USA Today Bestselling Author of Urban Fantasy Romance and Fantasy Romance
This weekend has been crazy. It’s nice to have something normal like Six Sunday to do today.
Strong hands gripped my arms and lifted me onto my feet. Suction stuck the bowl in place.
Or it did until someone slid a finger between the rim and my pants, tracing the ridge stitched down my rear. The scent of wet balsam filled my nose. I flinched when the bowl fell, shattering on my heels.
“It seems we have ourselves a voyeur,” Vaughn purred.

I got my finalized cover art for Eversworn yesterday. That’s always fun.
Let me see if I can get it attached…
I also have review ARCs ready to go to some lucky reviewers. Yay!
In other news, I’m writing the second Araneae Nation novel, A Feast of Souls. (Vaughn and Mana’s book.) Their story gave me a character I really wanted to expand on, but couldn’t cram his story within their book. He also doesn’t fit the series mold. So…for the first time in years, I will be attempting to write a novella. My editor signed off on the idea, so I’m looking forward to trying something new. It should be fun, and I’d like to see if I’ve grown enough to pull off a shorter piece.
So far so good. I’m liking this draft much more than the last. I’m up to around 26k.
Now if I can triple that, I’ll be in business. 😉
“You cling to your vows of chastity.” His eyes glittered. “Careful you don’t lose your grip.”
“My hold on my beliefs is secure.” Only he made me feel as if I was slipping.
“You don’t worry I could pry your fingers free of your morality?”

This looks interesting. Grand Central is kicking off a new digital line.
The snippet below came from their Facebook page.

This is for Eversworn. I’ve seen the cover art too. I hope I can share that soon as well. 😀
Steal the salt. Bind the grimoire. Escape the male.
When an exchange of stolen goods in the Feriana marketplace turns sour, Isabeau stumbles from the encounter bruised and laden with new orders to complete an even larger heist. With her child’s life at stake, there’s no room for error—or allies.
Armed with a lethal book of spells, she strikes a dangerous bargain with Roland Bernhard. Steal a shipment of salt from the Feriana colony, and she’ll have her freedom—and her daughter. It’s all she’s ever wanted. At least it was…until she runs into Dillon Preston.
Dillon is out of commission after a mine explosion, and itching for a distraction. He gets it when the female who saved his leg arrives at the colony with nothing but flimsy excuses and even flimsier attire. She’s after something, but is it him—or the salt?
Trapped in a desperate bid to gain true freedom, Isabeau is willing to sacrifice her life for her daughter’s, but Dillon has other plans. He wants a package deal, and he’s not willing to lose either female, even if it means the future king of Sere’s head will roll.
Warning: This title contains a heroine desperate to save her daughter and a hero determined to make them a family. It also includes wings, horns and other assorted appendages.
Hailey writes about questionable applications of otherwise perfectly good magic, the transformative power of love, the family you choose for yourself, and blowing stuff up. Not necessarily all at once. That could get messy.
