I’ve been working on a secret project!

November was National Novel Writing Month, and I was a writing fiend for the last 30 days. I was working on a brand new story–a romance with some suspense elements. I wanted to write a fun, sexy tale…and I sure do hope it will appeal to you all! PROTECTING PIPER will officially release at the end of January.

I wanted to announce that the winner of my latest newsletter giveaway is:

BOOK NEWS!!!!! Behind-the-scenes info time!

My next paranormal romance, MIDNIGHT BITE, will be here on 12/18/18. Just in time for some holiday fun. So I thought I’d share some details about the book with you. (And if you have any questions, just comment!)

1. This is a stand-alone title. MIDNIGHT BITE is not linked with any other books that I’ve written. It’s just pure paranormal party-time. New Year’s Eve party-time, to be exact. 😘

2. MIDNIGHT BITE is a novella, but it’s not a short tale. The manuscript clocked in at over 40,000 words.

3. The hero is my favorite kind of vampire–sexy, dangerous, alpha, and willing to do just about anything for the woman he wants.

4. Buffy inspired the story. It’s no secret that I am a MAJOR Buffy fan, so one day I got to thinking and plotting…

In MIDNIGHT BITE, the heroine is the daughter of a famous monster hunter. Her mom kicked ass like no one’s business. Only the heroine (Lark) didn’t exactly inherit any of those killing skills. The idea behind MIDNIGHT BITE is…what happens when a monster hunter’s daughter falls for the enemy? When a vampire wants to claim her heart? I do love an enemies-to-lovers tale.

Here’s the full blurb for MIDNIGHT BITE. Hope you enjoy it:

A kiss on New Year’s Eve is supposed to be lucky…but a vampire bite? That’s not exactly something a woman dreams of getting. And when Lark Kinsley gets bit, all bets are off. She stakes her date, runs into the night, and tries to put the whole nightmare behind her.

Only she can’t.

Because she immediately runs into trouble—trouble in the form of a tall, dark, and deadly sexy vampire prince named Deveraux. He claims that he’s there to help her, but she’s not buying his story. The guy is no Prince Charming. After all, Prince Charming isn’t supposed to come with fangs and an appetite for blood. But Devereaux says that he’s been waiting centuries for her. That she is meant to rule with him. Obviously, he’s wrong. And possibly insane. She’s not meant to be the queen of the vamps. No matter what Deveraux says.

But he’s not the only one after her. Paranormal monsters are coming out of the woodwork. And the bite that she got? It’s making her feel strange. Hungry. Her self-control is shredding, and Lark knows she’s changing. She just doesn’t know what she’ll become.

The new year won’t go out with a bang…it will end with a bite.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is the official release of my new romantic suspense, DON’T LOVE A LIAR!

Ready for romance? Suspense? A little holiday magic?

She thinks his job is to protect her. It isn’t.

Remy St. Clair has been a criminal, a thief, and a killer. He’s been the hero who rushes in to save the day. He’s been the corporate CEO who runs the world. He’s been everything.

He’s been nothing.

That’s Remy’s talent. He’s a chameleon. He can become anyone, and he can do anything. Remy does whatever it takes to get the job done. He’s the FBI’s secret weapon.

This time, Kennedy Clarke is the job. Remy is supposed to get close to her and find out everything she knows about a killer who is turning Louisiana red with blood. Only Kennedy isn’t the woman Remy expects her to be. Not the rich party girl. She’s scared and lost, and she’s a victim in this tangled web. She wants someone to rely on. Someone who will help her when the whole world falls in flames around her.

She thinks Remy is that guy. She’s dead wrong. Remy is the one working against her even as he swears to protect her.

But the longer Remy is with Kennedy, pretending to be her protector, pretending to be the lover she needs, the more he wants her. Soon, even Remy isn’t sure what’s right and what’s wrong any longer.

The only thing he knows…he can’t let Kennedy go. Too bad he’s betraying the one woman he wants more than any other.

Ready for a dark and dangerous romantic suspense? Be careful who you trust, and remember that no one is really who you think in New York Times best-selling author Cynthia Eden’s DON’T LOVE A LIAR.
