What reviewers are saying about Dark Wine at Christmas:

“Rife with suspense, steam, action and grit !” ~Goodreads Reviewer

“This book is fun and light, a perfect Christmas story! I love how it focuses on the electric relationship between Cerissa, with her independent will, and Henry, who is struggling with his moral core. It reveals more of Rolf’s rigid personality and the clever ways that Karen handles him. And the sparring between Henry and Rolf, the two dominant males—oh my goddess!” ~Shari Bonin-Pratt’s Ink Flare

“Spooktacular fun with a great whodunit!” ~InD’tale Magazine

“A strongly plotted vampire mystery filled with twists, turns – and thrills!” ~A Wishing Shelf Book Review

They were not alone. A Wishing Shelf Book Review praised it as “Cleverly plotted with strong characterization and a tantalizing sexual undercurrent.

Here’s the tease:

Everyone has a secret fantasy—even a rich and powerful vampire… Vampire Henry Bautista can’t contain his excitement. The circus is coming to town. As a child in the 1800s, he dreamed of starring in the center ring. As an adult, he remains enamored with the death-defying acts performed under the big top. But when a close friend on the show is seriously injured in the arena, Henry ignores his own safety and rushes to the rescue. Cerissa Patel is aghast over the accident—or was it an intentional attack? The last thing she wants is for her fiancé to take over his friend’s dangerous act. With protestors marching in front of the tent, suspicious injuries occurring on the show, and a possible saboteur lurking among the performers, Cerissa can’t stand the thought of Henry stepping into the limelight. She loves him too much to take any risk with his life. As the attacks continue to happen, Henry and Cerissa must come to terms over which is more important—his love for her, or his love for the circus…

Get it here!

Happy reading!

I’m going to the moon! Or at least, the Hill Vampire/Dark Wine ebooks are!

Under the leadership of author Susan Kaye Quinn, 125 writers are sending their fiction stories to the moon. I’m honored to be one of them.

I grew up reading science fiction, and the thought of grabbing a small piece of immortality was too juicy to pass up, so I volunteered as soon as I read the invitation to join. Hundreds of years from now, some archeologist is going to be scratching their head, wondering why vampire romance was sent to the moon.

The first four ebooks in the Hill Vampire are included on the small flash drive being rocketed into space. If that future archeologist reads the books, they’ll have a complete mystery story, and the start of a very juicy romance.

The final flash drive was shipped to Astrobiotic Technology in late February. It’ll be included on the Peregrine Lander’s Mission One. The Peregrine Lander will be launched aboard a ULA (United Launch Alliance) Vulcan rocket in July 2021, assuming all goes as planned.
