Earlier this week I signed my first paranormal/cat shifter young adult contract with Whiskey Creek Press. It’s called The Black Cougar of Vernon Secondary. The title may change, but I’m fine with that. This is also the very first young adult I’ve written. I had fun writing it. It’s a lot different than writing erotic romances 
.
Here’s an unedited for now blurb:
Mika Taylor has always had it bad for Trent Hunter, but she never had the guts to talk to him. Now that her best friend moved away, Mika dreads having to face a school year at Vernon Secondary alone. And being classed as the school freak doesn’t help matters. When Trent finally looks at her and not through her, Mika starts to think grade eleven won’t be so bad after all. Getting to know Trent better, she can’t shake the feeling there is something he isn’t telling her. A chance encounter with the fabled Okanagan black cougar has her putting two and two together. When Mika sees not only the black cougar, but another cougar as well lurking in her backyard, she has to wonder if things can get any stranger than they already are.
