Hey y'all!
It's August! For those of you who are new to my newsletter, welcome! I appreciate you joining me in this journey! I have exciting news to share as well as books you should read from my author friends.
What's going on?
Since the last time we chatted, I've attended a book signing and released a new book!
Construction Book Boyfriend released on August 1st! It is LIVE and available on Amazon in e-book as well as paperback. It's also in Kindle Unlimited. If you haven't had a chance to read it, check it out! If you're a KU reader, please know it will only be in KU for a limited time. So, get it while you can before I remove it and take it wide.

In late July, I attended Writer's on the River in Peoria, Illinois for the first time. It was great hanging with my author friends as well as meeting new readers and making new author friends. If you have a chance to grab tickets for 2025, I recommend it!
Exciting News!
I'll be going across the pond in 2025. That's right, I'm a signing author at RARE London! I'm so excited to join the RARE family of authors.
Tickets went on sale August 3rd and are currently sold out. But never fear. If you're interested, there will be opportunities to pick up a ticket on the resale thread. Because we all know that life happens, and sometimes people aren't able to make to the event as they planned. If you aren't a member of the RARE Facebook Attendee group, you should join to stay current on the event. It's not required for you to already have a ticket to join.

**Please note, if you don't answer the entry questions, your request to join will be denied.**
Writing update
For a couple of weeks, I've set my Silver Creek Ranch story, The Rancher's Home, aside to work exclusively on my Kindle Vella stories. (I'm getting back to it this week though.)
I did this in preparation for the completion of Draft Pick Season III: Denzel and the launch of Draft Pick Season IV: Vitaly. I have scheduled a week long event with new episodes dropping every day beginning August 12 through August 16th. I don't know if y'all are ready for Vitaly, but he's coming!
If you want to enjoy each story as I write and get a copy on release day, join my Patreon. All levels have access to my current works in progress (under my Darie McCoy pen name) and they receive the completed ebook on or before release day. Decadents and Divas receive a signed paperback with each new release, in addition to the ebook.

What's next?
I'm at the tail end of book event season. However, I have two more events left. My next signing will be in Charlotte, North Carolina at The Boozy Book Tour. I'm really looking forward to meeting all of the readers and spending time chatting in a more intimate setting. Of course, I'll have pics and a recap in my next newsletter.
That's all for now.
Thank you for rocking with me!
Until next time, happy reading! Keep scrolling below for some awesome book recommendations and free downloads!

Deanna ‘DK’ Madkins was starting over. She’d done the mating thing. It failed when she was unable to give her mate the prize he coveted—progeny. After setting him aside, she left the pack of her birth. Her life would be away from shifters and she was fine with that. When she moved to a small town just beyond the borders of the Central Valley Pack’s lands, she thought she’d found the place for her solitary happily ever after. Until…
Circumstances bring the two together, and the sparks which ensue may be more than either is willing or able to handle. Can they find what they didn’t think they would ever have again? What happens when a gruff widowered shifter and a formerly mated she wolf crash into each other? Can they find themselves together? Can love be reclaimed?

Dominique is accustomed to breaking barriers. A super star on the rise, she's kicking down doors previously closed to actresses who look like her. Plus-sized. Dark skinned. With natural hair. She has no plans to become one of Denzel's many conquests, but Mr. Reyes has other plans.
Librarian Book Boyfriend by Niccoyan Zheng
What if your idea of ‘sexy’ is a nerd? A well-read man, who can hold an engaging conversation. That’s all Austen Moore wants. Her expectation doesn’t include a chiseled face, and defined muscles. The last thing she expects is a tall hipster who looks like he knows his way around the bedroom. She is ready to dismiss him on sight. Can Austen give him a chance to prove he can stimulate both her mind and body?

However, there’s a minor blimp on the radar of her happiness, and it soon becomes unignorable.
Paetyn Silva and Cruz Adair have known each other almost their entire lives. Growing up in the same house afforded them the ability to read each other like books they had written. It’s become natural for them to share the women in their lives and try to build a future with them. They’ve had their sights set on Erin since meeting her two years ago. When she moved to Denver, being with her was like breathing. Her happiness and safety are the only things that matter; neither will let anything threaten them.
