RT Tidbits - There's Never a Cop Around When You Need One!

There's Never a Cop When You Need One...Especially when you want to take a selfie with him. Or in this case, a #SWATSELFIE!
My hubby and I were hanging out with my assistant Janet outside the ballroom area when a Dallas PD cop did a walk-through. Apparently, they hang out at the hotel at nights keeping the peace. 

Well, after he went back into the lobby area, I offhandedly said to hubby and Janet that I should get a picture with him and Xander, the werewolf from my SWAT Series, or rather the cute plush wolf that represents him! 

But when Janet and I went to ask him, he disappeared. Not to be deterred, she asked one of the people who work at the hotel if they knew where he was. Well, she asked. I hid behind a pillar with Xander trying not to laugh, sure the guy from the hotel would think we're crazy!

But no. He told us the cop was upstairs at the restaurant on break having dinner. So Janet and I go upstairs, along with one of my fangirls, Kelli. 

So, Janet marches into the restaurant, which is closed by the way, and walks right over to the cop to explain who I am and that we'd like a picture with him. I suppose I should mention that Kelli and I are outside peeking through a metal sculpture were hiding behind. Actually she was doing the peeking. I was standing there with Xander having the giggles while Kelli gave me the play by play.

"He's listening... He's nodding... Now he's smiling... Oooh, he's getting up..."

He is?!

OMG! Xander and I were actually going to get a pic with a fellow cop  from the DPD! 

In the interest of full disclosure, I should mention that Janet had no idea I hadn't followed her into the restaurant until she turned to introduce me. The cop looked at her a little funny, but she just smiled and said, "She's shy."

So, Xander and I got our picture with a fellow DPD officer and even gave him one of my cards and told him all about my SWAT Series!

Cover Reveal - IN THE COMPANY OF WOLVES (SWAT 3)!

Here's the cover for IN THE COMPANY OF WOLVES (SWAT 3) featuring the hunky David Kimmerle! Sourcebooks has the best art department! I love it! :)


There’s a new gang of criminals in town and it’s organized, ruthless, and, most importantly, a pack of wolf shifters. Eric Becker and his Dallas SWAT Team are determined to rid their streets of these lowlifes, but when his fellow cops collide with the criminals in a shoot-out, he finds himself face–to-face with the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen.

Incapable of shooting or arresting the alluring shifter who’s stolen his heart, Becker decides to hide her and leave the scene with the rest of his team. Now Jayna, his mystery woman, is left not only wondering why she was protected, but also what a street-savvy thief like her is going to do with a hot alpha wolf officer like him…

Look for IN THE COMPANY OF WOLVES (SWAT 3) in paperback and ebook online and in stores everywhere Dec 1, 2015!

It's Release Day for HER WILD HERO, Book 3 in my Action-Packed X-OPS Series!

It’s finally release day for HER WILD HERO, Book 3 in my action-packed X-OPS Series! It’s available online and in bookstores in ebook and paperback! It’s also the Barnes & Noble Bookseller Pick for May!

After meeting Kendra and Declan in HER PERFECT MATE (X-OPS 1), I knew they were going to end up together.  Which was why it was so hard to keep it a secret when readers asked which guy the DCO’s resident Jill-of-all-trades was going to fall for. But while I knew Kendra and Declan were going to end up together, you wouldn’t believe how difficult it was actually getting them together. Those two definitely didn’t make it easy for me, but there story was well worth the wait!

Name: Kendra Carlsen

Rank: Trainer, Dept. of Covert Ops
Objective: Get out of the office and into the field

Name: Declan MacBride

Rank: Tracker, Dept. of Covert Ops
Status: Bear Shifter
Objective: Protect Kendra at all costs

The steamy Costa Rican jungle brings out the bear in Declan MacBride when he and new operative Kendra Carlsen are ambushed. In the midst of relying on each other to survive, and fighting his explosive attraction to Kendra, this shifter is about to lose control...



Excerpt:


Being so close to her shouldn’t bother him. He’d gotten over his crush on her and moved on. As he stole occasional glances at her, he knew that was a crock of shit. He’d tried; he really had. But since deciding four months ago that enough was enough and it was past time he stop pining for a woman who refused to even acknowledge his existence, he’d been miserable as hell.

He bit back a growl. Damn, he was pathetic. But there was something about Kendra that attracted him like a bear to honey. He might have chuckled at the analogy if it wasn’t so damn fitting.


Kendra had already been firmly established with the DCO when he’d shown up seven years ago. Back then, she’d mostly shadowed the training officers and watched—taking notes, making her quiet observations and recommendations directly to the trainers. At the time, Declan had been coming off the disaster that was his relationship with Marissa, so he hadn’t been interested in getting involved with any woman. 


Plus, he’d been consumed with trying to fit in with his team and learn everything they had to teach him. He had no military training to fall back on, so there’d been a lot to learn. By the time he’d gotten his head above water, he already had it bad for the behavioral scientist.


Unfortunately, he couldn’t string together two sentences whenever he was around her. He wasn’t a Romeo with the ladies by any stretch of the imagination, but he’d never gotten tongue-tied around women—not even his former fiancée. But it wasn’t hard to see why Kendra had that effect on him. She was beautiful and smart, made him smile like no other woman ever had, made the camouflage uniform she was wearing look way sexier than it should, and she smelled delicious as hell.


His nose usually wasn’t that good—mostly because he never used it—except when it came to Kendra. Then it worked just fine. Sometimes he could pick up her scent from the far side of the DCO training complex. Sitting this close to her now, it was the only thing he could smell, and it was overwhelming. He closed his eyes, hoping to block out her scent, but it was useless.


Her pheromones surrounded him, holding him prisoner and refusing to let go.


He’d tried to catch Kendra’s eye for years and fallen flat on his face every time—because she was too busy obsessing over that jerk Clayne Buchanan. It had taken Declan a while, but he finally realized he was wasting his time—and his life—waiting for her and had decided to move on.


And it had been working. He’d gotten to the point where he didn’t think about her 24/7, didn’t subconsciously sniff the air to catch her scent the minute he drove onto the DCO complex. He’d even dated a few women he’d thought might have had long-term potential. There might not have been that same animal attraction he felt with Kendra, and he’d have to hide his shifter side, but that wasn’t too high a price to pay to be normal, right?


Before today he thought he’d been well on his way to forgetting about Kendra and getting on with his so-called life. Then John had decided to send her on this mission and everything Declan thought was in the past came right back and smacked him in the face.


For the first time in forever, he wanted to put his fist through a wall. But as he felt his anger rise again, he realized he wasn’t angry at John or Tate or even Kendra. He was mad at himself for being so screwed up that the mere thought of being in the same jungle as the blond-haired, blue-eyed beauty could get him so twisted up in knots.


Damn, he really was pathetic.
