BOOK COVERS & RELEASE DATES

Jenny Schwartz is thrilled to be able share the news that her short story "The Pearl Flower Harvest" will be included in the forthcoming Dreaming of Djinn anthology, edited by Liz Grzyb from Ticonderoga Publications. It will be out early April 2013.


Kylie Scott has a cover for Skin, the sequel to her post-apocalyptic romance, Flesh. Skin comes out with Momentum 1st February, 2013.

Six months since the zombie plague struck, former librarian Roslyn Stewart has been holed up in a school with eight other survivors. But now the shelves in the school canteen are bare. The stranger at the gate has supplies that will ensure the group’s ongoing survival, but at a cost. He wants a woman.

Nick is a man with a plan. He’ll treat Roslyn like a Queen, devoting the rest of his life to protecting and providing for her. In exchange, of course, for sexual favours. It’s the deal of the century given the state of the world. But Roslyn doesn’t see it that way. The first chance she gets she attacks the ex-army man and attempts to escape, forcing Nick to contain her. And so begins his awkward courtship of the woman, with her chained to the bed for security reasons.
Chained like a dog and forced to spend her every waking moment with a creep, albeit a good looking one, Ros is determined to escape. When circumstances force them to band together against a common enemy their very survival depends on their ability to learn to trust each other. An uneasy partnership develops, but can a relationship with such a difficult beginning ever have a future?

REVIEWS

Dragonfly by Erica Hayes has received a 4 star review from Dark Faerie Tales blog! Congrats!

The really great part of Dragonfly, besides the awesome world building, is the cast of characters.  Each individual has both good and bad qualities that blur the lines between the two.  You can never tell if this one is an actual bad guy, or if he is just a self-centered jerk.  This adds a remarkable depth to both the character’s personalities as well as the story itself.  I love character driven books and I must say that this one gravitates toward the upper echelon of my list.
