Yin Yang novellas
DRAGON RISING (novella, The Hidden) Clues left by her missing father lead Lyra to a gorgeous, mysterious Caido, a descendent of fallen angels. When she discovers that his brother is also missing, she's determined not to let the exasperating man shut her out.
The last thing Archer needs is an emotional Dragon at his side, especially one whose heat reaches beyond the icy walls he, and all Caidos, erect for good reason. Working together? Smart. Falling in love? Foolish � and inescapable.

DRAGON RISING completes the yin/yang novella duo that started with DRAGON MINE. I liked the idea and the challenge of coming up with stories that stood alone, yet connected as well. I started with twin brother/sister duo Kirin and Lyra, Dragon shifters who have one problem: finding their missing father. But I wanted them each to take their own direction, and find their own romance in the process. I admit it was a bit of a risk, because I wondered if readers would dislike not knowing the answer to all the story questions by the end of the first novella. It was also a challenge, because I had to wrap up their romance fully, solve at least one plot thread, while still leaving something for Lyra to figure out in her story. The intention was that both stories would be published close together so readers would get their answers quickly.
Unfortunately, as happens in the publishing world, the novellas actually got moved two months farther apart. And for a while, DRAGON RISING wasn’t listed anywhere, so readers thought they would have to wait until the first full book of the Hidden, out in December, to find out the resolution of the story. But I’m excited to announce that they will find out on October 1st. Lyra will end up solving the final mystery of her father’s disappearance, along with a few threads started in the first novella. Everything will be wrapped up, except for one small thread that will lead to the arc in the three back-to-back books beginning with DRAGON AWAKENED. And having read these novellas, you will have that bit of insider “ahah� when you read ANGEL SEDUCED.
Did I make myself crazy with these interconnected plots? Yes. Yes, I did. But rest assured, dear reader, that each of the three books coming out this winter all stand alone. Because you’ve read this blog, you’ll know that they do share a overreaching arc. The only crazy-making going on was me in the background with my charts and timelines having to make it all work out.
