Torn in Flames pre-order

I’m pleased to announce that Torn in Flames is now available for pre-order! I’ve got all the retailer links at the bottom of this post. At this time, the first five books in the series are in Kindle Unlimited and will remain there for a while. Torn in Flames will be wide everywhere until about a week after it releases, so those who don’t use Amazon have enough time to get their copy. After that, I’ll pull it from the other sites and put it in KU as well.

In case anyone missed it, the previous novel in the series (Captured in Flames) released in audio last week. You can find it at your preferred retailer as my audiobooks are not exclusive to Amazon and available in most places. As soon as I’ve finished edits for Torn in Flames, I will send the manuscript to my audio publisher, and they will get started on the recording process. It will likely be a couple of months after the ebook release before it’s available.

I’m very excited for you all to read this one as I really enjoyed writing it. Be sure to add it to your Goodreads TBR list here!

Cover reveal for Torn in Flames

I am excited to reveal the cover for the next installment (book 6) in the Dragon’s Breath Series. In 2016, I had the model shots taken for the rest of the series after book two. Thankfully, I had a good idea how each novel’s story would play out so I could have the model pose just right for the images I had in my head. In this one, I always knew there would be a small dragon with her. It was very exciting to finally see my vision come to life.

You’ll find the summary and other book release details below. Hope you all like the cover as much as I do!

The Dragon’s Breath Series is in Kindle Unlimited!

For those who have been waiting, I’ve got all of the Dragon’s Breath Series in Kindle Unlimited now, so if you haven’t gotten a chance to read some or all of the books, and you have membership, this is your chance. They will likely stay in the program for at least six months. When I release Torn in Flames, it will be wide with all the retailers for non-Amazon readers to pick up their copies, but after a couple of weeks I’ll move that ebook over to KU as well.

At this point, I’m looking at a January release date for Torn in Flames. I’ve gotten this question a lot (no surprise there) and wanted you all to have an estimate of when to expect it. For now, I’ve got the first two chapters available for anyone to read on my website, and they come in at almost 10,000 words. That gives you a pretty decent excerpt of the next book and an idea of how things will go moving forward.

Writing and publishing updates for September 2022

I’ve got a few news items for you all. Mostly, it relates to the Dragon’s Breath Series, but also a side note about the Sensor Series.

First, Stalked by Flames is no longer free and back to its regular price. I hope everyone who wanted a copy managed to grab it over the last few weeks. In the coming days, I am going to start pulling the Dragon’s Breath Series off of the other retailers so I can start enrolling the eBooks in Kindle Unlimited. This is going to happen one at a time, so those who are still working their way through the series from Nook, Kobo, etc have a reasonable chance to get the next installments before they’re gone. After that, the series will only be available on Amazon. I know times are tough right now, and for some readers, it’s easier to borrow books.

For those who have already read Captured in Flames, I’m sure you’d like an estimated release date. I’m shooting to have Torn in Flames out by Christmas, but I won’t say for certain until I’m farther along in the book. I know many of you are itching to find out what occurs next, though, so I have posted the first two chapters (almost 10k words) on another page on this site. You can read them here. I’m working on the novel every chance I get because I definitely don’t want the wait to be long for this one!

Also in regards to that, Torn in Flames is the sixth installment and then there will be one more afterward to wrap up Bailey and Aidan’s story (making the total seven). I plan to do a spin-off with Galadon as well once the main series is complete. His will be more romance focused, but still plenty of action. If all goes well, book 7 and his novel will come out next year (2023).

As for the Sensor Series, some people have been asking if I’m totally done with it. Obviously, I’ve had a lot of other things going on with my life and needed to wrap up the Dragon’s Breath Series first before considering anything else. Having said that, I’m still wanting to do at least one book with Kerbasi because he’s fun and the most requested. Please let me know your thoughts.
