The Best of Both Wolves
Someone made the comment to me that their squirrels won’t stay still for photos. They tear off. Not mine. They are super bold and either chitter at us to go away, wave their tails to try to chase us off, or do stare downs. Though sometimes the dogs are able to chase them off. But once they’re in a tree like this, they’re fearless.
I did it! I got my 2nd COVID shot, but I still have to wait 3 weeks before it’s fully effective. I’m glad it’s done. I was sweating out having it done when my daughter’s baby could come any day now, and I need to take care of “big” sister. I just have a little soreness in my arm, which is to be expected. It’s not as bad as the first time, actually, and otherwise, I feel fine. Thankfully. We’re up to 18.9% on vaccinations in Texas. Yay! Okay, so the day before yesterday, we had an increase of .4% for several days, and then yesterday, it was .5%. And today–which is really a day ago on all these figures–.7% increase. So we’re edging up on the number of daily vaccinations % of fully vaccinated folks and that’s great!! Especially since the new strains of the virus are really aggressive and I hope everyone can get their vaccinations before they come down with one of those strains.
I just got edits for Best of Both Wolves, I believe it’s the next red wolf book. They change my titles and some of them don’t make any sense to me and when I’m working on so many books, it’s hard to associate the new title to the book I wrote a year ago. Plus, it’s confusing to readers who have been waiting for the working title book for over a year and wonder what happened to it. I do love the cover!
I’ve been watching a true crime series–sometimes it gives me an idea of what to do for a book. Between that one and another one I saw, I do have an idea for a book.
I had a request for another vampire huntress book. I’ll try to get that one finished next year. But I also need to finish Angel Fae this year, You Had Me at Cougar, and I want to write another polar bear story. Primal Desire was my most recent vampire-huntress release.
And I have another order for a bear–a Celtic Clan–Crawford, so I have the bear made up, just need to make the sash and bonnet and embroider the paws. I put noses on 3 other bears last night, so two little brown ones are done, and one big one–my daughter’s. I’m just waiting on the birth date! lol Anyway, then I’m working on another large reddish brown one for another order. I need to embroider the paws of one of the little bears and the other is available to purchase. I just have the arms and body done of the other bear order.
I also picked up some more plants. I’ve decided I’m addicted to plants. I love flowers And I picked up a couple of herb plants and shrubs. I want a fuller garden–instead of a sparsely planted one with lots of weeds. My problem is that the three flowerbeds out front–everything grows so slowly, like the plants aren’t really that happy. The ones in the backyard on one side grow like crazy. And the same on the back on one side. But on the other side, some do, some don’t. It doesn’t get as much water there. And one area on the back fence is so crowded with volunteer plants, I have to keep cutting them down. But I want some of them, hoping they’ll grow tall enough that they’ll block my view of my neighbors and give me more privacy.
My Indian Hawthorns are finally showing new growth, but I’ve noticed other people have lost their oleanders and some other trees, not sure what they are, but they look really dead. I think my pine tree that I thought was dead might have some new growth at the tips of the branches. It’s so tall, that it’s hard to see the branches way up high. So I’m hoping it made it and it will be all right. It’s about 30 years old, according to how it only has branches at the top of the tree.
Well, I’m off to work on Billionaire. I tried to while I was waiting in the car line to get my shot–I arrived at 2 and it was 3:45 before I could leave–massive car drive-thru shots. And I did a few edits, but I couldn’t concentrate on much of anything because we had to keep driving up, stop, moving forward. I hate wasting time.
It’s warm and foggy out this morning!
Hope you all have a great weekend! I’m off to get started on mine–plant plants, seeds, work on Billionaire, bears, and edits on Best of Both Wolves. Hopefully I’ll start getting something finished!!

Cougar Christmas Calamity
So I’m doing the final touches of Cougar Christmas Calamity, hope to have the ebook out by the 20th. I have little one today, and then they want me to take her overnight tomorrow, so not sure how much I’ll get done.
We did go out and do some weeding yesterday and she helped me sort through files. Then she raced around the yard. It’s supposed to be warmer this afternoon so we’ll do the weeding out back this time.
Right now I’m working on getting my 3 vampire books into print also. I need to create the print covers for each of them also and for Cougar Christmas Calamity. So I hope to get all of this done this weekend. I did get 500 words done on Bite of the Vampire, a YA. It’s at 22,000 words and I do have a cover for it. I would like to finish it up! My YAs are shorter, so I’m shooting for 50K+ and so I’m nearly halfway done on it.
I need to write the synopsis for Silence of the Wolf novella. I was thinking about it last night. I think Max, of an earlier novella in Green Valley will be the hero and the heroine will come bounding into the story as a wolf. Have no idea why, what, etc. lol
Okay, off to get ready! Have a super lovely day!

SEAL Bjornolf Jorgenson and undercover operative Anna Johnson get off to a rocky start when they’re tasked to play newlyweds preparing for the holidays while investigating a SEAL’s murder at a Christmas tree farm.

The sexy little American brings out all of Cearnach’s big bag protective instincts. If she thought she was in trouble before, Elaine has no idea what kind of complications a hot Scot can cause…

SAVAGE HUNGER
by Terry Spear
Reviewer: Debra Taylor
Score: 5.00 / 5 – Reviewer Top Pick
This is an awesome new series from Terry Spear and a sizzling page turner. Terry Spear is wickedly talented when it comes to characterization. Her characters seem to take on a life of their own…. seeming to step right off the page. Or rather, to jump right out of my Kindle! LOL!!!
As with the wolves in her awesome “Heart of the Wolf” series, the Jaguar shifters take on the actual characteristics of the predators in the wild. Her vivid descriptions of the Amazon jungle pulled me right into the scene along with the characters. The chemistry between Connor & Kat was explosive and you get very sensual love scenes. I was hooked from the opening paragraph. The story kept me riveted throughout the entire book. This book is fast paced with nonstop action. Plus you get snappy & realistic dialogue between the three muskateers (Connor,Kat & Maya).
I am looking forward to reading about the extremely spunky Mayas’ search for her very own Jaguar mate. I recommend this book to any fan of the shifter genre. I enjoyed every minute of this story.
~~~~~
I hope you all love it, too! Right now, I’m off to work on Maya and the twins because she deserves to have fun also!!
Hope your Saturday is great! I overdid it in the heat yesterday and it wasn’t with any of these jaguar hunks either!
It’s amazing how he really blends into the ground, except for the eyes!
Time for some kitty cat loving!
And this is what one female jaguar shifters wears under their clothes!
Have a super wonderful Saturday!

Sold! A SEAL Wolf Christmas!
Not sure about the title, but Sourcebooks bought A SEAL Wolf Christmas!
It all began with To Tempt the Wolf and Hunter and his wolf pack!
You know how that began. Tessa finds a naked man on her beach. Hey, he’s a SEAL…wolf. What can you expect? Snowstorm coming. What’s a woman to do???
Then there’s A SEAL in Wolf’s Clothing.
And a return to Hunter’s pack, only this time with one of his SEAL team members, back at the Oregon coast, Finn Emerson intending to protect Hunter’s sister Meara.
Meara catches him before he covers himself with a towel, pretending to be her lover while she’s intending to find a mate. And it’s NOT going to be him. He’s such a devil of a wolfish SEAL hunk.
And now?
I got word last night, talk about TGIF!!! Anna and Bjornolf get their turn!
A SEAL Wolf Christmas (title probably to change)
Navy SEAL Bjornolf Jorgenson and undercover operative Anna Johnson have a rocky beginning at their first meeting all to do with pantyhose and tying her to a bed after some heavy-duty sparring, and him declaring she has mighty fine killer knees. Christmas is coming but thoughts of sugar plum fairies and kissing under the mistletoe isn’t something these two gray werewolves have in mind when they’re tasked to be the newlyweds preparing for Christmas while investigating a SEAL’s murder at a Christmas Tree farm.
Neither care about Christmas, sharing gifts, and all the traditions that go along with the season since neither enjoyed the holiday while growing up. But as they battle each other as to what makes for the perfect newly married couple’s first Christmas, they learn that a little Christmas cheer can become so much more, especially if they can take down a SEAL’s killer before they become his next target.
So get ready for more of Bjornolf. Yum. 🙂 And Anna and her give no quarter attitude!
Today, I’m also signing books at West Waco Library in Waco, Texas, conference room, from 1:30-4.
I’ll be giving out book marks also.
And I’m at Discover New Love http://www.discoveranewlove.com/store/heart-of-the-highland-wolf.html all month long!
Have a super great Saturday!!!
