Marisa's Ramblings

I signed, and then mailed off, the new contract I received from BookStrand, sister company to Siren Publishing, for my new paranormal short story called Turquoise Eye of Horus. As you can probably tell from the title, it has an Egyptian god theme to it as well as a shape shifter theme. This will be the first story in a series of short stories that I’ve called Egyptian Shifters. I’m already working on the proposals for the next three stories to send into BookStrand. I really do love anything to do with ancient Egypt and shape shifters .

Book Three in my werewolf series, Seducing the Wolf, now has a release date. It will be released at Liquid Silver Books on Sept. 8th. This also means I have to start getting my thoughts organized for Book Four. I still have a few more werewolf book ideas bouncing around in my head . This also will be released exactly one year and two days from when my debut novel, The Blue Lotus, was released at Liquid Silver. Hard to believe I’ve been a published author for almost a year now. The year has seemed to just fly by.

My second historical romance called Lady Knight was released today at Siren Publishing. As I’ve said before, Lady Knight was the very first book I wrote, so that makes its release extra special for me. You can find it on Siren’s website HERE. I’ll post the blurb below. There’s also an excerpt on my website, which can be found on my Excerpts page.

Blurb:

Saxon Lady Ariel of Elmstead disguises herself as a boy and leads her father’s men to battle the Norman invaders. Her goal is to find the Norman knight who left her with child the year before. The only clue she has to his identity is the ring he gave her.

During the battle of Hastings, Broc St. Ceneri takes a young Saxon boy as his hostage. The boy so resembles the Saxon girl he can’t forget, Broc offers to train him as a knight after he is granted Elmstead as his own.

With Broc unable to see through her disguise, Ariel must decide whether to risk all by revealing her secret, or say nothing and let the man she loves wed another.
