Stray Cat (Shifters Unbound, Book 16) is out today on my web store:

Stray Cat on Jennifer’s Web Store

It will be out next week in paperback and e-book at the usual vendors:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

Kobo

Google

Apple

Please note that the paperback is not pre-orderable at Amazon but will be available there on May 14. For some reason, they are allergic to pre-orders for print. The paperback is available for pre-order from Barnes and Noble (who are more sensible, so far). You can also order the paperback from my web store (now), but in all honesty, it will not get to you any faster, because I have to order it myself from the printer, and shipping will not be any cheaper.

For Audio: The lovely Cris Dukehart is working on it now, and I’ll announce when that book is ready.

I still have so many Shifters whose stories I want to tell: Neal and Kiera (you meet Kiera in Bear Facts). Brody and … (you’ll meet her in Stray Cat ). I’d also like to go back to the North Carolina Shiftertown and revisit a few Shifters there, like Kenzie’s fierce uncle, Jamie the cheetah, and Cade the grizzly (“Bears just wanna have fun”). All these characters were introduced in Mate Bond. Plus there are a few hanging around the Austin Shiftertown. I also have many requests for stories about the cubs when they get older.

However, I am thinking I’m next going to do the book I’ve long been pondering about Dylan (simply called Dylan). While it will be a romance with a HEA, it will also be a saga and Dylan’s history, how he came to be who he is, and where he’s going. More about Fae / Shifter history and settling those issues. Basically, all about Dylan! Plus his family, his loves, his losses, etc. It’s Time for this book.

I can’t guess how long it will take me to write it, but Dylan will be the next Shifter book I work on.

Before then:

I am now writing (about halfway done) A Moveable Feast (Kat Holloway novella), which I’d hoped to have out at Easter, but that wasn’t going to happen. It is still set at Easter, but it won’t be out until June. When I’m finished with the draft (next couple of weeks if all goes well), I’ll put it up for pre-order.

Then I’m contracted to write a new Kat Holloway novel (probably titled Murder in Blackfrairs) which will be out next year. (A Silence in Belgrave Square is this year’s Kat Holloway novel, out this August.)

Continuing with mysteries, I will then write Murder on the Rhône (Captain Lacey Regency Mysteries Book 18), and at long last another Leonidas the Gladiator mystery!

Then back to romances. I have a lot on my plate as usual, but I’m getting to all the series as I can.

I have some new things on the horizon as well, as my creative brain never ceases to bother me.

I hope you enjoy Stray Cat (if you’re a Shifters Unbound reader). Happy spring!
