The swag I'm giving away. The keychain & notepad show the back and front sides. Plus, Seduced post it notes!

I can barely contain my excitement, so even though I planned on waiting until January to do this reveal, I feel compelled to share it NOW! (Also, I’m doing a giveaway to get everyone else as excited as I am!) So, I’m here to seduce you!

I’ve had many inquiries about what’s next for my most awesome fans now that the Forbidden Trilogy is complete. (If you haven’t started or finished the Forbidden Trilogy, what are you waiting for?? Get your copy on Amazon, B&N, iTunes, Kobo or Smashwords!)

For those who HAVE finished it and are ready for something new, I’ve finally settled on the next BIG THING with which to woo you! I’m deviating a bit from the YA brand and straying into New Adult with this next series, so I hope you’re ready for more romance, more heat, but the same mystery, intrigue and excitement you fell in love with in Forbidden. (And don’t worry, plans for more Luke and Lucy and Hunter are still in the works… but this will give you something new to swoon over while I work on the Fallen Trilogy, and it does take place in the same Universe as Forbidden and Fallen, so you might see some cross over characters if you pay close attention!)

Allow me to introduce you to my next series, The Seduced Saga, beginning with the first novella, Seduced by Innocence. This will be a 5 part series that will launch in fairly rapid succession beginning in January, broken up only by the release of Sunrise & Nightfall in early April. (Because THAT book is O.M.G. to die for!)

Introducing… Seduced by Innocence

Cover by Dmytry Karpov of http://DaringBooksDesign.com

Seduction comes in many forms.

“Liquid fire poured into me, filling me with the intimate sense of him as he leaned in to claim my lips with his own. I reached for him, needing him closer, but my arms couldn’t close the distance between us, which grew wider with each hitched breath. So close to finally feeling something real, something carnal and deep, I cried out in frustration, dropping my hands as he disappeared. My cries deepened into a frenzy of panic and my eyes flew open. I clutched my blanket and stilled myself to calm my racing heart.

Just a dream. Always just a dream.”

Rose Wintersong didn’t have an ordinary upbringing. Raised in what most would call a hippy commune, but what is actually a powerful coven of witches, she never questions the life fate chose for her.

Until she meets Derek O’Conner.

Derek challenges everything Rose believes and forces her to see the secrets hidden beneath the whitewashed walls of her idyllic country life.

Rose knows she should walk away, that the sexy martial arts instructor is bad news bred to create discord in her tight community… but the animal magnetism between them is impossible to fight.

Caught between the passion of first love, and the steady beat of the life she’s always known, Rose must choose between the innocence of her youth or the pleasures of womanhood. But lost innocence comes at a price, and Rose harbors a dark secret that could destroy everyone she lovesβ€”including Derek.

Submit to the Seduced Saga as Derek and Rose face their future while unraveling the mysteries of their past.
