The banner above was one of the first homepage images on my site. I love it! It was created for me by Laura Givens. She was the cover artist for many of my books, pre-indie. In this image, she put all the guys in tuxedos and grouped them as if they were at a party.
Everyone is either looking at Senth (on the right), or glancing at Luc on the left. Luc is giving Senth a serious look because Senth has lost his tie. In case you’re not familiar with the stories, Luc is Senth’s adoptive father, having reared him from age three.
The Kin who is just to the right of Luc is Jawk Brighton. He had a fling with Luc while Luc was still in a relationship with Wulf Gabriel (center, with a bow tie).
I really love how Laura captured Wulf's smile and personality -- he is a supermodel and always looks amazing. In one book, Luc muses that Wulf's smile is in half the dentist offices in the Empire.
In the background to the right of Jawk is Alitus Vivaldi. Alitus is the Minister of Imperial Intelligence for the Imperial Armada, and up until the book Jawk, Tales of the Chosen, had been in an exclusive relationship with Empress Rheyn Destoiya.
When Luc and Wulf had a falling out, Alitus comforted Wulf, who was also a Chosen. They became partners in spying for the empress, and much closer than friends, much to Luc’s dismay.
Between Wulf and Senth is the blond-haired and blue-eyed Khyff Antonello, Senth’s half brother. He is checking out Luc's reaction.
With the exception of Jawk, these guys are in almost every book I've written set in the Tarthian Empire.
I thought it would be fun to see this art, especially as it reveals so much about their personalities.

Usually, if there's a series, I share info about book one. But today, I'm showing you book two. Why? Because the cover is just so... yum.
As you know, tall blond heroes are my jam *cough Pietas cough*, and this image is too appealing for me to pass up.
Who says you can't judge a book by its cover? Oh yes you can.
Check out Aurora Burning by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff.
Genre - YA SciFi, Space Opera
I featured this book in my newsletter some time back, and thought I'd share it with you too. Enjoy!
First, the bad news: an ancient evil--you know, your standard consume-all-life-in-the-galaxy deal--is about to be unleashed.
The good news? Squad 312 is standing by to save the day.
They've just got to take care of a few small distractions first.
Like the clan of gremps who'd like to rearrange their favorite faces.
And the cadre of illegit GIA agents with creepy flowers where their eyes used to be, who'll stop at nothing to get their hands on Auri.
Then there's Kal's long-lost sister, who's not exactly happy to see her baby brother, and has a Syldrathi army at her back.
With half the known galaxy on their tails, Squad 312 has never felt so wanted.
When they learn the Hadfield has been found, it's time to come out of hiding. Two centuries ago, the colony ship vanished, leaving Auri as its sole survivor. Now, its black box might be what saves them.
But time is short, and if Auri can't learn to master her powers as a Trigger, the squad and all their admirers are going to be deader than the Great Ultrasaur of Abraaxis IV.
Shocking revelations, bank heists, mysterious gifts, inappropriately tight bodysuits, and an epic firefight will determine the fate of the Aurora Legion's most unforgettable heroes--and maybe the rest of the galaxy as well.

Glorifying superheroes is my job, being seduced by one is a perk.
One day, I was a mild-mannered designer for a premiere superhero magazine. Turned down for a promotion yet again, I let loose years of repressed anger.
That's how I got fired. Lesson learned.
Now my career is as successful as my love life. But it's hard being upset when I storm out of the office and into the huskular man of my dreams.
Sebastian is successful, confident, and the way he fills out those pants, it's basically a crime. Working as the art director for a rival magazine, I beg for him to look at my... ahem, portfolio.
But in this city, you can't throw a rock without hitting a supervillain and, for reasons I can't fathom, this one wants me dead. They were about to ruin my date. Thankfully, Sebastian has gifts of his own.
Now, I'm trying to get the job of my dreams, while I figure out how to be a sidekick to a superhero.
Oh yeah, and not get myself killed.
Must be Tuesday...

I'm dying.
You'd think the worst thing that happened to me was being abducted from college by aliens. But no. The icing on the cake is I've contracted a debilitating disease, and I'll be dead in the next couple months.
Unless I get the vaccine.
It won't do me any good to convince the Quasar aliens to take me home to Earth. I'd just end up giving the virus to everyone there. As soon as Bren the Captain realizes our dilemma, they contact their planet's Council to arrange for the vaccine.
But the Quasar Council wants a ten-year commitment from me and my friends!
Ten years of being poked and prodded and studied… or die. Since their men are mating to other Earth women—something that hasn't happened to their kind in thousands of years—they want to study why. The Quasars have nano technology in their bodies, and they'd assumed the matings dying out were an evolutionary eventuality.
But was it? Because now they say they've located my mate on Quasar. Despite my skepticism, I'm intrigued. They've assure me he's waiting for me.
Will having him there make the years of being studied tolerable? Do I really have a choice?
PLEASE NOTE: This SciFi Romance alien book contains Adult Language and Steamy Adult Bedroom Scenes. It is intended for 18+ Readers & Adults Only.

This book is part of a science fiction romance series, The Quasar Lineage, but can be read as a standalone story with no cliffhangers!
