July/August '09
Hello,
ReaderFolk!
We're bunkered in against the heat. While the east half of the country
has a cool, wet summer, we're sweltering in the holy moly heat. Still,
in late May Belle entered her first AKC FAST classes and qualified
all three days to earn her title. Connery continues to close in on
his MACH--a title that requires 20 perfect Double-Qs and 750 speed
points. And Duncan, you can see, has learned to open the backyard gate
and make himself at home.
The new office desk is here and assembled and wonderful! Oh,
sure, things are still a mess in the background--still waiting for that
final Sorting of the Files. Do you suppose chaos is my natural environment?
But the books wait for no one! The second Reckoners book roars full-speed
ahead towards the last page, a complete and total Attack Book (such fun!). Jaguar
Night and Wild Thing are still available, much to my delight.
And Lion Heart is on the shelves. Meet Joe Ryan, all-American...um...mountain
lion....
Joe Ryan has a rep as an unproven bad seed, a cougar-shifter whom no one will
work with. His former partner is dead and while everyone suspects his involvement,
no one can prove either his guilt or his innocence. But ocelet-shifter Lyn
Maines, deeply scarred by corruption in her family's past, is determined to
do just that--even after she realizes her instant attraction to him.
Yet neither Joe nor Lyn realize how deeply the Atrum Core has affected the
area by siphoning energy from the powerful San Francisco Peaks of Joe's home--and
the only way to stop it is if Joe and Lyn can overcome their deep differences
to not only love together, but to work together...
"Vivid
imagery and magical circumstances make SENTINELS: LION HEART believable and
profoundly emotional...SENTINELS: LION HEART weaves a touching romance into
a story packed with hidden intrigue and an abundance of magical adventures." --CataRomance

my website--it's there somewhere...
There are postcards going out,

And doggone it if I haven't gone
and signed up on Facebook.
I've been blogging around--most
of those have been linked in my newsgroup or
