Hi, everyone! As I write this post, I’m taking a breather from my copy-edit work on MIDNIGHT SINS. (I really love that title!) I’m enjoying checking in with the characters in this book–my heroine is a succubus. (This is the first time I’ve written a demon book; in the past, I’ve been a shifter or vampire girl.) Researching the succubus, well, now that was a fun experience. Try Googling “succubus”–when you see the results, you’ll understand what I mean. :-)

I can’t remember if I’ve posted the cover for MIDNIGHT SINS yet, so I’ll just put it up (again?).

What do you think?

And here’s my blurb for MIDNIGHT SINS:

Cara Maloan doesn’t look like a monster. In fact, the gorgeous blond nightclub singer possesses heavenly attributes that make Atlanta detective Todd Brooks sure there’s a higher power somewhere. But a twisted killer is leaving a trail of bodies in seedy hotel rooms across town. The male victims show no wounds–it’s as if the life was simply drained from them. And right now, mysterious Cara is Todd’s only suspect.

Cara knows it’s foolish to be so drawn to a man who thinks she’s a murderer. She also knows Detective Brooks would find the truth even harder to swallow. Cara is one of the Other, a race of powerful, paranormal creatures who live among humans. Cara’s particular abilities make men putty in her hands–all except this rugged, sexy-as-hell detective. But now someone, or something, has singled Cara out for serious payback.

As uneasy trust gives way to mind-blowing desire, Cara and Todd will go head-to-head with a killer whose mission is deeply personal, and who’s determined to serve up revenge that’s hotter than hellfire, and just as deadly…

When I was in the process of writing this story and my friends asked me to describe it, I told ‘em it was Basic Instinct meets The X-Files (and, by the way, I’m really looking forward to that new movie! Mulder, I have missed you!).

But I’d probably better get back to reviewing the copy-edits…

Before I go, I feel the urge to give away a prize. I’ve got an ARC of EVERLASTING BAD BOYS just sitting here, waiting to be read. Want it? If so, then leave me a comment—tell me a summer movie or book you’re looking forward to—and I’ll be back on Saturday to pick a winner.

Thanks!
