  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 ...

  However you like to celebrate this month, I hope you have a good time and stay safe! I thought I'd do a quick round up of my books including explicitly LGBTQ+ characters (there are several not on the list who I haven't included because it's not explicitly said or shown on page) in case anyone wanted an LGBTQ+ read. However, if that's what you're looking for, then I would recommend hopping over to my partner's solo books. Arizona writes some amazing stories and most of them feature lesbian, bi, or pan heroines: If you like mythology, then you should check out her newest series, Queens Of Olympus which starts with Trouble In Hades , a sapphic paranormal romance inspired by the myths of Hades and Persephone. If you like academy, then you should try her complete Afterlife Academy series , which follows a valkyrie-in-training, Ylva, as she learns to navigate both Valhalla and her dragon roommate, Ryoko. If you like familiars and animals, then you should check out ...

Read on to find out who (very minor spoilers but let's just say I've been dying for these two characters to meet since we started Amy's series!) *** 2021 Copyright Arizona Tape & Laura Greenwood *** "Oh good, you're back," Topaz says. "The liaison is waiting for you in conference room six. Dark hair, looks like a typical vampire, late-twenties, well-spoken," she summarises. "What does a typical vampire look like?" I ask her. She shrugs. "You'll see. There's no other way to describe it." I'll admit to being a little intrigued, and also intimidated. Just who are we supposed to be meeting? We make our way to the conference room and enter to find Dean talking to a slender woman with a pale complexion, a dark braid, and a black lacy dress that looks both modern and Victorian at the same time. Topaz is not wrong. The look real...

Top Tips to keep your Dragon Shifter happy (originally created by my co-author, Arizona Tape – and borrowed with permission!) Dragons have a deep love for their own element and will choose a drink that represents that element. They will even go as far to die their drink the right colour. Don’t question it. Every Dragon community has their own set of curses like: “for fire’s sake” or “holy rock formation”. However, if you’re not part of their element, it’s considered rude to use it. When they shift into their dragon form, they become a lot bigger. Make sure to have at least one room available for emergency shifts. Like the boxing gym in Dragon Soul or the training cave in the Earth community. Fire dragons, in particular, love fire, as expected from them. Make sure to have stern rules about where and when they can play with their flames or they’ll burn your house down. Dragons are very protective over their young and their eggs. Don’t. Touch. The. Eggs. Unless you have permiss...

(Limited time pricing, it'll be going up in price after release week!)  About the Excerpt Copyright 2019 Arizona Tape & Laura Greenwood. This is an unedited excerpt and is subject to change. The Excerpt The first day of autumn was ruined by a heavy man with a moustache that looked somewhat like a dead mouse.  “I want to exchange this wand!” he bellowed, waving one of my finest wands in front of my nose. His grubby hand was coiled so tight around it, I was surprised he hadn’t snapped it yet. I took a deep breath to calm myself and used my best customer service voice. “Due to the personal nature of wands, I can’t take allow an exchange. We discussed this upon purchase and you can see it here on your ticket. I’m sorry.” “Nonsense! My son barely used it.” He slammed the wand do...

October is Black Cat Appreciation Month (at least, according to some sources it is. Some others seem to think that it should be August, but that's well and truly gone, so we're running with October!)  To celebrate all things Black Cat, Arizona Tape and I decided to ask our only character who owns a black cat (well, only joint character, technically Mona owns a black cat too) what her top ten reasons why black cats are awesome are. You can find five of them here, and five of them on Arizona's Website . Black cats are the least likely to be adopted from shelters, and I've seen this first hand. My best friend (who I've known since we were eleven) has a black cat named Jack, who she adopted because no one else would. And he is an absolute sweetheart. He loves cuddles, and will climb inside her jumpers (and once climbed all over my face while I was sleeping). Luckily for me, black cats are lucky here in the UK, and I can certainly say that Jack was!  B...
