If You Loved Master of Crows...

If you loved my friend Grace Draven's book, Master of Crows, she has a short bonus story currently up on Amazon and Smashwords that features the principal characters from MASTER OF CROWS - Silhara and Martise. 

This isn't the sequel to MoC she's working on—just a quickie that takes place after the events in MASTER OF CROWS.  The story was written for a blog event centered around a Christmas theme. 

While she couldn't use a Christmas holiday for the story, she did use a winter festival. 


THE LIGHT WITHIN
As guest of honor at a winter festival, Silhara, the Master of Crows, must light sacred fires to honor a deity. Yet the ritual reminds him that the brightest light within him is not the fire of a god but the devotion of one woman. A tale of hope and celebration.


If you'd like to revisit the world and a couple of the characters from MASTER OF CROWS, you can nab a copy of THE LIGHT WITHIN here:

Friday Finds: Queen of Hearts

Want to read a "keeper" this holiday? If you like paranormal romance with sizzle, you have to check
out the Sin City series—and right now my good friend Kristen's Queen of Hearts ebook is FREE for the holidays, so go grab it and enjoy!

Welcome to Las Vegas, home of the Sin City Collectors. The job description is easy: Bring the offending supernatural in to the Boss and don’t ask any questions.

Feline shifter Claudette Marchon traded life as a showgirl to become a Sin City Collector, giving up the glamour to earn some serious cash in order to buy her own business. Mission accomplished, she now runs a pawn shop specializing in gems and jewelry.

Life is good until a Collection job requiring her specific skill set lures her back in. The Queen of Hearts, a museum-worthy ruby and diamond necklace has been stolen from the Boss’s private collection and she’s his last hope to do what two other Collectors have already failed to do. Bring in the necklace. And the thief.

But gargoyle Jason Tennant isn’t quite the dangerous criminal Claudette expects. In fact, he’s not a thief at all. He’s former military and being set up by the real mastermind, forcing her to decide between the man she’s falling for and the man she works for. Proving Jason innocent may risk the Boss’s wrath, but Claudette’s heart says it’s a gamble worth taking.
What’s Collected in Vegas, stays in Vegas...

*All Sin City Collectors Novellas are stand alone novellas, all set within the world of the SCC. Our goal is for you to sit back and enjoy the ride as each author presents their unique story. The world of the Sin City Collectors is big. Places and characters will overlap, so be sure to look for your favorites and stay tuned for more novellas!
