What fans are saying:

“By far the best installment yet. I truly felt Avery’s pain when she felt rejected by Sean. Although emotional there were parts where I was laughing out loud. You will not be disappointed. So glad there is another installment coming. Can’t wait to see what happens next! Awesome emotional roller coaster! “ -Auna

“This story has had me hooked from the very start! I love how independent Avery is. I love a strong female that you can root for, someone who has some fire to her. Avery is definitely that girl! Sean shows us a little more this book and we see what happens in the darker side of Ms.Black’s company. She’s definitely not an enemy I’d want! All in all, once again, I have to give this hot, action packed steam fest five stars!” -Littleboysmom

*****GET READY FOR MORE!*****

Thank you so much to all the awesome fans who love THE ARRANGEMENT series! As requested, volume 4 is NOT the final book in this series. Hooray! Volume 5 will be out in a few weeks and you’ll get more Sean and Avery, and have the chance to delve deeper into their lives.

Posted on February 25, 2013 by admin

SECRETS VOL 1 is only 99¢ today on Kindle!

SECRETS is a sexy, fast paced story about college student Anna Lamore and famed photographer Cole Stevens.

Description: Volume 1 in the Secrets Serials by NY Times Bestselling Author H.M. Ward

Sex is supposed to be sexy, tantalizing, and completely erotic, but Anna never seems to find the right guy. This one seems to be a germ-a-phobe, and the previous boyfriend wasn’t much better. Anna just wants to be wanted. Is that too much to ask?

As Anna tries to wiggle out of one relationship, a new one surfaces, but it’s forbidden. Cole Stevens is twice her age, arrogant, rich, sexy as hell, and her boss. When Anna’s internship plans derail, she ends up interning at Cole’s elite New York City studio. Close proximity leads Anna to discover that the billionaire bachelor is emotionally scarred. Everyone has secrets, but Cole’s run deeper, cutting him to his core. Cole is trouble in a sexy shell. He’s nothing Anna needs and everything she wants.

99¢ TODAY ONLY AT KINDLE:

Genre: New Adult Romance
The entire Secrets series (Volume 1-5) is on sale now.

Dudes, I’m going to do an entire post on serials, but in case you don’t know the diff b/t a novel and a serial, here’s the drive-by version: A novel is a long story that you can settle into, typically over 50K words or 250 pages. The story has a single climax and usually unfolds like a bell curve. A serial is a story that unfolds over multiple volumes, by design. Its’ shorter (this book is about 32K words or 125 pages), each one has it’s own climax, it’s cram-packed with emotion, and it ends with a cliffhanger.

The entire SECRETS series is out, so you don’t have to wait for the next volume. Score! Pick it up and see why this series is so popular.

Release Dates, Novels, and What’s Next (It Is Awesome! Look!)

Posted on February 22, 2013 by admin

Okay, I’m working on so many things right now that I need to adjust my timeline to accommodate everything.

*That means that release dates get shifted around.*

Instead of driving you guys nuts and changing the release dates, I’m going to do something else. Here’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to make a list of things I’m working on right now.

I’ll have a general idea of when it’ll be out and post as soon as it’s up. That means that when you ask about a specific release date (especially on serials) I won’t have one. I will have release dates on novels about 2-3 weeks prior to release. I’m going to wait until I have them back from my editor before giving exact dates from now on.

If you want to make sure you know as soon as a book is listed, stalk me on FB or Twitter. You can also have a reminder email sent straight to your little ole inbox by texting AWESOMEBOOKS to 22828 (if you are out of the country or are anti-texting, use this link).

So here are the things that are in the works, in order that I expect them to be released.

~~The Arrangement Vol. 4~~
~~Trystan Scott Vol. 4~~
~~Giveaways for~~ ~~Scandalous~~, ~~Demon Kissed~~, ~~The Arrangement~~ and Bane
~~Paperbacks of the~~ ~~Arrangement~~ (~~Vol 1,~~ ~~Vol 2~~, Vol 3, Vol 4) series
Audiobook of The Arrangement Vol 1 – narrated by…. me!
Audiobook of The Arrangement Vol 2
~~I’m working on something cool with the 1st chapter of the audio from the Arrangement for the fans to see and hear.~~
Damaged (a new adult novel)
The Arrangement Vol. 5
~~Paperbacks of~~ ~~Trystan Scott (vol. 1, vol. 2, vol. 3~~, vol. 4)
Trystan Scott #5
Paperbacks of Secrets (5×8 format – they aren’t as cute, but they are CHEAPER!)
Divergent Vampire Apocalypse #3 – final book in this series
Interview for Audiobook for Cursed
Demon Kissed #7 The final book of Eric’s story

(Cross outs mean that it’s been completed and/ or sent to editing.) That’s an insane amount of work that I expect to take me half way through the end of March, maybe early April. It doesn’t include guest posts, blogging, answering facebook posts or fan mail, which I try to do promptly. Add in a baby and things get crazy! Anyway, those are the things that are going on. It gives you an idea of how much work is on my plate. I do write more than one book at a time, which is normal, but I don’t usually that info.

Notice the pic at the top – the first volume of The Arrangement has been made in paperback. It’s the same size as Christmas Kisses and will retail for about the same price. I’ve been trying to get the paperback prices cheaper. The larger format allows that. The little books like COLLIDE are cute, but costly. The rest of The Arrangement series will be formatted for paperbacks shortly. Now you all know why my release dates shift.

Update on THE ARRANGEMENT Series

Posted on February 18, 2013 by admin

About a week ago, I asked the fans if they thought I should make THE ARRANGEMENT series wrap up in the next volume, or if they wanted more Sean and Avery. The answer was MORE Sean and Avery. You guys asked for it, and got it! THE ARRANGEMENT serials will not end at volume 4. They will keep going. Hooray!

Here are the new covers for Vol 4 & 5. Oooh! Aaaaah!

Volume 4 will be released in a week or so. To get an email reminder on release day, you can click here to make sure you don’t miss it. Thank you to all the fans who love this series!

When I first starting writing THE ARRANGEMENT, I had no idea what people would think. I got a couple of weird looks when I mentioned it to people, but what do they know? The books took off quickly. Volume 3 has been sitting in the top 100 on Amazon and I’m getting tons of email asking when the next book will be out. It’s so awesome to know that many people love this story. I can’t wait to share the rest of Sean and Avery’s sexy story with you.

So, Volume 4 will be out in about a week. Thanks for reading!

Description: Sequel to the New York Times & USA Today Bestseller SCANDALOUS

Abby never thought she’d find her soul mate, but she has and it’s changed her life forever. Jack is everything she needs and more. There’s a connection between the two of them that transcends logic and rational thought. It’s like they were made for each other. Nothing can keep them apart.

After the honeymoon ends, Jack has the most important show of his career. The centerpiece is the scandal painting of Abby. It’s Jack’s defining piece, the start of a new era. But when Jack and Abby return home, something isn’t right. Jack becomes distant as his deepest fears manifest before his eyes.

Jack has been verbally attacked for his art in the past. It’s no secret; but what Abby doesn’t realize is that a hate group has also targeted him. They hold Jack personally responsible for the moral decay in society. Not only is this corruption seen in Jack’s art, but also in his life and love. Seducing Abby made Jack a prime target.

It isn’t enough to ruin Jack’s career—these activists want to end his life.

Everything hinges on Abby and she’ll do anything to protect the man she loves.
