Will there be a book about Chief Tor and Rayne the chauffeur of The Retreat ?
L.M. Somerton Hi Anna, Tor and Rayne do feature in the 3rd Retreat book, which I'm working on at the moment, but they aren't the central characters. They will get their moment one day, so long as Rayne doesn't drive Tor barmy first! Best wishes, Lu

Thank you for responding. I did find it finally, purchased it and read it through in one sitting that same day. Loved it! Also have been working my way through your Tales from the Edge series which I found when researching Alistar and Carey's story. Can't wait for the next in the Retreat series! Will there be more Edge stories or have your transitions to the Retreat now? Thank you for answering my questions.
L.M. Somerton Hi Renel! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. The Edge isn't over - I don't think I could ever let my guys go, and of course a wedding needs to happen - but it may be a while before they reappear. Book #9 is plotted but I have a few other commitments first. Best wishes, Lu xx

Do you know when The Retreat - Serving Him will be released? Amazon showed a July 24th release date but it isn't available yet. Thanks so much
L.M. Somerton Hi Renel, apologies for the delay in responding, I've only just had a notification of your question. I've checked the UK and US sites and they seem fine - hope this has resolved for you. Alternatively, you can buy through Pride Publishing. Thanks for your interest :) LM

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?
L.M. Somerton Mantrap was written in response to a request from my publisher for a short, steamy biker story but the idea for The Wyverns came from a picture I saw of a particularly impressive dragon tattoo!
