Spotlight on Indie Romance: 2018 Round-up.
It has been a great year for reading. So many wonderful romances in all sub-genres produced by Indie authors. For the last post of 2018, my selected favorites.
First up, my personal favorite: Science Fiction Romance (SFR). SFR comes in many flavors; military, settlers, cyborgs, alien-heroes, alien-villians, even alien-shifters. Carol Van Natta‘s Central Galactic Concordance series falls mostly into the military trope, but adds in a bit of cyborg, and in Pet Trade: A Central Galactic Concordance Novella, some settler-romance and a wonderful menagerie of genetically engineered pets. An injured veterinarian and a cyborg with unusual pets must join forces to save their town. It’s a deadly adventure—with pets—in the fringes of space.

Romance that goes bump in the night
Featuring my Crescent City Arcana series and books by my fellow Otherworldly Romance Reads admins. 🙂 Thanks, E.G.!
One of the most wonderful aspects of the independent publishing revolution are books that don’t fit the traditional publishing mold. Enjoy reading paranormal, fantasy, and science fiction? Want it mixed with romance, suspense, action, plot twists, and steamy times? Once, such genre mashups were about as common as unicorns. Today, there are so many options, it can be hard to choose. In honor of Halloween and all things that go bump in the night, here is a trio of indie published urban fantasy and paranormal romance authored by my friends Marie Johnston, Rachel Chanticleer, and Veronica Del Rosa.
Another wonderful aspect of the indie revolution; free and cheap e-books. The one’s in this trio range from $0.0 to $3.99 (Less than a Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Latte).
Marie Johnston pens steamy paranormal romance with a wicked bite because as all paranormal lovers know, a good vampire story never…
