Cover Artist: Kelly Martin of KAM Design DARKE PASSION Darke Paranormal Investigations #1 by Rosanna Leo Edwina Darke is one of a trio of ghost-hunting sisters who rid clients of their unwanted supernatural visitors. A badass by nature, Edwina doesn’t run from haunted houses—she runs into them. Yet no matter how many “ghosts” she debunks, she remains troubled by a demon from her own past. Simon Teal is the co-owner of a historic B&B in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, a town famous for its connection to the 1812 War. Simon doesn’t believe in the spirit world, but something is chasing his customers away, so he reluctantly allows the Darke sisters to investigate. As the team uncovers the star-crossed love behind the B&B haunting, Edwina and Simon’s attraction flares. It’s the last thing either of them needs. The dedicated Edwina refuses to lose herself in another relationship, and Simon is still reeling from a terrible betrayal. When a darker presence reveals itself, triggering their protective instincts, Edwina and Simon succumb to temptation. But the evil entity has taken an interest in them, and if they don’t solve the mystery, someone new could end up going “into the light.” And it could be one of them.

So much fun! Make sure to head over and enter, and good luck! Hello everyone! Thank you for visiting me today for Weekend Writing Warriors! I missed a couple weeks as I was busy helping my oldest child move for post-secondary education. That sure brought about some big changes. Especially since we had spent so much time together over the last couple of years due to the pandemic. But I have a book releasing in little over a week, so I must get back to work. Today I'm sharing another snippet from RET, the third book in my Kaddim Brothers series, which is set to release September 12, 2022. Snippet setup: Last time, ORIXA was back at their weekend accommodations after their win, and getting ready to go out to the club after. Ilam always chose to stay in, but Ret invited him, once again, to come out with the team so he could buy him a drink. Well, Ilam denied his request, staying in again. But Ret still went to the club and was hit on by one of the many space racer fans. Ret didn't mind, but the evening didn't quite go as he expected. Enjoy! Holding the back of his head, I lined my tongue along his lips. He opened to me as he ground hard across my lap. I took our kiss deep, getting to know how well he could use his tongue. Not as inexperienced as I’d first believed. And strangely familiar. Like I already knew him. I needed him closer. We were kissing at an awkward angle, and there was too much space between us. I pulled away, ready to move him, have him straddle my lap. Be chest to chest, groin to groin, until I was ready to take him somewhere else. Only it was no longer the young Tanvanian on my lap when I looked into his eyes, but Ilam. ** And a little more... I pushed him off and jumped up. I’d wanted my teammate to come with me to the club for a drink. Not that. He was an omega, but I’d never thought of him like that. Never. Not once. What was wrong with me? “What was that for?” I stared at Ilam. Though it wasn’t really him. It was the Tanvanian who’d hit on me. I couldn’t remember his name. But I realized who he’d reminded me of from the beginning. Stars, had I really been thinking of my youngest teammate when I’d been kissing this guy? I stood, shoving my chair behind me. What in the universe had just happened? Had I had too much to drink already? Or not enough? RET Kaddim Brothers book three Ret Kaddim has the perfect life. He’s a space racer, the leader of the most popular team across the universe. Always planning, practicing, and racing, he has no time for a relationship, but finds plenty of willing partners who agree to his one-night-only rule. Because there is no way he wants to end up in a relationship and stuck with a family like his younger brothers. He’s having too much fun for that. Ilam Nairan always dreamed of becoming a space racer. And thanks to a chance encounter with a retired racer, he is now living that dream. Far away from the mated and pregnant omega life his parents wanted him to have, he loves everything about his life. It’s perfect. But one night can change everything. Especially when too much alcohol is involved. Can these two teammates survive the resulting media storm? What will it mean for their careers? The future of the team? And for them? Ret is a sweet with knotty heat mm non-shifter mpreg sci-fi romance featuring an alpha space racer and an omega space racer who both believe they’ll always be single, snarky but loveable teammates, lots of space racing, endearing family members, an adorable baby, and a guaranteed happily ever after. If you enjoy teammates realizing they have feelings for each other, and all the obstacles those bring, be sure to download Ret today!
