    Last Strand, Elemental Assassin #19, set for March 16 …

    Last Strand, Elemental Assassin #19, will be released March 16. Woot!

    Here is a look at the cover art, which was done by the awesome Tony Mauro. I love all the little details, like the spiderweb in the background.

    PRE-ORDER THE EBOOK:

    Amazon Kindle B&N Nook Apple Books Google Play Kobo Smashwords

     

    PRE-ORDER THE PRINT BOOK:

    Amazon print B&N print IndieBound

    Booksellers and librarians can order print copies through IngramSpark.

    ABOUT THE AUDIOBOOK:

    Last Strand will be released as an audiobook, and I fully expect the awesome Lauren Fortgang to return as the narrator. However, I do not have a release date for the audiobook yet. It might not come out on March 16 when the ebooks/print books are released. When I get more information about the audiobook release date, I will share it online.

    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.

    The stakes couldn’t be higher, and the danger has never been greater. Somehow, I need to weave one last strand in my web of death—and kill my enemies before they kill me . . .

    THE ELEMENTAL ASSASSIN SERIES WILL CONTINUE:

    The Elemental Assassin series WILL CONTINUE. However, Last Strand will be the last full-length Gin Blanco book for a while, due to my writing deadlines on other books/projects.

    In the meantime, I am planning to write some novellas about some of the Elemental Assassin secondary characters, like Lorelei Parker. But rest assured that I am planning to write more books about Gin in the future, as my schedule allows. Thank you for reading. 😎

    KILL THE QUEEN DESCRIPTION:

    The thrilling first novel of the Crown of Shards epic fantasy series combines magic, murder, and adventure when a member of the royal family becomes a contender in a clash for the crown… 

    In a realm where one’s magical power determines one’s worth, Lady Everleigh’s lack of obvious ability relegates her to the shadows of the royal court of Bellona, a kingdom steeped in gladiator tradition. Seventeenth in line for the throne, Evie is nothing more than a ceremonial fixture, overlooked and mostly forgotten.

    But dark forces are at work inside the palace. When her cousin Vasilia, the crown princess, assassinates her mother the queen and takes the throne by force, Evie is also attacked, along with the rest of the royal family. Luckily for Evie, her secret immunity to magic helps her escape the massacre.

    Forced into hiding to survive, she falls in with a gladiator troupe. Though they use their talents to entertain and amuse the masses, the gladiators are actually highly trained warriors skilled in the art of war, especially Lucas Sullivan, a powerful magier with secrets of his own. Uncertain of her future—or if she even has one—Evie begins training with the troupe until she can decide her next move.

    But as the bloodthirsty Vasilia exerts her power, pushing Bellona to the brink of war, Evie’s fate becomes clear: she must become a fearsome gladiator herself . . . and kill the queen.

    A NOTE ABOUT PUBLISHING DATES AND OTHER PROJECTS

    1) The release dates for these books *probably* won’t change, but I just never know what might happen due to various publishing whims, etc. Just keep in mind that many book release dates have changed due to the pandemic.

    2) I also have a few smaller projects – a Beauty and the Beast-themed short story, etc. – in the works that I also hope to release in 2021. I’ll post more info about those projects as it becomes available.

    3) I’m excited to share the books with you all. I think my schedule this year is a nice mix of new and old series, and I hope you enjoy reading more about Gin and getting to know Charlotte and Gemma better. 😎 

    What books are you looking forward to this year?

    Karma Girl, Bigtime superheroes #1, on sale for 99 cents …

    Karma Girl, book #1 in my Bigtime paranormal romance series, is on sale for 99 cents. Woot!

    Amazon Kindle Barnes & Noble Nook Apple Books Google Play Kobo

    Karma Girl was my very first published book back in 2007. It’s a fun, zany, over-the-top superhero spoof, and it will always hold a special place in my heart.

    KARMA GIRL DESCRIPTION:

    Investigative reporter Carmen Cole gets the surprise of her life on her wedding day when she discovers that her fiancé and best friend are sleeping together—and that the two of them are her town’s resident superhero and ubervillain. Shocked and hurt, Carmen reveals their secret identities and then decides to devote her life to unmasking every superhero and ubervillain who crosses her path.

    A series of successful unmaskings lands Carmen a job at The Exposé, one of the biggest newspapers in Bigtime, New York, a city that’s full of superheroes and ubervillains. Carmen is in her element—until she gets kidnapped by the Terrible Triad, Bigtime’s most dangerous ubervillain team.

    The Triad orders Carmen to uncover the secret identity of Striker, the leader of the Fearless Five, Bigtime’s most popular superhero team—or else they’ll drop her in a vat of radioactive goo. With that threat hanging over her, Carmen sets out to unmask Striker, but what she doesn’t count on is falling for the sexy superhero. But with the Terrible Triad lurking around, this is one story that just might be the death of her….

    Last Strand, Elemental Assassin #19, March 16, 2021 …

    6 Comments

    I have some updates about Elemental Assassin #19. And the title is … drumroll please … Last Strand.

    Huzzah! I like the title a lot. Mainly, because I came up with it. LOL. Sometimes, I have a hard time coming up with a title for a new Elemental Assassin book/story just because I feel like I’ve used all the “spider” related words a dozen times. But Last Strand just sort of popped in my head one day, and I thought it was a great title. I hope you all agree.

    As of right now, I am planning to self-publish Last Strand on March 16, 2021. It just depends on how my other writing deadlines shake out. And please do not tell me to write faster. I find that very annoying, especially given my writing-related health issues.

    The awesome Tony Mauro is doing the cover art again, with Alexa Martino as the model for Gin.

    I will be self-publishing an ebook and a print book. I’m hopeful that there will be an audiobook, but we’ll see what happens.

    Last Strand will be the last book in my Elemental Assassin series – for a while, at least. I’m swamped with deadlines for my new Gemma Ripley trilogy and some other projects, and I need more of a work/life balance. Plus, I’d like to write some Elemental Assassin novellas from the points of view of some of the secondary characters, like Lorelei Parker. We’ll see what happens.

    I’ll share more updates as they become available. Thanks! 😎
