And I always place the cover of that up-coming book on the last page, in the Author’s Notes, to let you know what’s coming. I generally don’t share my up-coming covers until after the current book has been released. However, this time, I have been so inundated with m Read more of this blog post »

“What kind of bait?” Bryce asked curiously. Jackson grinned. “Us.” “Wait—we’re the bait?” Bryce said sharply. “Unless you wanna go kidnap a tourist,” Jackson quipped. Bryce looked at him. “As tempting as that is—no.”
J.R. Rice, Bane County: Hungry Moon

“As Bryce limped forward, the large black dog watched him closely with an appraising eye, apparently assessing his worth as a member of the pack. “Why do I get the feeling your dog is thinkin’ about culling the herd?” Bryce said, hobbling forward.”
J.R. Rice, Bane County: First Moon

“When you weigh-in at 3300 pounds, a barbed-wire fence is more of a suggestion than a deterrent.”
