I get to share cover art! Now that the piece is written and submitted, I feel good about announcing I’ll have a short story in this book. Isn’t the cover gorgeous? The release date in the UK is March 2010 and I’ll let you know when it’s available here.

I snatched this description off Goodreads.
Stirring romance featuring the heroes of the Navy SEALs, Delta Force, Air Force Pararescue, the Green Berets, the Army Rangers and other special forces: men and women who live and fight in extreme danger to preserve our freedoms, defenders and protectors of all we hold dear..
This collection includes the work of bestselling romance writers such as Shannon K. Butcher and Stephanie Tyler and Larissa Ione, writing as Sydney Croft. Sydney Croft’s special forces couple, Annika and Creed, work for the Agency for Covert Rare Operatives (ACRO), all of whose members have special powers, while Shannon K. Butcher’s hero is an ex-Navy SEAL. But these fighting men and women have a gentler, protective side; hard-edged weapons when on active duty, they can be caring lovers, of special forces teammates or the civilians they protect.
It feels great to have something coming out again. I really enjoyed creating these characters and may possibly revisit their world in longer fiction later.
Here’s a teaser.
Cane River is set in Louisiana in the hottest part of summer. Marcus Bellany, a US Marshal in the SOG (Special Ops Group) is asked by his best friend to rescue his sister. She’s hacked into the wrong network, is hiding out in a cabin by the river and is wreaking havoc on the bad guys. What the brother doesn’t know is Erica had a major thing for Bellany and tried to seduce him when she was only sixteen. She didn’t succeed, but Marcus has never forgotten how hard it was to say no.
