in-a-holeYou might be currently shaking your head right now saying to yourself, “But… you have no idea what I am going through right now.” And you are absolutely correct about that, no one truly understands all of your extenuating circumstances, the intricacies, and details that might have already led to one big catastrophe.

Spending the day at a small indie bookstore never stops feeling special. Sitting inside Bookish in Fresno, I met a really cool fellow author @delilahsynnbooks and we each sold two books—our first sales of the day—to a couple of awesome readers! Start the series! The Serpent’s Bridge + The Serpent Woman are now in a special combo for $2.99. #BlackFriday is here—and so is the deal. Von Schlange is forced into a covert black-ops unit as their newest assassin — while Detective Nazario investigates a surge of ODs tied to a new tranq dope strain deadlier than fentanyl, and the dirty cops protecting the pipeline. Thrilled to share that The Serpent’s Bridge is finally available on Audible—brought to life by the incredibly talented narrator, Zara Eden @zaraedenreads. 🎧 She captured every beat of tension and brought the story to life. 14 months ago, I was unpublished. Today, thanks to a small press that believed in me, book 4 is on its way. He’s a decorated soldier. She’s the obsessed ex-wife—or so he says. A lot of people still think having an agent = instant success. Can’t believe it’s been a year since my debut novel The Serpent’s Bridge was published. In celebration of my book birthday month, it’s just $0.99 through Aug 27th.💀 Three books. One chilling series. Hey book-lover friends—something fun to share! 📚✨ My thriller Twilight of the Serpent is part of an epic giveaway hosted by Bargain Booksy. 20+ mystery & thriller authors teamed up—one lucky winner will get all our eBooks + a brand new Kindle. 😱📚 Happy Father’s Day to my incredible husband, Ryan Gray—you’re the one who quietly steals the laundry before I even ask, walks our senior dogs so I can sleep five more minutes, and takes the kids on little adventures—ice cream runs, library stops, park detours—so I can write, create, breathe. I just wanted to thank everyone who downloaded THE SERPENT WOMAN. It hit #1 in all categories via Amazon FREE store. It also made Book Raid's Best Seller in their Thriller category. If you downloaded my book, I couldn't have done without your help. I’M SCREAMING. I seriously cannot believe this. Depression and anxiety don’t always roar. Sometimes, they whisper. Doubt creeps in, even on good days. Not all victims are innocent. For fans of gritty thrillers and morally complex detectives... Today, our Ariabella turns 10. It’s here. Twilight of the Serpent is out today. 📚 Just 4 Days to Go!
