Blood Lust Cover and Blurb

Thanks to my very good friend and publisher RJ Parker, here is the link on this special release day for:

Blood Lust

Here is the cover and blurb we're using for release - coming very soon. 

Half human, half vampire, Jedidiah Israel Blake comes of age with his sire’s lust for blood. Wielding incredible power, Jed grows up next door with his childhood partner, Erin Constanza, sharing Jed’s monstrous secret of what his Mom thinks of as raising the ‘Dark Superman’. Jed and Erin, now a policewoman with the Sacramento Police Department, find out their lives have been catalogued by a secret government group formed to watch Jed’s growth into adulthood power. They want to harness Jed’s blood lust for their own purposes. He’s happy to oblige.
 

 

Blood Lust (Dhampir) Finished

I finished my new paranormal novel about a half human/half vampire from the short story I wrote titled 'Dhampir'. Because most people don't know what a Dhampir is, we're probably going to title it 'Blood Lust'. In any case, brother RJ Parker already has the manuscript draft for 'Blood Lust', and I'm editing it while writing my Hard Case/Cold Blooded crossover titled 'Red Waves'. Here's an initial blurb I wrote for 'Blood Lust'.

A vampire named Aaron, buried alive after the Battle of Gravelines near Calais, rips a path across Europe when unearthed, escaping to America. He seduces a young college coed, Jillian Mary Blake. Young Jillian gives birth to Jedidiah Israel Blake. Jedidiah, a half human/half vampire Dhampir wields incredible power. Jed’s childhood partner, Erin Constanza, grows up next door sharing Jed’s monstrous secret of what his Mom thinks of as raising the ‘Dark Superman’. Jed and Erin find out their lives have been catalogued by a secret government group formed to watch Jed’s growth into adulthood power. They want to harness Jed’s blood lust for their own purposes. He’s happy to oblige.

That's my update for now. We'll have the release date soon.

Dhampir Novel Progress

I am 60K words into my new paranormal novel Dhampir. It should be ready for release by February. Work will then begin on Hard Case VII: Red Waves with part of the novel a crossover event with Nick McCarty's crew from Cold Blooded. Dhampir's new characters, Jed and Erin, have a rather unique relationship between Dhampir and human. They grew up together.  :)
