BIO:

 

I am a native of Atlantic Canada, and I’ve been writing for what seems a lifetime. As my readers know, I also refuse to be confined to a single genre, preferring to explore in many. While my special favorites are always historical, I’m developing a fondness for contemporary tales, as well. Fantasy is also an element of just about every story, whether it’s the fantasy of romance itself, or an exciting new world to learn about and understand. So, it’s my hope that every reader will find something to enjoy in my books, and will want to stay with me through the journey and see just how far we can stretch our creative dreams. My first mass market title is a mainstream fantasy novel based on Greek Mythology. It’s called As Fate Decrees and will be available in trade paperback late in August!

The Devane Files: Books One and Two

Genre: Victorian era Erotic Romance/Mystery

 

If you have an interest in the infamous Jack The Ripper, you might just enjoy my mystery/romance series The Devane Files. Set in Victorian London, a few short years after the Ripper murders, this set of stories/books introduces you to the fictional Inspector Michael Devane. Devane is a complex hero, flawed, scarred emotionally, and suffering the tortures of opium addiction and clairvoyance.

 

In the first book, OUT OF HELL, Devane is called upon to investigate a gruesome murder in the Kensington district. When he meets the not-so-grieving widow, Michael senses a soul-mate worth living for, if he can prove she’s not the one who killed her husband.

 

Book Two is AN UNSPOKEN BETRAYAL, and once again, the roads of a current investigation into blackmail take Devane back to the streets of Whitechapel and the ghosts and memories of the infamous, unsolved Ripper murders. As he delves into the present case, things surface that make him wonder just who the Ripper was, and if he is indeed, still alive, and known to the police department that was meant to catch him and stop him?

Blurb of Feral Domination:
 
Gionne is alpha male of the Valde wolf pack. He wants Jenna, a feline shapeshifter, as his mate but the fates are manipulated to separate them before the two breeds can join.

Two years later, the felines need a favor and Gionne will help for a price — Jenna. Gionne holds Jenna as collateral for the debt. Holding an unmated female that comes into heat within the pack proves dangerous. He takes her innocence, claiming her as his mate to protect her.

Jenna gave her heart to Gionne only to have it broken. Now she must accept Gionne's terms in order to save her pack. Seeing the wolf stirs all the old feelings but Jenna refuses to submit to the alpha until he uses dominant persuasion. Just as Jenna begins to accept her feral mate, a pack member plots to get rid of her.

A malevolent force that doesn't want to see a merger between the two feral breeds works to separate them. Gionne introduces Jenna to the pleasures of a ménage in order to ensure her safety. Even with the help of another male, it proves difficult to keep Jenna safe from unreasonable prejudice.

L.A. Day delivers one of the most erotic stories that I have ever read in Feral Domination so I strongly urge you to read it!” Tara Renee of Two Lips Reviews

Colleen Love

I am one of those people who look through romance novels for the “Good Parts” or read a scrumptious fantasy or paranormal and discover no “Good Parts”! Sad. So, I decided to start writing my own! I think there is nothing better then a good fantasy story with a thick, sensual setting and love scenes to melt the mother board.

I  love words! I have been writing since grade school, and spinning stories in my head even longer. Since my youngest of days, people have always said I should be a writer. Always lost in some vivid fantasy world, head in the clouds, blissfully ignoring the mundane world.

I am from a small town in Northwestern Washington. I share my paradise with my husband of 18 years.  We homeschool our two young children and keep many pets and a large garden. When not writing, I also enjoy knitting, crocheting and many other crafts, cooking and keeping home and hearth. I draw much of my inspiration from nature around me, and always happy for the rainy, writing days!

 

I hope you enjoy peeking into my fantasies!

LOVE IMMORTAL

Theron Ambrose‑‑a Greek name meaning 'immortal hunter'‑‑is not your typical vampire.  Forget the crucifix and holy water, he's a modern day vampire!  His desire for an eternal, immortal life drives him to feed nightly from brokenhearted women since they are the easiest to take.  He makes the grieving ladies forget their troubles while stealing from them the very thing that keeps his life a perpetual one: Blood. 

 

For three centuries he has avoided falling in love since giving away his heart means giving up his immortality, but when he accidentally runs someone down with his car, he discovers it to be the very woman he had avoided all of these years.  His fantasy.  His dream come true.  His nemesis.  Feeling that it was his duty to help her heal, he takes her home with him, refusing to admit that he was oh, so curious and wanting to tempt fate just a bit.  Why did she haunt him so?  Soon, Theron discovers that an eternal life isn't nearly as satisfying as the thought of making Leah Nolan his.   

 

Reading Love Immortal was a fantastic, sensual roller coaster of a story! Kelly Wallace has taken her view of the vampire and put a couple of twists into it that made the chemistry between Leah and Theron even more intense. Seductive, pleasurable, well written and fast moving, Love Immortal is a wonderful read, with an unexpected finish.

Julie Simmons is an intriguing woman with a special gift and a traumatic past. The willowy psychic, once well known for working with the police department to solve high-profile homicide cases, may want to distance herself from law enforcement, but she’s long harbored a secret desire to get close to ex-cop Vincent Marcelli.

Vincent Marcelli, a private investigator who lives by his own rules, works his own hours, and takes orders from no one, has accepted his first kidnapping case. It was supposed to be an open and shut assignment, but every clue seems to lead to a dead end—until he asks Julie to help him, that is.

 

The moment Vince and Julie meet, sparks begin to fly. As they work side-by-side, in a race against time, the tension mounts and the heat rises. Julie soon finds herself living out her fantasy in the arms and bed of one gorgeous Vince Marcelli. With so much at stake, and danger lurking, will she be able to help the hardened detective solve the case and win his heart?
