Keeping Claire is a go!
I’m very excited to announce that Keeping Claire has been accepted at Ellora’s Cave. You guys have already seen excerpts for this book, so there’s not much to say, other than I can’t wait to tackle the edits on it and get back to visiting with Ryan and Claire. Here’s the description I gave my editor:
When the owners of the company Claire works for march her into their office, she knows that trouble has found her. Again. Having Ryan’s hands on her, after dreaming about him for months, isn’t quite as satisfying as she’d imagined when it comes in the form of a pat-down and a lot of suspicion. Not that they don’t have a right to be suspicious – the only thing she answered truthfully on her job application was gender. But she’s not there to steal or spy on the company, and if she doesn’t get away quickly, the crap that’s following her is going to unload on all of them.
Like squeezing blood from a turnip, Ryan and Jacob finally manage to pull some details out of Claire. She’s on the run from her lunatic family, and after five years, is nearing the end of her rope. Good thing she’s stumbled across two Fae warriors who are experts in security. Except, even once they convince her that they’re magical beings, she remains unimpressed and wants to run, to once again become a new person living a half-life, in a desperate attempt to keep those around her safe. Ryan knows she’s scared, but now that he’s gotten a taste for her, he’s not willing to let her race out of his life. Fighting demons is easier than keeping hold of Claire – but not nearly as satisfying.
I’ll keep you updated as I get the cover, official blurb, and release date! Woot!!

Yeah, yeah, but when will I get to read it? :p I know you still have to do edits, but that can’t take too long, right? One day? 😀 Then EC can just make room in their lineup for next week!

Well, maybe we should be a bit more realistic, and give them, say, a week? I’ll let them know they have a new deadline… 😛
