Inspiration comes in all forms. Some listen to music on a twenty-four hour
basis, others take long strolls to connect with nature. What do I do? I watch
endless amounts of TV in, dare I say, impressive amounts of time.
The term binge-watching is a phenomenon that has hooked our nation and changed
the way we view television. In a way, it’s made us impatient, but there is also
something so terribly satisfying about just hunkering down and powering through
some epic television, one episode at a time.
My new book, To Mate a soldier, is a paranormal romance set in an alternate
world where shifters and other fascinating creatures are the main power in a
modern society. In honor of my release in January I’m listing my top five
binge-worthy paranormal TV shows. Here goes!
- Sense 8
A bit about the show: Eight strangers around the world, born on the exact
same day and time, are connected mentally and emotionally to each other. They
use each other’s strengths to help one another and must fight those hunting
them. Diverse cast, new concept, weird yet sexy mental orgies.
- The OA
A blind girl who went missing for seven years turns up but she is no longer
blind. She tells her story to a group of misfits so they can help her with a
mission. Only eight episodes so it’s a quick watch, interesting theories on
death and the afterlife.
- Stranger
Things
If you haven’t seen this 1980’s throwback show yet you’re missing out. A boy
goes missing and his goonies-esque friends set out to find him along with his
determined mother, a jaded Sheriff, and a mysterious little girl with
telekinetic powers. Take Goonies and mix it up with a little Breakfast Club and
add a dash of the supernatural and you’ve got this amazing nostalgic show.
- Doctor Who
An eccentric alien known only as the Doctor travels through time and the galaxy
with various human companions solving mysteries and saving people. This show has
been on for over sixty years so to say it is enduring is an understatement. It’s
weird, its quirky, the production value is sometimes laughable but I think it
only adds to the joy.
- Marvel’s Jessica Jones
An alcoholic and antisocial provate detective with super strength must face the
demons of her past to defeat her enemy. A fantastic cast, an ultra feminist
show, and a genre that boils down to thriller first, superheroes second. This
show should not be missed.
Keep Calm and Binge On.
The Lost
Alphars
Love can push the most hardened warrior to the edge of control…
Lottie Braddock has let everyone believe she’s a widow wasting away from mate
sickness. In reality, she struck a devil’s bargain to conceal her young son’s
true identity—a protection spell that feeds on her life force.
She plans to take one secret regret to her grave—until that regret crashes
through her clinic door with one of her children in the throes of a premature
shift. Desperate for more time, she sets out to find that devil once again and
plead for her life.
Jeremiah Quinn, head soldier of the North American Weres, doesn’t take orders
from anyone. But damned if he’s letting the ailing, fragile Lottie make this
journey alone. He’s known for years she is his mate, and he’s through letting
her push him away.
Come hell or high Magic, he refuses to let her go without a fight. For her
life. For her love. For the love of her sons. Even if saving her soul means
sacrificing his own.
Warning: Contains a healer who’s sacrificed all she has for her family
and a steadfast soldier who isn’t afraid to prove he’s been a part of that
family all along.

I've always had an active imagination. An imagination that usually took form
in the way of zoning out in the middle of conversations. I eventually decided it
was time to share my daydreaming with the world and began to put my musings on
paper. It started with Harry Potter fanfiction and grew from there.
I am
currently living it up in Northern California after a big move from New York
City. And by living it up I mean staying home with my cats, obsessively watching
episodes of my favorite TV shows, all of which are extremely geeky, and
simultaneously reading the next book on my reading list. I do all this while
trying not to pig out on unhealthy snacks. As you can tell, I lead a busy life.
