New Release Day: The Mythmakers!


Get your spacesuits ready and your warp drives in gear. The day's finally here! THE MYTHMAKERS, my sci-fi romance, is out now at Samhain Publishing.

And there's plenty going on to celebrate, including TWO contests. Bitten By Books has featured my article 'SCI-FI ROMANCE: A MALE AUTHOR'S VIEW' on two of their blogs, one for romance, one for SFF. You can find them here and here, along with the chance to win an ebook copy of The Mythmakers!

The lovely and talented romance author Tabitha Shay has invited me as guest author today at her blog: My topic there is a fun one: '10 SCI-FI MOVIE LOVE STORIES TO CHERISH', where I give a rundown of my favourite Tv & movie romances, sci-fi style. For another chance to win The Mythmakers ebook, just leave a comment after the piece (contest for today only!).

Hope you enjoy! Here's a brief intro to The Mythmakers...


BLURB:

The last will and testament of a forgotten Earth…

For Captain Steffi Savannah and her crew of deep space smugglers, life has become little more than a dogged exercise in mere survival. Their latest disastrous heist ended with another dead crew member—and no place left to hide. She’s even finding it hard to dredge up any excitement over the giant, crippled ship that appears on their radar, even though it’s the salvage opportunity of a lifetime.

They find that it’s no ordinary alien vessel. It’s a ship of dreams, populated with the last remnants of Earth’s mythical creatures. Including the blond, built, mysterious Arne, one of a race blessed with extraordinary beauty—and few inhibitions. Though he won’t tell her exactly what he is, in his arms Steffi rediscovers something she thought she’d never feel again. Wonder, love…and hope.

It isn’t long, though, before the Royal guard tracks them down, and Steffi and her crew are faced with a terrible decision. Cut and run. Or risk everything to tow the Albatross and her precious cargo to safety.

Warning: Contains moderate sexual activity, strong language, and high-cholesterol breakfasts. Also features hot nudists, naïve men and other equally rare fantasy creatures.
