Winter Hawk (Evidence #9) is just 99c!

The 99c ebook sale ends December 19th, and the Audiobook sale on Chirp ends January 4th.

Raptor operative Nate Sifuentes isn’t thrilled to find himself back on the job on the first day of his winter vacation, but he can’t say no when his brother asks a favor. At least he’ll earn an easy Christmas bonus—after all, driving a fired military contractor home after she’s been escorted off base by military police can’t be that hard.

In a matter of minutes, Leah Ellis has lost everything, and now she’s stranded in the nation’s capital on the first night of Hanukkah without money, phone, or bed. All she has is a mysterious driver who might be after her technical knowledge of the US military’s drone operations.

The former Green Beret’s protective instincts—and skills—kick in when he discovers the alluring AI engineer is being hunted. On the run, they escape the winter cold by generating their own heat, but will they find answers in time to stop a terror attack on Christmas Day?

Archaeologist Fiona Carver has unfinished business in the Aleutian Islands. After an emergency evacuation cut her first expedition short, she’s finally back. But time is not on her side as she races to finish documenting the remnants of a prehistoric village, recover missing artifacts, and track down missing volcanologist Dylan Slater.

Having bluffed his way onto Fiona’s team with fake credentials, wildlife photographer Dean Slater is willing to risk more than federal prison to find his missing brother, but he needs Fiona’s help. She knows the inhospitable terrain better than anyone.

When the two set out together on a perilous journey, it becomes more than a recovery mission. In their fight for survival, nature isn’t the only threat. They aren’t the only ones on the hunt. Mile by dangerous mile, someone is hunting them.

For archaeologist Fiona Carver, the Caribbean glistens with untold menace in a heart-racing novel by Rachel Grant, USA Today bestselling author of Dangerous Ground.

Fiona Carver has landed a dream assignment: conducting an archaeological inventory of Ruby Island, a privately owned, pristine gem in the Caribbean. Two months in paradise exploring and mapping a lush rain forest, vast caves, and a seventeenth-century star fort and following up on legends of hidden Spanish gold. Add a simmering reunion with wildlife photographer Dean Slater and it’s enough to take Fiona’s breath away. But the sparkle fades when Dean’s arrival is met with sudden, terrifying danger.

Reunited and determined to see the project through, Fiona and Dean find themselves in a swirl of intrigue as they delve into the complex history of the unspoiled refuge, now a tropical haven for billionaires and their secrets. But the work isn’t easy, as someone appears determined to kill the project—by any means necessary.

As betrayal casts tropical storm clouds over Ruby Island and treasured friendships dissolve into distrust, one thing becomes clear: Fiona and Dean are trapped in a dangerous paradise.

When a food storage depot in famine-struck South Sudan is torched, American aid worker Brie Stewart flees, only to land in a market where she’s the next item up for auction. Is the attack on the aid facility another assault upon the war-torn fledgling democracy, or has her family set her up as a pawn in their quest for oil rights?

Chief Warrant Officer Sebastian Ford crossed paths with Brie years ago when she was a shill for her family’s company, pushing a pipeline that threatened his tribe’s land. Determined to lead the rescue operation to save her, he won’t let her abduction—or the attraction that flares between them—get in the way of settling their unfinished business.

The Green Beret’s skills are put to the test in the flooded grasslands of South Sudan, where they must battle nature and dangerous factions who are after more than oil. Bastian and Brie put their hearts on the line as they find themselves embroiled in a conflict that extends beyond country and continent. Together they must douse the spark before it reaches the flashpoint and engulfs everything they hold dear.

Chase Johnston is leading a double life. After two years of psychological torment, the quiet, highly skilled Raptor operative now has a darker side, and he’s hellbent on bringing sex-traffickers to justice—using any means necessary. The only relief he finds for his troubled mind is a woman he’ll never meet in person.

Eden O’Keeffe is also leading a double life. By day she’s a grad student and barista, but at night she sits in front of a camera and provides companionship for those seeking entertainment, titillation, or simple conversation. She enjoys the freedom of being a siren online, but her secret career comes with risks that force her to hide her true identity at all costs.

When Chase walks into a coffee shop and comes face to face with the one person who makes him feel again, it seems his long nightmare may be coming to an end. But in entering Eden’s world, he’s bringing that nightmare—and the danger that comes with it—to her doorstep.

Three Great Book Recommendations

Jenn Stark is part of a brand-new werewolf anthology!

The brand-new werewolf anthology HIGH MOON is on SALE – only .99!

My friend Jenn Stark is part of this fun new anthology of eight exclusive novellas by today’s top urban-fantasy authors.

“Fox Hunt” by Aimee Easterling – Mai’s life revolves around acting human and teaching fencing to middleschoolers. Then a student goes missing just as werewolves start breathing down her neck. Can she hunt the hunters without revealing her identity as a fox?

“Wereabouts Unknown” by Jenn Stark – Having strutted her way from cop to carny fortune teller to the newest, most fabulous member of a group of Tarot mystics, Nikki Dawes has the world in the palms of her bedazzle-gloved hands. But now a pack of displaced werewolves is relying on her to find the rest of their kind. Can she reunite those snarly, sexy beasts in time to win the war on magic?

“Elemental Witch” by B R Kingsolver – After a magical disaster puts Joanna’s future in jeopardy, the Supernatural Council gives her a second chance at Midleton College. New friends, a hot wolf shifter, and a serene campus grow on her fast. Then some fool summons a demon. Can Joanna clean up the mess before the demon kills her friends?

“Dragon Tears” by Marina Finlayson – New wolf Nat Turner jumps at the chance to escape her controlling pack when she’s offered a job as bodyguard to a powerful dragon. But her dream job becomes a nightmare when she realises she must also protect the magical gems known as dragon tears that contain his power. Because holy hell, does that man have a lot of enemies.

“Lunaticking” by Dale Ivan Smith – Sorcerer-Agent Elizabeth Marquez tracks illegal wolf-men manifestations. Shifter Chloe must find her kidnapped pack leader. Together, these two wielders of different magics must find the supernatural culprits behind both crimes, and stop a far greater one from happening.

“Prowl” by N. R. Hairston – Wereskunk Anise is constantly ducking werewolves and vampires intent upon harvesting her high-dollar skunk oil. Will alpha werewolf Brick really help, or is he just another poacher hunting her?

“Full Moon’s Curse” by Jenn Windrow – Sometimes the cure is worse than the curse. Cursed by a witch on a power kick, Julia Monroe has twenty-four hours to kill the leader of the local coven. If she fails, she’ll be forced to live as a wolf for the rest of her life. If she succeeds, she’ll be excommunicated from her pack and her family.

“A Myth in Moonlight” by Becca Andre – Leena knows that mythical creatures don’t exist – not in the modern magical world. But when the old werewolf myth proves to have some…bite, she must reexamine her beliefs to break an improbable curse before it runs wild in Cincinnati.

Serena Bell has a new release!

I absolutely loved this sexy romcom by Serena Bell!! WHAT is Rachel selling on Brody’s boat??? Let me know when you find out…….

What’s a bad boy doing hosting a book club on his boat? Excellent question. All I can tell you is, it’s not going well. I forgot the bug wipes, the extra TP, and the hand sanitizer, we’re out of wine, and… well, I may have made some people angry, if the reviews are any indication. The only way to dig myself out of this hole is to redeem myself by offering the best girls’ nights out in town.

Enter my best friend’s sister. I’ve gone out of my way to avoid Rachel, since despite her good-girl rep, I can’t seem to get her out of my head. Now she’s in my boat… and if I don’t watch myself, soon she’ll be in my bed. Things are going surprisingly well between us… but I know myself, and I’m not this guy. I’m the guy you want for fantasy fulfillment, not the guy you want for forever.

But what if I need this time to be different?

Toni Anderson has a new Cold Novel!!

Cold as Ice: FBI Romantic Thriller (Cold Justice – The Negotiators Book 5)

When Darby O’Roarke wakes up in a strange house with a dead man – with no memory of what happened – she knows who she has to call: FBI Supervisory Special Agent Eban Winters…the man she fell for, and who rejected her, last summer.

A negotiator isn’t supposed to get involved with kidnap victims, and Eban has been trying to avoid the temptation that is Darby O’Roarke ever since they met. One frantic phone call has him racing to Alaska to uncover the truth, but he faces stubborn opposition from the local police, and a growing media frenzy.

Getting Darby released from jail and keeping her safe is his first priority. When another woman is brutally slain, evidence emerges that suggests Darby is being framed, and that the culprit is a vicious serial killer who has eluded the FBI for more than a decade…and, now, the killer has Darby in their sights.

A New Release from Louise Dawn

Louise Dawn has a new release and it looks amazing! STRIKING BLOW is book 2 of her Strike Zone Series.

As a teenager, Pearl escaped her small Colorado town for a glamorous career as a model. Now, a decade later, she’s a divorced single mother, with a target on her back. Hiding from her ex-husband—a war criminal—will take all of her efforts. But, she’s not alone—her tiny daughter is not alone. A hardened diplomatic agent steps in to help and Pearl finds comfort in his sheltering protection.

DSS Agent, Antonio Torres, doesn’t do sentimental, sweet, or angelic. His brutal past and militaristic lifestyle leave little room for tenderness. When a friend asks for a favor, escorting the terrified woman and her child to the States, Antonio cannot refuse. Despite their heated attraction, getting involved with the pretty socialite and her tangled past is not an option. After escorting Pearl Bandara to the US, he’ll walk away. Job done and favor repaid. So why does he feel like he’s throwing her to the wolves.

As their world turns upside down, Pearl and Antonio struggle with their heated desires. And a mercenary army in pursuit forces them to flee. The odds are stacked against them, and the capable agent will give up his life to save both mother and child. Will they survive the hunt?

DANGEROUS GROUND Audiobook News

I am so thrilled to share with you that DANGEROUS GROUND has THREE narrators: Eva Kaminsky, A.T. Chandler, and Michele Yatchmeneff. Romance audiobook fans will likely be familiar with Eva Kaminsky and A.T. Chandler (although they might be more familiar with A.T.’s work as Aiden Snow). I’m a huge fan of both narrators and am thrilled they were cast as Fiona and Dean! ?

In addition, I am deeply honored that Michele Yatchmeneff narrated a pivotal scene in the story that was written from the point of view of a Unangax? woman. There aren’t enough words to convey how over the moon I am that Brilliance Audio, my audiobook publisher, went the extra mile to cast a woman from the community to voice the role! ?

CONCRETE EVIDENCE News

Audiobook rights to CONCRETE EVIDENCE recently reverted to me, and as it was the only book in the Evidence Series that wasn’t narrated by Nicol Zanzarella, I was eager to have it re-recorded. As an audiobook listener, I’m a big fan of dual narration, and I also love Greg Tremblay’s work on the Flashpoint Series, so this felt like the perfect opportunity to ask both Nicol and Greg to narrate the book. I’m so thrilled they both were eager for the project and listening to them voice Erica and Lee felt like a homecoming of sorts. (And they’re teaming up again for BROKEN FALCON which will be out October 22nd!)

I took the opportunity to do some light revisions of the book and added an epilouge that I had only been able to offer as a separate bonus while the original audiobook was under contract. Readers have long wanted a little more of Erica and Lee’s happily ever after and I’m happy to share that you can now download the updated ebook and purchase the new audiobook.

The ebook of CONCRETE EVIDENCE is free at all etailers!
