News, releases, and reviews

We would like to congratulate Shannon Leigh, Rob Seyk, and Kelly Madden for their new reviews and Stephanie Sullivan and Jennifer Hart for their new releases.

You may have noticed some new changes around Wild Child and Freya's Bower. We moved both sites to a new server and moved things around. This is to facilitate your shopping experience. We are still loading some of the missing reviews and interviews, so be patient with us.

In other news, if you happen to pick up the October issue of Realms of Fantasy, check out page 32. Yeah, that's WCP. (grin) Doesn't it look beautiful!

Worth the Wait by Jennifer Hart

Marley Gunderson is a sucker for hard luck cases. She votes independent, hires the local pothead with potential to DJ her class reunion, and pines for the boy she couldn't save.

William Patterson isn't interested in Marley's pity but her soft heart. Sexy and standoffish, Will's path has turned a carefree boy into a deeply troubled man with a serious helping of tragedy in his rucksack. The last thing he wants is to drag Marley into his personal cesspool, but the spark of teenage lust he felt for her blossoms into a raging inferno. Even the snarky voice of his dead friend, who resides in Will's own mind, isn't much of a deterrent for a few nights of solace spent in Marley's arms. But can he walk away again for her sake?

Erik Sanders doesn't need to be a rocket scientist to know that Victoria is trouble. The physicist has the mind of a computer and the body of a centerfold model—too bad she's also the prime suspect in his industrial espionage case. Working undercover as a plumber will get him the evidence he needs to close this case.

Once he realizes his sexy suspect is an innocent pawn, he must protect her until the real criminals are brought to justice. And as her bodyguard, Erik finds himself guarding her body more closely than he should. Suddenly scientific principals like chemistry and forces of nature are taking on a whole new meaning.

Next month, I interview Debbie Mumford, author of Second Sight, Sorcha's Heart, Dragon's Choice, Glass Magic, and a story in Dreams & Desires, vol. 1.

Faeries come from all cultures and countries and range in appearance from lovely to terrifying to looking like an everyday person. Some are benign, some malevolent. Based on actual faerie lore, this anthology incorporates the work of five spectacular authors who have penned tales of irridescent ice beings, fey men who love you into forgetfulness, frightening creatures who wear caps of human skin, enchanted lovers from a long lost era, and the land of faerie dreams.

Step into the world of glamour where the beautiful, the dreamy, the vicious, and even a bit of the sexually bizarre will captivate you.
