Sing, Goddess! is available now

I’m so excited to share that the anthology of Greek myth retellings that I edited, Sing, Goddess! is available now! Check out what early readers have said about the book:

“There are so many wonderful stories in this anthology!” – Goodreads reviewer

“Wildly creative and thoroughly entertaining, these retellings run the gamut from wistful and romantic to dark and gripping. If you love all things Greek or just crave exceptional storytelling, this anthology is for you!” – Amazon reviewer

“I LOVED these stories!! The retellings are amazing!! They aren’t the same old recycled retellings, which I love. I really hope some of these are going to be full novels because they really draw you in. I found some new authors that I can’t believe I hadn’t read before because of this anthology. I seriously can’t wait for everybody to read this. I’m excited!!” – Goodreads reviewer

My story is a YA contemporary romance that retells the myth of Ares and Aphrodite. Here’s a sneak peek at my story:

Alexandria “Lexi” Cypress is trying to enjoy her senior year and make sure her school has the best Homecoming ever. She may be the new girl at Mountainview High, but she is keeping busy with the cheerleading team, Homecoming Committee, and new friends. While she is the go-to girl for her fellow classmates’ romantic woes, she sees no romance in her own future as she’s been burned by love before. To her surprise, both Aidan Shields, captain of the Spartans’ football team and resident hottie (and supposed resident flirt), and a mystery admirer are soon vying for her attention. Can Lexi learn to open up her heart, and will she survive Homecoming?

Sing, Goddess! is available now in ebook for Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Apple Books, Google Play, and more! You can also get it in paperback now from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Book Depository and more. Or call your local indie to order a copy! Find the indie bookstore closest to you at IndieBound.

Cover Reveal for “Phoenix Descending”

Hello, lovelies!

Today I’m proud to be participating in the cover reveal for Dorothy Dreyer’s Phoenix Descending. This is the first book in her New Adult fantasy duology entitled Curse of the Phoenix. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the cover!

Since the outbreak of the phoenix fever in Drothidia, Tori Kagari has already lost one family member to the fatal disease. Now, with the fever threatening to wipe out her entire family, she must go against everything she believes in order to save them—even if that means making a deal with the enemy.

When Tori agrees to join forces with the unscrupulous Khadulians, she must take on a false identity in order to infiltrate the queendom of Avarell and fulfill her part of the bargain, all while under the watchful eye of the unforgiving Queen’s Guard. But time is running out, and every lie, theft, and abduction she is forced to carry out may not be enough to free her family from death.

A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro: Out Now!

I am so excited to announce that my newest book, A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro, is now available for purchase!

The paperback is an omnibus that includes the novella, The Taming of the Dudebro.

About the book:

“With the theater festival behind her and graduation around the corner, Grizz Sheridan figured she was done with Kurt Minola. She wants to focus on spending time with her friends and enjoying her last summer before she goes off to college. No such luck now that Kurt’s crushing on her best friend (and his twin brother’s girlfriend), Patricia. It seems like he’s glued to her side no matter where she goes—class, parties, even Prom. Grizz thinks her luck is changing when she begins working at Merry Mule Coffee Roasters and meets super hottie, Dimitri. That is, until a certain surfer boy starts working there, too—and suddenly seems to have turned his romantic interests elsewhere… Will Grizz survive the summer?”

Be sure to add this book to your TBR list! <3

 

Cover Reveal for “A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro”

Hello, everyone! Today we have yet another cover reveal, but this time it’s for my own book! I know you all have already seen the e-book cover for A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro, but here is the cover of the paperback bind-up of the first two “Dudebro” stories: The Taming of the Dudebro and A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro.

Title: The Taming of the Dudebro, volume 1

Author: Jane Watson

Release Date: April 18th, 2017

Publisher: Snowy Wings Publishing

Cover Designed by: Key of Heart Designs

“In The Taming of the Dudebro, Patricia’s dream is coming true: she is directing her own play, a one-act written by her best friend, Grizz, for the school’s annual Drama Festival. Everything seems to be perfect until her teacher assigns Kurt Minola, the biggest jerk in the school, to work on her play. Kurt is lazy, selfish and irresponsible. The only good thing about him is his attractive twin brother, Ben—but even he can’t seem to change Kurt’s attitude. Kurt’s presence turns Patricia’s dream into a nightmare… until Patricia and Grizz decide to take matters into their own hands, and subject this insufferable surfer-dude to some taming.

Then, in A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro, with the theater festival behind her and graduation around the corner, Grizz Sheridan figured she was done with Kurt Minola. She wants to focus on spending time with her friends and enjoying her last summer before she goes off to college. No such luck now that Kurt’s crushing on her best friend (and his twin brother’s girlfriend), Patricia. It seems like he’s glued to her side no matter where she goes—class, parties, even Prom.

Grizz thinks her luck is changing when she begins working at Merry Mule Coffee Roasters and meets super hottie, Dimitri. That is, until a certain surfer boy starts working there, too—and suddenly seems to have turned his romantic interests elsewhere…”


Isn’t it gorgeous? I am in love with the surfing theme, and Kona is on the cover! Who is Kona? Find out in A Midsummer Night’s Dudebro, coming out on April 18th from Snowy Wings Publishing!

Cover Reveal for Entangled Souls

Happy Saturday, everyone! Today on the blog I am revealing the cover of my friend Dorothy Dreyer’s upcoming new adult paranormal novella, “Entangled Souls.” The novella is part of Ednah Walters’ Runes Universe Kindle Worlds launch, releasing April 18th.

“Her whole life, Lexi has known that the voices she hears in her head—omens and harbingers of important things to come—are part of being a witch. But what she doesn’t know is that a soul has escaped its reaping while on her family’s property. When handsome stranger Caden shows up on his motorcycle to tour the vineyard she grew up on, she isn’t aware that he is a Valkyrie searching for the lost soul. All she knows is that the deep attraction she feels for him is undeniable.

When Caden finds out Lexi is a witch and asks her to help him track down the soul, Lexi must come to terms with the fact that Caden is immortal and decide if her feelings for a soul reaper are worth the risks.”
