Another Pen Name
If you've enjoyed my contemporary romance, I've just released a new MC (Motorcycle Club) biker series under the pen name of Cassie Alexandra. This is quite a bit more... grittier than my other books, and the original cover was very provocative, so that's why I'd decided to use a different pen name (and for advertising purposes). The cover has since been re-designed, but the books are definitely for ages 18 and older. You can find the first book, Resisting The Biker, in most online ebook stores.
The Biker Series -
Twenty-one-year-old college student, Adriana Nikolas, doesn't really know what to make of Raptor, the sexy biker who seems to be obsessed with getting into her pants. Hot or not, she knows from their first encounter that he's dangerous, both in AND out of bed.
What Raptor wants, Raptor gets. Right now, he wants Adriana and will do whatever it takes to claim her as his woman. But, she keeps resisting, which isn't something that the Road Captain of the Gold Vipers is accustomed to. Arrogant, cocky, and stubborn, Raptor takes on the challenge, and in the meantime, gets much more than what he'd bargained for.

Clinton Daily News
This article in The Clinton Daily News, was just brought to my attention and I'll be honest - I'm tickled pink! So is Blayze Watkins, a young man who inspired me to write my book, Planet Z. He wrote to me a couple of years ago, when I was first starting out in my career, and we've kept in touch. He has a passion for writing himself, and I really wanted to do something special, so I named a character after him and dedicated the book, as well. Anyway, if you're interested in reading Planet Z, it's now available on Amazon!

Frostbite - Current Project
Just an update on what I'm currently working on, Frostbite. I'm really enjoying this one as it's strictly horror and I haven't really had that since my Zombie Series.
When four longtime
friends decide to take their annual snowmobile trip at the Boundary Waters of
Minnesota, their excitement is cut short after making a wrong turn during an
unexpected snow storm. Cold and low on fuel, they chance upon a cabin nestled
deep in the woods, where two sisters offer them a warm refuge. As they settle
in for the night, the men soon realize that they’ve stepped out of the cold and
into something much more chilling than the icy blizzard raging outside.
Here's a sample from this book. It hasn't been edited, so please forgive the grammar errors.
***
Paul stared up into the cold darkness, confused.
Where in
the hell am I?
Raising himself up onto his elbows, he noticed that he was
surrounded by a curved wall of icy dirt. From the look of things, he was in
some kind of old well, twenty or so feet below ground. As the terrifying memories of earlier
resurfaced, he tried getting up and cried out as a wave of crippling pain
surged through the ligaments of his left ankle, reminding him how he’d twisted
it earlier.
“Oh, good. You’re
awake!” called a pleasant voice from above. “Sybil! The young man. He’s
regained consciousness!”
Paul’s head jerked up toward the middle-aged woman’s voice.
The one he was sure he’d left dead in a ditch. But, here she was still
breathing and, from the look of things, he was at her mercy and in very deep
shit.
“Oh, look at that. Yes he is,” replied her equally psychotic
sister, Sybil, now also staring down at him with glee. “Paul, isn’t it? I’m so
glad to see that you’ve pulled through. We were getting worried about you.”
Glaring up at her, he flipped her off.
“Constance, make sure we have enough coals,” she said,
ignoring him.
“For the Weber?” asked Constance, shivering as a gust of
wind whipped her frizzy orange hair across her face. She pulled her shawl
tightly around her shoulders.
“Yes. I’m in the mood to grill,” replied Sybil, her lips
pulled back into a ghoulish grin.
Constance clapped her hands together and did a little dance,
like a child excited about Christmas. “I can’t wait! This one is already making
my mouth water. Can I have his heart?”
“No. We’re going to split it, like usual.”
“I don’t think we split the heart, the last time. In fact, I
think you ate the entire thing yourself,” she pouted.
Sybil clenched her jaw. “Are you saying that I’m
lying?”
Constance hesitated. “No. Not exactly. I think you just
forgot.”
Sybil raised her hand and Paul sucked in his breath when he
saw the large hunting knife pointed at the other woman.
“You wouldn’t,” laughed Constance.
Paul watched in shock as the woman grabbed her sister's
throat and held the knife up to her cheek. “Wouldn’t I?”
Constance was amazingly calm but no longer smiling.
“Sybil?”
Roaring with laughter, she let her go and dropped the knife.
“You know, “said Sybil, putting an arm around her shoulders. “I believe you’re
correct! I did eat that last one’s heart, all by myself. You take this one’s
and I’ll have his liver. We’ll freeze the rest.”
“We play first, though, right?”
“Yes. Of course we’ll play.”
“You’re crazy. Both
of you!” he hollered, staring up at them in horror. “If you think that I’m
going to let you… eat me, you’re insane!”
Sybil looked down at him and her smile widened. “Dear boy, we
enjoy resistance. It makes everything much more exciting and fun. I’m surprised
that you haven’t already figured that out yet, Paul.”
“Yes,” agreed Constance, now holding the hunting knife. She
touched the blade with her index finger, drawing blood. “The meal is something
to look forward to,” she said, licking her finger, “but nothing beats the
thrill of the hunt.”
Paul watched as Sybil threw a thick rope down into the well.
“It gets real boring out here, Paul. So, you see, not only do we need to eat,
but we also need to be entertained. I guess you could say that we enjoy playing
with our food,” She grinned evilly. “So, tell us … are you ready to come out
and play?”

24 Days of Christmas Author Showcase
Day Eleven - Me
So, it's the eleventh day of the showcase and I feel really honored to be invited. I typically don't do many blog-hops or or author take-overs, because I feel a little silly saying too much about myself. What I can say is that I love, love, love writing and interacting with my readers. I enjoy getting emails and answering questions, especially from teens who are developing a new passion for books or maybe even writing. I still remember how much I loved reading and writing stories of my own, growing up. I started so many books but then gave up on them, wondering why I was wasting my time. I'd never completed a chapter, let alone an entire book, until I decided to write one for fun in 2011; one that was inspired by my own children. Oh, and zombies. I'd just seen a movie called Zombieland (what a cool movie!) and knew that I had to throw them into the mix. Anyway, all I really wanted to do was write a book and give it to my kids, the following Christmas, as a tribute to them. Something we could laugh about one day. Well, when I showed the story to a friend of mine, she talked me into sharing it with others and I took the plunge. I published it on Amazon and, frankly, couldn't believe the reviews. They were pretty darn good. I mean, there were a couple of bad ones because I hadn't hired an editor at that time, but the reviews on the story itself were enough to make me continue writing. Well, it pretty much changed my life, because in 2013, I was able to quit my job and became a full-time writer. It's been a dream come true and I feel so grateful to everyone who's helped me along the way, especially my readers. It just goes to show that if you have a passion for something, it just might be your destiny. You just never know...
This brings me to my giveaway. I'm offering the complete set of Zombie Games (all 5 Ebooks). This series holds a special place in my heart. Not only did the first book spark a renewed passion for writing, it made me realize that I could step out of my comfort zone and share it with others. It also made me realize that my imagination is pretty freaken strange at times. Anyway, I hope that you enjoy reading the series as much as I enjoyed writing it!
For a chance to win Zombie Games (The Complete Ebook Series), including my Enchanted Secrets ebook, tell us what you love about the holidays (being with family, winter break, giving presents, baking cookies, Christmas songs, etc). Also, don't forget to enter to win a free Kindle!

Kindle Unlimited Program
Okay, so I signed up for the Kindle Unlimited Program. What is that? For $9.99 a month, readers can read as many books as they want on titles that are enrolled in the program. The only catch is, I can't put my titles in other estores. The good news is, if you normally read on your phone or have a Nook, or other type of ereader, you can download a free app that will allow you to read any of the Amazon books, even if you do not have a Kindle. So, those of you who do not typically use Amazon for purchasing books, but still want to read some of my books, you can now do so as the APP will make them work on other devices. I found my Kindle Reading App on Google Play. You can also download directly from Amazon HERE
If you are interested in checking out the Kindle Unlimited Program click here.
My reason for doing this is that there are already tens-of-thousands of people signing up for the program. You can even try it out for 30 days. If you're an avid book-reader, it really does save you money in the long run as well. It's nice because you can also cancel at any time if you're not absolutely thrilled with it. I've heard that most people are liking the program, however, so it's something that might be worth checking out.
Other than that - I hope everyone has a great weekend and a fun Halloween! Don't forget to download a great spooky book to enjoy later in the evening!

I uploaded Tangled Fury early this morning to Amazon, Barnesandnoble.com,
Itunes, etc... and they aren't quite available yet (hopefully will be in the
next couple of hours). If you don't want to wait, it is available at smashwords.com... This one is longer, over 70k words, and specially priced as it
hasn't been fully edited. Once it is, the price will go up to $3.99
(Early July). So, if you can get past a missing comma or an extra space,
get it while it's only $.99. Here is smaswords link, you can download
in most formats. Hope you enjoy and leave a review if you have time
(preferable on Amazon). Thanks everyone!!!https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/449568

Tangled Fury Release Date Wednesay June 18th.
Good news - the book is finished! It's also the
longest I've written and will be on sale for only $.99 from 6/18
through the end of June. Bad news is that I will not dishonor this
series without cleaning it up during the next three days. It's a
diamond in the rough,but I'm hoping it will sparkle on Wednesday at
12pm Central Time. Sorry, no pre-orders available, but since the book is
finished, I'm confident that it will be on your Nooks and Kindles
beginning WEDNESDAY at noon, Central time! Thanks for your patience! XX
