For those of you who’ve been following the release of my Lethal in Love serial, you’ll know that all six episodes are out in the big wide world of the web. So, now that my baby is all grown up and left the nest you might ask, what next?
Oh, so many projects on the boil.
First, my wonderful writing group, the Melbourne Romance Writers Guild, has put together a collection of short stories. Writers, both aspiring and published, have come together to produce an anthology marking our guild’s 25th anniversary. The title, Sweet and Spicy.
Exciting times.
My romantic suspense, Cold Case, Warm Heart, is one of 18 stories included in the anthology.
What’s it about, you might ask?
Homicide detective Calamity Dresden has twenty-four hours to catch a killer. Estranged lover and murder victim’s son Sebastian Rourke is determined to help. But when things heat up, can the two keep their minds on the case and their hands off each other?
The Sweet and Spicy anthology is a collection of love stories and romance
fiction, from the Melbourne Romance Writers Guild, a group of Australian
authors. The collection includes contemporary, historical, paranormal,
sweet to erotic short stories. For 25 years the Guild has supported romance
genre authors as they strive towards publication and beyond. Enjoy
a taste of romance from new authors, many previously unpublished.
And the rest of my news?
Christmas is coming!
And with that in mind, I have another short story due for release in December with Penguin Random House. The Candy Cane Killer.
For those who’ve read Lethal in Love, this story is a precursor featuring Chase and Georgie.
Three weeks, three deaths and one bloodied, sugar-coated clue.
A serial killer is making his mark on the streets of Melbourne this Christmas,
killing his victims and leaving a blood-dipped candy cane as his gruesome
calling card. Georgie Tanneras is lead on the case and will do anything to
keep the streets of her city safe. So when the killer strikes his third victim,
she determines it will be his last. If only she can keep her mind on the case
and off her partner’s muscle-clad shoulders and sexy smile.
Then the killer moves in and she finds herself in the line of fire. As the case
gets personal and temperatures soar, will her obsession mean she pays the
ultimate price?
This year, Georgie’s Christmas promises to be cold and deadly, with a chance of romance.
What’s in store for you this Chrissy?
