I just hit 50,000 followers here on ŷ������! I’m so excited! I’ve been on ŷ������ since February of 2013. I’ve met and interacted with so many amazing readers. I’ve been invited to meet the wonderful people at ŷ������ in San Francisco. I’ve met great people there. I’d like to give a special think you to Mimi Chan who has such enthusiasm and a true love of books, authors and readers.




First, let’s reflect a bit.





The year has just flown by. 2022 was a challenge.
I love that readers gave a chance and that the book did even better than I expected. Thank you! The fact that this book hit so many bestseller lists just blew me away.

was so fun to write. I appreciate reader following along in this very different direction for the series. Just wait until you read !
took us to our first non-Ferraro hero �� Eli! The arranged marriage trope is a favorite and this couple ended up such a power couple.

was the next in my romantic thriller series. I learned a valuable lesson with that book �� I am NOT a good card player. LOL

allowed me to take some new turns with this series. I got to go back to the Lycans, which I really enjoy.

And then was a surprise even to me! I thought I knew who I was going to write about and then two very new characters came out demanding their story be told first! LOL

2022 was special for a lot of reasons but for me I was extremely proud that this was my son, , first book release- . I really enjoyed doing some promo together. We did interviews and went to Hawaii for an event. So much fun!



Now let’s look into the crystal ball toward the future!
I’m hopeful that 2023 will be even better.




Brian has a new book coming out Feb. 21st called . I’m so excited for him! He is now a USA Today bestselling author and I hope readers will discover him. His series is so different! And if you'd like a signed and personalized copy of Harmony of Lies you can find it at !



My 2023 line up has new releases, re-releases with new covers and mass market releases!




is my first new release of the year. It will be out January 24th. This is Master’s book and it was a bit surprising for me as well.

brings us back to Team 3 in San Francisco. I’ve never written a novel quite like this one and I’m so curious as to what my readers will think. That book will be out May 2nd.

will be released Aug. 22nd. At least tentatively. When the release dates are this far out they are always subject to change. This book takes us to the New York Ferraros where Geno, the head of the family in New York, is our hero. Not to worry, you’ll still see some of our Chicago family.

is the next Dark/Carpathian novel, and it will be released, tentatively, Oct. 3rd. We’re still with the ancients. I’m about to start work on that book very soon.
I am hoping to attend some events this year but can’t really say which ones just yet.

For those of you who have been waiting for a new Carpathian Guide, we hope to that that up in 2023! If you've never seen the guide you can see it on my community. Sign up .

If you’re still reading this rather long blog, thank you.

To celebrate the milestone 50,000 followers here on ŷ������ I thought I’d do a giveaway here from my blog.
