Happy Halloween! I hope your weekend will only be filled with the very best kind of treats.

Speaking of treats…for Halloween weekend, I have made my romantic suspense, LIE CLOSE TO ME, a FREE read over at Amazon! LIE CLOSE TO ME is in my “Lazarus Rising” series–books about super soldiers.

They’re strong, they’re sexy…they’re the government’s secret weapons. Ready to meet the Lazarus team? Super soldiers have never been so hot…or so deadly.

He’s Lazarus, and so is she. What happens when their worlds collide?

He’s hunting her. Maddox Kane has one goal—track Luna Ashton. He’s the best hunter on his team, finely honed and designed by Uncle Sam to be an unstoppable killing machine. He’s a super solider—faster, stronger, and deadlier than anyone else. Maddox keeps his emotions under careful lock and key because he can’t afford to feel. Feeling is too dangerous, and the attraction Maddox feels for Luna is positively lethal.

Luna has no memory of being in the labs with Maddox. She doesn’t remember the connection they shared when they were trapped in hell. She doesn’t remember escaping the facility. She doesn’t remember him. So when Maddox hunts her down, she’s terrified of him…and of the strange psychic and sensual connection they seem to share. Surely she shouldn’t want him so much?

Luna is different from the other Lazarus subjects, and Maddox isn’t the only one hunting her. She’s a dangerous threat to Project Lazarus, and Luna isn’t going to be allowed to just slip away from the U.S. government…or from the other super soldiers who are also desperate to find her. Every Lazarus subject has incredible psychic gifts. Some Lazarus subjects can make people see their worst fears, some can control minds…but Luna’s gift—she can show people their memories. Luna has the ability to restore memories to all of the other Lazarus subjects, yet she can’t see her own past.

And if you can’t see your past…then you never know what danger is coming, what killer is standing right next to you, touching you, lying to you…not until it is too late.

Paranormal romance RERELEASE news! I told you recently that I was working to rerelase some of the titles that I had previously published–and I’ve got one of those romances available for you now. Just in time for Halloween!

WICKED WAYS was originally released all the way back in 2008 (it was in the WHEN HE WAS BAD anthology that was published by Kensington). I received the rights back to the story, and I’m excited to bring it to readers again.

This is one of my earliest published works–and I hope you enjoy stepping out on the wild side with Cain and Miranda.

𝐏𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞: 𝐍𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐖𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐄𝐃 𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝟑𝟕,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬. 𝐈𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐮𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞.

And here’s the blurb for you…

𝐈’𝐦 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞.

I’m too dangerous for her. I know it, but I can’t get my sexy new neighbor out of my head. When I hear her scream one night, the absolute last thing I expect to see is Miranda Shaw—star of my hottest fantasies—being attacked by a vampire.

𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨.

Now the undead jerk is after her, and I’m the only thing standing between the beautiful lady and a killer who just won’t stop. Well, too bad for him, because that vamp has just made the worst mistake of his afterlife–he’s tangled with a shifter.

𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞.

And Miranda, well, she’s so busy watching out for him that she won’t see me closing in on her—not until it’s too late—and I’m about to show her just how wild I can get…
