My next re-release with NineStar Press is a book called Kelpie Blue. It is available for pre-order right now at NSP, and comes out on December 28th. You can pre-order, check out the official summary, and read an excerpt HERE. Kelpie Blue is the first book in my Out of Underhill series, but it wasn't supposed to be. When I first started writing about Underhill and the chaotic overlap between the worlds of fae and human, I was working on a book titled If A Butterfly Don't Fly. Butterfly was supposed to be a stand alone novel, but after starting to dig into the story I came to a realization: there was too much content without full backstory! Basically, Butterfly was reading like a sequel. Luckily a happy kelpie came frolicking by at just the right time. Blue was a loveable, flesh-eating kelpie who just wanted a hug and to maybe take a large bite out of your shoulder. He also wanted his story, and he wanted it now. I couldn't say no. Kelpie Blue took a long time to write. I had to do a ton of research about horse racing and rearing. I had a massive chunk of plot written and was about to move onto the next section when I thankfully took a moment to look up horse gestation and had to quickly add a few months into the story. The Celtic magic and creatures were also really interesting. Blue's character and personality evolved a ton the more I learned, but I also changed a lot about Rin too. Fun Fact: Rin's name was originally Brin. My first editor said Brin and Blue sounded too similar, and they recommended I change one. Brin therefore became Rin. Kelpie Blue will be coming out in just two days, and you won't have to wait too long until If A Butterfly Don't Fly comes out in March! Don't forget to pre-order Kelpie Blue today at NSP, and it will be available at all major ebook and print retailers on December 28th.
