    Jennifer’s 2021 book and other releases …

    Some folks have asked for a list of my 2021 book/story releases. Here you go:  

    The Beauty of Being a Beast

    This is a stand-alone, 7,000-word short story. It is twist on the Beauty and the Beast fairy tale. I had a lot of fun writing the short story, and I might write some more fairy-tale stories in the future. 

    Last Strand — Elemental Assassin #19

    This will be the last Gin Blanco book for a while, due to my writing deadlines. Up next, I will be writing some novellas from the points of view of some of the secondary characters, like Lorelei Parker.

    Capture the Crown — Gargoyle Queen #1

    This is the first book about Gemma Ripley. It is a new trilogy that is set in my Crown of Shards epic fantasy gladiator world. 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.  

    Also, please note that Capture the Crown — and the books in the original Crown of Shards series — are adult fantasy books that contain violence, language, and sex scenes. THESE ARE NOT YA BOOKS.

    A Sense of Danger — Section 47 stand-alone

    Coming Nov. 16

    A Sense of Danger focuses on Charlotte Locke, Desmond Percy, and other agents of Section 47, a secret government agency dedicated to spying on paramortals, or those with magic and other extraordinary abilities, like synths, enduros, combustos, galvanists, and more. The urban fantasy book is basically spies with magic.

    A Sense of Danger is told in first person from the viewpoints of both Charlotte and Desmond. As of right now, this book is a stand-alone adventure, although if it does well, then I might write some more Section 47 books.

    Happy reading! 😎

    Pre-order the ebook for A Sense of Danger, Nov. 16 …

    The ebook for A Sense of Danger, Section 47 stand-alone, will be released Nov. 16. Woot!

    PRE-ORDER THE EBOOK:

    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 audiobook available now …

    Last Strand, Elemental Assassin #19, has been released as an audiobook today, Aug. 10. Woot! Lauren Fortgang is once again the narrator and voice of Gin Blanco.

    The Last Strand ebooks and print books are also available now:

    LAST STRAND EBOOK:

    LAST STRAND PRINT BOOK:

    Booksellers and librarians can order print copies through IngramSpark.

    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 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. 😎
