Marisa's Ramblings

Today I received the cover for my second Oh, Canada! werewolf book, A Werewolf at the Falls, that will be coming out at Ellora’s Cave. I love it, and think it’s one of my favorites. Yesterday I also finished the edits for this one as well. My editor should be turning it in either later today or tomorrow morning, which means I’ll be getting a release date very soon. I’m hoping it will be sometime in June. The blurb is below.

Blurb:

As a cocktail waitress at Fallsview Casino Resort, Jorja has been witness to some brow-raising moments. But she’s never been part of one until a hot-as hell patron in her section pulls her into his lap and kisses her senseless. Talk about a generous tipper. Lady luck has smiled on her indeed.

What was supposed to be a weekend of harmless gambling takes a dramatic turn when Kian’s wolf scents his would-be mate. Consuming her lips as if his life depends on it in the middle of a crowded casino is bad enough—but giving in to his mating urge and claiming her before she knows his true nature is nothing short of a disaster. And when a fellow pack member shows up and lets the wolf out of the bag, Kian is forced to admit not only who and what he is, but what he did. He may need more than luck to pull this one off.

Today I signed and mailed out my newest Ellora’s Cave contract. It’s for the second book I wrote for their Oh, Canada! themed series. So far it’s still just me who has books contracted for it. This one is set in Niagara Falls, Ontario at the Fallsview Casino Resort. I also included another male werewolf in the story, which I should be writing his book for this series more than likely next month . I don’t have a blurb yet, but I’ll post it once I either have a cover or a release date for it.

Today the seventh book in my Ra’s Chosen series, Ra’s Hunger, was released today at Ellora’s Cave. This is the last book in this series. It’s a bit sad, but I do have a new series idea along the same lines that I just have to write. You can find Ra’s Hunger at EC’s site at the link below.

Blurb:

After watching all his warriors find their mates, Ra wants nothing more than to find his own. How hard can it be? He’s an Egyptian god, for crying out loud. Women should fall at his feet—and into his bed. When he discovers his destiny, he’s flabbergasted that she doesn’t accept him at the word go. He must wrap his head, and arms, around this mortal woman. Fast.

Shanda doesn’t want a man right now. No way, no how. But when the sexy stranger shows up at her museum, her sex-starved body doesn’t care. It wants him…posthaste. She might have a chance in hell of resisting him, if he’d only stop kissing her.

With the pressure of having to tell Shanda what he truly is, Ra bumbles the job left and right. Very un-godlike. And when she does everything she can to stay out of his bed and his life, Ra must win her over the only way he knows how. With seduction.

The fourth Roxie’s Protectors book, Skylar’s Devotion, is now out at Liquid Silver Books. You can find it on their website at the link below.

Blurb:

A famous Victoria’s Secret fashion model, Braelyn comes home to visit her parents after being away for a year. On a shopping trip, a man on a motorcycle at the red light snags her attention while she crosses the street. When she draws even with him, he flips open the visor of his helmet, and she instantly forgets what she’s doing. A blast from a car horn makes her aware she’s standing in the middle of the crosswalk, and she quickly gets moving.

Skylar follows the beautiful blonde with his gaze, watching where she goes. Sitting at a red light is not the place he expects to run into his would-be mate, but there she was. Determined not to let her get away, he follows her. He finds it hard enough to deal with her being mortal and not knowing anything about werewolves, but the bigger problem is the stalker who wants to do his famous mate more harm than good.

Today I received the cover for the fourth Wolves of East Anglia book, Designs on a Warrior. The cover artist, Mina Carter, did a fabulous job on it, and kept it as close to the other covers in the series. I also made a switch in publishers for this and the rest of the series. Designs on a Warrior will be out on June 6th at Summerhouse Publishing. I also have an excerpt posted on my website. You can read it at the link below.

Blurb:

In Norwich, England from Canada for a month with her best friend after finishing university, Cydney is on the hunt for a British boy toy to help fill her vacation. At a nightclub one night, she finds the perfect canidate–he’s tall, musclar and as good-looking as sin. She doesn’t waste any time seeing if he could be the one she looked for.

Wulfric–a shape shifting, immortal warrior charged by the Anglo-Saxon god, Tiw, to protect mortals from werewolves sired by Fenris the wolf–had followed the trail of scent of his prey to a nightclub. Following inside to continue the hunt, he instead finds himself confronted by a gorgeous woman who introduces herself while grabbing him by the crotch. That she’s his mate as well, he finds himself utter distracted.

But as things heat up between them, the disappearance of Cydney’s best friend forces Wulfric to tell her what he is before he’s ready. And the chance of having to let her go could be one battle he’ll lose in the end.

The fourth Roxie’s Protectors book, Skylar’s Devotion, finally has a release date. It will be out on May 16th at Liquid Silver Books.

Despite the snow we were getting here on and off, today was good for me. I received a new contract and a cover. The contract is for the fourth Wolves of East Anglia book, Designs on a Warrior. I made a change in publishers for this series. It will be out with Summerhouse Publishing. This book is Wulfric’s. I have a blurb and will post it below.

This is the cover for the fourth Roxie’s Protectors book. All I need now is a release date, which I hope to get soon. I’ve loved all the covers for this series.

The Canuck Werewolf, the novella I wrote for Ellora’s Cave’s Oh, Canada! themed series, is now out. It’s the first book to be released for the series, and so far the only one. Since I don’t want it to be all alone I’m going write another werewolf novella for the series. I’ll probably start it in the next week or so. You can find The Canuck Werewolf at Ellora’s Cave at the link below.

Blurb:

Rylee doesn’t have high hopes for the Victoria Day weekend camping trip, seeing as she’s been roped into taking her brother and his juvenile friends. But her mind is changed when she spots a gorgeous man on a hiking trail. She’d like to be zipped in a sleeping bag with him, no doubt about it.

Atticus came to Elora Gorge to get away from his father and his demands that his son find a mate. Like yesterday. Atticus needs time away from being groomed to be the pack leader and the endless stream of “suitable” mates thrown his way in hopes of stirring his mating urge. No luck yet. But then he spots a shy mortal who draws him like no other.

The tent heats up quickly, but before Atticus can tell Rylee what he is, he discovers a member of his pack has followed him with the intention of claiming him for her own. Not only does he have to convince Rylee she’s his mate, he must also prove she can trust him.

The seventh and final book in my Ra’s Chosen series, Ra’s Hunger now has a release date. It will be out at Ellora’s Cave on May 18th. I also have a blurb, which I’ll post below. There is also an excerpt posted on my website HERE.

Today has ended up being Ra’s day. Earlier this afternoon my Ellora’s Cave editor sent me the edits for his book, the final Ra’s Chosen, Ra’s Hunger. Then just a few minutes ago the art department sent me the cover for it. Talk about timing . I should have the edits all finished later today, and from the look of things, this one should be out sometime in May. I don’t have a blurb yet, but I’ll post it once I have the set release date.
