I’ve got three new release dates to announce! Fire and Rain, the sequel to Ascension will be out September 5 from Ellora’s Cave. Cascadia Wolves: Wolf Unbound will be out January 1 from Samhain and the last book in the series, Standoff will be out April 1!

I just got an email from Angie at Samhain contracting the final two books in the Cascadia Wolves series: Wolf Unbound and Standoff (Tegan’s book and Cade’s book)! She thinks we’ll be seeing WU in February and I don’t know the date yet on Standoff but she’ll let me know soon.

I’m excited by this so much! I LOVE working with Angie and Samhain and I’m thrilled to be able to get these books out!

I want to say up front – I moved this series from EC to Samhain because it’s taking a while to get new contracts. I am not mad at EC. I love writing for them and hope to do so into 2008. With all the craziness on the internet and the rumors swirling, I wanted to make it clear. This is a business decision with regard to getting my books out on a regular basis and knowing the new contract stuff will take months. Nothing more.

So busy! I’ve just finished first round edits for Making Chase and got them back to my editor. I’ve also got a lovely cover up on the Making Chase page and an excerpt. The book is out June 12 from Samhain.

I’ve also finished up all my edits of Fire and Rain and it’s gone to final. I’m just waiting for a release date at this point. The first book, Ascension, comes out from Ellora’s Cave on June 8 and it’s also got a sexy cover up along with an excerpt on the Ascension page.

I learned that the print anthology where my quickie from last year’s Fun in the Sun series, Sudden Desire, will be out sometime in June. I have no actual release date at this point but when I hear, I’ll update you. The volume I’m in is Sexy Summer Fun and it’s got a new cover featuring the new Mr. Romance, Jason Santiago. You can check out the cover and an excerpt of Sudden Desire here on my website.

I’m going to be attending the Lori Foster Reader Gathering on June 1 to 3rd so if you’re in the area, please come to the book signing to say hello! More information is up at Lori’s website.
