Imperfect Gifts

Pleasure times four… Genie is a traveling nurse doing a stint in Birmingham. She’s a shifter, but her animal is a tiny owl. She’s much safer in human form than in animal form, but she has the protection of the dominant motorcycle club in the city, and they help provide a safe place for her to shift and fly. Dev is an extinct snake shifter, his head half the size of a small sports car when he shifts into his largest size. He helps Brooke, Alabama’s diminutive Master Vampire, run her empire, and whether he does so with kindness or cruelty is entirely up to the subjects he’s responsible for. Elijah and Ezra are cougar shifters, born in cougar form. Their very existence breaks all the rules, so they were raised by the Concilio, but Brooke has agreed to take them on and try to humanize them, to add to her little island of misfits. What happens when these four shifters collide into unexpected circumstances?  Chaos. Imperfect Gifts is the fourth book in the Pleasure Times Four Christmas series, but all books can be read as a standalone, and the titles can be read in any order. My published works are priced based on length. Ebooks don’t give you the feel of how long a book is — it isn’t like picking a paperback up off the shelf. This graphic shows the word count, print-book length, and price for the four books in this series. Most estimates are that a one-hundred-thousand-word book will take eight to nine hours for the average reader to enjoy. Grab your copy of Imperfect Gifts at:      

UNHOLY MURDER

Lieutenant Veronica Woods is a tiger-shifter who’s been on a three-week whirlwind vacation with her vampire. How many history geeks get to be shown around Italy by an ancient Roman general? Josef is madly in love with his tigress. He’ll do anything to keep her safe, but the killer she’s after is someone that even Josef’s two thousand years of military and security experience can’t find. Meanwhile, bodies are piling up. Human, but without skin. Ronnie is a cop first, but when it’s a supernatural killer, she’ll have to work outside official channels to catch a murderer. .   I couldn’t be more excited about the first review. Seriously, it’s exactly what I was going for — warm fuzzies along with horrific crime that must be stopped.  Grab your copy at:

TikTok, and everything else

I finally took the plunge and joined TikTok. Now that I’m there, I don’t hate it. There’s an actual #booktok community, which is unexpected. I had this idea that people who are watching videos aren’t reading, but that apparently isn’t the case. I’m still figuring it out, but I have a decent amount of videos up — the dogs, the kids, the bird, some book stuff, and a couple of joke-type things. Here’s a little rundown of all the places you can find me online, including my new TikTok profile. Click the capitalized headers to go to the other sites. NEWSLETTER ➔ To keep up on all the latest news, promotions, exclusives, and events. CANDACE’S KINKSTERS READER GROUP ➔ Where I get to chat with readers. There are also, possibly, some naughty jokes and memes. AMAZON ➔ Did you know Amazon will automatically email you a link when I publish a new book? Click the yellow FOLLOW button under my author picture. PERSONAL FACEBOOK PROFILE – I post here about my crazy life. This is still where I’m most active online, and it’s the best place to message me. TIKTOK ➔ I’m still figuring it out. I’m not opposed to begging for follows and likes! INSTAGRAM ➔ I do better with words than pictures, but I try to remember to keep things current over here. MEWE ➔ Honestly, it’s turned out to be the place I go when FB puts me in jail. I need to work on that. BOOKBUB FOLLOW ➔ Want to have my sales sent directly to your inbox? Follow me here. GOODREADS ➔ Once upon a time, I was active in several groups, then the site was purchased and reconfigured, and the groups feature kind of fizzled. I still keep the books and series updated over […]

Cocky Queen

While talking to someone online, I made a flip joke about a peacock shifter who’s a drag queen, and made it clear I wasn’t likely to write the story. But my muse ran with it, and I was up until three in the morning typing my little hands off. For a couple of nights in a row. Plus typing every minute I wasn’t at the day job. My alarm clock goes off at six in the morning whether I’m working as a tech geek or a writer that day — children must be supervised (and refereed), and outfits and makeup must be scrutinized before they walk out the door. In other words, I didn’t get a whole lot of sleep. If you’ve read Bud’s story, you’ll remember Nickie questioning Sandy-aka-Jeni and Kate. If you haven’t read Bud’s story, that’s okay. The point is, as soon as I set my drag queen in Atlanta, Sandy jumped into the story and said, “He’s mine!” So, without further ado, I give you a cover reveal and blurb. Vic is a straight man who happens to be a bitchin’ drag queen. He’s also a peacock, which makes living in the city uncomfortable, but when his alter-ego Vickie gets a standing job as hostess of the stage for one of the premier drag shows in Atlanta, he moves into midtown — though thankfully he finds a condo adjoining Piedmont Park. Sandy works in the Atlanta RTMC’s B&B. She’s a working girl. She’s close to graduating from Georgia Tech and doesn’t owe a penny in student loans. However, she hasn’t had a relationship in years. She has her trusty cocker spaniel, Prince, and a three-point-five GPA. There isn’t time for a man in her life, but she won’t even attempt a relationship while she supports herself […]

Razor Pre-order Links are LIVE!

Razor moved from the Memphis RTMC chapter to Chattanooga to set up and manage a series of laundromats, because the local chapter needs more ways to legitimize their illegal income. He’s gay, but the Chattanooga chapter has accepted gay couples into their social circle, so he hopes they can accept him. Matty is about to graduate college, and he’s in the market for a Daddy. He walks into the RTMC bar with three of his girlfriends, and a huge hulk of a man rescues him from some rednecks. He recognizes the bouncer for the leather daddy he is, and sparks fly between them. Most of the MC is prepared to accept Razor as a gay brother, but they know they’ll have to figure things out as they happen once Razor is serious about someone. Will his ‘boy’ be an ol’lady? And can all the ol’lady rules really apply to a man? Razor is a raven, Matty is human. The RTMC fits into the local supernatural hierarchy in a myriad of ways, and Razor is already friends with Abbott and Spence. But a supernatural storm is about to blindside the club, and their personal ties to The Dragon King and Master Vampire won’t be enough to help. Warning: Male-male sexual practices are front and center in this book, not to mention it’s kinky as your grandmother’s old phone cord. Razor and Matty are heavy on the D/s, the S&M, and the B&D. Since some reviewers have been surprised by this in previous books, it seems necessary to also warn that sometimes bikers solve problems with their fists, and there’s lots of sexy fun in the clubhouse with women who hang around because they want to be there, and who can leave anytime they want.   Buy it at:       […]
