Burden Of Blood

I'm so happy to announce that my first full length novel, Burden of Blood, is now available on Barnes & Noble and Amazon !! I'm so excited!!


Don't forget, if you haven't read my short "Blood Awakening" yet it's available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords and soon for Sony and Iphones/Ipads. This is a great back story to Burden of Blood you will not want to miss. Check the "Blood Awakening" tab out for the details. 


Here's the blurb for Burden of Blood:


No one wants to know everyone’s darkest secrets, especially not police officer, Nicole Keenan. All she wants is a blissfully normal life in the small, Alabama town where she was born. But as generations of power running through her veins start to wake up, an ancient grudge is ignited that threatens to push her over the edge. She can hardly believe in what she is, let alone that a dark force will not stop until she's joins them. Or is dead.

Nicole Keenan's life enters into a dangerous dance with warriors and gothic fairies. Southern tradition collides with Irish folklore as she learns about love, heartbreak, and The Burden of Blood.





It's already getting great reviews!


"Lots of twists and turns in this fast paced paranormal read. This is an author you will want to watch out for."

Within moments Ella's life as she knows it is ripped away, forcing her to discover who and what she really is. Will she be able to handle the truth?

Exciting Things

Burden of Blood is almost done at the last set of beta readers, then it will be time to let the world into my mind. I have been working on this one book for almost five months now and as I look back to  day one, all I can say is Wow! I have learned so much and met so many wonderful people. I've joined the best writer's group ever, "H.P. Writer's Group", I've made tons of new friends on Facebook and Twitter, and I can call some of the best writers out there my friends. What a long, fun journey these past few months have been. 


But now it is time to start looking ahead and to what the future may hold for me. I've started book two that will continue the story of Burden of Blood and I've also began working on a short story that gives you a glimpse of how life was for Nicole and Kat, two of the main characters from Burden of Blood, before Nicole's supernatural powers started to emerge and what triggered the chain of events.


I'm hopeful that the next five months will be just as wonderful and inspirational as my first five. I feel very blessed to have made it this far in my journey and I'd like to thank everyone for the advice and words of encouragement. You know who you are and I love you all!
