So, I've had a few changes happening in my life. Stealing Hope is no longer available other than in paperback for the moment. My rights were reverted to me.
Stealing Hope will be coming back out. I'm taking care of some errors I found, double and triple punctuation, things like that. The story will remain the same. However I will be releasing Stealing Hope back out after I release the prequel.
Rise of the Dragons, the prequel to Stealing Hope is under edits right now. I'm also working on a cover. Here is what I've come up with so far, but I'm looking for opinions. In the mean time, I'll continue edits!
Do you like it? Is the couple too subtle? What needs changing?
On a personal note, my daughter and granddaughter are moving back in with us, so I'm in destruction mode, tearing out plaster walls and putting up drywall for their move back with us. The plaster is buckling and peeling, held together with lots and lots of paint, lol.
Since my hubby and I will be moving to the smaller room so the girls will have the two bedrooms next to each other, I wanted new walls. I forgot what a mess tearing plaster down is! I came out last night after tackling the first wall, covered in dust from head to toe. At least I remember to cover my nose and mouth. But I'm wearing goggles when I go back in. One wall down, three more and the ceiling to go. Pretty sure I'll need a hard hat for that!

The apocalypse has come and gone.
Those who survived learned to adapt.

Upon eruption of a volcano, Ari awakens to a changed world, and a knowing that his dragon's mate is near. He saves her twice—once as a dragon, and again as a man—and wins her confidence.
Hope cried out, moaning, “just change me with pleasure?”
Hope is restless and unfulfilled until she meets Ari, the man of her fantasies. The sensual tension between them heightens with every touch. When their passion explodes, Hope gets pulled into the dragon's mating ritual...and into a world of erotic sensation she never dreamed existed but now cannot live without. The dragon binds his mate to him with a ritual that shows Hope her true nature in this humorous erotic romance.

EXCERPT
She heard Crag snickering somewhere behind her. She turned and splashed at him too. “I would have saved you. If you’d quit splashing and stand up, you’ll see you could stand.” Ari frowned suddenly. “Oh no. You can’t stand with your leg.” He started toward her and Hope pushed deeper into the water. “Leave me be.” She began treading water, deep enough that she didn’t have to put weight on her leg. Ignoring both of them, she sank under water to get her hair out of her face. When she popped out Hope screamed. Ari was right there, grinning at her. “What the heck?” “I was just making sure you were okay.” His eyes twinkling at her. No way was she falling for that, no matter how attractive it made him. “And I brought you the soap. How will you get clean without it?” “Fine. Give me the soap.” Ari held it back out of her reach. “No. You’ll drop it out here.” Hope growled at him. Yes, she sure did. Hope didn’t know quite how to take his teasing, if he was teasing. Ari laughed. “You can come in closer and I’ll help hold you while you wash or I can wash you here while you float.” Hope didn’t answer, but she swam in closer to shore. No way was she letting him run his hands all over her.
CHARACTER BIOS
Ari:
Male dragon, black scales tipped with blue and golden eyes. When he changes Ari has black hair, golden eyes and stocky muscular body that he doesn’t mind showing off. Outgoing with a wicked sense of humor, He has one thing on his mind, his mate. He’ll do anything to make her his, especially if it involves getting naked. He runs on the theory that it’s better to ask forgiveness than permission.
Hope:
Human, for the moment. Fated mate to Ari. She can’t seem to resist him and doesn’t understand why. She is self-sufficient, providing her family with meat from hunting and trapping small game. She is fearless and has no problem rescuing herself. She loves to play though she hasn’t had a lot of that in her life as her family focuses on survival. Family is all important to her.
AUTHOR BIO
Beverly Ovalle dabbled with writing on and off for years when her best friend finally dared her to submit a story to a writing contest. Beverly decided she had nothing to lose and since she’d always wanted to be an author sent it in and agonized for months waiting to hear back. Contract in hand she has never looked back.
Beverly has been obsessed with dragons and romance since she was a young girl, collecting dragon books and reading everything she could find on them even down to the care of real life dragons. She’s always been slightly panicked that the world as we know it will end, so has prepped for it, haunting survivalist pages and prepper projects she felt she needed in the event SHTF.
An avid fan of all romance, Beverly’s goal is to share her love of the written word and write the hot and erotic romances that she enjoys. She writes what she loves to read and it was only a matter of time before her obsessions crept into her writing for her to share. She hopes you enjoy her tales as much as she loves writing them.
A Navy Veteran, Beverly has traveled around the world and the United States enabling her to bring her settings to life, meeting and marrying her husband of twenty five years along the way for her own romance. Reading romances since the fourth grade she’s followed as the genre changed and spread into the vast cornucopia of romance offered today.

Blogging from A to Z: Zombie

Z is for Zombie
Zombie books are okay but I love Zombie Movies! Zombieland has the most important rules for survival!

A love story I really enjoyed was Warm Bodies.
Wouldn't you want hope that a cure could be found?
I do prefer my zombies with a bit of humor.
Have you seen Shaun of the Dead.
A dry witted spoof
Then there is the Walking Dead on TV. I don't need a clip of that I'm sure. I do prefer a full movie rather than seasons long shows, but that is just me.
So,
Z is for Zombies!
Thank you for following my alphabetical journey this month. I hope I managed to entertain you!

Blogging from A to Z: Survival
S is for Survival
We all want to do it! Some prepare for it better than others. I'm not going to go on about it. What I am going to do is share some videos on survival.
Have you thought about it? It's a bit of an obsession with me, but not necessarily how you think. I obsess about the AFTER. When those that initially survive figure out that life has truly changed. What happens next?
I assume some will survive. Man is like cockroaches. There are too many of us to kill off altogether. So my obsession took me in a different direction, bringing back myths and legends to live once again among man.
Stealing Hope A Dragon's Fated Heart is the culmination of that obsession.
But first we have to survive! Here are a few interesting videos I've found. Have I mentioned I love youtube?
Too bad I'm allergic to birch bark!
Here is one on how to build a shelter
Here's one attempt at making a B.O.B.
I hope these helped! If you go to youtube and type in survival you'll get a whole bunch of helpful hints.
