I'm a big Bluey fan so "Gotta be done" or similar never makes me think it's a chore.

Nils from Read Indie Fantasy takes a wonderful spin through the first three books in my series! Take a read, and hopefully it'll entice you to pre-order the fourth!

Next stop on the digital book tour! Thanks to Aaron Cordy for having me on for another Author Talk! Go check out our in depth conversation about my work, which Aaron happens to enjoy quite a lot. Somewhere in there is also a mediocre Al Pacino impression by yours truly. (Link in comments)

The newest Virtue Shifters story, BEAR MY HEART is now available! Shy, responsible nurse Shanti wants nothing more than to get out of Virtue someday, and Alaskan-born rail worker and grizzly shifter Peter will stop at nothing to help her dreams come true! www.amazon.com/dp/B0GXL1V19...

The very cute cover to Murphy Lawless's BEAR MY HEART features a golden bear in silhouette against a deep green background. Hearts, sparkling diamonds, and a variety of Alaskan Native and railroad icons in pale greens and golds surround the title. There's a silhouetted image of a small town with a big gazebo to one side, and the series title, Virtue Shifters, is featured above the gazebo. Cover art and design by Indigo Chick Designs.
