So, for those who haven't seen on Facebook, I have had some very exciting news come in recently. A few pieces, to be honest. Now which to start with...
I think I'll start with the box set that I'm a part of. Alphas On The Prowl will be published 28th April through Excessica Publishing. There are 11 authors in this box set, some of which are NY Times and USA Today best sellers, so you know the stories have to be of high standard. I'm very pleased to announce that The Wolf In The Neighborhood will be getting re-released by itself as well as in the box set. I honestly can't wait to reveal the cover, this is an extremely exciting venture for me.
But that's not all that has me walking on a cloud right now. The Wolf In The Neighborhood (as is, before the edits I'm currently doing for it) and Once Bitten have both made the top 5 Paranormal entrants for the Easy Chair Bookstore Awards, just as Wolf Smitten has made the top 5 Series entrants. I was over the moon when I found out I'd made not one but two lists, 3 times. Final winners aren't announced until 1 June, but just to make 2 lists, with 35 entrants in the paranormal category alone, and 14 in the series categories, is such an honour that I don't think I'll stop being excited about for a long time.
But wait, there's more! Seriously, I'm not just saying it. I'm also heading in another project, a paranormal anthology with a group of wonderful authors. While details aren't being announced until the end of May, I can tell you that it promises to be a wonderful group of stories, ranging in sub-genres, and will be 16+ friendly. I've made the cover already, because I'm just so excited for it, and the biggest piece of excitement for me is that it will be print-on-demand, as well as available on Kindle. Further details are being discussed, however there won't be long to wait at all until the cover is revealed and posters will be
shared. So stay tuned, there is plenty to come.
I've also entered another contest, one for works in progress, but it's only early days so I have no news I can share about that, except that it's so far so good! And this is all before upcoming news and projects through Naughty Nights Press, my publishing home!
One last bit of news, though. Only slightly related. I'm now able to see the light at the end of the tunnel that is this Bachelor's Degree, with 48 weeks to go, with a high possibility of getting invited to do Honours, for which I've already decided on what I want to do. On top of that, glutton for punishment that I am *wink wink*, I'm also considering going on to complete a Master's Degree as well. If I'm not crazy by the end of the BA, I'm fairly sure I will be after the MA hahaha.
So it definitely seems to be the year of the Phoenix. I'd love to hear how this year is going for you, as well. Feel free to share any great news you've had, things to look forward to, or even if things are going rough, I honestly want to hear. The comments are open!
Let books be the bridge to a wonderful new realm of possibilities. ~Phoenix Johnson, From Ashes to Page

After three months of researching, she is positive she has found a jinn on a killing spree in San Diego, California. Since Syd gave Dimitri the one thing he thought was out of reach, he feels obligated to use his ill-gained talents for her cause.
A few hours back in the US proves that Dimitri and Syd didn't quite make the clean escape they had thought. As they trail the elusive jinn, someone else trails them. What should have been a simple trip to confirm once and for all if the jinn are living among humans, instead reveals a community keeping dark secrets.

Twenty-three year old Dimitri has to do what he is told?literally.
Controlled by a paranormal bond, he is forced to use his wits to fulfill unlimited deadly wishes made by multimillionaire Karl Walker.
Dimitri has no idea how his family line became trapped in the genie bond. He just knows resisting has never ended well.
When he meets Syd?assertive, sexy, intelligent Syd?he becomes determined to make her his own. Except Karl has ensured Dimitri can?t tell anyone about the bond, and Syd isn?t the type to tolerate secrets.
Then Karl starts sending him away on back-to-back wishes. Unable to balance love and lies, Dimitri sets out to uncover Karl?s ultimate plan and put it to an end. But doing so forces him to confront the one wish he never saw coming?the wish that will destroy him.
Rainy Kaye is an aspiring overlord. In the mean time, she blogs at RainyoftheDark and writes paranormal novels from her lair somewhere in Phoenix, Arizona.
She is represented by Rossano Trentin of TZLA. Someone told her she's a USA Today Bestselling author. She thought there would be cake.

Is this the real life? Or is this just fantasy?
Seriously, someone pinch me! The first two installments in my Wolf Smitten shifter erotic romance trilogy have been really well received so far. The latest reviews on them have left me walking on clouds.
One of the highest compliments a reader/reviewer can give an author, I believe, is that they felt the need to discuss it with someone. As a reader, I've felt that same need from my favourite books. I love discussing my favourite characters, reliving the best scenes through talking about them with like-minded people. So to see that someone has had that same reaction about my own books is... it's exhilarating. I can't thank A. P. Bullard enough for her wonderful reviews! I'm so thrilled to invoke in others the wonderful feelings that I get when I read my favourite books!

You can read both reviews in full on Amazon here (The Wolf In The Neighborhood) and here (Once Bitten Twice Shy), where you can also pick them both up to read for yourself, and maybe give A. P. Bullard the someone to discuss it with.

James Alexander Whitmore III, better known as Jaws as a joke among his co-workers, doesn’t even want to be on this cruise he’s been guilted into.
A rule-breaker in his CEO father’s eyes, he’s a software engineer who designs video games. Although, he’s not your typical geek, either, with his muscular body framed by long, dark hair and home to tribal tattoos from his latest successful game.
After traveling around the world to gain certificates as a personal trainer and yoga instructor, Samantha has finally landed her perfect job working on a cruise ship. As a staff member, Sam has the run of the ship. She can fraternize with the passengers, but being caught in flagrante delicto is grounds for immediate dismissal.
While an adventurer, she’s not a rule-breaker, so this poses a problem when she meets Mr. Tall, Dark and Mysterious. While she can’t imagine fitting into the world of a man who can rent a secluded cabin in the Grand Turks for the five hours they are in port, he just may prove to be her greatest adventure yet, in the bedroom and out.
Genre: Contemporary Erotic Romance

Reviews:
“This book is sexy, sweet, funny and absolutely
worth devouring! Watching Samantha struggle with her decision and Jaws flirting with destiny had me
glued to the pages.” ~5
Stars, Ava Mallory
“
The romance that flourishes
between them is swoon-worthy, and the narrative is far too good to not read all in one setting. I didn’t
want to put it down! If there is one thing Kiki Howell knows how to do, it’s write a romance that is the
perfect blend of erotic sensuality and passionate romance.Your breath will catch, your face will flush. You will swoon, you will sigh.
In the end, you will read the final word with a smile on your face. That’s how you know it’s a great
romance.” ~ 5 Stars

Blue Moon House: Slave release tour
Will has no interest in women. He thinks them all animals to be trained, beaten. It doesn't take him long
to discover his preference for men, but time and error reveal how wrong view toward women is. Before
long, he is able to separate the way he treats women, which is still horrific, from the way he regards
women, as fellow human beings.
How does a slave become an equal? What does it take for a young man to see women in a new light?
In the fourth installment of her Blue Moon House series, Angelica introduces Will, a slave boy from the early nineteenth century. You can purchase Slave on Amazon. Smashwords, All Romance Ebooks and Naughty Nights Press.
Angelica Dawson is the author of Blue Moon House, which has been in the top ten best-selling titles at Naughty Nights Press for over six months. She has also written two short stories, “The Highest Bidder” and “Leave Taking” which were each included in anthologies. She contributes flash fiction to several blogging collectives and excerpts from work in progress can also be found on her blog. She is active on Facebook and Twitter.
She has been writing for several years and having sex a lot longer than that. Angelica is a wife, mother and environmental consultant. Her love of plants and the outdoors is not diminished by the bloodsucking hoards – mosquitoes and black flies, not vampires.
Here is an excerpt from Slave:
After switching his attack to her chest, he returned to her legs again. He knew he could continue to strike a spot if he gave enough time between lashes. Then he took hold of the hair between her legs and pulled hard on it.
The woman arched her back and murmured. She wasn’t in pain; she was about to climax. He could feel her skin vibrating with pent up pleasure. She ground into his coiled fingers.
He released her hair and kicked her legs farther apart. He slapped the inside of each thigh and she gyrated more. Gripping the dark, curly hair of her sex, he tugged and she cried out. Again, it wasn’t a plea to stop, rather a call to God. He pulled his hand back and slapped her sex.
“Will!” Terrance called. The woman just bucked harder. He rubbed his palm into her for a moment, and then wound up for another strike.
“Yes,” she groaned, rubbing herself into his hand, her orgasm just about to break loose. He struck her one last time, hitting her sex hard, and she screamed out, her legs closing around his hand as she moaned and writhed. He curled his fingers and slipped them into her canal. She closed her eyes and squeezed happily on him. As she relaxed, he noticed the flush that had spread down her chest, turning her dark skin slightly rosy.
He leaned over her, his hand still cupping her, fingers inserted. He kissed one breast and then took a nipple between his teeth, biting softly. He rolled it between his teeth, his tongue touching the tip before biting down again.
The woman was lost. She thrust into his hand while reaching to pinch her other nipple. “Yes, yes, Master. Hurt me. Fuck, it feels good.”

7 Lovely Things Bloghop
The sweet and sassy Angelica Dawson invited me to participate in this blog hop. All I need to do is tell you 7 lovely things about myself and send you to 12 of my friends. (It is supposed to be 15, but couldn't find enough willing victims, hahaha) This will be interesting!
1. I love animals. Not all of them, but most. We have the two cats and a dog, but if I had my way, we'd probably have another cat or two, a couple more dogs, a few horses, snakes, rabbits, ferrets, birds, fish, guinea pigs, chickens, ducks, goats and even a couple cows and small pigs. We'd have a whole menagerie. But then I grew up with most of them (just not the ferrets, pigs, horses and snakes, with the exception of the occasional brown snake that went through the place, or carpet snake that ate my white dove while I was away on an excursion!).
2. I'm of pure German heritage, from both sides of my family, and live near the farm that my paternal great great grandparents bought when they migrated from Germany. I would love to buy it one day and get it back in the family! The road it's on is even named after that side of the family.
3. I've considered studying to become an event manager once I'm finished my university degree. However I really don't think I could deal with bridezillas and control freaks who can't make up their mind about what they want for an event. That's just not a stress I could take on!
4. Well, this isn't one that no one knows. People who do know me know this. But I rock
the rockabilly look. I'm not one to brag, because I lack the self confidence. However, in my effort to improve it, I've decided that is something I'm going to own up to: I rock that look. I'd even love to do rockabilly modeling once I've lost the weight I want to and become more comfortable with myself. But that also depends on if I could find somewhere to model for, as well. But hey, it's a dream, right?
5. When I was in primary school, we had Book Week. In grades 6 and 7 I entered the "Dust Cover Design contest". We were supposed to design a dust cover to protect the cover of a book we loved. It was supposed to be a book we'd read from the ones displayed in the library to buy. Well I hadn't read any of them, so both years I just picked one I would have read and designed away. *giggles* I won both years!
6. I'm quite eclectic in my music, movie and fashion tastes. While I'm only 28, I have a movie from the 50's that I love (7 Brides for 7 Brothers, 1954), and I do love The Duke. Terence Hill and Bud Spencer are hilarious. Yet I'm a huge fan of modern film as well. My music taste ranges from the 60's up until modern times (though there aren't many from the current year that I'm a fan of, most of my favourites are from the 80's, 90's and 00's). As for genre... well pretty much anything except country. As for clothes... well there's rockabilly, goth, steampunk, rennaisance, red carpet style fancy, and then just simple casual style as well. I'm a girly tomboy. I have a different style for each day of the week, really. Just don't have the actual closet to match lol
7. I was in the choir in high school. Well, the choir and then the chorus. The choir ran when I was in the junior years, but people stopped turning up so it was cancelled due to lack of interest. A couple years later, we then had "chorus", run by a different teacher. That was just a mess and didn't last long, either. However I did keep with the passion of performing arts, and was in 2 musicals through high school. In grade 9, I was a member of the chorus, and even had a line as an "extra". We did a 70's version of Frankenstein, with the mastermind trying to create the perfect band, or something along those lines. It was quite fun. I got to wear my awesome chunky heeled knee high boots and pink paisley dress. Then, at the end of grade 11 I auditioned for the musical for the following year (they were held in April/May, so we got on to them early!), and landed a main role! I was caretaker and "mother role" to the zombies. That was rather interesting. Though I learned just how cold the school hall got at night, and ended up stuck behind a piece of the set with painfully cramping feet. That was opening night. The following nights, I kept thick socks on, since the audience couldn't see my feet. Lesson learned!
Well, now that I've shared 7 lovely things about myself, it's time for me to point you to 15 other people so you can learn more about them. Here goes (some of them have participated)

Bad Boys Next Door Box Set - Available March 16 2015
Bad Boys
Next Door Box Set — Available March 16, 2015
There’s just something
about a bad boy… It could be that neighbor you’ve had the hots for forever. Or
maybe the guy in the cabin or office next door. It might even be a guy you meet on
vacation or one you’ve known since you were a kid.
Twelve prolific authors, including
New York Times Bestseller and USA Today Bestseller, Selena Kitt, and USA Today
Bestseller, Jenny Trout writing as Abigail Barnette, present a sizzling collection of
erotic romance sure to bring you to your knees and make you believe in love again –
or, at least, lust at first sight!
Set also includes: Gwendolyn
Cease, Bronwyn Green, Tilly Greene, Elise Hepner, Jessica Jarman, Sommer Marsden,
Kris Norris, Paige Prince, Charlotte Stein, and Alison Tyler.
Abigail Barnette (Jenny
Trout) – Bad Boy, Good Man
Newly independent real-life adult Ellie McCormack loves
everything about her first apartment…except her neighbor. His bi-weekly sex fests
keep her up at night in more ways than one as she wonders about the man who’s
making all the noise—and what he’s doing to make his women so damn loud.
But even her wildest fantasies couldn’t conjure up a man
like Antony DeLuca. When she works up the nerve to confront him, she’s expecting a
player, but there’s more to Antony than his carefree sexual escapades. One hot night
with him helps Ellie see through the man who drives women wild, to the good guy
beneath it all. A guy that she just might be able to fall for…
Gwendolyn Cease – No
Strings
All Kaitlin O’Neal wants to do is fix her sink. She’s
intelligent and resourceful. Plus, she’s got her own tools. How hard could it be?
Apparently, extremely hard, since her attempt left the sink in an unusable condition.
When her next-door neighbor, Cameron Sinclair, offers to help her fix the mess and
renovate the rest of the kitchen, she jumps at the chance. She’d be a fool not to,
right? Cameron, though, is hotter than hot and makes her an offer she can’t
refuse.
Cameron has wanted Kaitlin since she moved next door.
So what if she’s older than him? She’s beautiful, sexy, and he wants to get to know
her better. He offers her a no strings affair—one he hopes will keep her coming back
to his bed. Between home improvements and steamy sex, Cameron realizes that
their no strings fling will never be enough, but can he convince Kaitlin he’s worth
the risk?
Bronwyn Green – Drawn
That Way
Tristan Weaver, accountant for a successful video game
company, is in way over her head.
Honestly answering a company-wide survey and criticizing the sexist stereotypes
used in the company’s games was enough to catch her boss’ attention. But speculating on his sex life within his
earshot has unexpected consequences when her hot, but nerdy, boss invites her to
model for him.
Owner, artist and lead developer of Brecken Games, Rory
Brecken, has a strict no fraternizing with employees rule. However, when he
overhears Tristan’s conversation with her friend about his rumored kinks and
begins to suspect her curiosity in the submissive side of sex, he’s more than a little
tempted. When her interest is undeniably confirmed, he suggests a onetime only,
colleagues with benefits hook-up.
Though neither want a relationship, once isn’t enough for
either one of them. As their encounters become more intense, Rory makes a huge
mistake that may cost him the woman he’s coming to love.
Tilly Greene – Her
Wicked Ride
Mike Mulligan co-owns a garage and fixes cars. He rides a
Harley, is covered in tattoos and has spent time in jail. Since being released he’s
tried to live a clean life, but he’s a bad boy with women, very bad and terribly sexy.
Bondage, domination, and so much more, are his preferences when playing with the
ladies, and there have been a variety until the last one.
For the first time, he had to work for a yes. All summer,
they’ve had fabulously wild no-holds-barred sex, but one morning everything
changes. With chaos in the garage, a cup
of coffee in hand, and a half-naked Sherry Gonzales in his lap, his eyes are opened to
wanting more than sex with her. Mike’s solution is to go on a date, their first
date.
The night starts out fine. But things get wicked on the
back of his bike before taking a turn, but for the good or bad?
Elise Hepner – A Marriage of
Inconvenience
When Izzy Thorton's mother falls ill and is given a
terminal diagnosis the last thing Izzy anticipates is a proposal from her best friend,
Sebastian Leery, to fulfill her mother's dying wish. Only one snafu keeps Izzy from
saying yes—she's in love with him. But before she can say much of anything to his
proposal, Bash takes the reins by telling her mother the good news.
Unable to fight her undeniable attraction to her playboy
best friend—Izzy goes through with the best and worst mistake of her life. No
sooner are the rings exchanged when they both realize their friendship can only
bridge so many gaps. Sebastian has no hope of keeping his skeletons in the closet
and Izzy doesn't know how much longer she can keep her heart out of the
equation.
Together they fumble through the darkness of their past
to a future that might just be a little more clear--if they can fight their chemistry long
enough to talk.
Jessica Jarman – London
Bound
After losing her husband six years ago, Meg Stevens has
focused on the day-to-day and being a mother, not sparing a thought for anything
beyond—no dates, no excitement, no life other than what she already had. A six-
week vacation to London, all but forced on her by her two children, changes all of
that. Meg meets the man of her dreams—gorgeous, dominant, and completely on
board with a short-term fling—despite the fact he’s far too young for her.
Nathan Harris is more than a bit curious about the
beautiful woman renting the upstairs flat, and once he talks to her, curiosity is
quickly replaced by arousal and desire. It doesn’t take long before it’s clear she longs
to experience sexual submission, and Nathan finds himself desperate to be the one
she submits to.
Her days spent exploring the city, her nights exploring
Nathan and the pleasure submitting to him brings, Meg discovers the trip she’d
taken out of obligation has turned into something she doesn’t want to walk away
from. However, the life she left behind beckons, and there’s no room there for
dreaming of something she can never have.
Selena Kitt – Working for the Weigands
Lloyd “Boone” Goodhart has been working for the Weigands since he
was in high school, mowing their ornamental lawn, shoveling their long, winding
driveway and skimming their enormous in-ground pool for extra cash, much of
which he gives to his mom, a single-mother who has worked in the Wal-Mart bakery
for twenty years. Boone, more apathetic cynic than true slacker, is also attending
community college, bagging groceries at a local supermarket, and rebuilding his
dead-beat dad’s old Harley.
His second
summer after high school graduation starts out just as mundane and routine as the
first, but Boone’s world turns upside down when Mrs. Weigand tells him her
husband has left her, and her daughter has returned from boarding school in
Europe, where Danielle “Ellie” Weigand has spent the past five years.
Before he
knows which way is up, Mrs. Weigand starts requesting extra services of Boone—in
more ways than one—while her daughter, Ellie, teases him mercilessly, just like she
did in junior high. He soon finds himself immersed in a desperate, passionate affair,
with not just one woman, but two.
Will the
attention of both mother and daughter be more than he can handle, or will his
growing feelings for them be more than he can bear?
Sommer Marsden – The Anniversary Party
Kylie Walker is cracking under the
stress of hosting a thirtieth anniversary party for her parents and trying to keep up
with her freelance writing deadlines. With a new house, a well-meaning but useless
sister, and roughly forty people about to descend on her home, she doesn’t think it
can get much worse. Until her mother’s friend, Mrs. Sinclair, calls to ask if they might
bring one more person. Her son, Wade. The man who up and left Kylie eight years
before.
Wade Sinclair has come back to town with one
hope—to make things right with his high school sweetheart. Still hopelessly in love
with Kylie, Wade knows he must come clean about why he left her all those years
ago so he can finally set about reclaiming what he never should have let go of in the
first place—her love.
Can they put their past behind them and look
toward the future? Or will the anniversary party be the end of them
altogether?
Kris Norris – Force of
Nature
Love—an
unparalleled force of nature.
Conservation Officer,
Finley McKay, isn’t a stranger to criticism. Taking risks to protect delicate
ecosystems doesn’t impress most people—including the doctor renting the cabin
beside hers. The man’s arrogant, opinionated and far too sexy in his faded jeans and
tees. She already knows he’s an ass—she just wished it mattered enough to make
her keep her distance.
Dr. Coen Brady isn’t looking to fit in.
Having recently retired from the military, he’s hoping to spend a few months hiding
from the world in a small, out-of-the-way town in northern Washington.
But just his luck, he has the
misfortune of running into his next-door neighbor. A girl who seems determined to
get herself killed before his time there is up. She’s reckless, stubborn and slowly
driving him insane.
When anger morphs into angry sex,
Coen knows taking her to bed is a calculated risk—one he might regret when her
investigation turns deadly, leaving Finley’s life hanging in the balance. Breaking a
few rules to keep her in the game doesn’t seem that dangerous, until it becomes
painfully obvious she won’t stop until justice is served—even if the price is her
life.
Paige
Prince – Lost Treasure
Danielle Almasi-Epperson's parents
were killed in a tragic car accident when she was eight years old, leaving her world
famous, Egyptologist grandfather to raise her in their stead. While she had the
pleasure of growing up on archaeological digs, he never believed that the field was a
woman's place. All she's ever dreamed of is adventure and the kind of love her
parents had.
Jareth Riley was the boy
in the tent next door to Danielle's at every dig she could remember while growing
up. Her grandfather and his father labeled him a troublemaker from day one. So,
when Danielle and Jareth fall in love and lose their virginity to each other, it takes no
time at all for her grandfather to ship her off to Harvard.
Ten years later, she's
working as a curator at a museum and he's a treasure hunter. When he shows up on
her doorstep asking for help to find a lost artifact with supposed mystical powers,
she can't help but say yes. In no time at all, they're on the run from mad men with
guns and rekindling the romance that had never quite died. Will they be able to
restore the lost treasure to the rightful owners, or will they destroy their chance at
happiness or lose their lives in the attempt?
Charlotte Stein – Curveball
When Judy Myers is offered a
relaxing vacation to get away from her latest heartbreak, she can’t say no. A cruise
on her brother’s yacht sounds like heaven...until she realizes her brother’s best
friend has been invited along for the ride.
Steven Stark is big, he’s loud, and he’s obviously not
interested in the plump, plain little sister he used to tease unmercifully. In fact, he’s
still quite happy to tease her – until she turns the tables on him. Now, Steven can’t
seem to keep his thoughts, or his hands, to himself. And worse, Judy’s not sure she
can resist the attraction she’s kept buried for so many years.
Being trapped on a boat isn’t the best place to be, when
you’re suddenly thrown a hunky curveball.
Alison Tyler – The Spanking
House
The Spanking House is a fantastical tale of a writer
struggling against the beast known as "writer's block." Mia Rogers rents a cozy
cottage in a small town in hopes of jumpstarting the novel she can't seem to finish.
When she meets Tripp Johnson, she becomes motivated in ways she previously
hadn't thought possible.
