<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I'm so excited! The release of Testing Fate is getting closer and closer!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For those who haven't seen it yet, here's the official blurb ...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">Nothing burns as bright as the flames of the refiner’s fire.</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></i></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">Moments after hearing the Council sentence her enemy to life imprisonment for attempted murder and illegal use of magic, Darcy is whisked away by the Fates—accused of tampering with destiny. The cherished dream she shared with Mason has been called into question, placing doubt about whether they are actually true mates. To resolve it, a price must be paid—the Heart or Death—a grueling series of tests designed to reveal a person’s worth.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">The stakes are high and Darcy finds herself facing the unknown in conditions that leave her more vulnerable than she’s ever been. Separated from Mason and her Pack, with Devlin as her only companion, she is pushed to her very limits. She must succeed—or lose everything.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">Will she crumble under the pressure or emerge stronger for testing fate?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></i></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; line-height: 18px;">Stay tuned - next week I'll be announcing the release date!</span></div>

<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I just wanted to touch base with everyone - a central place with a little more freedom than private messages and Facebook walls. I guess by now we all know it's December and there's still no clear release date for <strong>Testing Fate</strong> ...</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: large;"><strong>What does that mean?</strong></span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
It means I really don't like being vague. Whenever I'm asked, my standard answer has become "I don't know yet" or "I'm waiting for the go ahead from my editor" or my favorite ... "It's coming soon." I want you all to know that it bothers me to say that - I want nothing more than to say "It's going to be released such and such ... SQUEE!" Unfortunately, life doesn't always work that way no matter how much I ask it sweetly. Believe me, I've tried.</div>
<div align="center">
<br />
When I first announced the December date, it was with a hopeful heart. I anticipated no hiccups with nothing but smooooooth sailing. *chuckles* Hands up anyone whose life ever goes EXACTLY the way we want it to *looks around* Me neither.</div>
<div align="center">
<br />
I recently changed editors. It was necessary and what it means is not only is the book subject to my life and priorities, but also hers. What I also didn't take into account was other editing obligations and Christmas. Family always takes precedence ... even in front of Mason, Darcy, and Devlin *chuckles* Thankfully they're not as ornery as Quinn. He wouldn't care and demand I cater to him. Sexy jerk!</div>
<br />
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: large;"><strong>So do I have a release date yet? No.</strong></span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: large;"><strong>What do I have? Three very strong FACTS</strong></span><br />
<br />
</div>
<div align="center">
<em><strong>Fact #1 - Testing Fate will be BY FAR the best book in the series to date.</strong></em></div>
<div align="center">
<em><strong>Fact #2 - I have one of the best editors I've ever worked with helping me polish the book. I love having that kind of confidence and Testing Fate with SPARKLE.</strong></em></div>
<div align="center">
<em><strong>Fact #3 - Waiting just a little longer will be a VERY distant memory once you get a copy. A lot happens in the book - things you've been waiting for ... and some that you'll never see coming.</strong></em></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<br />
<div align="center">
I love you all so much. Thank you for all the support you've not only given me but the series. You've embraced the <strong>Mystic Wolves</strong> - claimed the characters for your own and it means so much! I promise in the meantime to share teasers, torture you all a little less, and find fun ways to celebrate the series!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: x-large;"><strong>Happy swooning everyone!!</strong></span></div>

<br />
<br />
For those of you who know me, one of the things I <strong>LOVE</strong> doing is teasing everyone. Okay ... you all call it torturing but it's always done with good intentions. Well, I wanted to let you in on another quirk I have - </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffd966; font-size: x-large;">I also <strong>LOVE</strong> surprises.</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffd966; font-size: x-large;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
Never on me, though. I'm very impatient and not knowing what's going on is one of the quickest ways to drive me crazy. Nope, I love giving others a surprise - in fact, that was how the <strong><em>Mystic Wolves</em></strong> was published. Do you remember? Everyone went to bed and I was just <strong>The Bookish Snob</strong>, romance reviewer/blogger. Come morning, I excitedly declared "Woohoo everyone, look what I did. My first every short story Without Mercy is now available. I'm a published author!" That was over a year ago and I've never forgotten the response. Thank you for making this series a <strong>best seller</strong>.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
So, what does that have to do with anything?</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;">Everything because today I have a <strong>SURPRISE</strong> ...</span></div>

If you've been on Facebook the past few days, you know I have
a secret. Actually, it's a secret project that consists of three sections. In
keeping with my <strong>Queen of Torture</strong> nature, I've been pretty tight
lipped about it - a surprise for me because I'm notorious for NOT being able to
keep a secret. Somehow I've managed to go almost 3 weeks ... yep, I deserve a
medal or something. Maybe a statue. Or a day named after me ... just
sayin'.</div>
<br />
<div align="center">
I've had some fun with it as well. Did you all see these

Hahahaha - yep,
I've been laughing all day while peeking out my window for any lynch mobs and

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: x-large;"><strong>So what's the

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I could continue
going on and on and on .... maybe post some more vague and cryptic pictures OR I
can just show you. What do you think?</div>

The <strong>Mystic
Wolves</strong> series has received a <strong>SWOONWORTHY</strong>
makeover!!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the first
cover, designed by the <strong>INCREDIBLE</strong></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><span style="color: #ea9999; font-size: x-large;">Regina Wamba of
MaeIDesign!</span></strong></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is
<strong>AMAZING</strong> and created me the <strong>PERFECT</strong>
covers!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: x-large;"><strong>Take a moment to stroke the
screen!!</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am so excited to
begin revealing them. When I first released Without Mercy (now included of the
first book) it was part of an anthology. It was never meant to become a series
so I decided to just have Darcy on the cover. As the series grew and grew, I
knew I would need to one day revamp so I could have both Darcy and Mason
together so VOILA!!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ffe599; font-size: x-large;"><strong>Isn't he
AMAZING??</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So this is
<strong>PART ONE</strong> of my reveal. Coming soon is Forget Me Not and Testing
Fate's new look - both will look just as HAWT as this one!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ffe599;"><strong><span style="font-size: x-large;">Don't FORGET ... this book is
<span style="color: #ea9999;">FREE</span></span></strong></span> </div>

<strong>Here's a little sneak peek at the opening paragraphs to <em>Testing Fate</em> ...</strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">One moment I was
standing in the trial room and next I was gone—surrounded by darkness. My lungs
burned and a squeezing sensation filled my chest, robbing me of breath. Just
as I was on the verge of passing out, the world burst into an explosion of
color and I dropped to my knees struggling for air.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">“What the hell just
happened?” I gasped, my voice ragged. I focused on controlling my panting. My
head pounded without mercy and my body felt like it would keel over. It was the most
disturbing feeling I’d ever experienced and I wanted to kill the one who’d
inflicted it on me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">“Calm yourself, young
one. Take deep, steady breaths. The discomfort will pass if you don’t fight it,” a
soft voice whispered in my ear and I followed her instructions. Slowly the
dizziness faded, taking the waves of nausea with it, and I was able to stand
without the world spinning around me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">“Where are we?” Mason
demanded, his voice filled with annoyance. I watched Devlin place a cautionary hand on Mason’s
shoulder, warning him his temper wouldn’t be appreciated by the three Fates standing huddled together - watching us. Mason nodded and corrected himself. “I
apologize. I’m simply curious why you’ve brought us here.” He bowed his head in
deference to the women and his body relaxed into a less threatening stance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">“This once we will
forgive you, Alpha of the Mystic Wolves. We understand your concern and need to
protect. We felt it was important to remove the necessary parties from your
Council’s meeting room and bring you here,” Atropos replied, gesturing to our
surroundings.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">“And where exactly is
here?” Mason asked. He moved to take my hand, his fingers wrapping around mine
and squeezed.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"></span> </div>

<br />
<div align="center">
We were recently asked over to the home of Buffy Kennedy for an interview! We had a lot of fun, she was a great hostess, and we can't wait to meet up with her again. For those who missed it, we wanted to share!</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<strong><span style="color: #ffd966;"><span style="font-size: large;">Standing
outside the home of Buffy Kennedy, I turn to the small group behind me. <o:p></o:p></span></span></strong></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“Okay, you
all need to be on your best behavior!” I pointed to each of them, my finger
jutting for extra emphasis. “I know we can be pretty wild sometimes, but let’s
try to show we can be quiet and civilized as well.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
Devlin
shook his head, and chuckled. “Are you sure you need to be giving us that
warning? Aren’t YOU the one that gets a little crazy? Maybe you should wait
outside while we go in and dazzle her.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“I agree.
I’m the perfect picture of innocence and reverent behavior,” Daniel added,
elbowing his best friend, Mason. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“You’re the
biggest offender!” Darcy laughed, and letting go of Mason’s hand, grabbed mine.
“Let’s go before we’re late. I wonder what kind of questions she’ll ask?” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“I wonder
if she’s cute?” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
I joined
the rest as we turned to face Daniel. He was wearing a wide grin, not the least
bit embarrassed for his comment. Ignoring him, we approached the door, and I
raised my hand to knock. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
A few
moments passed before the curtain of the front window swished to the side,
showing a female peering out. Standing close, Devlin’s presence causes my
senses to tingle. Even though I’m the author, I’m still affected by the vampire
enforcer, and I resist the urge to poke my tongue out at him as he whispers in
my ear. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“Don’t be
nervous. You’ll be fine. I have complete faith in you.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
I’m stopped
from responding, from asking for a good luck kiss, (Hey, it was worth a try) by
the opening of the door. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“Come in,
come in. Welcome!” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
Following
our host into her home, Buffy ushers us into a cozy living room where
overstuffed couches are arranged so the lighted fireplace is the focal point.
The various lamps are dimmed, casting the perfect ambience for an interview. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
Wasting no
time, Daniel finds himself a seat, and a quick glare from me stops him from
placing his feet on the table. Mason and Darcy take the smaller love seat,
content in sitting as close as possible, and I blush as the exchange a quick
kiss. It’s obvious they’re in love. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
Shrugging
my shoulders, I take the seat next Devlin and sigh as he places his arm behind
me on the head rest. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
We look
expectantly at Buffy, and the room falls into silence. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“Forgive me
if I’m a little nervous. I don’t have guests often, and never have I had any
werewolves in the house. I even locked my cats up so as not to bother you, ha.”
She says to us all with a smile, as she takes a seat in a rocking chair by the
fire place. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“So, I
guess I’ll get on with it before I ramble on and bore you to death!” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
Addressing
me, Buffy asks “So are you a full-time writer?” <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: 0.3in;">
“At the
moment I am. When I first started writing, I was working full time at a
recovery center, but it soon became clear that I wanted to follow my passion
and work within the book industry. I’ve been fortunate to have a supportive
husband who is fully behind me following my dreams, and it’s been amazing. I
love being able to work from home.” <o:p></o:p></div>

I recently finished a blog tour to promote Cherished and had so much fun! I thought I'd start sharing interviews and guest posts here just in case everyone missed it!</div>

I was so lucky to have Theresa at Fade Into Fantasy start the tour off and we did an interview together. Here it is .... enjoy!</div>

Well when I begin writing each day, I need total silence. I must have ADD or something because even the slightest noise throws me off and the next thing I know, I’m on Facebook chatting or surfing the Internet. All while my characters are standing around wondering what happened! Once I get into the story though, I turn on my play list and pick a song. I usually go with something that has a great beat and can help me tap into the emotion I’m wanting. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I’m having a blast with Mason and Darcy and love the kind of relationship they have with each other. But I will admit its future characters I’m excited to write as well. Devlin is the vampire enforcer sent to help learn more about the use of vampire blood and everyone will meet him in Blood Oath (installment #3) When I outlined the storyline, I laughed so hard<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>coming up with scenes with him.

Ever wake up and be swamped with all kinds of intense emotions?

My BFF finally suggested I write the scene down and I did. I went on my merry way and all was right in the world.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I immediately thought of my dream and worked more on it, fully completing the scene. But the impatient person I am, I couldn’t wait so I decided to release it. Holy smokes! The support and feedback I got from everyone was amazing and that’s when my BFF stepped forward again and suggested I turn it into a serial series – releasing a new installment every 4-6 weeks.

For example, when I finished Cherished and took a closer look at Mason, I realized “Wow, he reminds me of my husband.” I’ve been married for 11 years and there have times where, like Mason, my husband has helped me realize how cherished I am.

This has been an amazing experience and a group of characters who have stole my heart completely. Because of this, I created a website where you can come and learn more about Mason and Darcy. Please keep coming by to see updates on future releases as well as other interesting tidbits! I'm gearing up to tour <em><strong><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">Cherished</span> </strong></em>in October so you'll also be able to read guest posts that share more background into the series! It's going to be exciting!<br />
<br />
I'm so grateful for the way everyone has embraced my wolves and for all the Facebook comments I receive sharing how much you're enjoying the books. Your support has pushed both <em><strong><span style="color: #93c47d;">Without Mercy</span></strong></em> and <strong><em><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">Cherished</span></em></strong> in bestselling lists and I just want to say THANK YOU!<br />
