2016-Shifter Stories and a Whole Lot More

Almost another year over and I’ve already been writing and planning stories for 2016.  I’ll be writing more stories in both my Kalispell Shifters and Big Sky County series. And yes, for those who follow Perfect Pairing, Sadie will be back next year too.

I’ll also be adding to my newly launched Regency Rogues and Rakes series. And I’ll working on two new shifter series. I already have a title for one of them and it’s Forbidden Shifters. I know many of you love the bear shifters and that’s what this series will be all about. Here’s a sneak peak at covers for the first three stories I’m currently working on-

I also hope to add weekly updates about what I’m working on, more giveaways…next one will be for Valentine’s Day, and remember to check the upcoming releases page on the site for what’s ahead and when.

Thank you to everyone who purchased one of my books this year and for all the kind words and reviews. I wish you all Happy Holidays and a wonderful New Year-Vanessa D.

Miracle Wolf for Christmas-Kalispell Shifters

The second holiday story for this year is for my Kalispell Shifters series. I know bears are a huge favorite but for this one I opted to tell the story about one of the wolf shifters. His name is Kent and he’s the cousin of Nick from A Wolf’s Mate. Kent’s not a fan of Christmas and as the story opens it’s Christmas Eve and he runs into some trouble.

I won’t give away the plot but let’s just say he finds himself spending Christmas with someone who’s driving him crazy, and in a place no wolf ever wants to be.

There’s some humor, there are some tears, and yes, there’s a miracle for this holiday season.

I hope you enjoy this story as much as I did writing it and here’s a sneak peek at the cover which I have to say is one of my all time favorites-

Two New Holiday Stories

I always try to write at least one holiday focused story and this year I’ve penned two.

The first one is Brody for the Big Sky County series. He’s a cowboy on a mission to find his biological father who he hopes still lives in Riker’s Creek. I won’t give away the reason he needs to find him but let’s just say it’s the season of miracles and Brody gets more than he ever wished for when Christmas Day rolls around. This story will be released on November 26th…Thanksgiving Day for those in the US. And a huge thank you to Shannon who offered the name for this cowboy!

The second story is Miracle Wolf for Christmas and it’s part of my Kalispell Shifters series. I know bears are a huge favorite for readers of the series, but this time it’s a wolf shifter who finds his human mate. Once again I tried to focus on the wonderful things that can happen when people least expect it. The release date for this one is December 17th.

Here’s a sneak peek of the cover of Brody-

Bear of Interest-Kalispell Shifters

BestsellerIcon100X100

If you’ve already read A Bear’s Baby, you already know Brady Walsh’s nemesis, Dr. Cole MacDonald. At the end of A Bear’s Baby, Cole found himself in a predicament. He’d shifted, gone for a run, and stumbled upon the body of a dead woman. Always one to do the right thing, Cole calls 911.

However, in Bear of Interest, he realizes he might have brought trouble to the shifters, especially when forensics find only bear prints near the crime scene, and nothing human. But not all is lost for Cole. The lead detective is Samantha Hardy. She’s got her eye on Cole and not only in a professional way. Can a cop and a bear shifter make the perfect pair?

This book will be released on Wednesday October 7th and remember you can win a copy of it by leaving a comment either on this post or the one about Evernight Publishing’s 5th birthday bash.

Upcoming New Series-Regency Rakes and Rogues

You’ve probably guessed I love writing stories that are part of a series. As well as my favorite shifters and cowboys, I enjoy historical books, especially those set during the Regency period. I’ve penned two trilogies in that genre so I thought it was time to work on a series. This one I’m calling Regency Rakes and Rogues. I’m currently working on book one in the series which I’ve titled Pleasured by a Lord. I’ve included chapter one in the re-released edition of The Pleasure Room. I finished the first draft last night. This will be my first all new self-published venture so fingers crossed! Once I’m done with editing and polishing it, it’s off to the eagle eyes of a professional editor.

I’ll be giving you updates on this book as I get closer to a release date but for now here’s a first look at the cover-

Big Sky County-Book Seven-Cash

cash

If you’re following along with the Big Sky County series, you’ll already know Cash. He first appeared in Connor where he bid on Connor’s sister Katy. Just like the Nolan-Delaney’s, Cash’s family had a skeleton in their closet which was revealed in Ryan.

In this story it’s back to present day Montana with Katy and Cash heading off to Las Vegas where she hopes that the relationship will move from the platonic stage it’s been stuck in for the last few months.

However, Cash Doyle is, underneath his handsome façade, a broken man who’s keeping a secret from not only Katy, but the world.

The book will be released on Thursday July 30th and has been selected as an Editor’s Pick.
