The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.
The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.

Romance Reads
Dark Desire, by Christine Feehan. My all time favorite Carpathian novel. And anything else by Christine Feehan is also a wonderful read!
The Book of True Desires, by Betina Krahn. Hilarious adventure romance set in the jungles of Central America. (In fact, all of Betina's back list is well worth a read if you love historical romance. She's wickedly funny and a skilled story teller.)
Lord of Scoundrels, by Loretta Chase
Flowers in the Storm, by Laura Kinsale
Dreaming of You, by Lisa Kleypas
Dark Lover, by J.R. Ward - okay, I'm hooked now.

What I'm Working on Now
Now that QOSSS is done, I'm working on TAIREN SOUL, the 5th and final book in the Tairen Soul series. TAIREN SOUL will conclude Rain and Ellysetta's story. No release date yet. Watch this space!
Also in progress: THE WINTER KING. When the heir of Summerlea stole Wynter Atrialan's bride and murdered his brother, the Winter King swore vengeance on the neighboring southern kingdom. Now, after three years of merciless war, Summerlea is crushed, and the conquering Wynter aims a final blow at his enemy's heart by demanding one of the Summer King's beloved daughters in marriage.
But the Summer King has a fourth daughter...one of whom he is not so fond. And she is is no sweet, helpless princess-in-a-tower. She is a fiercely passionate creature, with a nature as volatile as the dangerous forces of her weathergift, the power of storms.
Watch this space for release date.

I am done travelling for the year. It's been great fun - and I loved meeting everyone who came out to see me at RT, OASIS, RWA National, DragonCon, and RAW this year.
Where to Find my Books
My books are available in online and brickes & mortar bookstores and anywhere else mass market paperback books are sold. If you don't see LORD, LADY, or KING on the shelves, please ask the store personnel. Sometimes (particularly in some of the larger bookstores) the books may be located in several different places in the store, and your local bookstore can always order more copies from their distributor if they've already sold out.
Hardcover book club editions of KING and QUEEN are also available through DoubleDay and Rhapsody book clubs
LORD and LADY have also been translated into German.

The Making of a Romance Novel Cover.
One of my fellow Dorchester authors, Marianne Mancusi, is a tv producer for her day job, working on a show called Better TV. Recently she and Better TV partnered with Dorchester Publishing to do a story on how a romance novel cover is created - from concept to final product. The piece aired and is now up on their website if any of you would like to take a look! They featured the cover of QUEEN OF SONG AND SOULS, my fourth Tairen Soul book (due out 2/24/09).
You can view the YouTube version of the feature story here:

As a way of thanking my readers, I'm running a very special contest, my MERRY CHRISTMAS BALL CONTEST . On December 1st, one lucky person will win a $100 gift card just in time for Christmas shopping.
Thanks for adding me. I am a huge Christine Feehan fan. I always go back to re-read her books. And find myself picking up something I missed from before.
I finaly found a copy of the Queen book at a Waldenbooks. But they had to go into the backroom to find it. Was about to give up hope of ever finding it. Hoping to stretch this into a two day read and not finish it in one evening. ;)
I enjoyed Queen of Song and Souls very much. It was incredible and I didn't want to put it down. I tried to read it as slow as possible. When is the conclusion coming out? I can't wait to see how it all ends! Also are you going to write any other series about the Fey or do you have any other series about the Fey out?
Keep up the fantastic writing. This has been one of the best series I have had the pleasure of reading in a long while.
LOLs! Thanks for the add and the comment! I'm honored you visited my page! LKH rocks, Anita is the bomb, but Ellysetta is a good second! (That's two different rating systems, though.) As for Florida, it's sixty-eight and windy here! Good luck with sales on QOSAS. Hope Tampa is warmer!
Can't wait for Queen of Song and Souls to hit the stores !! But, your killing me now I'm gona Have to wait for the 5th book But you know your loved! Keep the books coming!!!!!!!
