Imagine Sookie without Bon Temps and Fangtasia. Mercy without wolfpack politics, fae intrigue or vampire vicissitudes in the Pacific Northwest. Rachel Morgan without Cincinnati or the Ever-After or the Hollows. Hard, yes? Now, imagine Mercy without Adam. Sookie without Bill, Eric, Alcide, Eric, Quinn, Eric, and Sam. Or Rachel without Nick (the slimeball), Kisten, …

Super excited to reveal today, the cover for STEAM ME UP, RAWLEY, Book 1 in my new series Mint Julep and Monocle Chronicles. It’s a New Adult steampunk romance, and boy did I have so much fun writing this! I wrote the first draft in May of 2012, and after many revisions, it’s close to being ready! …
Hello Dear Readers! I’m happy dancing in the book blogosphere this week, celebrating release week for DESTINY, the second book in The Tranquilli Bloodline Series! Excerpts As part of the celebration, you can read three excerpts this week. Opening Scene (PG-13) My day moved from ordinary to interesting when the deliveryman handed me a box …
“Online. Active. Integration complete.” Pippa Jay’s cyberpunk short story, REBOOT, might be brief, but it packs one hell of a big punch. From the very first line (above) we’re pulled deep into a reality that is at once confusing – given the main character Damien’s memory issues – and compelling. “Confusion raged at the back …
Of all the paranormal beasties out there, zombies are my least favorite. (Sorry, zombies.) I’ve never been much of a horror fan, and after a while, the story of grim survival and inevitable death against the specter of mindless ravening beasts gets… wearing. But what I do like is smartly written fantasy that explores the …
Hi Paranormal Unbounders! Author Holly Hunt joins us today to chat about recent trends in paranormal fiction. Enjoy! — Celia The Monster Evolution by Holly Hunt Anyone else noticing that the comic-movie industry is trying so hard to keep paranormal movies relevant that they’re trying to adapt the old monsters into heroes (whether dark and … Continue reading
Ever since I read Transcendence by Shay Savage last month, I’ve been dying for my turn to come up to review here! If this book doesn’t meet our manifesto of looking for books that are different and push boundaries, I don’t know what does. Because, behold, this book is: not just a time travel romance, but … Continue reading
Yes, I must stand up and admit it. I am the last person in the known universe to have not read the Kate Daniels series, that paragon of paranormal by the husband-wife team of Gordon and Ilona Andrews. My blog readers are all mad about Curran, but I’m behind with all my favorite series. How … Continue reading
Hello Paranormal Unbounders! I’ve been head down, eyes on galley (focus, focus, focus!) for the third book in my vampire series (aka “Destiny, out in November, yay!), so when I noticed it was my turn to post for Genre Talk, I had to bring the vampires to the blog. As a reader and writer of … Continue reading
I bought this at a second-hand book shop because I thought it sounded like fun. The Gallows Curse is a story of witchcraft, murder, guilt and betrayal. It has wise women, a dwarf madam and a talking mandrake. Yes! A good read, especially if you like a juicy mystery and don’t mind a bit of … Continue reading
Hi Everyone! I’m taking our tagline’s advice today and “breaking rules” to share my thoughts on a romantic suspense novel (can’t help it; it’s also “stuffed full of awesome” as our tagline goes). It’s a book by our very own Suzanne Johnson, written under her pen name Susannah Sandlin. Step aside, Indiana Jones, there’s a … Continue reading
Today is Wednesday on Paranormal Unbound, which is pimp our books day, so I definitely scheduled my release to fall on a Wednesday! I’m so excited this day has finally arrived when I get to finally birth this puppy into the world. I’m so excited, in fact, that I’m giving away an e-copy. It’s the … Continue reading
So I haven’t watched television regularly since college. Busy jobs, and then kids made getting into many shows difficult. And usually, I’d really rather read. But check it out. There’s this not so new thing called streaming video. Hey! I may have been late to the party, but a few bouts of sick kids (or sick self) … Continue reading
Romance Writers of America recently held its annual meeting, and judging by the chatter on several of the writerly email loops to which I belong, the death of paranormal—specifically, urban fantasy and paranormal romance—was high on the list of topics. Agents don’t want it because editors don’t want it. Paranormal is dead. Authors have … Continue reading
As seems to be the case lately, this post hits me when I’m still in the middle of a book, so this is (again) literally what I’m reading 🙂 I’m about halfway through and am really enjoying both the hero and heroine and the story world Eden has created. I purchased this book this summer … Continue reading
