After the Storm
comes the healing

​After the Storm is a series of novelettes that take place at relevant points in the immediate months after Eye of the Storm. They concentrate on the healing our characters need to go through after everything that happened. They stand on their own and do not need to be read in any order, nor do they need to be read to understand any of the other series set in this world - they are additional reads for fans. And for anyone who doesn't wish to read them, the healing simply takes place off-stage.

Blanket of Snow
​
(After the Storm, #1)

​Four months have passed since the night of the fatal storm, and "peace on earth" has never felt so good despite the pack's sorrow at the loss of family and dear friends; sorrow that cut deeply over Christmas, and during last week’s wedding.

Mated to three, and now married into the Gunvald lineage, Lydia has taken comfort and security in her she-wolf, the animal's strength and wisdom taking her deep into the still-uncharted territory of Lawrence's wooded home – now her wooded home.

But storms come in many guises, and as the January snow clouds gather overhead, Lydia's finally forced to confront the secret she's been keeping from everyone, including herself.

Twisted Roots
​
(AFTER THE STORM, #2)

Five months after the storm, Taylor is the most comfortable he's ever been in his skin. Despite the guilt that occasionally creeps up on him over Sarah's death, he counts his blessings every day, especially for the love and care he receives and shares with his three mates - his pack. No wolf is as 'wolf' as Taylor's become, and the most joyful day of his life is literally just around the corner.

But something's pressing against the edges of his memory - a scent; a voice - there was something he missed in the delirious state he was in when he was bitten almost a year and a half ago.

Why it's emerging now, he has no idea, but it won't leave him be. It's grasped him like a need for air and he finds himself following the promise of something near, yet intangible; a truth he senses; something 'his' he needs to find... 

Right back at the start.
Pre-orders will not be available for this title until approximately two weeks before publication.

Apart from the Blood Never Lies duet, which offers a needed bridge between old and new series, I had no intention at all of writing additional stories for Eye of the Storm, but the idea for Blanket of Snow came to me in a dream. I literally dreamt Lydia's need and woke up aching to write it, so here we are. More novelettes will follow in their own time over the next two years - I know Taylor and Ryan have similar needs I'll have to pen. Because of the nature in which Blanket of Snow came to me, I suspect the others will also come in dreams first, for me to then translate onto paper. If you choose to read these little treats, I hope you enjoy them.
