New Book Alert: DEAD LATE Coming October 17th!
I am absolutely over the moon to announce Dead Late, the chilling conclusion to my award-winning Things Unseen romantic thriller series, is coming out October 17th! Now available for Pre-Order!
Here's the blurb:
He’s forced to make an impossible choice—and the deadline is deadly.
Dr. Cornelius O'Brien brought his new girlfriend, psychotherapist Neve Keane, to his home country of Ireland for a romantic getaway. There’s just one thing they need to do first: a personal favor for the President of the United States.
It was supposed to be simple: check on the president’s goddaughter, who is struggling with a strange medical problem while studying abroad in Cork City. But with every step, Neve and Cornelius find themselves first slipping, then plummeting toward a terrifying, clandestine world at the abyss of human suffering.
Trapped by malicious forces he can't escape, Cornelius must make a terrible choice: violate the Hippocratic oath or put Neve in imminent danger. Left in the dark, Neve faces her own perilous dilemma: honor her promise to Cornelius or act quickly to keep an innocent young woman out of the hands of vicious murderers.
With no good options, they are forced to act. Meanwhile, the patient is prepped...and the clock is ticking.
Keep an eye out for announcements about the Cover Reveal, and when ARCs will be available for my Elite Street Team and Book Bloggers!
I can't wait to share with you the final installment in Neve and Con's adventures. I promise, you won't want to miss this one. Pre-Order Dead Late today!

Award Buzz for Thriller DEAD KEEN!
I’m absolutely delighted to share that Dead Keen, Book 2 in the Things Unseen Series, is a finalist in the New England Readers’ Choice Awards for Romantic Suspense and the HOLT Medallion contest for Novels with Strong Romantic Elements!
Warm congratulations to all of the finalists, and many thanks to the contest administrators and judges. I am thrilled to hear Dead Keen is being enjoyed, and so honored and overwhelmed by the recognition for this book that is so close to my heart! Here is more about the book:
They were meant to be traveling away from danger...
The Doctor
Con O'Brien returned to Ireland to help solve a medical mystery that could destroy his brother's life. He brought along his new girlfriend, Neve, to introduce her to his family and the country he calls home—and to put an ocean between her and the dangers still lurking in Washington, DC.
The Therapist
Neve Keane is convinced that the key to curing a baffling illness lies with an elusive video game designer in Galway. But getting his help means overcoming bad blood and broken hearts—and so far, he won’t answer his phone.
The Leader
When you've gained the favor of an ancient god, nothing and no one can stop you from getting what you want—even if you demand the ultimate sacrifice.
In their race to uncover sinister secrets, Con and Neve get trapped with their backs against the wall, and the water is rising. Now they must find a way to save themselves, rescue innocent victims, and stop a deadly evil in its tracks—all before sunrise tomorrow.
In other news, I am currently finalizing edits for DEAD LATE, the third book in the Things Unseen Series. DEAD LATE follows Neve and Cornelius to Cork City where a favor for the president turns into a perilous rescue mission. For updates on the publication of DEAD LATE, follow me or sign up for my newsletter on my website, https://AniseEden.com
I wish you all a beautiful and joyful spring, and happy reading!
Yours sincerely,
Anise

Interview in THE BIG THRILL & Free Audiobooks! :)
I’m delighted to share that my new interview in “The Big Thrill” is now live!
https://www.thebigthrill.org/2023/10/...
If you love author interviews, check it out to learn more about my process and my new romantic thriller release, Dead Keen, Book 2 in the Things Unseen Series. Here are a few snippets from the interview:
In DEAD KEEN, there is a medical/psychological mystery at the centre of the plot involving a woman who is self-injuring, but the reasons and triggers are unclear.
As both a former psychotherapist and someone who has struggled with mental health issues, I wanted to pull back the curtain on what is sometimes a mysterious world of diagnosis and treatment.
My passion for this couple and the work they do in mental health kept me fueled!
I hope you enjoy it!
Special note for audiobook fans:
If you’re on Audible, I have a limited number of UK and US codes for Dead Sound available. If you are interested in giving it a listen for free, email me at authoraniseeden @ gmail.com . While supplies last!
If you’re new to Audible, you can get DEAD SOUND free with a subscription by using these links:
In the US: https://adbl.co/3rFoyFu

Also, audiobook production of DEAD KEEN is nearly complete! Keep your ears open for news about that release in the coming months.
Happy reading and listening, and I hope you have a lovely October!
