It began with one of the most eye-roll inducing instaloveyist instaloves I ever read. There were so many unanswered questions especially about Lana and the organization that is chasing her, I hope it's all laid out in the next book.ģ.5 stars. I liked that she didn't fall in love immediately, even though she thought Adam was the hottest guy she knew her brain did not immediately turn into mush. I don't know why but I had an issue with that.ĭespite all that, I liked certain things about Lana. I did understand what she was going through but she threw the word 'racist' around so much it started to irk, they were the same race just not the same species. Apparently they have some issues with interspecies mixing, the jaguars are the wolves mortal enemy so much so that they kill Jaguars on sight without any explanation, so their relationship was filled with a lot of hiding and sneaking which of course sent Lana on her 'tearing up' spree. Lana was a jaguar shifter and Adam, the hero, was a wolf. I expected her to be tougher.Īnother issue I had was the whole race thing. She used that as her sob story the entire book and it got on my nerves, she always had tears running down her cheek, I would have expected her to be more jaded, considering she had been in foster care and had being on the run for several weeks. I don't want to sound apathetic but I got tired of that little detail fast. The heroine, Lana, was abandoned when she was a child and has no idea about where she's from except that she was wrapped in a sweatshirt. This was a terrific book, I feel I would have loved it even more had the heroine cried less. Paranormal tales are my favorite and I tend toward the dark side. I also post news and short stories on my Blog, so feel free to stop by for a read. In the meantime,I have a new series beginning in July 2013 with Moonlight, Book 1 in the Moon Series. The final book, Night Child will be released in March of 2014. Since then, Night Thief and Night Demon have been released. Night Walker also won the Romance Through the Ages in the Best Paranormal and Best First Book categories. My debut novel, Night Walker, was released in 2012 and won a San Diego Book Award for Best Published Fantasy-SciFi-Horror. My story, 'Immortal Beloved' was a finalist for a Bram Stoker award and was recently re-released in the 'Dead Souls' anthology, along with a follow-up never-before-published story, 'Subito Piano'.

Since then, I've published numerous short stories in anthologies and magazines.

My first book was titled 'The Wonders of Unicorn Creek' and my publisher was Dehesa elementary school. I've been dreaming up stories since I was in elementary school. That's generally how my writer brain works. What if I could answer that? Would I live life differently if I knew for sure how much longer I had left? Wow! Goodreads just asked me for my city of birth and date of death.
