Beyond Romance

March 3, 2025

Hello all my peeps and pups.

The weather has been improving a bit here in Western PA. It gets me excited about all the upcoming farm projects. With the birds, ponds and garden, it's bound to be wonderfully busy. Oh, and this will be year four with the orchard too. We might get our first harvest.

Here it is the third of March and I'm already thinking about harvest.

Writing is coming along after a short bumpy patch. I was hoping to be finishing the Amethyst Unveiled edits around now but I'm still in the drafting stage. My characters decided to be a bit naughty which led to a delay. But the good news is their naughtiness will likely lead to a couple short side stories which I will share with you all first.

PRE-ORDER

This month I will be featuring the three novellas in the ACACIA trilogy. Read more about them below. I was all prepared to share how they were an outlier in my book universe because they are currently my only futuristic sci-fi stories. But then I realized that isn't true. I also have Forever Eden and a few more outlined for future projects. I guess my book universe covers everything from my Origin stories set in mythic pre-history all the way to ACACIA set 1000 years from now. Though most are set in modern and recent historic times.

Shifter Romance

My werewolf stories tend to be action based male/female committed love stories. They will often involve strong family bonds and show characters overcoming painful pasts in order to find love.

Vampires and Demons

My demon and vampire stories tend to be spicy and sexy, full of passion and danger. These could be male/female, male/male, or and variety of pairings that the characters enjoy.

Sweet Paranormal

Yes, I do write some sweet stories too. These are often short stories and can showcase a more innocent kind of romance that will usually still result in a sweeter kind of passion.

Featured this Week

ACACIA I: Abducting Aeron

He'd risk everything for the mission. She'd do the same for his heart.

Aeron

To protect my people, I went undercover among the humans. One of our most respected doctors had gone missing. Finding him might lead to the dangerous group that had been endangering the fragile truce between the humans on the planet and the vampires on the moon colony. Failure was not an option.

I know exactly how important the mission is. So why do I keep allowing myself to be distracted by my planet-side contact? My success is just as important to her. So why does she insist on being so damn irresistible?

Helia

He's a vampire and I'm human. Our people fought a long blood war over our planet and barely manage to maintain any sort of peace. But I need him and he needs me. It should be about that simple give and take. I keep him hidden and safe while he finds my missing father.

But there is nothing simple about what I feel for him. I yearn for his touch just as much as he hungers for my blood. Being together is a crime but I can't help to imagine staying by his side. Leaving my family and planet behind. Following him to the vampire colony and becoming his... nothing more than a slave...?

Abducting Aeron is a fast paced futuristic sci-fi m/f vampire romance novella, the first in the ACACIA trilogy. If you love action based enemies to lovers with paranormal intrigue and plenty of spice, you'll love Abducting Aeron.
