    ABOUT THE PRINT BOOK:

    A Sense of Danger will also be available as a print book. I will post those links when they go online.

    However, many authors/publishers have been experiencing delays when it comes to print books due to the pandemic, paper shortages, supply chain issues, and other factors. So if you order the print book, just be aware that it might be WEEKS before you receive it. And no, there is nothing I can do to change that.

    GET THE AUDIOBOOK NOW:

    A Sense of Danger is an Audible Originals book. It was originally released as an audiobook on Nov. 12, 2020, and I will be self-publishing the ebooks and the print books on Nov. 16, 2021.

    A SENSE OF DANGER DESCRIPTION:

    A SPY…

    My name is Charlotte Locke, and I’m an analyst for Section 47, a secret government agency that tracks terrorists, criminals, and other paramortal bad guys who want to unleash their abilities on an unsuspecting mortal world. I have a magical form of synesthesia that senses danger and uncovers lies—making me a stealthy operative.

    I’m trudging through another day when one of Section’s cleaners—assassins—takes an interest in me. I don’t need my synesthesia to realize that he is extremely dangerous and that he will do anything to achieve his goals—even if it means putting me in the line of fire.

    …AND AN ASSASSIN

    I’m Desmond Percy, one of Section 47’s most lethal cleaners. I’m also a man on a mission, and I need Charlotte Locke’s skills to help me keep a promise, settle a score, and kill some extremely bad people.

    Charlotte might not like me, but we’re stuck together until my mission is over. Still, the more time we spend together, the more I’m drawn to her. But at Section 47, you never know who you can trust—or who might want you dead.

    A Sense of Danger is told in first person from the viewpoints of both Charlotte Locke and Desmond Percy. Helen Laser is the narrator for Charlotte, while Rupert Channing is the narrator for Desmond.

    As of right now, A Sense of Danger is a stand-alone adventure, although if it does well, then I might write some more books in the series. Thanks!

    LAST STRAND DESCRIPTION:

    I’ve battled a lot of bad guys in my time, both as Gin Blanco and as the notorious assassin the Spider. But I’ve never faced off against anyone quite as powerful and deadly as the dastardly leader of the Circle secret society.

    Just when I finally have a lead on how I can defeat the evil group once and for all, new information comes to light that throws me for a loop. Suddenly, everyone and everything I love is in imminent peril of being destroyed, and I’m racing against the clock to figure out a way to save my friends.

    Read it now — Capture the Crown released!

    Capture the Crown, Gargoyle Queen #1, has been released today, July 6. Woot! Capture the Crown is set in my Crown of Shards epic fantasy world, and the heroine is Gemma Ripley.

    I’m so excited to finally share this book with everyone, and I hope you all enjoy reading about Gemma’s adventures, along with her beloved gargoyle, Grimley. 😎 

    CAPTURE THE CROWN EBOOK:

    CAPTURE THE CROWN PRINT BOOK:

    CAPTURE THE CROWN AUDIOBOOK — Narrated by Lauren Fortgang:

    ORDER SIGNED PRINT COPIES FROM MALAPROP’S:

    Malaprop’s Bookstore/Cafe in Asheville, N. C. is taking orders for signed copies of Capture the Crown, Gargoyle Queen #1. Woot!

    CAPTURE THE CROWN DESCRIPTION:

    Bestselling author Jennifer Estep returns to her Crown of Shards world with an all-new trilogy and a bold new heroine who protects her kingdom from magic, murder, and mayhem by moonlighting as a spy.

    Gemma Ripley has a reputation for being a pampered princess who is more interested in pretty gowns, sparkling jewelry, and other frivolous things than learning how to rule the kingdom of Andvari. But her carefully crafted persona is just an act to hide the fact that Gemma is a powerful mind magier – and a spy. 

    Gemma is undercover, trying to figure out who is stealing large amounts of tearstone from one of the Ripley royal mines when she encounters Prince Leonidas Morricone of Morta – her mortal enemy. Gemma tries to steer clear of the handsome prince, but when she finds herself behind enemy lines, she reluctantly joins forces with Leo. Also coming to Gemma’s aid is Grimley, her beloved gargoyle.

    Despite the fact that Andvari and Morta are old, bitter enemies, a dangerous attraction sparks between Gemma and Leo. Further complicating matters is Leo’s murderous family, especially Queen Maeven Morricone, the mastermind behind the infamous Seven Spire massacre.

    The closer Gemma gets to the stolen tearstone, the more deadly plots she uncovers. Everyone is trying to capture the crown, but only one queen can sit on the throne …

    Note: Gemma Ripley was first introduced in Kill the Queen, book #1 in my original Crown of Shards series. Gemma was 12 years old then; in the new series, she is 29 years old. Some of the characters from my original Crown of Shards will make cameo appearances in the new series, but this is very much Gemma’s story.

    I hope everyone enjoys the book. Happy reading! 😎
