Beyond Romance

February 17, 2025

Hello all my peeps.

We had a glimpse of hope (spring) and then back into the fray (of winter). Yep, its still winter here in Western PA. Just like that dang groundhog (and the calendar) said it would be. So it's back to carrying water and breaking ice and shoveling snow. Still hubby has the maple buckets set up so I'm looking forward to pancakes with homemade syrup in a month or so.

The writing is coming along nicely but I've been struggling with an old bad habit. I keep getting distracted by other stories that I'd love to chase after for a while. Some of you longtime reader peeps might remember my early days when I would start several different series and not focus on what at a time. Yep, those were some lovely joyful dark days. For four years I've been good. So don't get worried just because I'm yearning for the good ol' days of naughty ADHD writing.

Amethyst Reborn is releasing this Friday, February 21st. If you haven't grabbed that pre-order yet, what are you waiting for? Read book two while I finish up book three.

Read more and dream of something warm!

Blood Royals: book three

Blood Justice

He was ready for death if he couldn't have redemption.

After Sadaen tires of seeking vengeance, all that remains is his longing for justice and the slim possibility of redemption. He finds both in the
arms of an angel determined to execute him. Lyna is convinced he
deserves to die, and she’ll do anything to bring him to that final
justice, even if it means betraying everything she holds dear.

Despite their long history of combat, he’s sure that only Lyna can offer him a future worthy of his past. He’ll either burn as the rogue demon he’s become or redeem himself through the flames of her passion. His only hope is to bind them together with a deal that could destroy them both.

Blood Justice is the third and final novella in the Blood Royals trilogy. "Overall, *Blood Justice* is a gripping, emotional ride that I’d recommend to fans of dark paranormal romance or anyone who enjoys morally complex characters and high-stakes drama." *mentalhealthpulp

Triggers and warnings: violence, vivid emotional battle scenes, discussions of loss and suicide, enemy to lover.

Six Sentence Sunday (opening)

Dead.

Raylina, his wife and mate of countless centuries, was dead and gone. Sadaen’s demon heart cried out at the unexpected cruelty. How could she be taken? Why? Questions swirled through him, but each was a knife slashing through his soul.

If you have time, please leave a review or rating for Blood Justice. After its release in 2022, this story has had lots of readers but very few ratings and no reviews. I'd love to see what you think of this dark paranormal romance.
