Hi! Thanks for reaching out! Yes! Ecstasy Unbound was just released in audio a few weeks ago and the rest of the Guardians of the Realms series will be produced and released over the next year. The Mercenary Princess audiobook will be live on 8/24/23. I also have a new novella being released in ebook and audio at the end of September. You can find the estimated release months and some narrator information on my website: settajay.com. :)

(view spoiler)[Is a new Descended of Guardians book coming out this year? It's been about 4yrs since the last one. Also how could Nastia & Sander mate if he was an Phoenix & she wasn't. My last questions are about Brianne & Vane. Would their kids be Griffins that could mate with Geraki or Ailouros? Would they not get a mate if they were born Griffins? Would they have 2-3 beasts? Or could they kids be born either of the 3 beasts? (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Hi Mica! I wish I had better news, but release of the next Descended of Guardians book has been pushed out to 2022. I promise I haven’t given up on the series. The world building changes just haven’t been clear in my mind, so I’ve struggled to finish anything I’ve started in that new world. I feel like I’m way closer to answers now so I’m hoping the story flows like it should very soon. As far as your questions go… I love how thought out they are! So, here goes. The original Immortals, made by the Creators, didn’t have animal aspects. There were twelve original Immortals created representing nine races with different powers whose purpose was to care for and train each of the twelve Gods. Apollo’s experiments were what added the animal aspect. Nastia and Natasha were created using the blood of an original Kairos, sans animal, along with the blood of the Goddess Hera so they didn’t have an animal and could have mated any kind of Immortal. Now, as to your other questions… I can’t really answer them without giving too much away. I will say that Vane and Brianne’s children are definitely special. ;) Thanks so much for your patience with me and your enjoyment of the Guardian worlds! <3 (hide spoiler)]

Hi Mica! The next in the series is set for July. I'm still finishing part two of the contemporary, but I've started the initial background work on the next Descended of Guardians as well. Hubs and I did a bit more traveling and moving around than I'd originally anticipated and it moved things out. We're settled now and I'm hard at work to get the books completed. Thanks so much for your patience. xx

-I'm convinced the words "what if" have magical powers so use them often in your worldbuilding.
-Read. Read what inspires and entertains you. Read about writing and publishing.
-Maybe join a writer group.
-Keep writing.
Good luck on your journey!

Hi Yolanda! Thank you! I'm so happy you love the series and would like it in audio! <3 I eventually want to get all my titles narrated for audio. I definitely need to work on researching it some more, it's on my list to check out by the end of the year. I'll make sure to shout out when I have more information. <3

Hi, Mica! I'm so happy you enjoyed the series! xx I'm currently working on three new releases that are due out by the end of the year. Two are spin-offs from the Guardian world, and the other is an erotic suspense. I'm really excited about all three projects. You should see the first spin-off by the end of September. :D

(view spoiler)[Hi Mica! I'm so happy you enjoyed the Guardian series! I actually have three new books set to come out by the end of this year. Two are planned spin-offs from the Guardian world and one is a contemporary. I'm hoping to release the first spin-off this August / September! It's a story about certain powerful Guardian offspring. ;) The other spin-off has to do with Tynan. And the contemporary concept is Socialites as Mercenaries. :D 2017 is a very exciting year for me. I can't wait to get the new stories out!

Hi Ankita! I'm so happy you enjoyed the series! xx A Guardians of the Realms spin-off is due out this summer! I'll post more information as I have it, but I can tell you it has something to do with Tynan. ;) I'm also working on a romantic, erotic suspense series scheduled to release around the same time. 2017 is going to be an exciting year! :D

Awwww. Thank you so much, Rutuja! I wish I had a better answer for you, but life has been throwing things in my way and the story hasn't been transforming as quickly as I'd like. Unfortunately, that means I don't have a definite date for book ten's release. I promise that the moment I have a better grasp on the story and time frame I will shout it out everywhere. This one is so important that it can't be rushed.
Have a great day or night!

Hi Ankit. There is a series ARC or ongoing plot, but each story features a different couple. The continuing story twists and turns with each title, but they have been written as stand-alone as possible. That said, I would still recommend starting somewhere in the first three titles to enjoy the best reading experience. Thanks for reaching out and have a great day or night!

Hi Lia! Thank you so much for reading. <3 I'm thrilled that you're enjoying the series. Book ten is tentatively scheduled for a late November release, but it's not completely set yet. I wish I had a more definitive answer, but I will shout out the date in social media as soon as we have one.
