Make a wish?

What I really wanted was a stable job and relationship, to no longer have to move every time one coupling ended or another began. I took a deep breath as I stepped out into the cooler night air. “I wish I could find a man who would love me and whom I would love for the rest of my life.”

Suddenly, a wave of vertigo hit me, as if I’d been knocked off-balance by an invisible force. The door slammed shut behind me, quickly blocking the loud music from inside. I squeezed my eyes shut, willing my senses to right themselves again. I needed to be fully aware of my surroundings out in the alley. I’d only had one drink. Yet, when I opened my eyes, the sight before me left me even more confused.

Instead of escaping into the alley behind Hung, I’d somehow ended up at the edge of a forest. Behind me, the emergency exit in the large brick building had disappeared, giving way to a meadow of tall grasses that swayed in the breeze. Plus, it was daytime. It should be dark. The moon should be out instead of the sun.

Shit, had that punk slipped me something, leaving me in a delusional state?

A couple steps into the forest, I sat on a fallen log. Probably not the best decision with white pants on, but none of it was real anyway.

With my eyes closed, I massaged my temples and took a few deep breaths. That’s when I noticed a difference in the air. In an alley, I expected the combined scents of exhaust, sewage, and a sampling of many food sources. Yet, wherever I’d ended up smelled of moist earth and vegetation with slight floral notes blown in from the meadow.

I can’t really have ended up here, right?

Then, blurry and glowing like a mirage, I spotted a figure walking toward me. A man, naked in all his glory. With his thick thighs, warm-brown skin, and a lightly haired wide chest, he was quite a sight to behold. Yes, definitely a dream.

The last two weeks have been a whirlwind in getting my upcoming release, ONCE UPON A DANCE CLUB WISH, ready. Between edits, cover art, and setting a release date, I've never had a book go through the process this fast. Not even when I self-publish. So, I've been sharing things at various stages in my newsletter, on social media, and here on my blog. Today's post is a catchup so everything here is up-to-date.

Although ONCE UPON A DANCE CLUB WISH officially releases September 27, 2024, the paperback version is already available for those who prefer a physical copy. 

Have you seen the beautiful cover? It was designed by the amazing Fantasia Frog Designs who has created many of my covers over the years.

At the end of August, I finished writing one of the WIPs that I had been working on. After doing self-edits, I submitted it, signed a contract for it, and have already completed the first round of edits through my publisher. But I’ve been keeping the title of this story to myself, simply calling it my MM MPreg Shifter Fantasy Romance WIP. Are you ready for the titles?

​ONCE UPON A DANCE CLUB WISH is the first book in my CITY WISHES & ENCHANTED DREAMS series. They will all be MM MPreg Shifter Fantasy Romances and can be read as stand-alones. Stay tuned for more, including the blurb, cover art, release date, and pre-order link!
