The official release date for Beyond the Darkness is April 5, 2026, just in time for my birthday! It’s available now for preorder on Amazon.

To save the woman he loves, he may have to become the monster she fears.

In an unexpected twist, Axle Travers discovers that the renowned biotech corporation, Lifeblood of America, is operated by vampires. His reality becomes even more harrowing when a rogue military doctor abducts him, altering his DNA and transforming him into something beyond human. Although a groundbreaking vaccine ultimately saves his life by bestowing extraordinary powers, the journey to survival invariably leaves its mark.

Eight years later, Axle runs a PI firm in Asheville, chasing monsters in the shadows and burying the truth of what he’s become. Then Haley—his first love and the woman he never stopped wanting—walks back into his life. Fresh from a failed marriage, caring for her dying mother, and reeling from a hurricane, she now faces something far worse: a stalker the police can’t stop.

Axle takes the case, but their fragile reconnection fractures when he discovers her stalker is no longer human. And the secrets behind his own transformation are rising, threatening to destroy everything he’s built.

To save Haley, Axle must decide whether to hide the monster inside him… or risk everything by revealing it, hoping their bond is strong enough to survive what waits beyond the darkness.

Because in a world where monsters wear human faces, the most dangerous one may be the man she trusts with her life.

Lines from Folks I KnowToday is the official release day of Embrace the Darkness, book Two in the Darkness Series. You can now find ETD om print and digital formats from The Wild Rose Press and Amazon.  It should soon be available in digital format from other retailers like Barnes & Noble, iBooks, Kobo, and Soni. Book One, Out of the Darkness is also still available and on sale at most retailers.

A Secret Revealed

Embrace the Darkness~

An experimental vaccine gives vampire Gerard Delaroche hope for the first time in two centuries–until two people are brutally murdered, and he suspects a conspiracy between vampires and mortals. To solve the crime, he must put his trust in a beautiful detective. But is former soldier and MP turned detective, Amber Buckley, a threat to his existence? Or the answer to his prayers?

Amber Buckley and her partner are assigned to do follow up interviews in the Lifeblood of America slayings. Amber believes she and Reid are just new eyes on a cold case. That is, until she meets Gerard Delaroche. Something about him teases long-buried memories Amber would rather not chase. However, the two join together, falling into more than resolution of a murder case. It seems Amber has some dark secrets of her own.

To find their way into the light, Amber and Gerard must first EMBRACE THE DARKNESS.

I hope those who’ve read Out of the Darkness liked it enough to read Embrace the Darkness. The books are a series but they don’t have to be read in order to make sense. You don’t even have to read the first book to read and understand the second book. But I hope you will.

So, come celebrate with me! I’ll be giving away a $7.00 gift certificate to The Wild Rose Press on Saturday. For your chance to win, leave a comment. and you’ll automatically be entered in a random drawing. No purchase necessary and your chances of winning depend on number of comments posted.

As part of my short promo posts for Embrace the Darkness, I’d like to add another line used by one of my characters taken directly from someone I know in “real” life.

Set up: Amber Buckley and her partner, Reid are investigating the Lifeblood of America murders. Reid thinks he has a lead, but Amber fears there’s something darker and more sinister behind the brutal murders.

 Reid was on a roll. She could see the
excitement in his eyes—hear the exhilaration in his
voice. He was vibrating with it. If she didn’t say or do
something to slow him down, he’d leap before seeing
where the evidence led.
“Don’t worry,” he said. “I’m not going to espouse
my theories to Captain Stratford or anyone else. I don’t
want this case going to the Feds or to narcotics. This is
our baby and we’re going to rock it.”
The knot in her stomach tightened. This case was
going to end badly. She sensed it as surely as she’d
sensed impending disaster in Iraq.

I hope you enjoyed this brief excerpt from Embrace the Darkness, my paranormal romantic suspense available now on Amazon.  This line was brought to you by GMC imaging co-worker and friend, Selena. Thanks, Selena!
