She'd seen it coming. Ever since Harold Westlake had made his announcement that he would be running for President, Kitty had been trying to warn her friends and teachers just how bad things were going to get. And yet, no one was doing anything about it. No matter how much she sounded the alarm, everyone kept telling her to just believe that things would work out.
Chronologically speaking, Ashley had only spent a small portion of her time on the planet in what couldn’t really even be charitably considered ‘less than ideal circumstances’. To someone who had actually lived through that hell, well… let’s just say whoever even considered that comparison should probably get punched in the face.
Almost two years ago I published a little book called Prom Changed Everything. It was, honestly, a passion project that initially I hadn't even thought about publishing. Back during those days and long before them, while I loved to write I never considered myself good enough to actually publish. Whether that was due to self-esteem issues, not feeling what I wrote was anywhere good enough quality to consider publishing (which in all honesty most of it probably wasn't), or I simply didn't see a means to accomplish it in the first place, I held off on even attempting such a feat.
They had known going in that the journey would be long and it would most certainly be challenging. Then again, that had been the whole point of taking the long way around. To get out, see the world, and truly face the fears each carried with them on their way to a safe haven with the promise of helping them master abilities they themselves didn't fully understand.
So, as much as this might come as a shock to many, I'm as human as everyone else in the world. I know, I know, please try to contain your shocked horror.
It wasn’t supposed to be like this. She was supposed to have been cured. She had been cured. All of those horrible impulses and instincts that had ruled her life were supposed to be gone. She was supposed to be able to live her life like a normal teenage fey girl… with paranormal abilities… going to a special school for fey like her. Okay, ‘normal’ was a bit of a stretch, but she wasn’t supposed to be a raging nymphomaniac anymore.
The entire Entwined Fates series is now available to buy as a set on Kindle through Amazon's U.S store. Previously, it was only available through the U.K site but now U.S residents can purchase the series in its entirety with one click here:
As a way to ring in the Fall, I'm offering two books this month instead of my usual one. Happy reading!
Going to a new school is always a bit unnerving. Going to a new school that's in another country and specializes in teaching fey how to use their abilities, well that's on a whole different level of scary and exciting. It sounded like a dream and felt the same when Ashley, Aiden, and Kitty had been accepted.
Those are just a few of the words people would use to describe Ember, and not necessarily in that order. Then again, being a witch with a penchant for the kind of magic almost exclusive to dark, steamy nights soaked in lust, it's easy to get them mixed up.
It's not easy to Awaken. It's even harder when Awakening as fey brings about miraculous, amazing, and frightening changes that alter your life forever. Where do you go? Whom can you trust? What kind of life is possible when you're so different from everyone else?
So, I came across something today that I think I need to address. First and foremost, just so there's no misunderstanding, I greatly appreciate everyone who has purchased my work or read it through the Kindle Unlimited program. I also appreciate the many compliments that have been left on Amazon. That being said, I ran across something in the comments section of one of my books that is a bit concerning to me. For my book Resurgence, which is book 1 of my Entwined Fates series, someone left a comment regarding it on Amazon.
Well, much to my insanely great relief, I just received an email from Amazon informing me that after conducting an audit it was discovered that my account was terminated in error and I've been fully reinstated. Everything seems to be back to the way it was, though the Kindle books aren't yet available. My guess is it'll take a little bit of time to reactivate them in the store but it shouldn't be long. I just want to thank everyone here who offered me such great support and advice about what to do if things ended up going to a worst-case scenario.
So, on Saturday, I was in the middle of shopping for groceries when I received this email from Amazon's KDP division:
Due to repeated Content Guideline violations in regards to books you have submitted through your account, specifically books that disappoint our customers, we are terminating your account and your Agreement effective immediately.
So, I just wanted to let everyone know (for those that are interested anyway), that my Entwined Fates series on Amazon has its own series page so people can find the whole series to read or buy easier. It can be found here on Amazon.com.

School, friends, a social life, none of that could ever compare. To say it was a calling would be an understatement. It was a family tradition he was more than happy to continue.
