You know, Iโve always been a rebel. No really, I have. I mean, one time when I
was a Senior in high school, I totally left school at lunch without a pass and
went to the public library. I know, ballsy. I reveled in the heady excitement of
that for the rest of the school year.
Okay, so maybe โrebelโ isnโt exactly the word we should use. I did used to play
Bon Jovi and Billy Idol really loudly on my boombox. Well, not loud enough for
the neighbors to hear. I didnโt want to drive anyone but my poor parents insane.
All right, so Iโm not exactly a rebel, but I do like to do things differently. I
donโt want to cook the same things over and over again. I donโt want to listen
to the same music endlessly. I donโt want to read the same formula story
repeatedly. Now, wearing the same sweatpants year after year, Iโm good with
that. You have to get them worked into that perfect fit.
Anyway, people will often ask me which sub-genre of Romance that I write. โUhโฆโ
my brain offers me somewhat nonsensical drivel. You kind of, sort of write
Fantasy Romance with a twist, or maybe Contemporary with very slight Paranormal
elements. โNo!โ I argue, but not verbally as that would probably make the asker
concerned for my mental well-being. My brain continues. โReally itโs Urban
Fantasy, and a few of the couples are New Adult.โ
However, if I say all of this, the person asking me the question is more
confused after my reply than they were before. See, Iโm the author you want if
you think you donโt like Fantasy and youโre sure you donโt like Paranormal, but
youโre looking for something new and different.
I wanted to write these sexy stories about some fantastic characters that had a
very slight twist. I donโt do vampires, zombies, creatures of any kind, and my
characters could live next door to you, and you would have no idea they were
different.
They can control the energy of the earth and of their own bodies. Think about
that for just a moment. They might be able to reheat your bath water with their
hands or charge your Kindle for you if it has a low battery, but they can also
access their loverโs erotic energy and that makes for some very sexy love
scenes. Ultimately, theyโre all just like you and me. They have flaws, desires,
dislikes, and preferences. Theyโre sensual, desirous, and thirsty for justice,
and all of that plays out in The Gifted Realm.
They might just be that thing youโve been looking for. Something new and
different but still devastatingly hot and sexy with a rip-roaring tale that they
want to share.
With the quick lock of their eyes on one another, the passion ignites. Their
bodies speak volumes that can never be shared. As long as Dan Vindico keeps
Fionna Styler between him and his bed sheets, sheโll be safe. If anyone finds
out about the two of them, sheโll be at the very top of every Interfeci hit
list. Keeping anyone from knowing that his world now rises and sets to the
rhythms of her body is all that matters.
The Realm prepares for a long anticipated trial, the birth of the new Crown
Governorโs baby, and the wedding of the century. Everything is going according
to plan until one night threatens to unravel every precaution and every
safeguard Dan has set to keep Fionna safe. If he doesnโt end the Interfeci soon,
heโs going to lose everything, including Fionna.
Dominic Wretchkinsides, head of the Interfeci criminal organization, goes
several steps too far, and Dan declares war. They meet in a heated battle where
the winner takes all and there are no holds barred. Could getting everything
heโs wanted for so long cost Dan Vindico everything he already has? Can he keep
Fionna safe or will everything heโs worked for be All but Lost?
