A gargoyle's heart is not made of stone...
Sep 27, 2022 2:01 pm
Heart of a Gargoyle is here, my Wylde-lings! Woohoo! A few days later than initially intended, but it couldn't be helped.
You can't imagine how crazy my life is right now. This week, I'm packing all my things, and next week, I'm moving. Please send prayers and good vibes, because I NEED this new place to be okay. I need it to be good for me and my creativity, so I can write awesome books next year.
This move is costing us a lot, too. We hired a moving company that we used in the past, and we know they do great work, disassembling and reassembling furniture, they don't break anything, etc etc. But they're expensive AF. And it still doesn't mean I won't have to pack some things myself. I will leave a lot behind. You know... moving every 2-3 years helps with decluttering, for sure.
All right, so back to the bookish news.
As I was saying, Heart of a Gargoyle went live today. It is available in Kindle Unlimited, as usual, and I also have the next book in the Monster Hearts series up for pre-order.
I hope you enjoy my gargoyle prince!

There are two things that define me: my career in science, and my status as a single woman. When people meet Dr. Lola Reyes, they immediately know I’m only interested in the hard facts. But after working for the International Monster Research Association for two years, I’m starting to lose faith in what I do. Yes, I want to continue studying aliens. No, I don’t want to do it in the inhumane manner IMRA seems to do everything.
I’m about to quit when I’m assigned to Project Gargoyle. I give in and accept to at least see the subject first.
The alien specimen is tall, dark, with horns, wings, and a tail. He is Project Gargoyle because his skin is like hard, unbreakable stone. I look into his eyes, and I know I can’t leave now. He intrigues me. He says he’s a prince from planet Petera, on the run from his brother’s assassins. He also says I’m his fated mate, and if I escape with him, he can take back the throne.
Indeed, he intrigues me.

Heart of a Centaur
Pre-order it now!

I thought I was doing the right thing. Hunting down alien monsters for IMRA, stopping them from hurting people. I’m a hunter, and my job is done once they’re captured and caged.
But then the tables turn, and I end up the prisoner of a centaur. He calls himself Athos and says he’s a scholar from planet Yacheron. He’s been living on Earth for years, isolated in the mountains, never hurting anyone. I don’t know if I should believe him. He tells me I’m his guest, not his prisoner, and as time passes and we’re forced to live in his hut until I heal, he reveals to me that I’m his… mate.
How can it be possible? This attraction I feel… All-consuming, almost obsessive… It’s madness. Because I’m human, and he’s only half man. We weren’t made to fit together.

My story in this set:
Most Unholy Pumpkin Spice
A demon once summoned is bound to his witch.
That is the first rule of demon summoning. But don’t blame me for not knowing! I just found out I’m a witch.
All I wanted was a hot pumpkin spice latte on a cozy, rainy day. What I got was a demon crawling into my bed at night. He has horns, a tail, hooved feet, and a body worth being damned to Hell for.
I never thought soul corruption could taste so delicious.

Uthar the Hunter

Beth rushed past him and only stopped after she’d put the couch and the coffee table between them.
Uthar furrowed his brows.
“What are you doing?” he asked. “It’s time to go to our bedroom.”
“No, it’s not.”
He was confused for a second, but then his expression changed to one of displeasure. What Beth couldn’t understand was how he still managed to look handsome when he looked at her like that. It should’ve turned her off, but his attitude of dominance and command caused, in fact, an unexpected heat to rise in her belly. Defying him felt almost exhilarating. Because she couldn’t predict what he would do.
He wasn’t dangerous, that much her gut told her.
“Beth, you heard what I said at dinner...”
“I did.”
“And I told you on the way home...”
“I don’t understand any of it! You have to start with the beginning and explain everything to me. Like I’m five! Because I’m lost, Uthar!”
“But you’re not five.” He sounded even more confused. “You are my bride, and you must fulfill your duty. Willingly. That is why you’re here. That is why you volunteered to be a tribute and be chosen by an orc.”
“I... I know... But I guess I didn’t... expect things to move so fast.” Her breathing increased, and she pressed a hand to her chest. Not again! She hadn’t had a panic attack in months. And suddenly, she had to fight one every few hours. “Tell me what’s happening. Make me understand. You can’t demand I open my legs for you on day one and let you... let you... breed me.” She couldn’t believe she’d said the word. It sounded so sinful... Almost dirty. Her core throbbed, and her panties became just a tiny bit wet. She felt her cheeks flush. This was all kinds of wrong. She hadn’t signed up for this! Or maybe... she had?
Uthar squared his shoulders and regarded her with stubbornness.
“I don’t have to explain anything to you. I’ve told you plenty already.”
“No. No, no, no.” She shook her head. “I might be a tribute, but I have rights.”
