SAVED BY VALOROver the Atlantic

Valerie’s ship had been struck and was, in all likelihood, about to be out of commission. But while the ship had grown on her, especially with the great logo her crew had carved for her on its side, the lives of the men and women sailing her were her responsibility.

She ran over to Captain Reems, chest pounding. “Where do you need me?”

“We don’t have a chance with that ship above us like that. Don’t suppose they have one of those comm devices or something?”

“You just brought me the one.” She looked up, noting the angle of the balloon and the trajectory of their ship. She sure hoped she wasn’t going to regret this. “Don’t worry, I have an idea.”

His eyes followed hers, then narrowed. “You can’t possibly be serious?”

“It’s our only chance, right?”

For a moment his lips twitched as if he wanted to argue, but finally he nodded. “Please don’t mess this up.” (more…)

SAVED BY VALOR

Over the Atlantic

Flying in an air ship back to Europe was definitely something Valerie never thought she would be doing. Yet, here she was, on a ship with some of her closest friends. Their mission: to bring a boy back to his family and see what they could do about a group of bandits who had been taking people from their homes and collaborating with the pirates of Toro.

The trip was infinitely more glorious than the journey that had brought her to New York. Every time she passed the cargo hold, she remembered hiding out behind crates in that other ship with Sandra. That’s where they had met Diego, the Werecat who had since stolen Sandra’s heart. Soon they would be a family, and Sandra had threatened Valerie to not miss the baby’s birth.

She planned on returning in time, but it wasn’t exactly like she could rely on plans in this crazy world. (more…)

New Cover – Hounds of Light

Hounds of LightI went for a new cover all – thoughts? This is for Hounds of Light, book 2 in the Cursed Night series, a spinoff of sorts from the Bringer of Light trilogy (all loosely connected in the Eternal Light saga, in case you didn’t know).

Since this book focuses more on the magic, I thought this more appropriate. And Christian (of Covers by Christian) did an amazing job. Thanks, Christian!

HOUNDS OF LIGHT

Katherine is all that stands against a secret order of vampires and an army of werewolves.

From author of the bestseller Reclaiming Honor books (A Kurtherian Gambit series), with Michael Anderle

The werewolf army’s power has spread far and wide, and a new enemy arrives using dark magic. Katherine has no choice but to rely on her new half-vampire friend to uncover the new enemy’s hideout and stop him and the other vampires from seeking control over all remaining werewolves.

It’s a battle of epic proportions, but Katherine finds new allies on the side of light and honor.

Will her new friends come through for her when she needs them? Can Katherine stand up to a new order of werewolves and their would-be enslavers?

Unfortunately for her enemies, she refuses to surrender, and her friends got her back. There’s no middle ground here, simply victory and world-peace, or utter destruction.

Angel of ReckoningSandra wanted everything to be perfect for the surprise party. She had arranged her best wine, one that dated back to the first post-collapse, from the vineyards of France, or at least so the captain who had sold it to her claimed.

Cheese was spread out with freshly baked bread, along with special meats she had imported as well. It wasn’t as much as she would have liked, given the interruptions to the imports from overseas. If Cammie and Royland really could come up with a way of dealing with them before she came back, she would be ecstatic. (more…)

Angel of ReckoningOld Manhattan

Valerie loved having Sandra to herself again, for the first time in what felt like years. They had found a spot at the outskirts of the main part of the city, on a rooftop where Valerie often found herself lately, attracted by the enticing aroma of the thyme and mint planted there, especially when it wafted along on a cool spring breeze just like today.

“We really have no other options?” Sandra said,

“Not without putting more people at risk.” Valerie took a small leaf of mint, crushed it in her fingers, and then breathed in the scent with a refreshing sigh after. “I have no tolerance for more innocent death.”

“Not that you ever did.”

Valerie considered her, head tilted, and said, “Honestly? Toward the end of that Strake business, or even in the Bazaar, I was starting to wonder about it all. Like who had I become? Was this really me?”

“Seriously?” Sandra laughed, leaning over the railing to look out at the debris and ruins in the distance. “I’ve always loved you, always will. But the Valerie you are now? This woman you’ve become? That’s the real you. That’s the Justice Enforcer who will bring the evil of this land to its knees.”

“You think?” Valerie joined her to lean against the railing. She was vaguely aware that the metal was cold, but it didn’t bother her.

Sandra simply nodded.

“You sure you won’t reconsider staying behind?” Valerie asked. (more…)
