USA Today Bestselling Author Susan Stephens

OCTOBER is a magical time of year...

Carpets of leaves and technicolor trees in the Northern Hemisphere, while in the Southern Hemisphere Spring is bringing everything to life again. Wherever you are in the world, a good book completes the perfect picture.

My brand new book release this month is called CHRISTMAS WITCH. A fast, fun read—#3 in my hot and humorous HOT HEX series—this tale features werewolves and vampires and a really bad cat, I only hope you have half as much fun reading this story as I had writing it!

I'm very excited to announce the release in November of book #5 in my hot as hell BLOOD AND THUNDER series. CONOR features Irish hard man Conor Murphy and Karolina Karolides, the daughter of an infamous slaver.

Alternating between a glamorous embassy in London and the glorious Irish countryside, there's plenty of danger and passion with a sprinkling of ponies, and a huge dollop of forever love to put us in the mood for Christmas.

December brings some much needed heat to the Northern Hemisphere, and heat of a very different kind to everywhere else with my book release, FIRE WITCH. #4 in my HOT HEX series, this book's heroine Iona is a twenty-first century blacksmith who meets up with a Viking called Ragnar from an age when men were men and women fought at their side—so however different this couple might appear to be on the surface, if Ragnar wants a fight he's chosen the right woman!

Wishing you all the most wonderful month ahead with lots of fabulous books, good friends, and romance.
