When the questionable cellphone photo of a flying black reptile is splashed over the internet, online news reporter Crystal Logan ventures to the small town of Winchester to find out just how real this alleged sighting is. If her suspicions prove accurate, this will be the discovery of a lifetime, and the answer to a heartbreaking nightmare that has plagued Cryss for over a decade.
* * *
In the Black Sky Mountains of Colorado, Sheriff Derek Reaves has worked hard to maintain his quiet rural life. Now thanks to a paranoid tourist who swears he spotted a fairytale monster, hundreds of crazy supernatural and alien seekers are flooding Winchester for their own encounter of the bizarrest kind.
Unfortunately one beautiful news lady is a lot savvier, nosier and tenacious than all the others. If he’s not careful, Cryss Logan may very well uncover the dangerous secret Derek has hidden all these years, threatening not only his safe, peaceful life, but his very existence.
AMAZON Best Selling author ADDISON CARMICHAEL is a Paranormal Romance junkie. Love is a mystical, magical thing to her, and she loves
writing and living vicariously through her endless PNR stories.
Whether it be alpha male werewolves, fierce dragons, panthers and
other shifters, sizzling hot vampires, or illusive sorcerers who will
magically make your dreams come true, her imagination is bubbling up
several stories after another.
“I’m often asked why I write this genre,” Addison commented. “The truth is, I love creating unique and fantastical worlds where anything is possible. I’m in love with love and all its
possibilities for both adventure and total bliss. This is my avenue to live in these worlds and become the adventurous heroine who falls madly in love with her compliment super hot, supernatural hero. Worlds I love to visit again and again.”
As a literature major, Addison also enjoys weaving classic themes into her books, yet keeping the fun and folklore true to each story and character. While paying strict attention to the tropes of each myth,
she also finds unique ways to create new ones in order to make each story as fresh, realistic and plausible as possible.
Besides reading and writing (which are blissful addictions), Addison loves the mountains and ocean, and enjoys hiking, camping, horseback riding and star-gazing whenever she can manage it. But reading, writing and storytelling is and will always be the “true love” of her life.
Addison Carmichael was born and raised in Southern California and has lived and traveled all over the west coast (and the world). She married the man of her dreams and has two awesome sons, two
daughters-of-her-heart, and three grandchildren who are the jewels in her personal crown.
She now lives happily-ever-after with her family (which includes Mollie, her black lab-border collie) in Snohomish, Washington of the U.S. Pacific Northwest.
When Lyleia Naiad was head-hunted by Brimstone, Inc., for her job as Executive Assistant to a high-powered billionaire demigod, she was given one directive—do NOT fall in love with Castor Dioskouri. Doesn’t matter if he is the son of Zeus and can electrify a room with a single glance. As an ex-nymph, she possesses a unique ability—a gift from the goddesses to protect nymphs from the randy gods—to resist her boss’s charms.
Or so she thought.
He insists she accompany him to an alpha wolf shifter mating ceremony, an event where the pheromones fly, and so do clothes…and inhibitions.
Goddesses save her, because Castor has stolen into Lyleia’s heart, and she’s not so sure she can hold out much longer..
Multi-award-winning paranormal romance author, Abigail Owen, loves plots that move hot and fast, feisty heroines with sass, alpha heroes with heart, a dash of snark, and oodles of sexy shifters! Other titles include wife, mother, Star Wars geek, ex-competitive skydiver, spreadsheet lover, Dr. Seuss quoter, eMBA, organizational guru, Texan, Aggie, and chocoholic.
Abigail grew up consuming books and exploring the world through her writing. She attempted to find a practical career related to her favorite pastime by earning a degree in English Rhetoric (Technical Writing). However, she swiftly discovered that writing without imagination is not nearly as fun as writing with it. She currently resides in Austin, Texas, with her own personal hero, her husband, and their two children, who are growing up way too fast.
Abigail also writes award-winning contemporary romance under the name Kadie Scott.

Angel Nyx is a repeat for me. We got to know her last September when she was promoting her book and giving the procedures to charity! She’s back and this time we get to learn more about her.
Author Bio (as a reminder)
Angel Nyx is an author of steamy paranormal, contemporary, and historical romance, romantic suspense, and urban fantasy. Her passion for literature was instilled in her at a young age when her mother read her fairy tale stories at bedtime. Her vivid imagination helps her get in tune with her characters to bring them to life for her readers. She is also a mom, a furmomma, a Nana, a reader, an avid gamer chick, and unabashedly retro.
She was once told that her ‘OCD is queen’ because it allows her to find errors in written word others miss. That comment led to her creating Horus Proofreading, where she goes beyond basic proofreading to help make her clients books shine.
She has also recently ventured into the realm of audiobook narration, on the suggestion of several other Indie authors,
When she’s not working, writing, reading, or gaming, she is usually relaxing to music, spending time with her furbabies, or finding new authors to fall in love with.
She has a long time love affair with the city of New Orleans, which is why so much of her work is set there, and plans to visit the city as often as possible in the coming years.
I’m really pleased to welcome Angel Nyx back to my blog!
I’m so happy to be back!
Since your last visit, give us an update on you and what you’ve been up to.
Life has been crazy since the last time I was here! I
FINALLY finished the book I’d actually started back in February, and had
planned to have out by May. My muse had other plans LOL I’ve also decided to
add a second pen name because I have some darker/kinkier books I’d like to
write that just don’t fit in with the branding for Angel Nyx, so Jeze Xyn was
born! The name is pronounced Jezzie Sin, and I’m aiming for a late
February/Early March debut for her!
Tell us about your new publication
My newest release, Luminescent Lotus, is the fifth book in
my NOLA Shifters Series. All of the books in the series are stand alones with
guaranteed HEA’s, but they’re interconnected so characters from previous books make
appearances in it! It released on December 10th, and is my 8th
published book.
Is your new book / project in the same genre
My main genre is Paranormal Romance. The last time I was
here, I talked about my first foray into contemporary romance, but PNR is and
always will be my first love and greatest passion in writing!
Describe your main characters
My heroine, Roxie Holcomb, is an interesting character, in
my opinion. She is the product of a human/shifter pairing. In my world, such
pairings can have one of three results. The child is either full shifter, full
human, or human with some shifter capabilities. The latter are called shiftless
shifters, because they have many of the qualities of their shifter kin—enhanced senses, faster, stronger,
better healing—but
they don’t have an inner anumal so they can’t shift.
That
is Roxie’s fate. Her father is a wolf shifter, her mother is a human, and Roxie
doesn’t have an inner wolf. Her entire life she wanted to be a singer, and
then, just as she was starting to make a name for herself, a terrible accident
happens that leaves her scarred both mentally and physically. She walks away
from her dream, but she still has spunk and fire to her.
The hero, Steele, is a wolf shifter. He was a sniper in a Special Ops group that consisted of other shifters, and after going to New Orleans in the first book to help former Spec Ops team mate, Declan, he decided to remain in New Orleans and become part of the Ghostpoint Pack. He’s the resident playboy and jokester, but what most don’t realize is he cracks jokes to hide the darkness he feels inside from the things he’d seen and done while working for the government.
Please share your blurb
Roxie Holcolmb
For as far back as she can remember, Roxie has wanted to be
a singer. Just as her dream is beginning to take off, tragedy strikes. She puts
her music away, intending to never pick it up again, when a chance meeting in
New Orleans changes her entire outlook.
Steele Reinhardt
When you spend a large chunk of your adulthood taking out
the dregs of society, it leaves a stain on your soul. Steele hides his darkness
behind jokes and doubts he will ever find a woman who can accept the man behind
the mask. Then his path crosses hers. Will she be the one to pull his soul out
of darkness?
Please share an excerpt
Steele
Golden eyes moved over the
crowd waiting to enter the club and he caught a flash of pink and purple just
as the doors closed behind two women. The scent lingered for a moment before it
faded and a growl trickled from his lips. His mate was in New Orleans. She was
inside Emelise’s club. What better place to meet her than inside a club owned
by a fellow shifter?
There were perks to having an
alliance between the Ghostpoint Pack and the Black Water Pard. At the door,
Steele simply gave his name and slipped inside. No waiting in line for him. It
took only seconds for his eyes to adjust to the lighting and then, using his
heightened sense of smell, he followed the scent of his mate to the bar in time
to hear her sultry voice speak.
“I’ll have a Quick Fuck.”
“I can take care of that for
you, sweetheart, but I don’t know how quick it’ll be,” he growled from right
behind her. He wasn’t quite expecting the reaction he got.
Roxie
The scent of musk hit her
nostrils and Roxie froze. The way her body responded to the smell confused her.
She’d never had such an illogical reaction to a smell before. The words,
growled next to her ear, sent a shiver down her spine and caused dampness to
pool between her thighs. It also caused her anger to flare. “Excuse me? Who in
the fuck do you think you are? Do you really think it’s even remotely
acceptable to walk up behind a woman while she’s asking for a drink and say
something like that to her? Are you really that much of a fuckwad?” She spun
around and glared at him. Brown eyes locked with gray blue ones in a battle of
wills.
“Whoa. Damn girl, no need to
bite my head off. That sounded way better in my head. Okay, yeah, that wasn’t
much better. It was a total dick-ish thing to say. Let me make up for being
such an asshole by paying for your drink. It’s an interesting choice. Don’t
think I’ve ever heard of it before. I’m Steele, by the way.”
Roxie just stared at him. Had
he lost his fucking mind? “After what you just said, what makes you think I’d
let you buy me a drink or that I give a damn what your name is?”
“Excuse my friend. She’s had a
bad day.”
Roxie glared at her best
friend. “Alli.”
“What? You have and you know
it, Roxie. Let the man buy you a drink and make up for being a dick. I’m Alli,
this is Roxie.”
When Allison’s hand touched
the back of Steele’s, Roxie wanted to rip it off. What. The. Fuck? Giving her
head a quick shake she pushed the feeling down. “Fine. I’ll let him buy my
drink. I need a strong drink that tastes great. A Quick Fuck has three of my
favorites; Bailey’s, Kahlua, and Midori.” They moved to an empty table and sat.
“You lovely ladies picked the
perfect club to forget about the worries of the day in. Scarlet Flux is one of
the hottest clubs in New Orleans. I’m not saying that because I know the owner,
who, I might add, is a kick ass lady herself. The club has some of the best
acts in the city.”
“Watch out for this one,
dahlings. He’s a bit of a player.”
Roxie blinked at the drag
queen who was suddenly standing in front of their table.
“He’s a good sort, but still a
player.”
“Thanks, Venus. You’re ruining
all my fun.”
There was a note of real anger
in his voice that puzzled Roxie. “What are you so pissed about? It’s not like I
hadn’t already figured that much out. You’re barking up the wrong tree here.
You might as well move along because this,” and she motioned between them, “is
never going to happen. Even if I was interested, I don’t do casual sex and it
doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that’s all you do. So buh-bye
now.” She downed her drink, set her glass on the table, and got up. “Come on,
Alli. Let’s get out of here.” On the way to the door, Roxie glanced over her
shoulder to find Steele’s blue gray eyes watching her leave. The look of
longing, and sorrow, in them almost broke her resolve. Almost. She forced
herself to turn back around and left, expecting to never see him again.
Please tell us about any other accomplishments
I have eight books out now; five in the NOLA Shifters series (Wild Lilies, Scarlet Roses, Midnight Orchids, Radiant Violets, and Luminescent Lotus), the first book in my Club Equinox series (Whispers of Hope), the first book in my Marchetti Family series (Black Tears), and the first book in my Hellfire series (The Devil’s Heir). I wrote a short story for the Shades of Pink anthology again this year, which was only available in October, and will be fleshing it out soon for release early in 2020.
Are you attending any events? (Online or in person)
I am attending the Tucson Book Festival in March and
Reader’s Envy Phoenix Book Bash in June, both as an author, and hope to get to
a few as a reader this year! I’d hoped to go to the Court of Sin signing in
Louisiana but sadly, I won’t be able to make it.
What’s next for you?
I have a few things planned! In my reader group we’ve been
doing group driven stories that are being turned into freebie e-books, the
first is out on e-book now!. I am already hard at work on the second book in my
Hellfire Series as well as working on the first book for my alter ego, Jeze. I
also have a novella to clean up for the NOLA series, a short story to flesh
out, AND I’ve started a completely new PNR series set in the
England/Scotland/Ireland area that will include many creatures of lore
including dragon shifters, phoenixes, griffins, selkies, kelpies, banshees,
sirens, even druids! It’s all a part of a world I’m creating called the
Shifting Myths World. I have a dragon shifter series that has 12 dragon clans,
and it’s my hope that others will want to come play in my sandbox in the near
future!
I also have a short story for a Valentine’s Day anthology
that will be connected to my Shifting Myths World and will have phoenixes ans
griffins in it.
With more experiences, what advice would you give a new author?
Don’t give up on your passion. Sometimes things get rough,
and you have to take a step back to re-energize yourself, but if it’s truly
your passion, keep going. Also, never compare yourself, and your journey, with
that of another author because you have no idea what is going on behind the
scenes that helped them to get to where they are. Your journey is your own, and
when you get those die-hard fans, because you WILL get them, remember they are
there, they love your stories, and your words brighten their lives every time
they read one of your books!

I write romantic stories laced with love, legacy, and fate. My novels feature culturally diverse characters and I hope to renew or deepen your love for magic, shifters, and romantic imagination.
Alex is screwed. She’s due at the fae Court of Enchantment in less than twenty-four hours, but she’s not even close to being ready. Her job is hanging by a fraying thread. There’s a new vampire master in town. And several of her werewolf friends have been captured by the Paranatural Task Force.
She’s their best chance for release before the full moon reveals their secret, but the Lord of Enchantment is not someone you keep waiting—even when he happens to be your grandfather. All Alex can do is call in a favor, hope to hell she can survive the plots of the fae court, and hightail it home to salvage her life.
One mistake at court could change everything . . . .

Deeper into the shadows. . .
The paranatural community isn’t done with Alex. She’s been summoned to the fae court, and she’s got her hands full trying to prepare. But her date with the fae will have to wait. There’s been a death at the gallery, and the man she hoped would be a part of her future is the prime suspect.
Bitter enemies pull her into the middle of a paranatural war for territory that has her dodging police, swords, teeth, and claws—not to mention the truth. The deeper she digs, the more secrets she uncovers, and the less certain she is about the innocence of the one man she wanted to trust.
She thought she was done with murder and monsters, but she’ll have to enter the belly of the beast if she hopes to save her friend.
With the world clinging to a fragile peace forced on the Fae by humanity after the Faerie Wars, metalsmith Alex Blackwood is plunged into the world of the half-fae who traffick in illegal magical artifacts. Her best friend’s murder and his cryptic last message place her in the crosshairs of a scheme to reignite the decade-old war between humans and fae.
Worse, violent attacks against her and the arrival of a fae knight on a mission force Alex to face a devastating revelation of who and what she is. To catch a killer, retrieve a dangerous artifact, and stop a war, Alex will have to accept that she’s an unregistered fae “halfer” with a unique magical talent—a talent that would change everything she believes about her past, her art, and her future.
Her world is crumbling around her, and Alex will have to decide who to trust if she and the world are going to survive.

About the Author:
Amelia Oliver lives at the seaside in England
with her husband and son, Oliver. When she’s not busy being a mum and wife, she
writes. Luckily, her husband supports her 100% and helps her bring life to the
characters in her head, who demands she writes their story. If there’s one
thing Amelia doesn’t like it’s to choose, and neither does her fictional women.
That’s why she’s writing in the reverse harem genre, where her heroines will
never have to choose just one guy.
Amelia is no stranger to mental and physical
health problems, so she loves writing about women who overcome struggles.
Amelia is a self-proclaimed potty mouth with a naughty sense of humour.
Seriously, who said “he/she said” jokes aren’t funny???
