I’m excited to tell you that Restless Sea Lord – Book 1 of my Legendary Bastards of the Crown Series is now live! Rowen the Restless is one of the bastard triplets of the king and is set on revenge toward the father that wanted them killed. Lady Cordelia gets caught in the midst of a raid and is taken captive by Rowen – the pirate.

For a short time, you will be able to purchase this book on not only amazon but Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and iTunes. Watch for Ruthless Knight – Book 2, and Reckless Highlander – Book 3, coming this winter!

I hope to meet some of you at the InD’Scribe Author and Reader Conference in Burbank, California on Oct. 6 – 9th. You will also have a chance to meet my cover model, Michael Foster, and we will both be happy to sign a copy of the book for you.

I’d like to extend to you the Conference Specials. (Watch dates, as this hasn’t started yet.) From Oct 5–9 you can get an ebook copy of The Baron’s Bounty for FREE! After that, you can also get the audiobook for only $1.99. This book is one of my favorites since it not only has a murder mystery but a heroine with a shoe fetish – who uses it to find the killer.

Also on special from Oct 6-10, you can get a FREE ebook of the Daughters of the Dagger Prequel. (Audiobook only $1.99 afterwards.)

And from Oct 5-11, all the books of the series are on kindle countdown for only 99 cents each! (Notice the new covers.) Ruby, Sapphire, Amber & Amethyst all for under $4, and be sure to get your $1.99 copies of the audiobooks afterwards.

Did you know that the traditions of Halloween started back in the medieval times? It originated as a pagan tradition of Samhain and eventually the church got involved and called it All Hallow’s Eve, followed by All Souls’ Day. Children would go door to door collecting soul cakes (trick or treating) and for each one eaten, a poor departed soul would be set free on that night when the veil was pushed aside and the dead could come back to life.

Hollowed out gourds with candles inside (jack-o-lanterns) were used to fend off evil spirits, and on this day men could dress like women, and vice versa (costumes.)  You can find out more about the tradition in my book, Ian – Book 3 of my MadMan MacKeefe Series. I have it as part of a 99 cent boxed set for a limited time in Spellbound Hearts. Almost all of my books are free to read if you are a Kindle Unlimited member. So are the new multi-author boxed sets called Myth, Magic & Moonlight and Love, Honor, & Redemption. These are full-length books by bestselling authors, so pick up your copy for 99 cents today.

Have a wonderful – and not too spooky, Halloween!
