A HOT Sampler

I have a treat for you, dear readers!

HOTSampler_500x750

This military romance sampler contains the first three chapters of each of seven books in the Hostile Operations Team series. This is a chance for you to try Lynn Raye Harris’s work! This is not a complete book – it’s a SAMPLER of seven books in the HOT series.

“…one of those must read black ops series that is as good as Maya Banks & Cindy Gerard!” — Just Plain Sassy

“Seriously is there a hotter series out there in this genre? Because if there is, I don't know about it. I have loved these books from book 1 and they are only getting better and better not to mention hotter!!!” — Goodreads

Book 1: HOT PURSUIT
When a HOT operative returns home on leave, he doesn’t expect to find himself embroiled in a kidnapping and murder. But if he wants to save the one woman he can’t forget, he’ll do everything he can to catch a killer before he strikes again.

Book 2: HOT MESS
When Georgie Hayes’s student goes missing, she turns to the HOT operative she’s loved since she was a teenager to help her solve the riddle. Sam McKnight will do anything to protect Georgie — but he won’t let himself have her, no matter how much she wants him to take what she’s offering.

Book 3: HOT PACKAGE
When Olivia Reese discovers a conspiracy to sell faulty equipment to the Pentagon, she calls former lover Billy “The Kid” Blake to help her expose the traitors and stop the deal. But Billy’s never forgiven Olivia for leaving — and he’s never stopped wanting her either.

Book 4: DANGEROUSLY HOT
The world’s most wanted terrorist is back from the dead…and only one woman can stop him. Kev “Big Mac” MacDonald can’t forget that Lucky is his best friend’s widow and therefore off limits. But when he has to pretend to be her husband for this mission, his control will be tested to the max.

Book 5: HOT SHOT
HOT sniper Jack “Hawk” Hunter once rescued pop star Gina Domenico from an arms dealer. Four years later, Gina’s son has been kidnapped and she need’s Hawk’s help. When he learns that her son is also his son, he’ll move heaven and earth to get the child back.

Book 6: HOT REBEL
When a rogue sniper blows Nick “Brandy” Brandon’s mission all to hell, he doesn’t expect his fate will soon be entwined with hers. He has history with Victoria Royal, but she’s working for the enemy now. Nick needs to be ruthless if he’s going to stop her. Much easier said than done when faced with her sweet curves and even sweeter lips…

Book 7: HOT ICE
When Garrett “Iceman” Spencer is sent to guard a senator’s daughter from terrorists, he doesn’t expect the pampered princess to get under his skin. But Grace Campbell is far more than she seems…and Ice’s cold heart is melting all too fast for his liking.

2015 Appearances

Here's your chance to let me know where you'd like to see me in 2015! So far, I have the Romantic Times conference on my schedule, but I'm looking at other possibilities for coming to a city near you. Let me know about reader events near you and I'll see if it's something I can fit into my schedule. Where do you go to see your favorite authors? What kind of events do you like? Do you just want booksignings, or something more, such as meet-and-greets or reader weekends?

Happy 2015!

Happy New Year, dear readers! I hope these first days of 2015 find you happy and well. Just a quick post from me to let you know what's coming up.

First, on January 27th, HOT ICE will be available! This is Book 7 in the Hostile Operations Team series. Book 8 will follow sometime this spring. I have another series in the works, too. Well, truthfully, I have lots of things in the works. If you've been reading the HOT series, then you will know that Echo Squad played a part in the last book, HOT REBEL. They will very likely get their own books sometime this year!

I also have a contemporary romance series on the burner. These books are similar to my Harlequin novels, but they won't be from Harlequin. I may also do something shorter and quicker and publish it in parts. Yes, the dreaded serial — but I WILL let you know if something is a serial instead of complete in one volume.

And Colonel Mendez. Ah, the colonel. Everyone wants to know if he will get a story. He definitely will, but I don't know when. He's a hard man to pin down, quite honestly. He likes orchestrating everything and being in charge, so I don't know when he'll let down his guard enough to fall in love.

That's not a lot of news, but that's what I know at this very moment. Here's your chance to tell me what you want. More HOT guys? More billionaires like you find in my Harlequins? As always, to keep up with the news from me, sign up for my newsletter by clicking here.

Happy New Year!!

Fun with Friends

Hockey Game with Stephanie

Went to a Huntsville Havoc hockey game with friends last night. This is me and one half of the Alicia Hunter Pace writing team (Stephanie Jones). Our team didn't win, but we didn't lose embarrassingly (2 to 3). It was still fun, though. Popcorn, cheering, and laughter with some of my favorite people. What do you do on Saturday night for fun?

Fill your e-reader with these Free books on December 26th!
