The anthology is no longer available for sale, and this is the first time that UNTIL DEATH has been made available as an individual read.
Here’s the blurb for the sexy thriller:
When Ivy DuLane witnesses a murder during the madness of Mardi Gras, she enters a deadly cat and mouse game with the killer. The city has gone wild with the annual celebration, and Ivy has to rely on sexy homicide detective—and her ex-lover—Bennett Morgan for help. But with every moment that passes, the killer grows bolder, and the body count starts to rise. It soon becomes very hard to tell the innocent from the guilty…especially since Bennett is keeping dark secrets of his own.

I’m very excited to say that my bad boy demon hero, NIOL, is back in action! 😉
Kensington Publishing is re-releasing MIDNIGHT’S MASTER today. This book was originally published as a trade paperback in 2009, but it is now out in the book wild as a mass market read.
Here’s the blurb for MIDNIGHT’S MASTER:
In a world of shadows, desire conquers all…
In this sexy, gripping novel, Cynthia Eden draws readers deeper into the realm of the Others—vampires, shifters, and sinfully attractive demons whose powers are matched only by their dark hungers…
Tall, dark, and formidable, Niol Lapen is the last demon on earth most people would ask for a favor, yet the sexy little reporter who wanders into his club dares to do exactly that. Holly Storm already knows too much about his kind, and Niol has no wish to help her get in deeper over her head. But working alongside her may be the only way to stop a killer, even as it ignites a primal desire unlike anything he’s known.
Holly has seen firsthand what Niol is capable of, but that doesn’t frighten her nearly as much as her body’s instinctive reaction to him, or the wild, fierce passion that would tempt her to follow him through hell itself. Something evil and relentless is prowling the streets of Atlanta. And as Holly’s search leads her into danger that even Niol could never have predicted, she’ll uncover a secret that could rip her world apart….
***
And, in case you are in the mood for a sneak peak, here is a little excerpt:
“No. I’m not one of your demon wannabe sluts, Niol. I don’t want to jump you in the dark so that I can have the thrill of saying I screwed a monster.”
Hit. The reporter obviously understood more than she’d pretended about the human women who came to his bar.
“I don’t want to play—”
“Yes, Holly, you do.” Her heart still pounded too fast, her nipples were still pebbled, and her cheeks were flushed—all from hunger.
Need. For him.
“I’m not going to play.” Her hand dropped. “I’m going to do my job—and find out what happened to Carl. With, or without your help.”
He stared at her. Such a shame. They would have been good together. The sex, well, it would have been pretty phenomenal. All that fire she had—oh, yeah, phe-nomenal.
Pity. Niol shook his head. “Sorry, love, it’s going to be ‘without.’” And then he did the only thing he could do.
He turned around and walked away from her. As he stalked toward the SUV, he felt her eyes on him. His hand lifted, reached for the door.
“Niol.”
Oh, but the woman’s voice could get to him. It was the soft huskiness when she said his name. Like a stroke right over his groin. But he didn’t look at her. Niol opened the door.
“You have to care.” Her voice sharpened. “You play the bastard, but Carl, he was little more than a kid, and one of yours. You have to care—”
The laughter escaped then. He just couldn’t help it. He stepped back and glanced over at her. “Have you forgotten so soon, sweet? The incubus who took you that night—he was one of my kind, too—and I burned him,” the fire had been so beautiful, “from the inside out.”
She flinched.
His lips were twisted in a smile that he knew could chill. “I kill my kind.” The incubus hadn’t been the first, and he wouldn’t be the last. “I don’t go out on a damn crusade to save them…or any humans who are dumb enough to get involved in a world they can’t understand.”
“You’re a cold bastard, Niol.”
So he’d been told.

For those of you who enjoy my Harlequin Intrigue books, I wanted to let you know that the mass market version of SUSPICIONS is scheduled to appear in stores on 8/18/15!
Here’s the blurb for the book:
Everyone’s a suspect in New York Times bestselling author Cynthia Eden’s latest book…
Mark Montgomery will never forget the night Ava McGuire galloped onto his ranch terrified out of her mind. Once he’d saved his best friend’s sister from harm, the hardest part was letting her go. Now she’s seeking safe haven again—and rekindling desire that will engulf them both.
Uncovering the truth about that long-ago night plunges Ava into a world where no one can be trusted. Except maybe the rancher she has loved for years… But with a vengeful killer stalking them and passion drawing them inexorably closer, will Mark’s secrets be their downfall…?
****
And, in case you are in the mood for a glimpse at the story, I just added a very long excerpt to the SUSPICIONS page on my website.
