Hi all,
I'm thrilled to announce I just signed a contract with JMS Publishing for my latest story entitled Dark's Destiny! This has been an epic story and one that embraced a new genre for me--fantasy!
We're aiming for May, 2023 for a release date. I'll definitely keep you posted.
Oh, in case you're wondering what's next. Well, I started a brand new Misfit Shifters story and it's moving along nicely. I'm excited to return to the world of the Bluebird Valley Preserve and all the unusual, but addictive characters that make that sanctuary their home.
Here's the unofficial blurb for those wanting a sneak peek of Dark's Destiny:
Steeped in magical talent but cursed by a prophesy, Dark would much rather fix up old houses than enter the melee between good and evil in the realm of wizardry. Too bad fate had other ideas the second he stepped into the small town bookstore to collect an ancient spell book and found a woman that not only possessed remarkable gifts, but also brightened up his dull life with her mere presence. Protecting her from evil wizards would be difficult enough, but an easy task compared to guarding his heart.
Destiny Jones’s life has been a roller coaster of late, after taking over her late, great aunt’s bookstore. Then a mystical customer shows up to collect a previously purchased book and Destiny knows he’s trouble. The extent of her magical experience includes rumors of low-wattage witches in the family, unless one cared to include her ability to hold two-sided conversations with her cat. Now, she finds herself reading runes in ancient spells and facing off against scary dark wizards in her spare time.
Dark’s burdened with ensuring the balance of good and evil. His prophesy is clearly written and his fate spelled out from his birth—to stand against the evil forces, he’d sacrifice his sanity and most likely his life. Yet, this bright light of sunshine, named Destiny, inspires him to defy all that and fight for the greatest reason of all.
