 As of July 12th book five-- Holy Road-- will be available!

That said, I very much want to give a shout out for the new release of Josh Lanyon’s Snowball in Hell (coming out from ( Read more... )

RIFTER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, that was way too many exclamation points.

But I’m just so thrilled! After years of work, the one book that was both the most difficult and most rewarding for me to write is being released into the world!!!!
