Beyond Romance

March 17, 2025

Hello all my peeps and pups.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I've always loved the cultural celebration side of the holiday. On the fictional side, I've always felt that my stories had a strong link to Ireland. One of favorite clans of Valàfrn werewolves (The Eagle Clan) was from Ireland before they fled to Wales and then immigrated to the Americas. You can read about their travels in The Longest Journey.

We've been facing a little technical difficulties here with computers and wifi issues. But the weather has kept things interesting. From beautiful days that encouraged playing outside to one day with wild storms and tornado sightings. With all the unpredictable spring weather I've been doing as much outside spring cleaning as I can. I expect it will continue for as long as the warm sunny days persist.

This month my featured books are from the ACACIA trilogy. Today's feature is ACACIA III: Cravings. Read below to find out more about this spicy m/f/m vampire and shifter love story.

Read more and get distracted by the sun!

Father of the Wolf

After a traumatic injury as a teenager, Hope struggles every day against her fears, fighting to maintain her own
small safe world. But one night she’s suddenly attacked by what she can
only conclude were werewolves and her carefully controlled world
crumbles as she needs to make sense of a whole new set of world rules.
As if that isn’t hard enough to handle, when she finally meets the man
of her dreams, he has a fur coat and runs around on all fours…

Featured this Week

ACACIA III: Cravings

She needed them to fight for her people.
They wanted her body and her heart.

Queen Caitlin

My people, the vampires of Acacia, are my pride and joy. It's my duty to find a way to lead and protect them no matter what it takes. But war is threatening and I'm not sure my people will survive another fierce battle with the prolific humans. After they poison our blood supply and endanger ever vampire and human in the colony, I know something has to change.

Ross and Jemson Silvis

Life on Silvis Space Station had changed us into monsters capable of horrific violence. And then they sent our broken bodies home where we found a world ruled by humans and a moon sheltering vampires. Our people had been exterminated. The once gentle Valàfrn people were gone, leaving only the few like us who had chosen life as mercenaries.

When counter intelligence operations lead to the capture of two werewolf warriors, more dangerous than anything either side has ever seen before, Queen Caitlin sees an opportunity. She will do anything to protect her people, even if it means bartering her body to a pair of killers.

But will her submission be enough to buy their loyalty? Or will she have to sacrifice her heart as well?

Cravings is the third book in the ACACIA trilogy. Written in third person past tense, it tells a deeply emotional tale about how falling in love can lead to accepting yourself. Cravings is a m/f/m, RH, why choose paranormal science-fiction romance novella.

Tropes: enemies to lovers, reverse harem, why choose, royalty, soldier for hire, military.
