Summer Titles!! NEW RELEASES

Hey ya'll,

I've been a busy bee. (look at me being all productive and shit). I have 3 new releases coming up and of course I'm waiting until the last minute to get my stuff together. Scheduling tweets, putting together newsletters, reaching out to book tour companies and writing this blog post takes time. Probably 'tis why I always wait until the last second and then run around like a crazy person trying to pull everything together.

This life tho, I wouldn't change it for the world.

Behold! My new lovelies!

Yet it seems there’s no fairy-tale ending for them, as Ahmad and Toni find out the hard way. Someone is out to destroy their relationship, along with Ahmad’s good name and Toni’s privacy. Once more Toni has good reason to distance herself from Ahmad, since he blames her for the whole mess.

Once A Thief, Always A Thief

The Undercity Chronicles of Babylonia Jones, P.I. (#3)

 

Urban Fantasy

Three Twenty-One, LLC

July 19, 2016

 

I’ve solved cases for the most powerful Vampire in the Undercity and for the Lycan Alpha, proving my worth as a PI. Despite being a half-breed and unclassed, work should be rolling in…
Yet it isn’t, and I don’t know why. And as if that’s not stressful enough, my mom starts acting so weird it makes me suspicious. Friends say she’s just starting to live a little—maybe even, ugh, found a boyfriend—but I’m not sure. So what’s a PI to do? Investigate, of course. I mean, come on, Momma’s taken care of me my whole life. Now it’s up to me to make sure she’s okay.
What I discover is so outrageous it leaves me reeling, but I don’t care if once a thief, always a thief, there are some things too precious to allow to be stolen. I’ll do whatever’s necessary to make things right, even walk away from everything I’ve achieved—and the Undercity itself.

In Danger's Embrace

Cimmerian Moon, Book 3

 

Young Adult

Three Twenty-One, LLC

June 7, 2016

 

In many ways, my life is complete, or as complete as it can be with aliens roaming Earth, killing and enslaving humans. Jason, my love, is by my side, and my friendship with Wade is back on track. Even better, it seems the threats of annihilation from the aliens have turned out to be nothing but hot air.

Yet, despite the peace of our Arrowwood refuge, there is still a war waging outside, something I’ve tried not to think too much about. Just as I’ve ignored the fact that a sanctuary can also be a prison, or a tomb, we are forced to step out of safety and live or die, in danger’s embrace.

The Undercity Chronicles of Babylonia Jones, P.I.

Hi All!

My super new urban fantasy is kicking off this month. Woot! I have many, many stories planned for this series, so many that I had to space them out. The words flow like water. The first 4 will be released in 2016. No worries, they are already written and ready to go.

I'm excited to introduce you to Babylonia Delilah Jones. She's a fierce, don't take no shit kinda woman. Before I'd written the first word in the first story I'd already come up with this...

I am a proud and sometimes wild woman. Meek and mild have never been words to describe me. Since I was younger I knew I was different. Even when I pretended to be normal and ordinary, different resonated within my bones.

The wind whispered past my ears, birds sang melodies just for me, flowers bloomed in my presence and animals told me secrets.

What I am exactly or even where I’ve come from is a mystery to me, but one thing I do know for certain is that I’ll never lead an ordinary life.

Why is that you ask? With a media hungry vampire as a best friend, an ex-boyfriend who is the prince of the Fae world and a demi god who thinks we’re “dating”, I can almost guarantee chaos is in my cards.

My name is Babylonia Delilah Jones and I am a private instigator for the paranormal world.

I love this character so much!

Writing these stories were such a blast and to be able to work with such a wonderful cover artist was the absolute best. Erik was able to take a rambling email and produce exactly what I'd envisioned. Shout out to Erik Reeves (http://facebook.com/Erikreevesart)!

The Guicai Talisman is up for pre-order now and will release March 21st.

What does a woman have to do to prove she belongs in the Undercity? Sure, I’m unclassed and only half paranormal, but that doesn’t mean I can’t solve cases. Since the established PI’s won’t acknowledge my right to a territory, I’m taking jobs from whoever will hire me, doing what I do best…proving myself to be a bad-ass problem solver. Which is how I find myself breaking into Zaid’s house, looking for a talisman my witch client says the very powerful vampire stole.

 

Now, I can make flowers grow, hear the wind’s whispers and talk to animals, but I don’t have the gift of seeing the future. If I did, I’d have known not to take this case. Because no matter the outcome, nothing good can come from messing with the Guicai Talisman, or it’s far too gorgeous guardian.

The Lycan Job: Releasing April 2016

Being hired by the Alpha of the Lycan pack to solve the mystery of his son’s death could make my name as a PI in the Undercity—if it doesn’t get me killed first. Not only am I looking for a perp who obviously won’t hesitate to commit murder, but even before I get working on the problem I’m being threatened. That’s not going to stop me though. Neither is interference from Zaid, the hot Vampire who keeps popping up at the most inopportune times.

Yet this turns out to be anything but a straightforward case. I’m learning more about the workings of the Undercity than ever before, and what I’m finding out is pretty ugly. It’s making me question everything I thought I knew about the Houses, and what I’m missing by not being claimed by my father. But that may well be a question I won’t get a chance to ponder, because even tapping into every ability I possess might not be enough to help me survive the Lycan Job.

Once A Thief, Always A Thief: Releasing August 2016

I’ve solved cases for the most powerful Vampire in the Undercity and for the Lycan Alpha, proving my worth as a PI. Despite being a half-breed and unclassed, work should be rolling in…

Yet it isn’t, and I don’t know why. And as if that’s not stressful enough, my mom starts acting so weird it makes me suspicious. Friends say she’s just starting to live a little—maybe even, ugh, found a boyfriend—but I’m not sure. So what’s a PI to do? Investigate, of course. I mean, come on, Momma’s taken care of me my whole life. Now it’s up to me to make sure she’s okay.
What I discover is so outrageous it leaves me reeling, but I don’t care if once a thief, always a thief, there are some things too precious to allow to be stolen. I’ll do whatever’s necessary to make things right, even walk away from everything I’ve achieved—and the Undercity itself.

 

It's Not Me, It's You: Releasing October 2016

 

Life is good. My mom is recovering and I wasn’t torn apart by the Lycans. Work is rolling in almost faster than I can handle, and I might even be about to find my dad. The cherry on top? I’ve met a man. One who gives me all the attention Demarcus never did and doesn’t make me nervous like Zaid does. Yeah, I know he’s human, so a relationship is out of the question, but I’m going to enjoy his company for as long as I can. It’s nice to have a normal, non-paranormal friend, especially when he’s as handsome as Easton.

When will I ever learn that just when thinks are going well, it’s time to expect crazy to rear its head? Nothing is turning out quite the way I expected, but through trying to keep my human IT guru out of Undercity business, dealing with a stalker and the aftermath of some of the best sex of my life, I come to one conclusion. It really isn’t me…

See? I told you. AWESOME COVERS.

The Bloody City ~ The Goddess Fish ~ #giveaway

The Bloody City

by Megan Morgan

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE: Urban Fantasy

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Name : Megan Morgan

A little about yourself (ie your education Family life etc ):

I live in Cleveland, Ohio—which is way too cold in winter for my tastes, but Chicago is my dream city and it’s just as cold, so I’m crazy in that respect. I have an adult son and an adult cat who still acts like a kitten. I’m a self-taught writer and I’ve never wanted to do anything with my life except write. Unfortunately, it doesn’t pay the bills yet, so I’m also a bartender and I’ve worked in bars and restaurants for nearly a decade. I write mostly urban fantasy and paranormal romance, but I also dabble in contemporary romance and erotica.

Tell us your latest news?

The second novel in my Siren Song urban fantasy series, The Bloody City, was just released on November 10^th. The third book in the series, The Burning City, will be released in July 2016. I’m also working on a fourth book. The first book in the series, The Wicked City, recently won best urban fantasy at The Romance Reviews Readers’ Choice Awards. I’m very happy with this series and how well it’s been received, especially since I’m a new author. I’m going to keep writing it until the characters stop talking to me.

When did you first consider yourself a writer?

I started writing as a teenager in high school—I used to write stories in notebooks and share them with my friends. I was terrible at it back then, but from the moment I started writing my first story, I knew it was what I wanted to do. Writing felt natural. I think I was born a writer and I was fortunate enough to figure it out early in life. I always loved working on essays and creative writing assignments when I was in elementary school, too.

What inspired you to write your first book?

I’m not sure if this means the first book I ever wrote (which I still remember and cringe at) or the first book I got published, but either way it’s hard to simplify it. Ideas for books come from many different places and it’s not just one idea that creates an entire book. Books are born from an idea, but many ideas pop up along the way to move the events in the story forward. I always loved Chicago and wanted to write a series set there, so that’s how I got started on this one.

Do you have a specific writing style?

I tend to have a ‘conversational’ style. People have told me reading my writing is like listening to someone talk. It’s kind of blunt and organic. I take it as a compliment. I want the reader to feel like I’m telling them a story, after all.

How did you come up with the title?

The first book in the series, The Wicked City, is a play on the term ‘The Windy City’ because it’s set in Chicago. The Bloody City follows suit in keeping with the series theme and also because there’s a lot of vampires in this book. Each book in the series will be called The ___ City.

How much of the book is realistic?

Many of the descriptions of Chicago are realistic, because I’ve been there many times—though I did make up a few places. I also tried to be ‘realistic’ in my depictions of how paranormal powers in this world are scientifically explained. A lot of the series revolves around how science treats paranormal people. I still use a good bit of magic and plain old fictional storytelling, but I tried to give it a realistic feel.

What book are you reading now?

I’m reading Stephen King’s The Dark Tower series. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to get around to it when he’s one of my favorite authors. I want to get them all read before the movies come out!

What are your current projects?

I’m working on the fourth book in the Siren Song series—even though I intended it to be a trilogy, it didn’t quite work out that way. I’m also an author for the City Nights series from Tirgearr Publishing, which is contemporary erotic romance.

Do you have any advice for other writers?

Don’t give up. I spent a lot of years believing I would never get to where I am today and doubting myself. I thought I would never be published, let alone have a series published. The only way to assure you’ll never get published is to give up completely. Keep learning, keep writing, and keep trying.

What TV shows/films do you enjoy watching?

I’m not a big fan of movies, but I watch a lot of TV shows. Here is a short list of TV shows I watch/have watched in the past: Vikings, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Penny Dreadful, Orange Is the New Black, True Blood, Hell On Wheels, Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Peaky Blinders, Luther, Supernatural, Magic City, Sherlock…the list goes on and on. As you can see, I don’t have any one genre I stick with!

BLURB:

On the run…

It’s been four months since the head of the Institute of Supernatural Research was murdered. But that doesn’t mean June Coffin is out of hiding yet. In a world where being different can get you killed, it’s best to keep a low profile. Especially for a Siren who can control other people with the call of her voice. That goes double if your powers might be inexplicably growing…

On the hunt…

But June isn’t the only one trying to clear her name. There’s Sam, the charismatic paranormal rights leader, and Micha, the first human on record to go paranormal. All of them must bargain with a mysterious vampire named Occam Reed if they want to stay alive.

Out of time…

As tensions increase between humans and paranormals, June must decide who to trust. If only she could hear the song inside her heart…

EXCERPT:

The whole thing was like attending one’s own funeral, only slightly less creepy.

Midway through the next speech, movement behind the stage caught June’s attention. A group of people were gathering back there. Her spirits lifted. Maybe the FBI was about to throw down.

“What’s going on back there?” Sam stood on his tiptoes.

“Probably more people who want to talk.” June sighed.

She skimmed the crowd, seeing if anyone looked as bored as she felt. A familiar face popped out for a split second, and she quickly looked back at the spot. She had to be imagining things.

She wasn’t.

Roughly thirty yards away in the tight-packed crowd, a man stood, staring at them. He wore a hoodie despite the heat, the hood pulled up and shielding his face. His eyes were bloodshot and watery.

“Sam.” She scrabbled at his hand. “Someone’s watching us.”

The man moved toward them. The speaker on stage had finished and other people were coming out. Sam was focused there, but he looked at June, and then around.

“Occam,” she whispered. “To the left.”

Occam pushed up next to them and stopped. His eyes were rimmed with red, his skin flushed.

“I know you’re in there,” he taunted.

“What the hell are you doing here?” Sam whispered.

Dread welled in June’s chest. The intensity of Occam’s gaze chilled her to the bone beneath the blazing sun.

The blazing sun. A vampire was out in broad daylight. He didn’t even have the benefit of shade, like at the clinic. Why?

“Get out of here,” Occam said. “Or you are going to die.”
