I am thrilled to announce that Lilith's Return, the sequel to Lilith, is now available for purchase at Barnes & Noble. The release is a bit earlier than expected, but for an indie publisher, it's next to impossible to control when distributors put the book out. It will soon be available at Amazon for Kindle and print, as well as Smashwords.
Here's a little excerpt to enjoy:
Lena
hugged Alex and wrinkled her nose at the rotten-egg sulfurous scent surrounding
her. Like most humans, her mother
wouldn’t notice the smell clinging to her body.
“Been getting up close and personal with the dying damned again, Mom?”
She
received a scowl for her half-hearted joke.
“Please don’t give your father something else to bitch at me about.”
Dad’s
thunderous look came back. “Oh, I
smelled that shit on you. Don’t think
for an instant you’re fooling me. You
know better than to let them close enough to touch you!”
Great,
he’d started cursing. Alex often voiced
the vocabulary of a sailor, but Colwyn usually kept his language clean. He really was pissed off if he used
profanity.
As the
older pair resumed glaring at one another, Lena walked around the desk to stick
a thumb drive into her father’s computer.
She eyed the bar behind the desk and considered pouring drinks for
everyone. Maybe it would sweeten the
atmosphere. Then again, it might make
things worse. Besides, Alex rarely
touched anything but sacramental wine these days.
Lena
sank into the leather swivel chair with a sigh.
Comfort and luxury was a hallmark of her father’s tastes and nowhere did
it show more evidently than the office of Lasham Funeral Home, the nicest place
to be laid out in Miami, Florida.
Gorgeous paintings of idyllic landscapes decorated the emerald and gold
wallpapered walls. The carpet was a
plush rich brown, the gleaming wood furniture substantial without appearing
ponderous. The picture window behind
Colwyn’s chair looked out over a small but perfectly tended garden area with
benches to sit on and a pond fed by a small burbling waterfall. Just the serenity of the room had calmed many
a grieving family. Colwyn’s demonic
talent of feeding on pain and relieving the sharpest of human suffering only
added to the peace so desperately needed by those left behind.
Colwyn’s
arms were crossed over his chest again as he skewered Alex with his stare. She stared back, one eyebrow lifted in challenge. The tension thickened by the second.
Lena
rolled her eyes. “Sorry to interrupt yet
another episode of ‘Don’t Go Demon Hunting Without Me, Dear’, but I have plans
for tonight and I want to get your approval on these shots.”
