Happy Friendship Tea Day!
Far superior to Valentine's Day.
Hello Kittens
So, Valentine’s Day was yesterday… I know, I’m a romance author, it should be just about my favorite day of the year, right? Wrong. I’m not about Valentine’s Day. Don’t get me wrong, I love chocolate, but the Hallmark holiday just isn’t my thing. But, my beautiful group of friends and I have a far superior holiday that we celebrate instead. It’s called Friendship Tea Day. What are we celebrating? Found family, amazing friends who love you on purpose, and the support that a truly nurturing and remarkable circle of friends, who have become family, can be. What do we do on Friendship Tea Day? Well, first off, tea is of paramount importance. Whether you drink it hot or cold, black or green, with sugar or honey, grab a cup and reach out to those who make your life better. Remind your friends who have your back, that you have theirs, that you think about them.
I spent Friendship Tea Day at my brand new job (I’ll tell you all about it next time), talked to my favorite people on our chat, and had a nice and mostly stress free dinner with my kiddos, mom and sister. Yes there was chocolate. I had lovely tea at my mom’s, and then came home to chat with my friends. We live much too far away from each other, and that makes me sad. But maybe one day we’ll get to be closer. Until then, we have lovely vacations to see each other, signings where we meet up, and our Discord server, where we can all be ourselves, all the time, with total freedom and love.
I hope you all had a wonderful Friendship Tea Day (or Valentine’s Day, if that’s what you celebrate), and that you got a chance to remind those that are important to you, that you appreciate them. I also hope there was chocolate (and possibly also tea).
XOXO,
Kat

Whisper is dropping sooner than you expect (By the end of February!!)
You can't shove shifters back into their little box once a woman turns into a raging grizzly in the middle of downtown. The human world was about to be turned upside-down.
Whisper never thought her life would be so good. Living with LOKI, safe and sound from the horrors of her childhood and working as a tattoo artist with her best friend and savior Les was a dream come true. But that dream quickly turns into a nightmare when Paradigm stampedes into Ironwood on the back of dragons and monsters. Kidnapped and thrown into a cage in the depths of an underground facility, Whisper has lost hope. With each passing moment she slips further into her mind, letting her animal–Frigga–take charge to keep the fragile human from falling apart.
Theron (Scar) Aetos has been hiding in plain sight his entire life. There wasn’t ever much choice, when you’re the last of your kind. His animal–Scar–was his only companion. He thought all was lost when he was captured by Paradigm, but that all changed as he was tossed into a cell with his fated mate. Except something is very wrong with the mercurial eyed Whisper, and Theron just can’t work it out. Putting his trust in her may just be his complete undoing as they are both shoved into the limelight when her grizzly comes tearing out of her skin.
Will they be able to escape the sudden celebrity and make space for their mating? Can Whisper come out of her shell and accept the man who claims to love her above all others? And what happens once the lights fade? Can humanity handle the knowledge that their myths and legends have really been lurking in the shadows the entire time?
Peach is reading and raring to go!
Darkness always comes before the dawn, and in this brave new world, there are monsters in the shadows.
The revelation that magic is real has sent the human world into chaos. Fear, anger and panic have ruled the day. In the wake of new laws popping up all over the country aimed to restrict the uses of magic and the movements of shifters, Peach is faced with more problems than she anticipated. Namely her old clan showing up with the evil of all evils, Paradigm, and a sexy biker bear shifter that comes to play hero, and pulls at her in a way her little Crow heart isn't ready to handle. She's already been claimed as a mate once, and she's less than interested in repeating the experience.
Cash left Ironwood Heights behind, but not the Lords of Khaos. Riding as the Pres of their Nomad chapter served him just fine. A life on the road, a new bed every night, and far outside of the shadow of his big brother, Lesleigh. Being called back to the mother chapter wasn't on his bingo card, but then neither was a grizzly shifter making the eight o'clock news. For Cash, the only bright side of being back in Vermont is the inky haired beauty that's his fated mate, even when she's got a knife to his throat.
With the looming changes coming all over the country regarding shifters, can Peach and Cash carve out a little bit of light in the darkest time and find their Happily Ever After? What’s in store for shifter kind and magic in a world that has all but lost its spark?
WHO WANTS A FREE BOOK?!?
This year I have gotten together with some of the very best in Romance, to be able to offer my readers a free book each and every month.
WHAT?
Yes. A free book from some of my favorite authors will be available in my first of the month news letter.
Give & Take
Is there anything as sinfully delicious as forbidden love? Alex and Sophia might not have met before that night she took him home from the bar, but that doesn't mean what they have can withstand their connection outside of the bedroom.
GIVE AND TAKE is a double-plus-sized foray into an age gap where he's submissive and she's... not.
BOOKFAIRS
Every month, I drop a couple of books into a bookfunnel promo. My lovely friend
TK Eldridge has been running them once a month, and I love getting to see all the new authors, finding new favorites, and getting to share them with you.
If you could, please click the link, it helps me so much, and maybe you’ll discover something amazing as well.
Friendship Tea Day sounds delightful. I have a small collection of friends that I work hard to keep close. They mean the world to me.
Do you have a favorite tea? I buy a Honey Vanilla Chamomile blend that's delicious and smells even better. Another recent favorite is called Fireside Vanilla Spice.
Happy friendship day, my gorgeous and talented friend! So excited for your upcoming LOKI adventures.
