Changes, Changes! The Children and the Blood trilogy is now the Kindling trilogy!

One of the great things about being an indie author is the ability to make changes. If something isn’t working quite right, no problem. Try something different.

Like changing titles, for example.

Of all the books I’ve written, The Children and the Blood, Taliesin Ascendant, and Merlin’s Children are three of my favorites. Between the magic, the action, the suspense, and all the varied and complex characters, there isn’t a moment of this urban fantasy trilogy that I don’t love.

Over the years, though, I’ve gotten mixed feedback on the titles. Some people thought it was a story about vampires (no). Others thought it was a story about the children of God (also no). Amazon slotted me into the Arthurian fiction section for a while (ergh, I love King Arthur but that’s not quite accurate). Turns out the titles weren’t working so well and were a bit of a hard sell.

So I’m changing them.

Today I’d like to introduce you to the Kindling Trilogy! The stories remain the same, so no worries that I’ve done away with anything you love. The titles and the series name are the only things that I’ve changed.

Meet the Kindling Trilogy: Kindling, Ignite, and Wildfire!

As a part of this re-release of the new titles, I’m also pricing the first book of the trilogy, Kindling, at only 99 cents. So if you haven’t started this series yet—and if you love magic, intrigue, and thrills like an action movie—the Kindling Trilogy is the story for you!

New Release and a Free Book! The Touch Me Series by Skye Malone

Touch Me 3 by Skye Malone is now available – and Touch Me 1 is free!

Touch Me 3 by Skye Malone - Demon Paranormal Romance Novella

Monsters walk among us.
And now they have Ruby.

Best friend. Confidant. Ally when everything in my life felt like hell. There are very few people I trust.

And none of them come close to Ruby.

But now demons have her. House Volgert has taken her, demanding that I serve as their emissary to the equally dangerous and terrifying House Linden. But Linden is after me too.

I’m stuck between two titans of the demon world. I’m running out of options and I’m running out of time. But when I find out what demons do to the humans they capture, the nightmare gets even worse.

If I don’t find Ruby soon, it won’t matter if she escapes the Houses.

I’m still going to lose her forever.

Touch Me 1 by Skye Malone – NOW FREE!

Touch Me by Skye Malone - Demon Paranormal RomanceDemons are real.

And I’m one of them.

I never expected my life to change on a night out with my best friend. I only thought I was going to celebrate her birthday at a local club, not end up in a hospital after seeing supernatural things that couldn’t possibly be real.

Talk about being wrong.

Now I’m seeing things everywhere. I’m overwhelmed by a hunger I can’t shake — an impossible hunger that drives me to feed off the sexual energy of others, even if it just might make me kill somebody. I’m losing control and entering a world I never knew existed — one filled with monsters who look just like anyone else.

The night was supposed to be simple. Normal. After all, my life thus far has been unbelievably ordinary.

Now it’s anything but.
