“Gift” (After the Heat, #11) Is a New Wolves’ Heat Short Story Featuring Devon and Kem

A few weeks ago, I mentioned the four short stories I was finishing for the Wolves’ Heat series. “Gift” is the third one for the After the Heat collection, and I’m getting it ready to release today.

“Gift” offers a glimpse into Devon and Kem’s lives after Devon’s Gamble. Devon is Devon, and Kem is there to…well, I shouldn’t spoil things! ;-)

I really like this one. It was so nice to be back with Devon and Kem!

I’ll upload the story later today and post the announcement when it’s available.

Salvadore Is Back in a New Wolves’ Heat Short Story in the After the Heat Collection!

Available now!

Salvadore is back (and sweating) in “Sweat,” the newest short story in the ongoing After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories collection. Don’t think dirty thoughts because it’s not that kind of story. ;D Devon’s there!

Mason goes home. Five goes with him. Return to the early days of Mason’s life with his new mate, Five, in this Wolves’ Heat short novella, where no one is ready for this family meeting…

This short novella follows Mason’s Regret from the Wolves’ Heat series.

Available now at Smashwords!

Publishing soon on Amazon, Laterpress (where you can buy it from me), Barnes & Noble, Google Play, Kobo, and all the usual places.

For the most up to date links, go to the book’s main page.

I’m so glad to finally get it to you! If you pick up a copy and read it, I hope you love it as much as I do. Mason and Five really do have a place in my heart. After their book, I wouldn’t have thought I’d have so much left to write for them, but here you go: my longest story in Wolves’ Heat Stories to date. This one’s a short novella! ;D

New Wolves’ Heat Story on the Way!

I’m just days away from releasing Mason and Five Sneak Around (a.k.a. Marcus and Hawk Kiss and Tell). It’s volume 3 in the Wolves’ Heat Stories series tied to the Wolves’ Heat novels.

I’m so excited to be able to get it out finally, since I feel like I’ve been planning it forever. It’s a companion story to the main series, like Devon and Kem Under the Mistletoe and Cam and Rick Play Dirty, but it came in quite a bit longer. This one is a short novella. I love it! I hope you will, too.

It’s a Love Nest: A New Canton Republic Story Is Available Now!

I’m so glad to finally be able to announce this short novella! It’s a Love Nest revisits Gregory and Thrace from Of Magic and Mating, and the entire New Canton Republic series, really, since they’re always popping up in the new books. :D

How do you change a world? One nest at a time!

Odessa Lynne returns to the New Canton Republic in It’s a Love Nest with a tale of love and devotion—and all the trouble a family of monsters and magic-wielders can create.

Gregory and Thrace are in love, but Gregory sure isn’t in love with the idea of carrying a nest for his monstrous alien mate!

It’s a love that will change a world—if he’ll just say yes…

Kindle Vella’s closure and Mage in Love

So, the news came down today that Kindle Vella is winding down. I’d been afraid of this for a while, but I do think it’s sad that it’s finally happening.

Kindle Vella might be ending, but Jihu and Gaeru’s story isn’t!

However, Mage in Love episodes/chapters are also available from me at Laterpress, so the story’s still available and will be finished!

I’ll be giving some thought over the next few weeks how I want to handle the story going forward, and if I want to continue it as an ongoing story on Laterpress for subscribers and for sale in chapter bundle groups, or if I should just break the story up into volumes, for sale at all the usual places as an ongoing ebook series, much like the Hend & Yurt series and the R’H’ani Chronicles are published. It’ll be a long one and I know that, because it was always conceptualized as a serial story, so publishing in volumes seems like the only way to go if I want to put it up as an ebook.

The last day to add new episodes on the Vella platform is December 4, and I still plan to add some new chapters before then, so I’ll be posting them to Vella, certainly.

This is also a good time to mention that you can still read the first ten chapters for free on Vella at the moment, and then if you have any tokens left, you can use them to read the rest of the chapters currently available! :) Happy reading!
