My slightly dumb but gorgeous Viking dragon shifter, Leo, is on the loose! Leo is hot AF and does not like Nazis. That is all you need to know.
But I’ll tell you more anyway, because I’m awesome like
that. When I wrote Leo, I had two versions of Chris Hemsworth in mind:
Hemsworth as Thor and Hemsworth as Kevin in the 2016 Ghostbusters remake. And because Leo himself has more than two
versions, this makes sense. (Boy, am I on a cryptic roll tonight.) Both are
totally adorable. He also has multiple Norse tattoos, which, as Leo and I
discovered together, can give people the wrong idea, because certain
deplorables have coopted the Norse gods for their own purposes over the years.
Leo is not down with that.
Rhea, the heroine, is also adorable, tattooed (and a tattoo
artist), with Riot Grrl (is that still a thing?) “mermaid” hair, and, as my editor commented, she is
salty AF. (I added the AF, but I know that’s what she meant.) Particularly to
Leo. But he kind of has it coming.
And all of this is just in time for the holidays, as the
Wild Hunt, which Leo leads, rides from the Day of the Dead (or rather the Norse
equivalent, Álfablót,
a sacrifice to the elves) through Yuletide. Leo just happens to lead his Hunt
through the Arizona desert among the snow-capped red rocks of Sedona, inspired
by Johnny Cash’s Ghostriders in the Sky.
So, to recap, Leo looks like Thor, can be not-so-bright on
occasion like Kevin, leads Odin’s Wild Hunt, has more than one personality, can
shift into a Norse dragon, punches Nazis, and wears a cowboy hat and boots with
a brown leather duster while riding through Sedona’s snowy nights. And Rhea has
the blood of Lilith in her veins (oh, did I not mention that?), can read
people’s fates in their tattoos, looks like a Riot Grrl (cuz I'm old), and is salty.
Oh, and for readers who like “Easter eggs” in their books (of
a sort):
Dressler means Turner in German.
And that reference is timely right now, but that’s all I
have to say about that, or I’ll just have a rage fit.
Never mind me; it’s been that kind of a year.

Hell Might Be Heavenly...for One of the Sisters in Sin
Lucien Smok is heir to the Smok fortune. He's also the crown
prince of Hell, a legacy he despises. Clairvoyant Theia Dawn tries to convince
herself that she's only interested in Lucien because of his family's role in
the persecution of her ancestor, not because he's the most beguiling man she's
ever met. The attraction that burns between them might be her downfall. Or it
might be his salvation.
Seducing the Dark Prince is available now for pre-order from the following retailers:

Once you mentioned Kevin from Ghostbusters, I couldn't stop thinking about Chris Hemsworth dancing. :) Love the new cover!
Gorgeous cover! Enjoyed your post!
Great post. Terrific cover. Now, I'm going to have to see the Ghostbusters remake.
If the book is half as lively and LOL as the post, I'm going to LOVE it!!
