Catching Up With Cadence & Meki from A Love Deferred

I’m so deep into Gluttony that there’s no turning back now, which is a great thing, because the love I’m nurturing for this project has me enjoying every chapter I create. The details in Gluttony are so precise, I’m taking my time to bring them to life in story form. The details matter and the details help move the story forward. I can’t wait to share more. 

As mentioned in a previous post, I have plans to include a few familiar faces from my previously published stories. While a lot of the couple updates have and will continue to appear in the BK Book Lounge (there’s a new glimpse publishing next soon!) some couples deserve an update too detailed for a glimpse but too short for another book.

Meki and Cadence Knight (nee Cadence Nice) are one of those couples.

#BookBirthdays: They Call Me Mello Turned 4 Today

Every writer has that one character that was easy for them to create. While there may be many characters that have challenged them, there’s always that one character who seems to pour out of our fingers while creating a project and even if you tried, you’ll never forget them.

Romello “Mello” St. Claire is that character for me.

His book, They Call Me Mello, turned 4-years-old today. 

When I set out to work on Mello’s story, I was very much in my head. Never had I created a book mainly from a male point of view and for it to be a central point of view (one perspective) was intimidating. I had to create a short story from his perspective to prove I could carry an entire novel in his voice. And I believe I delivered.

If you’ve read Mello’s story and you’re curious if there’s another book in the works from him, as of today, there isn’t. But I have something planned and will tell you about it shortly.

So… Let’s Talk A Little About Gluttony

After months of outlining, researching, and maybe some procrastination, the creative process for Gluttony, book five in the Love is Cure, Vol. 1 – Vices & Virtues series has started.

To write a book about a sin that revolves around consumption, most notably consumption of food, has been an eye-opening experience. Though the story is thematic, it’s told in a relatable way with a storyline that’s interesting given the subject matter.

What 7-years of self-publishing taught me

This past Sunday I celebrated 7-years as a self-published author. The journey to here has been a learning experience from the very moment I published my first story. I started this thing knowing nothing and today I can say I know plenty. And even with that, though, there is still so much more I need to learn. But you don’t get through 7-years of self-publishing stories and not learn anything. 

Here are a few things I learned in my 7-years of self-publishing (in no particular order).

#eBookSale: Meant to Be & Forbidden: An Anthology Are On Sale for 24hrs!

They say as an author, every so often you should return to your books to re-read your work to see how far you’ve come. I don’t always re-read my books after they have published. That’s because I’m often working on something new and simply don’t have the time. 

I’m currently working on Book Five in my Love is Cure, Vol. 1. – Vices & Virtues series, Gluttony, and I’ve had to return to my previously published books to stay aligned with storylines and timelines. One of those books has been Meant to Be– a story that continues a short story in Forbidden: An Anthology. 

Re-reading this story gave me all the feels. The characters August and Genesis are that amazing as a pair and the story premise, chile, is one you can’t look away from.

Are You Attending Indie Love This Summer?

We are almost a month away from Indie Love – a book event scheduled to take place this summer in New Orleans. So many firsts for me with this. Indie Love will be my very first book event and I’ll be in NOLA for the very first time too. To say I’m excited is an understatement. I’m too ready to soak up all the good vibes and energy. I’m sure it’ll be a dope event.

To prepare, I’ve created a preorder page for attendees who are interested in reserving books before their visit. All preordered books will be with me, ready for pick up at my designated table.

#Series: The Forbidden Series is Complete

I envisioned this very post when I made a commitment to continue every story in the Forbidden series. With the release of So This is Love last Friday, April 29thThe Forbidden series is now complete! I’ve continued each story from Forbidden: An Anthology and they all have something special about them. I love all these stories! Now, while Forbidden: An Anthology isn’t a romance, continued stories Mean to BeLoveless, and So This is Love are romances. Indecent Arrangement is the only trouble child in the series lol and is an incredible erotic suspense I think you’ll love and won’t be able to put down.

If you’ve yet to dive into this series, now is the time! Until July 27th, all books in the series are available in the KU library. After that, only the anthology will remain on KU.

#NewRelease: So This is Love is Available Now for Download

Today is the day! So This is Love, the final book in the Forbidden series and the last story continued from Forbidden: An Anthology, is available now for download. 

All the books in the Forbidden series are standalone and can be read in whatever order you choose. It isn’t necessary to read the three books (Indecent Arrangement, Meant to Be, and Loveless) before reading So This is Love because they aren’t connected. You can choose to read those books after So This is Love if So This is Love is the first book you are encountering in the series. If you are new to the series, however, I recommend you read Ayanna and Dallas’s short story, A Delectable No-No from Forbidden: An Anthology for context.

For now, So This is Love is available for digital download. Paperback copies will come soon.

See below for STIL’s synopsis and the link to download. And as always, enjoy!

P.S. please be sure to read the Message from the Author before you start reading and the Author’s Note once you are done reading. Important info is there.
