Tonya Burrows The HORNET series is kind of in limbo right now. I'm working to get my rights back from the publisher, but I have only managed to get the first two books so far. I have to wait out the rest of the contracts before I can finish the series.
Tonya Burrows Hi, Keri. No, it's not available. I never ended up publishing it because there wasn't enough interest in the series. I moved on to writing Redwood Coast Rescue instead.
Tonya Burrows I wasn't planning on it, but recently came up with an idea, so he might at least get a novella.
Tonya Burrows You're welcome! I'm so glad to hear you love the series! Yes, Harvard is next and his book will kick off a spin-off series featuring the HORNET trainees. Marcus's and Ian's books will be the last two in the HORNET series, and Tuc's will likely be the first in a new spin-off featuring his guys.
Tonya Burrows Unfortunately, that contract fell through and my agent is re-submitting it to other publishers. *fingers crossed* it will be picked up again because I loved writing the first book, and I love the characters.
Tonya Burrows Code of Honor hasn't released yet. I don't have a date for it yet, but I'm guessing it will be sometime this summer.
Tonya Burrows Not yet, but I am working on a plan to release the next two books in the series in either 2018 or 2019, depending on my publishing schedule.
Tonya Burrows Right now, it's only available on Amazon, but I hope to make it available on other platforms within the next few months.
Tonya Burrows Yes! Each guy will get their own book. Up next is Jesse, followed by Jean-Luc. I haven't worked out the order for the rest of the team yet, but they will absolutely have their stories told!
Tonya Burrows Hi Aarati! I have Vaughn and Lark's book all plotted out and will be starting it as soon as I wrap up Wilde at Heart. It will probably release sometime next year. And as for what happened to Lark.... you'll just have to wait and see! ;)

I don't have a release date for Reece and Shelby's book yet.
Tonya Burrows I will be doing some kind of giveaway featuring Ian and Tank, but I haven't decided what that will be yet. I'll let you know!

As for Reece & Shelby, I don't have a date for their release yet. I'm really hoping it will be before the end of the year, but it all depends on how fast I can finish Broken Honor and get back to their story.
Tonya Burrows I know you have been waiting for a long time for another Wilde book and I apologize for that. The rest of the Wilde boys will be getting their books soon. I don't have a release date yet, but I promise you all will know when I have one!
Tonya Burrows This is a difficult one to answer. So many different things inspire me--for example, I recently saw a nice looking older guy on a motorcycle in the lane next to me at a red light. He had on a Marine Corps jacket and had this cool little sidecar built just for his dog. That man and his dog sparked the idea for a series I'm working on about wounded warriors and their service dogs.

I also get inspiration from TV shows, movies, other books...the list goes on and on.
Tonya Burrows My next HORNET book, Broken Honor, takes place in the world of human trafficking. I got the idea after watching a documentary about arms trafficking, which also mentioned something about the human sex trade and how bad of a problem it is in poor Eastern European countries like Moldova. It was all so fascinating and horrifying, I knew I had to write about it.
Tonya Burrows I'm writing the third Wilde Security book, Wilde at Heart. I'm also plotting the fourth Wilde book, which I've tentatively titled Running Wilde. In my HORNET series, I'm plotting a novella and rewriting Broken Honor. Plus, I'm working on plans for a brand new series!
Tonya Burrows Write. Write. Write. Keep writing even when you want to quit. If your first book is not selling, set it aside and start another, and then another, and another. NEVER. GIVE. UP.
Tonya Burrows All the things! I love that I can work at home in my PJs. I love getting lost in my own worlds for hours on end. I love going to conferences and interacting with other writers online. But most of all, I love hearing from readers that my book kept them awake all night! That's the absolute best.
Tonya Burrows I don't write linearly. If I'm struggling with the scene I'm on, I'll skip to the next. And, usually, by the time I finish it, I'll know how to handle the scene I was stuck on.
