Dear Readers,
Last year I made a post about, When to expect the next book? It was in answer to a reader’s question wanting to know when to expect the next book in one series, while being unaware of another series. It was a good conversation and the resulting blog was very useful for not only readers, but myself! So I figured–why not do another one? The plan is for this to be a quarterly thing to update readers on what is coming out and stuff to be on the look-out for.
These are estimations only, not promised release dates unless otherwise stated. Or, ya know, when I list a date. I’ll do this by series, then do a recap at the bottom.
** Everything here is subject to change at the whim of publishers, me, the wind or other circumstances. **
The Bayou Bound series is going strong! It kicked off last year with the Midnight Ink boxed set release. Picture Her Bound has been out as a stand-alone novella, which just got a pretty new cover. Duty Bound out in ebook and print. The remaining titles are Picture Her Loved, a short story in the Love Is… charity anthology. Bound Memories, out first in the Hot Ink anthology. It’s up for pre-order as a standalone and will be out in March. Bound & Tamed was in the Taming the Alpha boxed set that hit all the lists. It will also be out as a stand alone this summer. I’m planning another full length called Bound by Her for 2015.
In December I released two short stories in my Holiday Engagements series. These BDSM short stories are not for the weak of heart. Festive Seduction and Electric Engagement are really fun little stories.
In August Committed, my first book from Random House’s Loveswept line, was released. Unfortunately, the release of the follow up is being delayed.
I got to announce a new, mass market deal with Kensington Books for a romantic suspense series earlier this year. I describe it as the love-child between The Fast and The Furious and Burn Notice. I’ve turned in the first book, but that’s not set to release until 2016.
Also, I’ll be part of the For the Love of a Soldier anthology coming out from Cleis Press that has been pushed out until the spring of 2015.
In my last update I talked about the hard choices I’ve had to make this year in regards to my books with Ellora’s Cave. I’ve received rights back on three books, which I posted about earlier this month. I have plans to re-release Personal Adventures, retitled Falling for His Best Friend. Collar Me in Paris will be released shortly after with a new cover.
I have a really cool thing I’m working on for 2015, but I want to keep it close to my vest for the moment.
Here’s a cheat-list of the expected schedule, without my secret projects listed:
- Falling for His Best Friend – January/February 2015
- Collar Me in Paris – February 2015
- Bound Memories – March 2015
- Bound & Tamed – Summer 2015
- Bound by Her – Fall/Winter 2015
Looks like a book about every other month. Seems like a reasonable schedule. I can deal with that. I look forward to reading each and every one of them, if I haven’t already. Keep writing, I will keep reading! Thank you. Happy New Year!
