"Then we can plan and eat." A genuine smile spread over her face. "I'd like that." "What should I get? I'll admit to not having any idea what an eight-year-old eats." "You'll get used to that," she promised. "You should have seen me when she was a baby. I had no idea what I was doing or ...

Fictional Siblings

Image
  As one of five kids, siblings were a huge part of my life, so it's no surprise that several of my characters have siblings that are either main characters or love interests themselves!

Image
If you're looking for a little bit of light-hearted banter and fun romance, look no further than my complete MatchMater Paranormal Dating App series! I never planned for there to be more than one book in the series, but I had so much fun with Achilles and Dakota that there had to be a second one! Read on for an excerpt!   *** Copyright 2019 Laura Greenwood *** "Do you have your keys?" the handsome dragon asked. She giggled. "Why wouldn't I?" He sighed. "Because you're drunk." Why was he so mean when they both might still be having fun. Apparently, grumpy dragons didn't like enjoying themselves. "Maybe I can make you a not-grumpy dragon," she murmured aloud without meaning to. "What?" "I didn't say anything," she responded hastily. "Nothing at all." "You realise I can hear everything you're saying. My kind come with super hearing." "No they don't," she slurred, trying to...

Read on for a teaser! *** Copyright 2021 Laura Greenwood *** "And that's the reason you'll make a great leader. You understand it isn't as simple as just winning the trial." He raises his mug towards me. "To Queen Kayra." A blush steals across my cheeks, but I have to admit I like the way it sounds. "And to one of her most trusted advisors," I respond. "We both know I hope to be more than that to you." The words are almost inaudible, but not quite. I imagine he's done it on purpose. I think he wants me to respond, but also wants to give me an easy escape if I'm not ready to. I set down my mug on the windowsill and turn to face him. He seems to notice my seriousness and sets his...

Update: Grave Mistake (Amethyst's Wand Shop Mysteries)

Image
  I know it seems like there are a lot of updates at the moment, but I promise the reasoning is that there's a lot of good stuff ahead and both Arizona and I want to bring the best to everything we're doing. Long story short: if you're looking at Grave Mistake on retailers then you might now find it at the end of the Amethyst's Wand Shop Mysteries series . When we put Grave Mistake up for pre-order, we thought we were going to be finished writing Amy & Ambrose's series before we got to it (we originally planned up to 6 books for them, but have sinced realised that there's no way we could be done at 6 (or 8, which is the last one currently on pre-order). We always planned for Grave Mistake to have a standalone crime in it (like the books in Amy's series), and so we've decided that (for now), we're going to write it as a standalone for Stacey and Gabriel (who we are desperate to write for because they've been very loud about what their story ...

Image
This teaser comes from book two in the complete Supernatural Retrieval Agency series, but that's because it includes one of my favourite parts of writing this series - the friendship between cupid, Pippa, and the main couple! Read on for a teaser. ~~~~ Copyright 2021 Laura Greenwood ~~~~ Pippa sets a mug down in front of me and perches on my desk. "Thanks." I pick it up and put it in a safer place where I don't risk knocking it off while doing my paperwork. "So, how was your date?" she asks in a sing-song voice. "What date?" Her mouth falls open. "Have you two not been on a date yet?" "If you mean me and Elias, then no, we haven't." "But I thought he owed you home-cooking." "He does. But there hasn't been time." I wave my arm at the huge stack of paperwork on my desk, our so-called punishment for not making any arrests at the house where Regina was being held captive. I don't know why we're th...

Excerpt: Acolyte Of Truth (Forgotten Gods #5)

Image
Acolyte Of Truth is the fifth book in the Forgotten Gods series.  *** Copyright 2021 Laura Greenwood *** I followed Ma'at into a small room, with Menefer trailing behind me. He didn't need to say anything for me to know how worried he was about this part of my journey. Not that I blamed him. Today was going to be the day I died. There wasn't a real way for me to prepare for that. Not when I had no idea what I was supposed to expect. "When you're ready, there's poisoned wine for you to drink," Ma'at said, gesturing to the goblet sitting on the only table in the room. "Will it hurt?" My voice cracked, revealing the worry I was feeling about my impending demise. Ma'at shook her head. "It will put you into a peaceful sleep, you shouldn't feel a thing. After that, your guess is as good as mine about what happens, but you should be able to find your way to the Hall of Judgement on your own." "Thank you." "I'll l...
