Celebrating Royalty
Thank you to Nomi’s Paranormal Palace for inviting me to be
here today! I love to visit with royalty. J That’s
probably why my current Shadowed Love trilogy is all about the Shadow Shifter
King. Well, the first book is about King Vale and the forbidden relationship
with his Senior Healer, Jessa.
The second book is about Caleb, a Warrior from another realm,
and a female Warrior from the shadow kingdom named Tabitha. Then the last book
is about Princess Arianna, Vale’s younger sister. So while each story has its
own hero and heroine, the trilogy revolves around a kingdom in turmoil.
I write romances first and foremost. The first series I wrote
that sold happens to be set in the Realm of Shadows, an alternate dimension.
The Shadow Shifters came from the Mortal realm in 657. They’re grounded in our
ways and the vibe is very Old World. I’ve always been a fan of posh and
circumstance. And scandal!
The Shadow Shifters use the shadows of their Ancestor gods to
shift at high speeds. The series has a definite paranormal feel, and I think if
you enjoy paranormal romances, this would probably be a good fit. At least, I
hope so.
Vale is new to the throne and struggling to unite his kingdom
after the death of his brother. Jessa is struggling with a scandalous
reputation she doesn’t deserve and her compulsion to save at the risk to
herself. Their relationship is more than frowned upon, but somehow their love
is what will save the kingdom from invaders intent on destroying their peace.
I’m a huge romance fan, and I also love the strangeness of our
world. My favorite thing is embracing characteristics that make my characters
unique. In my opinion, everyone is a little weird, and I think that’s awesome
and what sets us all apart.
If you’re a fantasy romance or paranormal fan, I hope you’ll
take a risk on the shadows. To me, there’s nothing better than a little
paranormal fun. What do you think?
Thank you Kinley for writing a great post and
for visiting Nomi’s Paranormal Palace today. I love Paranormal fun, it is my
favourite genre. I am looking forward to reading these books myself……Check them

BLURB:
Jessa
is one healing away from death. Under the thrall of her gift, the Court's
Senior Healer risks giving her life in exchange for her patient's.
Vale
is a rebel ruler. When his brother is killed, he's given the throne and the
decree from the Court to produce an heir or lose his family's hold on the
land--and his deceiving advisors aren't afraid to use murder as a weapon if
their directive to stay away from the Senior Healer goes unheeded.
But
Vale burns to possess Jessa. The heat between them leaves a wake of smoke, and
even the powerful forces above want to bind them in a union that lasts forever.
Vale taking another would be a betrayal neither could survive.
Their
enemies fear a child born of such a powerful Healer and Warrior, but the true
threat lies in the bond forged in shadows and fused in fire.
