Hero of a Highland Wolf is OUT!

I loved all the glass buildings in Charlotte while I was at Authors After Dark, which is why I missed my posting last week. I couldn't post on blogger or Wordpress. I kept thinking what an industry the window cleaning business would have there. Now, if they had men in kilts, that they actually have in Scotland, who window wash, even better!

Speaking of Scots, or in my case, medieval Highlanders, my Taming the Wild Highlander won the Bookie Award for Best Historical Novel of the Year at Authors After Dark!!!

Book 4, The Highlanders Series

Angus MacNeill’s story, 4th Book in The Highlanders Medieval romance series

Edana Chattan senses concerns where people she knows could be in danger. When her brothers warn her they’re in trouble, she can’t convince her father to listen to her, so with an escort, she tries to locate them. Separated from her escort during a storm, she is discovered by Angus MacNeill, who is tasked to return her right home.Only Edana has other notions–and convinces him and his companions to allow her to use her abilities to locate her brothers who are manacled in a dungeon somewhere. That leads to a faux marriage and more dungeons and more trouble than Angus had ever thought possible. So why is the bewitching, fiery-haired lass making him think of marrying her for real?

Woohoo, 5 Wine Glasses and I’m ready to drink every one of them!!!
“Her Highland wolves tales are incredible, rousing, entertaining adventures and can be counted on to leave my face sore from smiling. If you are craving a really good paranormal read with SEXY kilted Highland wolves, smokin’ hot chemistry, nonstop action, thrilling suspense, danger, surprising twists and beautiful Scottish settings, look no further than HERO OF A HIGHLAND WOLF!” http://www.readingbetweenthewinesbookclub.com/2014/08/bookreview-hero-of-highland-wolf-by.html
Yes!!!
“Very fun, full of humor, romance, and wonderful characters. You are swept off your feet as if on your own highland adventure. Loved Grant, he is obstinate and knows there is something with Colleen but as any good man who doesn’t want to fall, he crashes and I relished in it. Fantastic read.” 5 Stars https://musingsfromanaddictedreader.wordpress.com/2014/08/08/hero-of-a-highland-wolf-by-terry-spear-book-review-and-giveaway/

http://www.books-n-kisses.com/2014/08/kelly-kimberly-review-hero-of-a-highland-wolf-by-terry-spears/ “I enjoy the humor that Spear adds to her paranormal romance. If you are a fan of shape shifters then you will really enjoy this book. You do not need to have read the series to read this book even though you will certainly want to go back and read them all.” 4.5 Hearts
I love this review from a “Cat” who loves the wolves. Now that’s saying a lot. Thanks to Cat!
“This was such a fun book! I really enjoyed it. I loved the banter between Grant, an alpha Highlander wolf, and Colleen, an alpha, American she-wolf. It was so much fun to watch them try to one-up the other in order to have control. However, when they finally submitted to their feelings, there was nothing sweeter! There was playful fun, suspense and danger, love and some steamy scenes too! Couldn’t ask for much more!” http://www.reviewsbycat.blogspot.com/2014/08/hero-of-highland-wolf-terry-spear.html

Okay, if you don’t know what the pluses and minuses of inheriting a castle are, just in case you inherit one, you know, this is a must read. And if you are quite sure you won’t inherit one, you might just read up on it in case a friend of yours inherits and you get to visit….often. http://tometender.blogspot.com/2014/08/guest-post-pluses-and-minuses-of.html

Once, I told my daughter that I should write darker, because that’s what was selling. She said, “Mom, you can’t write totally dark. You always have rainbows in your stories.” :) <3 span=""> Love her! The humor just creeps in. With my very first book, Heart of the Wolf, I loved that two reviews mentioned my humor.  Humor is always so subjective, and so I never know if readers will see what I write as humorous or not. And I think as I’ve progressed with my writing, I’ve felt more freedom to write more humor that I was afraid would not fly with my publisher. One of my former critique partners was an English high school teacher and she was more of a slapstick kind of humor writer. But when she read mine, she said, “The humor just sneaks up behind you when you weren’t even looking.” I loved that too.

Another wonderful review!!! “A fun read, HERO OF A HIGHLAND WOLF, the fourteenth book in best-selling, award-winning author Terry Spear’s HEART OF THE WOLF series, is a witty, sexy paranormal romance that will have readers laughing out loud.” http://romancejunkiesreviews.com/artman/publish/paranormal/Hero_of_a_Highland_Wolf.shtml

From a really great site! I know, because I got 5 out of 5 fangs, and that HAS to be great, don’t you think????!!!  “This was a great mix between Wolf/ highlander book! I loved every min of it…I loved the writing in this book and the feel of the characters. Not only did you have a great story to read but because the author did such a amazing job telling the story you were able watch it come to life in my head! it was terrific read, and the hot sexy men in kits never hurt!!!” 5 out of 5 Fangs Paranormal Romance And Authors That Rock—–Hey, that’s me!!! http://pratr.wordpress.com/2014/08/05/giveaway-review-hero-of-a-highland-wolf-by-terry-spear/

Another fantastic review! I got all the links while I was in the airplane, and definitely something fun to come home to. This site really knows what they’re talking about, too!!! Can you tell I’M BACK…play evil music here. “[T]the backbone of this story is the relationship between the couple and their antics and interaction won me over! Sword fights, pirates and unusual flags! This was a genuinely amusing story.”http://www.justtalkingbooks.com/blog/marta-reviews-hero-of-a-highland-wolf-heart-of-the-wolf-14-by-terry-spear-released-852014

 Got home from the airport from my trip to AAD and they were missing my bag and several others. Argh.  And the AC wasn’t working. Can you think of anyone who would be involved in such mischief? The fae. I know, I know, no one believes that they have that much power, but….
It was 96 degrees and HOT outside, and 87 inside! It was cool in Charlotte and I miss that! Today it will be 104. Ugh.

I shipped off Buchanan Clan Bear, Armstrong Clan Bear, Poodle Skirt Bear, MacBear, and US Navy Bear! It looks like Christmas in my car with all the packages!!!

 

And I finished another bear, but I have to make another bear to complete the order.

I only have two more of these bears. It’s a mohair.

 And I have a big blue bear nearly done. Have to make the baby bear also next.

And now I’m off to get a million things done, priority, proof an audiobook this morning and approve it. Have another after that. And I have 14 more bears to make.

And a book to write! Another to finish up.

Etc, etc, etc. It’s going to be a GREAT day!!!  Mainly because my plants didn’t die while I was gone and my AC is now working!!!

Have a super great Saturday! With 104 degrees out, I'm staying in!

New Website! Hawk Fae Release! World of Fae Box Set Release! 99 Cent Sale--Taming the Wild Highlander!!!

It's only the 18th day of January and I have a couple of releases, a new website, and only 20,000 words to go on writing Jaguar Pride. So far, the year has been a success! :)

I'm booked solid this year with conferences and trips, so this will probably be the ONLY time I'm this caught up! So I'm over the moon at least for the first month in the year!

My first box set! Isn't it cool? Since the first two of my Highland books are with a publisher, I couldn't do this with my Highland series. And this is the next book series (a teen urban fantasy) that I have that's growing because of the interest in it. So since I had the sixth book ready for release, I figured I'd release the first five in a box set.

First 5 books in the World of Fae series:

The Dark Fae: Alicia has planned a vacation at South Padre Island with her girlfriend Cassie in forever. But just as they're enjoying a day on the beach, here comes a dark fae to spoil their holiday, except only she can see what he truly is. Alicia has no idea how upside down her world can turn with a chance meeting with one of the dark fae from the royal house of the Denkar.

The Deadly Fae: Lady Sessily is a dark fae, an assassin, and she intends to retire and take up some other occupation so she can have a normal life. Get a boyfriend. Visit the human world to hassle humans like many of her kind do. Attend fae kingdom parties, not as the mystery woman who is scoping out her next intended victim, but just to have fun. Until tall, dark, handsome, and deadly interrupts her plans.

The Winged Fae: Serena, a royal member of the Mabara winged fae, has one goal in mind. Stop an impending marriage with a dark fae. As the fae are known to do, she stirs up trouble that she hopes will make her point and get her off the hook. Only nothing goes as she plans.

The Ancient Fae: Princess Ritasia misses the adventure of getting her brother and cousins out of trouble, but when the hawk fae king arrives to court her, she becomes involved in trouble nothing like she's ever faced before.

Dragon Fae: Seeking to save Cassie from the dark fae, Princess Alicia runs into trouble in the form of dangerous fae seers. A dragon fae, who is different from all the rest, is sent to locate and rescue her. Simple mission. All Ena has to do is find the princess and return her home. Except nothing is simple in the world of the fae. Not when two fae kingdoms are involved. And humans. And fae seers. And all the trouble that can cause.

Amazon
Barnes and Noble


This is book 6 in the popular urban fantasy series where the fae world and ours is separate. But you know how you run into a wall when you know you have plenty of room to clear it, or you can't find something you just know you could have put in one of three different places, and it's not in any one of them, or your skin prickles with unease for no apparent reason--well, blame it on the fae. They pop in to play games on us humans. So next time you spill something, it really wasn't your fault. Just take it as a good natured--or not--fae having a bit of fun at your expense. And the day WILL get better. If the fae move along. Just be glad that you're not a fae seer--someone who can see them when they're not visible to the rest of  us. If you can see the fae, that's a whole other story! And so the series continues!

Sometimes doing a good deed can prove to be a disaster, Ena, dragon shifter fae, discovers as she must flee her home. But her staff chooses to go with her and deal with the dangers to reach the safety of the hawk fae kingdom, if the king there welcomes them. The human, Brett, promises to help her escape the marriage to the despicable dragon fae prince, rather than return home to his Earth world. And now all the dragon shifter fae are at risk of having to face the dragon fae king's wrath.

Esmeralda, the hawk fae king's sister has been imprisoned by the griffin on their island for half of her life and she finally makes her escape, only she gets herself into even more trouble.

Against her wishes, Ena must forsake Brett on the journey, and he finds his world is turned upside down once again and now he has to survive the life or death trials of the phantom fae kingdom.

Demon Trouble, Too just came out on audiobook:

Demon Trouble, Too's audiobook also just released. The narrator who was working the first one was having technical difficulty. *sigh* So two is out before one.

Alana Fainot is a demon gate guardian, stuck in her last boring year of school. But not for long. Hunter and the rest of the gang show up when her astral form can't return to her physical form, and she's at the police station trying to talk her way out of having seen the murderer of a summoner. Hunter always knew Alana was trouble, but his kind of trouble, and he's not leaving Alana alone again.

Celeste Sweetwater, a new kind of demon, joins Hunter and Alana and the rest of the demon guardians in a fight to find a new kind of portal device that can summon several demons at once. But not only that, another Matusa has been unleashed on the unsuspecting human world and the demon guardians must stop him before he wreaks much more havoc.
But this time, the police are involved, paranormal investigators pounce on the area, and the whole mess seems to be spiraling out of the demon guardians' control.

I just received some review copies, so if anyone wants to listen to a teen urban fantasy and has never used one of audible's free credits, let me know and I can give you a copy. These are not on CD. :) I have a ton of audiobooks available, actually.  Just click on the link and tell me which you would like to listen to: Terry Spear's audiobooks I've run out of copies for some of the titles, but most still have review copies!

Okay, you probably didn't know this, but I had the UGLIEST website and no matter how much I tried to "fix" it and make it look better, the templates I had wouldn't work on it. So, in going with my theme and after learning how to use a WordPress with blogging for sometime, I wondered if I could make a cool new website.

It's still a work in progress, but I could work on it forever and a day and still not be "finished." And so I went ahead and published it. It isn't the best one out there, but I LOVE it. And now I'm  not embarrassed to show it off. The problem is that with new releases, I have tons more visitors to the website, and I knew I just had to do something!!! And quick. Silence of the Wolf will be out March 4! :)

The best thing is that I can continue to update it when I need to and have the time. And yes, I did get 3,000 words in yesterday on Jaguar Pride, my goal, because I missed a 1,000 the other day. Sooo, that means I  have 60,000 done, 20,000 to go!!!! Yes!

I have Hawk Fae print version to proof, but I'm going to work on Jaguar Pride also. There's something about seeing "what's left" on the word count getting down into the teens that really makes me feel I can do this! :) It wasn't that long ago that I was excited about getting the first 1,000 words on "paper."

So today is my show and tell, and still lots of work to be done, but what do you think? Even if you don't think it's the greatest  in the world, you should have seen the other one! It has a nice wolfish theme like my blogs.

Oh, and I wanted to say that I have wanted to do this in FOREVER. But I couldn't find any way to make a better website, though I drooled over so many other authors' beautiful sites. Do you ever do that? Want something better than something that needs to be horribly updated, and has needed it for way too long?

My carpeting comes to mind. But then Sir Rilo knighted it with doggy well...ahem on their last visit and my daughter said to keep the old carpeting a while longer. LOL  Too much information? Puppies. *sigh*

LOL!

Off to write! Hope you have a lovely Saturday!
