This month is the first time I have ever had two releases in one month! Can you believe it?
I am celebrating the March 20th release of my e-novella Natural Evil (Samhain Publishing) by doing the same thing that I did on the release day of Oracle’s Moon.
I’m giving away 5 e-ARCs of Natural Evil on March 20th, and one of those 5 people will also receive a 15 minute phone visit with me (if they would like). This giveaway is international, and I am also willing for the phone call to be international, but only if you have the ability to Skype.
Comment here to enter this contest, and don’t forget to include your email address!! I’ll announce the five winners–and the phone call winner!– on March 20th at 12 noon, Mountain Time Zone Good luck, and happy reading!
Book Title: Natural Evil
Series Name: A Story of the Elder Races
Series Number: 2
Length: 30,000 (accurate word count to follow post edits)
Tagline:
Attempted Murder. Passion. Betrayal. It’s a dog-eat-dog world.
Blurb:
Claudia Hunter is on a road trip through the Nevada desert when she sees the body of a dog on the side of the highway. Pulling over to investigate, she quickly determines that the enormous animal is clinging to life. While working to save him with the help of the local vet, Claudia realizes there’s something about the creature that seems more. Other. Wyr. Which makes this case of animal cruelty attempted murder.
Too injured to shape shift, Luis Alvaraz is reluctant to tell Claudia what he knows about his attack, afraid it will only make her a target. But the sheriff is corrupt, and his attackers know Luis is alive and vulnerable. To make matters worse, a sandstorm is sweeping into town, and if they’re going to survive the night, Luis will have to place all his trust in Claudia.
Warning: Take a gorgeous man temporarily stuck in the dog house, add a strong, take-no-prisoners woman, mix in encroaching enemies and a raging sandstorm and stir to combine. Enjoy with a freshly opened can of whoop-ass.
Can’t wait to read it!

I’m looking forward to this short story. I am already on my second read through of Oracle’s Moon and I have read all of the other books in the series twice as well, whilst I was (not so) patiently waiting for Oracle’s Moon to arrive. I didn’t enter the give away for that one because I had already pre-ordered it but would be glad to win a copy of Natural Evil, it would save me some pennies. 🙂
My email address is smile3090(at)hotmail(dot)com.
P.S. I love that you check in on characters from previous books, it’s good to see that Pia and Dragos are doing alright, though poor Dragos seems to have a lot on his plate and if you are writing a book about Aryal perhaps even more so.
P.P.S. I really enjoyed your guest appearance over at http://www.overtheedgebkreviews.com/ thank you.
I would love to win a copy of Natural Evil. Oracle’s Moon was FANTASTIC!
Pick me, pick me!
Just finshed Oracle’s Moon and can’t wait till the next. The little visit with Pia was not enough.
Loved Khalil and Grace in Oracle’s Moon. Such great chemistry they have. Your Elder Races series is my favorite.
I’m already rereading Oracle’s Moon and can’t wait until the release of Natural Evil! My brother stole (borrowed) my pre-ordered copy of Oracle’s Moon the day that I received it and didn’t give it back until he finished it 2 days later. I was more than a little annoyed.
Looking forward to another great book. I want a copy too 🙂 virginia@thetreblechef.com
Have a great day
Oh that blurb has definitely whet my interest! I’m looking forward to this.
Sounds very interesting!

Hello again Thea, I’m reading Oracle’s Moon right now, your books make me want to read faster and slow down to cherish them at the same time.
I’m at 86% (yep kindle reader) and ready for the grand finale. {{{Thea}}}
Thank you!
Anna aka Unitynow8
what a great idea for a prize 🙂 your cover is delicious 😉 thanks for the chance
I love your books. I have a very low tolerance for bad writing and a very voracious appetite for good writing so it is hard for me to find books. I picked up Dragon Bound because I like Dragons and I figured I’d give it a try and was floored by how consistent your portrayal of the nonhuman races was with emphases on the nonhuman. I now own all of your books and will be preordering both Natural Evil and Lord’s Fall as soon as I get paid. Thank you for writing these.
Cannot wait…have all of your books…
sandy@thereadingcafe.com
I just love this series and am looking forward to each new installment. I think you are an incredible talent and would love to hear more from you as the series progresses. Thanks for the oppurtunity.
Would love to win a copy of the new enovella!

I am excited to hear that you will be releasing another Elder series book in the same month as Oracle’s Moon! I love the books and think it would be great to win.

I just finished Oracle’s Moon and made the mistake of reading the teaser for the next book. Now I’m dying to read that one. At least Natural Evil will tide me over!
Have only been able to get my hands on Dragon Bound and LOVED it!!! Even as I’m reading other books, I find Dragos and Pia stealing into my thoughts. I keep wondering what happens next!!
Where can I buy natural evil? Amazon hasen’t got it listed yet. kindle……….
Hi Jo Ann! Right now you can pre-order at the Samhain Publishing website (yay!) and take your pick of which ebook file you need for your reader. It will also be available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other internet venues very soon!
Just finished the fantastic Oracle’s Moon and can’t wait for this novella to come out! Thanks for the contest 🙂
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the series!!!! Each book is like heroine. I can’t stop reading it until its done, and the wait till the next just drives me nuts, but I just go back to the beginning and reread till the next!!! You have an amazing way with words and I loved the Oracle book especially, something about it, way to go!! Can’t wait for the next,
Please enter me in the contest.

Congrats on both releases! I love this series, and am so happy that there will be novellas from Samhain in between the print releases to satisfy my Elder Races jonesing.
Seriously, congratulations on two releases in one month. Elder Races releases are astonishing. So love you for this.. ((: Love you even more for your awesome books. Thank you SO much!
I must have read the ending of Oracle’s Moon at least a dozen times! When she finally can’t stand it anymore and Atefeh is healed/re-patterned/realigned. I love the Elder Races series & can’t wait for more!
I love your Elder Races series, but I can’t wait to read whatever else you’re going to give us! Go Team Dragos!!
I have all your books. I love them. I cant wait to read Natural Evil.
Picked up your first book, Dragon Bound, by accident and ended up loving the series… definitely looking forward to your next releases!!!
Sounds AND looks yummy/hawt!! Thx for the giveaway op! 😉

I am very excited for the release of “Natural Evil.” I first found out about Dragon Bound through Eloisa James’ “Reading Romance” column at bn.com (always a big hit for me), and I swear in between the day I picked it up and the day Storm’s Heart was released, I must have read Dragon Bound 4 or 5 times! It gives me such pleasure that the Elder Races series is continuing, and has novellas as well. ^_^
Loving the series and can’t wait for the next one!!!!!
