USA Today bestselling author of adventurous urban fantasy that flirts with paranormal romance
There’s something about the tight story structure of a great novella that snags my interest even though short stories often aren’t my cup of tea. Which is a long way of saying — two-thirds of my recommendations this time around are novellas. I hope you like the format as much as I do! Romancing the…
Once again, it’s been a full season since I perused recently read books and wrote up my favorite fantasy reads. Which means this post skims the creamiest of the cream — hopefully you’ll love every title I mention! Black Dog by Rachel Neumeier is perhaps the most memorable of the books I enjoyed in the…
Are you ready for a treat? I got together with six other authors to create a free anthology, full of werewolves and witches and necromancers and goblins. My inclusion slides into the middle of the Wolf Rampant Trilogy (but contains no spoilers, so you can safely read it whenever), answering that burning question — what…
Having trouble waiting for Huntress Unleashed? I promise to regale you with the first few chapters next week. But in the interim, perhaps you’d like to learn a bit more about Sebastien? Spoiler alert! This is set between books three and four, so probably best to read the first three books in the series first….
A huge thank you to everyone who’s made Rogue Huntress‘s release such a great success! Since I can’t send you real cupcakes in exchange for your assistance, here are some virtual ones created through a partnership between the Endangered Wolf Center and Sweetology. I think Ember would have loved them. Obviously, she would have chosen the…
With Thanksgiving on the horizon, I thought you might enjoy skimming the cream off my recent reading list. All of the books below are quality fantasies, most with a strong romantic thread. I read them and loved them — maybe you will too? C.J. Archer dependably delivers strong, young heroines living in a vivid historical…
Did you miss Incendiary Magic when the novella was in the limited-edition Fire Kissed box set? If so, you’re in luck! Fire Kissed is no longer available, but this intro to my Dragon Mage universe is now free on all retailers: Happy reading! And if you enjoy what you read, I hope you’ll…
In fall 2017, I launched a new series that returns to a character from the Wolf Rampant series…twenty-four years later than when you saw her last. Ember is now all grown up and facing new challenges. But before you learn more about those trials and tribulations, I thought you might enjoy a story from the…
Branching out a little further from the urban fantasy and paranormal books I recommended last time, today’s post is all about top reads in other subgenres of fantasy (notably fairy tales and romantic fantasy). Death Sworn by Leah Cypress is a perfect fantasy read, with a strong but flawed heroine, an intriguing setup, and enough moral…
In my previous post, I regaled you with the best traditionally published fantasy I’ve read over the last few months. But I hope that doesn’t make you think I turn my nose at indie fare! In fact, the books in this post are every bit as good (and considerably cheaper) than the ones previously reviewed….
