Your Support Has Blown Me Away 🥰
Aug 23, 2023 3:01 pm
Wow! Have to admit I'm humbled by your support with Gift of Water's release. After I failed to meet the publishing deadline on Kindle, I was fully prepared to wave farewell as Jasmin and Gregor descended to the depths of obscurity. 😔 But all the voracious readers of the Teutonic Fantasy Realm stepped up to give their story the boost it deserves, and I'm so grateful for you!
As of today, Gift of Water is finally available on all online retailers—Kindle, Kobo, Nook, Apple, Google Play, and Smashwords—along with library platforms like Libby, Baker & Taylor, and BorrowBox. You can also get the eBook from my online book shop, and the discount code WATERWITCH is active until the end of this week. Now's the time to dive into Jasmin's adventurous love story!
What Readers Are Saying
I'd also like to offer a gigantic thank you to my awesome group of ARC readers, because reviews are starting to pour in at all of the usual places. It looks like Gift of Water is resonating with a lot of you, which is a big relief since this was the first time I've ever written about a "fake" relationship. 😜 It definitely made for lots of crazy shenanigans as Jasmin and Gregor got to know each other!
Ready to get your copy of Gift of Water and find out what all the hype's about? I'll drop all the relevant links below, and don't forget you can get a 15% discount on the eBook if you buy it directly from my book shop. Just enter the code WATERWITCH at checkout to claim your discount!

If you'd prefer to read Jasmin's story using a subscription program, why not check out Kobo Plus? It's the same concept as Kindle Unlimited, but without the exclusivity clause that forces indie authors to publish in only one place. All four books in my Elemental Bloodlines series—plus all six in my complete series, His Name Was Augustin—are ready to binge on Kobo Plus. 📚 Take a look!
Note: The graphic above includes the US link to Kobo Plus. This program is also available in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Portugal, Italy, France, and the Netherlands. 💖
The Forest Is Calling Me....
So now that Gift of Water is out in the wild, where are C.L. Carhart's writing muses going to carry us next? You'll have to wait until next month for me to fully spill the beans, because this Friday happens to be my birthday. 🎊 And that means my husband and I will be scampering off the grid for a quick camping trip in the western North Carolina mountains.
Not sure if we'll get the chance to admire any waterfalls during our camping expedition, but I'm looking forward to roasting hot dogs and marshmallows over the fire and listening to the sounds of a stream trickling along while I'm wrapped up in my sleeping bag. Hope to share some more pix with you next week! 🏞

Other Books You Might Like
Got 2 stories to share with you by my fellow indie authors. One looks like a steamy vampire romance, while the other one's a witchy urban fantasy. Be sure to grab whichever book captures your interest. Even better, snatch them both!
Joel lost his mate to a man who has already taken everything from him. Now it's time Charlotte is returned. Nobody should interfere with fate. His adversary? His brother. A powerful warrior. If he had to fight for her, he would. To the death.
What he wasn't prepared for is the curvy human peering at him behind shy blue eyes and breasts that make his mouth water. She should run. She has no idea the danger she's in.
Quinn is proud to be the manager of Portland's most prestigious hotel. Having the hottest sex of her life with a guest was not on her to-do list, and yet even as her instincts scream that he's not a good man, she can't stop giving him everything he demands.
Until it's too late.
What would you do to save a kid? Fight like hell.
That's what bounty hunter Rebel Weston finds herself doing when a desperate witch asks her to track down her son.
Remy Fontaine has a gift that's become his curse. He can juice up supernaturals and mythical beasts with enough magical motivation to beat impossible odds.
That gift has gotten him kidnapped into a legendary fighting ring where the best heroes and worst monsters meet their matches and then some. For one night only, Rebel gets her chance to win him back. Can she rise to the task?
That's all for me this week, because I've got lots of stuff to do before I can vanish into the mountains for a much-needed getaway. Plus, my muses have already started cooking up ideas for the next book in Elemental Bloodlines—and it seems like this one's going to hit hard. 🤩
Make sure to get your copy of Gift of Water so you can be all caught up on Teutonic life in Wildertal before the next installment hits. If you grab the eBook from my book shop, enter the code WATERWITCH at checkout for 15% off.
Have a wonderfully weird week, and I'll reconnect once I've emerged from nature's wilderness. 🌳
Talk to you soon,
