I'd like to present you with a little blurb and snippet from my new book!
Breaking the Nexus, available NOW on Amazon!
Throughout history, myths and legends of extraordinary creatures have been told and retold. Fantastic tales of demons and banshees, gryphons and dragons, and of course, magic. Stories that every child grows to learn are nothing more than fantasy…or are they?Beyond the world you see lies a hidden realm, the Mythrian Realm, inhabited by all of the creatures you’ve been told are mere fiction. Only one thing lies between humans and the truth: the Nexus. A magical barrier erected millennia ago to separate the two realms, it has stood the test of time. Until now.For Mythrian Sha Phoenix, magic is nothing new. But when she stumbles upon a portal on the verge of collapse, her fate will forever change. Pulled through the portal into the Human Realm, she lands in the middle of Detective Connor Flynn’s brutal murder scene. Soon it is obvious someone is using blood magic to try to bring down the Nexus. Together, Connor and Sha must work to unravel the secrets before the barrier falls and the realms collide.The Nexus is breaking and all hell is about to unleash…literally.
Excerpt:
As they halted at a red light, he decided to break the silence. “Don’t you have big cities where you’re from?”
“Oh we do, but it’s so different. I’m not used to such height and all that glass. We have tall buildings, though nothing on this scale. Part of it is to allow plenty of sky space for our flying creatures.”
“You mean birds?”
“Birds, gryphons, dragon—all sorts of creatures really.”
Despite all he’d seen this morning, he just couldn’t wrap his head around that. “Gryphons and dragons…seriously?”
“Yes, I—” Sha’s words cut off, her body tensing as if to prepare for an attack. “Something’s coming,” she warned as a piercing shriek reverberated through the air.
“Do you know what that was?” He scanned the surroundings, looking for the source of the scream. It was like nothing he’d ever heard and had chilled him to the bone. It sounded neither human nor animal; whatever it was, he doubted it was friendly.
Another shriek, this one louder, longer…closer. People on the streets began running, fear stark on their faces. A black mass blocked one of the street lamps that had turned on mere minutes earlier, but he couldn’t distinguish any features. “Sha! Do you know what’s out there?” She sat frozen, her eyes closed in intense concentration.
“Mother Night, it can’t be.”
Another shriek, even closer, this time accompanied by the terrified shouts of innocent bystanders. Connor reached over and shook her shoulder in an attempt to break through to her. “Now’s not exactly the time for disbelief. What the hell is coming for us?”
Her eyes met his, outward calm masking a hint of fear. “A banshee.”
Oh, shit. So much for luck being on their side.
Oh, I want to win the swag pack. Really of all the prizes, this is the one I wish for every hop. :)

To be honest I want a lot of things for Christmas. I want my friends and family to be happy, to be able to find my one true love and to keep learning and take steps to making my dreams come true but most of all I want everyone to be safe and I also want a kindle and your book for Christmas.
ReplyDeletezap989@verizon.net
I'm easy to please. I don't want anything for Christmas. The only thing that I "needed" was a new camera, and my gf already bought that for me. I'm pretty much set...but I can never say no to more books. So for all my friends reading this: don't hesitate to send me books ;)

I am thrilled to get to have both my daughters and their families here for Christmas. I guess what I would like for Christmas is...for my editing and beta-reading business to take off so that I can stay home and not return to the working world outside my home.

One of my favorite Christmas Romance Books is The Untamable Rogue by Annette Blair! The story is about Ashford Blackburne Fifth Earl and he has to get married and get his willing bride pregnant before Christmas or his grandfather won’t let him inherit his money. Ash truly needs to inherit the money because his late father squandered it all away and he is taking care of his mother. After getting stood up at the alter, again, Ash and his friends go to the local pub where the owner plays a drunken Ash in a card game…his consolation prize is the pubs daughter Larkin, who he wants to get ride of. Ash has to learn to forgive…Larkin has to learn how to trust…can two completely different people find love together. This is a cute, extremely funny, romantic story with a surprise Christmas ending!

I have been travelling to the kids homes for the passed 20+ years. My Christmas wish is to stay home and not be on the road. I really enjoy the holiday season. I enjoy the smells, the food and lights. Oh and the music too. Not much into baking anymore. But I do enjoy tasting, ask my scales. Tee Hee. Great blog. roya-clan@sbcglobal.net
