Preorders, Page-Turners & Fresh Words 🔥
Oct 28, 2025 5:01 pm
Welcome to every single one of you, my deliciously dark readers.
And to all the present readers, I have kept you waiting, but the wait is almost over.
The end of the year is close enough to smell, and it gives the sweet scent of danger, deceit, and a second installment in my Torture Games series that might make you change your mind about me.
Who am I kidding?
Some of you are going to love me even more.
To the others, I say, give it time. I am like black mold that spreads when you are not paying attention. So, without leaving you hanging (like I did to certain other characters), here are a few wild notions.
I know this is going to sound very childish, but it’s my FREAKING BIRTHDAY next month.
And although I am not requiring chicken bone ruins or proof of life to have a day with my friends, it still makes me happy to think that they will be showing up to join in with the juvenile festivities that will be my 40th birthday party.
On the down low, my hubby arranged everything, and not to brag, but I will be having a Spiderman bouncy castle.
As if Spidey could keep up with my insatiable zest for life and arthritic hip.
Not to mention, I have a Llama piñata that I am going to beat the living crap out of as any respectable adult should.
Oh, to see colorful pieces detach and fly into the crowd, watching the magnificent display of rage. I find it quite cathartic and freeing to exert my adult frustration in spectacular fashion and still get rewarded.
At 40, I realize that it should be a dignified affair, but who is going to set the fun police on me? See, a writer can romanticize anything. But keep that in mind when I let you know what I have planned.
Either way, let me introduce you to my next party victim. This is Pippa.
He has a fluffy tail and seems to know what is coming.
I didn’t warn him. Seems inappropriate.
Besides, I like my sneak attacks while others are at my mercy. Just ask any of my male characters in Sweet Misery.
I have the most exciting book I am beta-reading at the moment.
It’s called Broken Blood Bonds by M Kay Noir, and I am completely invested in this story.
Of course, I am also trying to sound professional when I ask questions and make comments, but honestly, all I can do is devour the book and act like a book gremlin when someone approaches me.
If this isn’t really your scene, I suggest you make time to regroup and retry some new things. If only to see k!nk reign supreme.
This is coming after a grueling editing stint for Sweet Misery. I am so close to the release that I can smell the decaying flesh. (IYKYK)
Then, to my genuine surprise, I hankered for a Christmas tale.
I started earlier this year with a cutesy little story of misunderstood identities and the insufferable need for a Santa Claus.
Naturally, I can guarantee that it is going to turn dark, and even Krampus has made an appearance on my mood board. It’s always good to attach personality traits to a character, and the Grinch was just way too tame for what I had in mind.
Although this is still in the planning stage, aka chapter one for a pantser like me. I would like to finish it, maybe for my last release this year.
All I can say is hold on to your clumps of coal because I will be giving my readers a wild ride with my December release.
Which will be my gift to you, my special darklings.
Sweet Misery is in the preorder stage and will be released on December 20th.
Is there any way to describe how excited I am for you to read this book without sounding conceited? No? Then here it is.
I absolutely loved writing this book, and although it wasn’t the plan to go where no maggots have gone before, I still had nightmares of them crawling all over me.
Still not convinced? What if I told you that Naz did the unspeakable to someone’s unmentionables and enjoyed every single stabbing second?
ENOUGH SAID.
Here is the blurb for you to check out.
And because my heart is like a South African Taxi, there is always space for one more arc reader. Be sure to use the link to register.
BLURB
Taken, tormented, and trapped, there is only one option left for Naz Adams, and that is to save herself.
After she is scarred by the intrusion of her past into her present, Naz vows to rebuild her carefully constructed world on a solid foundation of Revenge and Redemption.
She has spent her life running from the memory of the monster in her past.
Now, she must decide if her fractured soul is worth saving, even if it means being with the one she has come to despise.
Griffin Maxwell expected Naz to run back into his arms.
But the woman he got back was cold, calculating, and merciless, with one goal in mind: settling old scores.
He will make Naz realize the truth about their relationship, even if it destroys them both.
All he needs to do is make her see that in a world where trust is dangerous and love is a weapon, redemption comes at a price. And some scars are carved too deep to heal.
Perfect for dark romance readers who crave enemies-to-lovers tension, morally gray anti-heroes, and the kind of love story that leaves bruises.

But as a special treat, don’t forget my FMC is a mysterious assassin with a special gift, who poses as a ‘dancer’ to dispose of her cartel enemies.
Who wouldn’t want to read about Maddy’s technique?
I meant to say atrocities.
I always get those two confused.
This one is available in Kindle Unlimited with the paperback coming soon... AND A STUNNING SPECIAL EDITION!
The next anthology on the list is definitely giving vacation vibes.
As always, I tried not to disappoint my readers by weaving an intricate tale called ‘Vintage Love’ as lost love is renewed and blazes in an unstoppable fire.
Literally.
This Nicole Frail Books Anthology can be found on KU, along with all the other books mentioned here.
As always, I have some great news for you.
Sweet Torture is going on a virtual book tour!!!!
Plunge into Books Tours will be in charge of giving some select reviewers an opportunity to experience Sweet Torture for the first time.
And let me tell you, not only am I as excited as I was on the first day of release.
But I also find myself intrigued by the new opportunities created to share my dream with other darkling readers like yourself.
That is also the reason why I decided to enroll not one, but two of my books in the Romance Book Blast that is happening on October 28th
Sweet Torture as well as The Taste of Sin will be free on the link below.
And let me tell you, the selection of free books that will be offered is on fire.
And if you are like so many spoiled readers out there that I have seen fall in love with their kindles or e-readers, then this is precisely what you need to fill that thing up to the brim with exciting books.
It could be your opportunity to extend your TBR so that it will keep you busy well into the new year and create the perfect excuse why you can’t eat dry turkey with that annoying cousin of yours around Christmas time.
Life is too short to miss out on a spicy book, detailed character art, or discovering your newest favorite author.
That is all from me for now.
Stay Sassy.
