Book release time!

Servant: The Acceptance is the 2nd book in my "supernatural urban fantasy thriller" series.
Yep, that's what they're calling it!

Tonight, Friday, August 29th, I'll be doing a short radio interview with COS radio. The live show begins live at 8:30 Eastern, and runs 15minutes. Anyone who wants to call in to talk to me on the show can do so by dialing 646-200-4071. The show is aired LIVE at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Circle-Of-Seven and an active chat session is online

I'll also be doing a local signing on Saturday, August 30 from 1:00 to 3:00PM at Waldenbooks, Western Hills, 6139 Glenway Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45211.

And last but not least, I signed on Wax Creative to have them redo my websites. They've already made great progress on my http://www.llfoster.com/ website, so check it out when you get a chance.
After Labor Day, we'll get started on the http://www.lorifoster.com/ site. I'm looking forward to it!

Servant: The Acceptance hit stands last Tuesday, so I figured I'd celebrate by sharing an excerpt, a book trailer, and a video interview.

EXCERPT

Chest to chest, thick anger undulating between them, he sought words that would somehow convey all he felt – the resentment and relief, the concern and...

So much more.

Apathetic to his mental struggle, Gaby looked at his mouth. “How’d you find me, anyway?” She licked her lips, slow and sweet. “I’ve been quiet. I’ve been good.”

Luther couldn’t dredge up a single word.

At his lack of response, her gaze crawled up to his, challenging him and scorching him at the same time. “You know, Luther, I figured on never seeing you again.”

That notion didn’t seem to distress her at all. Luther wondered if his teeth would turn to dust, given how he ground them together.

Eyes narrowed, Gabrielle tipped her head. “But here you are.” She sucked in a substantial breath, which pressed her body into his. Drawling the words, she said, “Big. Tall. Strong Luther. That golden orange glow around you shows great self control.”

God, she sounded the same, just as confusing and infuriating, as if nothing had happened, as if people hadn’t died and monsters hadn’t existed.

Her voice softened. “You’re holding back, Luther. But what? Anger?” Her attention returned to his mouth. “Or something else?”

Hoarse with an aberrant yearning, determined to maintain control of the situation, Luther pointed out, “You’ve been knocking around johns.” And thank God she had, because her abuse of the flesh-peddling clientele had enabled him to locate her again.

Quiet satisfaction chased away the last remnants of her odd transformation, showing him the Gaby he’d grown to know so well – or at least, as well as anyone could know an elusive enigma like her.

“Only when they deserved it, Luther.” She relaxed her shoulder blades against the wall, tilted out her hips to press into his groin. Uncaring of how he held her wrists so tightly, nonchalant to any threat he might pose, she said again, “Only when they deserved it.”

God almighty, would he ever figure out her many quirks and idiosyncrasies? Now that he had found her, would she find a way to slip away from him again?

Would she forever unbalance him with discrepant desire so foreign to his nature that he couldn’t deal with it, couldn’t decipher it or even name it?

“Why, Gaby?” He hadn’t meant to growl, to show his loss of discipline, but damn it, there were so many unknowns with her. A million of them.

Hopefully she caught all that the simple question encompassed.

All that he wanted from her.


I hope you enjoyed that small taste of "Luther vs Gaby." It's been a real tug of war with those two already, but yes, eventually they'll work it all out - I'm a romantic at heart!

Please check out the book trailer!

And here's a video interview was done at the RT convention. Remember, I was running back and forth between hotels, and sadly, I never sleep well at conventions, so... I was mega tired that day, and you can tell. I look ready to...

But I still very much appreciated the interviews. Overall I did 4 of them, the one I mentioned about concerning my L.L. Foster books, one for our special charity book, The Power of Love, one for my SBC fighters, and one on my "muse." Sweet, huh?
