Cover Reveal: Lethal Pursuit
I just got my cover for Lethal Pursuit and I’m so excited to show it off to you all! I especially love the Apache attack helicopters at the bottom (they feature at the end of the book) and if you look closely on the hero’s left shoulder, you’ll see the infamous green footprints tattoo that says the Pararescue motto: That Others May Live. I’m so tickled that the artist worked it into the design.
Jackson does have the traditional green feet tat, but it’s in the traditional place–and that means it’s not on his shoulder! LOL. (Do you remember where it’s supposed to go on a PJ’s body?) It’s also a kind of special, modified version for this Texas boy.
Maya and Jackson’s story will be out September 16th and I can’t wait for you to read their story. It’s available for pre-order now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
I’m also halfway through Burned (Sean and Zahra’s story) and hope to have it finished by the end of August.
Minecraft Madness
First off, a huge thank you to all my readers for their support of my Titanium Security Series! To be honest I’m kind of stunned at the reception the books have received so far–stunned in the best way possible :).
I’m slowly but surely making headway on Burned, Sean and Zahra’s story but of course with my boys home all summer I don’t have as much time at the computer as I do when they’re in school. I also promised both of them I’d make them each a quilt to fit their beds. My 9 year old wanted a Minecraft quilt so last week I got out a piece of graph paper and drew up the quilt top on it for a “creeper” design.
On Monday afternoon I took the boys with me to the fabric shop and bought all the material for the top, then I went home and got busy cutting and piecing. On Tuesday I went back for the border fabric and bought the backing, batting and binding material as well. I used a black “minkee” fabric for the backing, layered and quilted the whole thing and finally put on the binding. Hand stitching the binding onto the backing to finish on Thursday took almost as long as it did to make the quilt top, but I can say beyond doubt that this quilt was handmade with love.
Luckily, big weasel was thrilled with it. I told him even if Minecraft is no longer “the” thing when he goes off to college, too bad, he still has to take it with him :).
I’ll be starting little weasel’s quilt next week but first I’ve got to make a serious dent in the draft of Sean and Zahra’s story!
Singed Is Here!!!
I’m thrilled to announce that the next book in my Titanium Security Series, Singed, is out now for only $2.99!
This is Gage and Claire’s story, both of whom you met in Ignited. It’s a reunion/second chance at love story (I love those so much!) and it also touches on the very serious epidemic of PTSD/suicide among our returning veterans today.
She walked away from him once…
Struggling to live with her decision to walk away from the only man she
ever loved and watching helplessly while her brother succumbs to his
battle with severe PTSD, NSA analyst Claire Tierney’s life is at an all
time low. The final hit comes when she accesses classified information
at work that might get her fired. Instead, she’s assigned to a joint
taskforce charged with hunting down a Taliban assassin planning an
attack on American soil, and finally has something productive to focus
on. Until she meets the rest of the team and learns she’ll be working
with the last person on earth she wants further contact with; her ex.
She knows letting him go was the biggest mistake of her life, but just
when she thinks things can’t get any worse, new intel points to the
assassin’s intended target. Her.
This time he’s not letting her go…
As a former Special Forces Master Sergeant and second-in-command of his
Titanium Security team, Gage Wallace can handle anything, except being
forced to go through life without Claire. When she abruptly walked out
on him six months ago, his whole world caved in. It’s clear she’s still
determined to keep her distance, but when she’s named a possible target
of the very cell they’re trying to dismantle, Gage will stop at nothing
to ensure she’s safe. When tragedy destroys Claire’s defenses and the
explosive desire between them ignites once more, this time he’s not
letting her go. Too late they discover that the danger confronting them
is far greater than anyone ever realized, and it’s a race against time
to stop a terrorist from unleashing hell on them all.
Available now at:
Hope you fall in love with this older, tattooed SF vet as much as I did!

Happy reading,

Skye
Sullivan knows that someone is watching her. Not just
watching–stalking her. Months ago, Skye was involved in a dangerous car
accident. The accident ended her dancing career and sent her fleeing
back to Chicago. Skye is convinced that her stalker caused the crash,
and she fears that he won’t stop pursuing her, not until she’s dead.
When
someone breaks into her apartment in Chicago, Skye turns to the one man
she believes can protect her–Trace Weston. Once, Trace was her lover.
Two lost souls, they’d come together in a firestorm of need and desire.
But then Trace had pushed her away. He’d joined the military, vanishing
from her life. She’d put all of her emotion into dancing, and she’d
tried to forget him.
Now Trace is one of the most successful men
in the United States. Rich, driven, and carrying dark secrets, he agrees
to help Skye. He’ll protect her from the danger that lurks in the
darkness, but Trace wants more than to just be a guard for Skye.
He
wants her. And he’ll take her. The years have changed him, hardened
him. He’s not just a poor kid from the streets any longer. Now, he can
have anything–or anyone–that he wants. And the one woman he has always
wanted has just come back into his life. He won’t let her go again.
But
with the threats mounting against Skye, she suspects that her stalker
may be intimately close. He’s a man who knows her too well. As his
attacks grow ever more dangerous, she realizes that if she trusts the
wrong man, she could be making a fatal mistake.
Lust. Love. Obsession.
Just how far would you go in order to possess the one person you want the most?
