Hey, Jealousy!
All right! It’s release day for Jealousy, the third in the Strange Angels series!
Dru Anderson might finally be safe. She’s at the largest Schola on the continent, and beginning to learn what it means to be svetocha–half vampire, half human, and all deadly. If she survives her training, she will be able to take her place in the Order, holding back the vampires and protecting the oblivious normal people.
But a web of lies and betrayals is still closing around her, just when she thinks she can relax a little. Her mentor Christophe is missing, her almost-boyfriend is acting weird, and the bodyguards she’s been assigned seem to know much more than they should. And then there’s the vampire attacks, the strange nightly visits, and the looks everyone keeps giving her. As if she should know something.
Or as if she’s in danger.
Someone high up in the Order is a traitor. They want Dru dead–but first, they want to know what she remembers of the night her mother died. Dru doesn’t want to remember, but it looks like she might have to–especially since once Christophe returns, he’ll be on trial for his life. The only person who can save him is Dru.
The problem is, once she remembers everything, she may not want to…
I am currently suffering the writer’s version of performance anxiety. I plan on hitting the rock wall today to combat it, plus there’s revisions on another book and fresh wordcount to get in. Work really is the cure for everything that ails me, at least lately.
But I don’t want to go without saying thank you to the people who helped make today’s release possible, from my writing partner to my agent and editor, to the great team at Razorbill, to my children and my sisters, to my friends CMH and SZ, and everyone who told me to just get on with it.
Most of all, dear Reader, thank you. I shall thank you in the way we both like best, by telling you a story. I hope you like Dru’s continuing adventures…
You can buy Jealousy at Borders, Barnes & Noble, Book Depository, Indiebound, and Amazon. Signed copies are available! There’s also a chance to win the whole series at the Strange Angels official website.

Happy Release Day!
I actually managed to get my copy yesterday and finished it last night. I loved it. Mostly. So much pain! And the ending was just…yeah, bring on Defiance!

I read Jealousy twice now and am about to read it again for the third time. Your writing is wonderful, the characters are strong and I look forward to the next in the series. You did a wonderful job. Thank you.

Go you–on so many levels!
Congratulations on the release. It’s gonna rock.
Congratulations, too, on all the work you’ve done to strengthen the physical to match the spiritual. I’m so proud of what you’ve done. Although it wasn’t on the death certificate, I know Teri’s weight aggravated every medical condition she had. It was a big part of the reason we lost her way too soon. Thank you for changing that dynamic for yourself and everyone who loves you.
Hugs,
