Cover Reveal - STILL NIGHTS

I know a lot of people may miss this because of the holiday weekend and all, but I'll post it again later. I've come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter if it's a planned event or just a spur of the moment post. My last cover reveal was planned and paid for. It didn't make a difference as far as sales go that I can see.

If you've read Jenny's Blue Velvet, you've heard her talk about this upcoming book once or twice.

Start the music. Get ready for it. I bring you the beautiful cover created by the talented Steven Novak and the blurb for Still Nights.

Sammy's lost.

She's looking for a way out of the dark pit she's swimming in. A former police officer, she spends her days sitting on the couch and nights sleeping with her old partner turned friend with benefits. She shot a kid while on duty. It wasn't intentional. He threatened her and she panicked. But that one mistake won't stop haunting her. It's destroyed her life, if that's what you'd call the daily routine she lived before that unfortunate event.

Sammy has never seen a ghost even though her estranged husband is the famous Walker the Ghost Stalker, ghost hunter extraordinaire. She used to want so desperately to experience what her husband and friends call a supernatural thrill, but that desire ended when her life fell apart. The only reason she continues going on investigations is to spend time with her husband.

One night, Sammy receives a worrisome call. She rushes out in a raging storm to locate her husband and friends. What she finds instead would scare the shit out of anyone. And she regrets ever going on that last paranormal investigation. What has this ghost hunting crap gotten her into anyway?

Fan of American Horror Story? You'll enjoy the novella Still Nights, a horrific paranormal thriller for adults only.

Coming October, 2013

Here's a bit more about JENNY'S BLUE VELVET.

Jenny's stuck.

She's tried just about every occupation she can think of and will be digging out of student debt for a very long time, but has nothing to show for it. Her everyday routine feels like a prison. And her marriage? Well, let's just say it's been a little one-sided lately and the money she threw down on the toys from Lover's Erotic Store was well worth it and then some.

Jenny decides her next big step is to become a romance writer. Romance books are flying off the virtual shelves, after all. This will be her big break, her escape from the prison, and a way to freedom. Self-publishing is all the rage these days. She'll be a best seller in no time.

When Jenny makes friends with a woman named Cassandra from the gym, she instantly decides that her new friend will make a perfect main character in her upcoming book. After the first chapter, real life begins to resemble the fiction she's writing. Her friendship blossoms, sex with her husband turns into a daily feast, and her job gets more interesting with each chapter written.

Out of the blue, a person who is a close friend with her husband and who is dating Cassandra disappears. As the mystery behind the missing person unfolds, Jenny wonders if she might be responsible for his possible death. And if she is, what will be the consequence? What has this writing business gotten her into?

JENNY'S BLUE VELVET is a dark, humorous, romantic thriller for adults only.

New Title for Adult Novel - Release Date August 22nd

As some of you know, I'm working on a new novel. This novel explores various levels of happiness or the perception of happiness. What is the price you'd pay for such happiness? We all have hopes and dreams, but they often fade with time. New interests develop. We are always striving toward those goals. We often think that once we reach those goals, we can be completely happy. If only I'd lose ten pounds... If only I'd win the lottery... If only I had more sex in my life... If only I had a housekeeper, a cook, a mansion... If only I finished writing this book... etc. Then, and only then, will I be happy. So, inevitably, if that's the case, we seem to never be happy. But what if the if only became reality? But, what if someone else paid the price for them? Would you still be happy?


Anyway, that's just one of the concepts in this new story, which, by the way, is an ADULT novel. It's a romance, a thriller, a paranormal, a horror, and erotic, all rolled up in one. Perhaps I will label it as a dark and humorous romantic thriller. I think it's a little bit of Stephen King meets David Lynch meets Bridget Jones's Diary, if that makes sense. But, of course, I'm not even comparing my work to those of awesome, just using them as references.

Today, I'd like to share the title with you. Are you ready?
