Lake Pukaki - South Island, New Zealand

I shot this last year during my trip through the South Island of New Zealand. Wish I could have a cabin on the banks! So stunning there.

Night Shift (Hiya Bastien)

Snorting, Vera jerked her head at Kirby. "This is Bastien. Don't let him charm you - next thing you know, you'll be naked."

- from "Secrets at Midnight" (part of the NIGHT SHIFT anthology, out later this year)

~~~

Four masters of urban fantasy and paranormal romance plunge readers into the dangerous, captivating world unearthed beyond the dark...

New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh delivers a smoldering story with Secrets at Midnight, as the scent of Bastien Smith’s elusive lover ignites a possessiveness in him that’s as feral as it is ecstatic. And now that he’s found his mate, he’ll do anything to keep her.

In #1 New York Times bestselling author Ilona Andrews’ novella, Magic Steals, when people start going missing, shapeshifting tigress Dali Harimau and jaguar shifter Jim Shrapshire must uncover the truth about the mysterious creatures responsible.

From Milla Vane—a warrior princess must tame The Beast of Blackmoor to earn a place among her people. But she quickly discovers that the beast isn't a monster, but a barbarian warrior who intends to do some taming himself.

It’s seer Makenna Frazier's first day on the job at Supernatural Protection and Investigations, and her first assignment is more than she bargained for when bodyguard duty for a leprechaun prince’s bachelor party goes every which way but right in national bestselling author Lisa Shearin’s Lucky Charms.

ROCK ADDICTION

Out September 9th

New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh stuns with a sizzling contemporary romance…

A bad boy wrapped in a sexy, muscled, grown-up package might be worth a little risk…

Molly Webster has always followed the rules. After an ugly scandal tore apart her childhood and made her the focus of the media's harsh spotlight, she vowed to live an ordinary life. No fame. No impropriety. No pain. Then she meets Zachary Fox, a tattooed bad boy rocker with a voice like whiskey and sin, and a touch that could become an addiction.

A one-night stand with the hottest rock star on the planet, that's all it was meant to be…

Fox promises scorching heat and dangerous pleasure, coaxing Molly to extend their one-night stand into a one-month fling. After that, he'll be gone forever, his life never again intersecting with her own. Sex and sin and sensual indulgence, all with an expiration date. No ties, no regrets. Too late, Molly realizes it isn't only her body that's become addicted to Fox, but her heart… 

First excerpt to be posted August 26th!

Excerpts and the smoking hot cover to come!

I hope you're as excited about this release as I am. I know you'll have questions, so feel free to leave them on this thread and I'll do my best to answer them. (And please share the news - you can snag the quote graphic to share, too.)

REVIEW COPIES

If you're a blogger, you can sign up here to get a review copy and/or to participate in the cover reveal. If you have any problems, drop me an email (nalinisinghwrites@gmail.com), and I'll make sure you're added to the list.

Review copies are also available via NetGalley. Link to NetGalley listing.

If you review on Goodreads, or on retailer sites like Amazon and B&N, you can shoot your review request directly to me. Please include a link to your profile or reviews on the site(s). I appreciate every single request and will do my best to fulfill them, but whether we can send out copies to everyone will depend on the number of requests.

Edited to add: Goodreads page for Rock Addiction, if you'd like to add it to your shelves. :-)

p.s. If you're wondering when I managed to write ROCK ADDICTION, I did it on my "vacation". Then I kind of started work on another rock star story in my spare time. Because I am a book nerd who loves to write. For Psy-Changeling and Guild Hunter fans, this won't affect my release schedule for either series, so you can enjoy it guilt-free!
