These aren't just lightly edited re-releases either. Very few authors get the opportunity to go back to their first published book and level it up, but re-releasing with LT3 is giving me just that. New, better content will be added; focus will be shifted to reflect the book's new home; and of course, other nips and tucks here and there will make Equilibrium shine. I can't wait to share it with everyone again. ♥

Equilibrium is coming in August, but you can pre-order both books now at Less Than Three! Click the cover to head over to the pre-sale pages.

Okay, they're not that old, but I'm super pleased to be able to announce my plans for both the Superpowered Love and Elementals series: 

Superpowered Love has found a new home with the marvelous Less Than Three press! I've known and worked with them for years now, and I couldn't be happier that they've accepted all eight extant books. I'm also super looking forward to working on the last 2 (or maybe 3...) with them to bring this epic series to the close I've been planning for years now. I hope you'll join me for the ride!

Work has already begun on the first book, Equilibrium, and I'll be quick with updates as things progress. Have I mentioned I'm excited? I'm so excited! 

As for the Elementals--I know, I know, I only do one of these every three years, it seems like. I've been planning book 3 for ages now, but this will be the year. In that spirit, I've just re-released the first two via Amazon. They're on Kindle Unlimited and available for purchase! Check out By the River and Back to the Sky. 

As a side note, if you want to know more, please check out the Elementals page or the separate book pages. Also, if anyone would like a review copy of By the River or Back to the Sky, please get in touch with me and let me know your preferred format. kate AT kateyhawthorne DOT com.

Almost seven years ago, I made a site called "Superpowered Love" when I sold my romance first novel, Equilibrium, to Loose Id. Before that book was even published, I already had the next two sent off to the editor, and I knew this was gonna be a long and awesome road. Late last year, book 8 in the series, The Takedown, dropped. And I'm not quite finished, either. Somewhere in there, people started referring to the series itself as "Superpowered Love"--so Loose Id rolled with it, and I loved it. 

Now, as I work on Book 9, Loose Id is winding down its last month of sales. On May 15, all of its books will start disappearing from online retailers. For me, it's an end to an amazing era.

But it's also the beginning of a new one. The "Superpowered Love" series--and all my other work--will be finding new life starting this summer. Partly through relationships with other publishers I've come to know and love over the past few years, and partly through things I'm gonna do with other authors or on my own. I'm feeling pretty good about all this, and I'll have announcements in May for sure, so stay tuned.

In a similar vein, it's been a big couple of months--year, even--for queer romance and romance in general. A lot of issues that need to be more widely talked about, in particular abuse and racism in the industry, are finally getting the attention they deserve. This is mostly thanks to a few brave people, both people who've been directly abused and authors of color who are sharing their experiences, speaking out. I love and support these people and can't thank them enough. I'm gonna boost their signals when and where I can.

A lot of this is part of my decision to take on more self-publishing and independent projects. Those of you on social media might have seen the joint statement issued by authors of the wlw Rose & Thorn series, formerly of Riptide, stating that we'll now be going it alone. But not alone--actually together. ♥ But I'm also excited to keep working with Less Than Three Press, who've always been amazing. 

It's a new chapter for me, and so I figured it was time for a site makover. Ta-dah!

And now, I'm gonna fuck off to France for a few weeks, because sweet Jesus, I need a vacation. Catch you on the flipsside--or if you're a social media kid like me, catch you there. More to come upon my return!

Happy Holidays, everyone! Here's to a much better 2018, amiright? Now to figure out what I'm doing for New Years... something auspicious. Very auspicious. 

For now, though, what could be more fun than a new book? Come and get it!

Wolf-Beast and ex-cop Lowell Kanaan recently brought his boyfriend, Elementalist and mystery author John Tilney, into the PI business with him. They've been solving cases for Boston's varied praeternatural communities ever since. So when a young Terran feels that the brutal murder of his Beast boyfriend isn't being treated seriously enough by the police, he brings the case to Kanaan & Tilney for a second opinion.

Similarly defiled corpses pop up around Boston as they race to find the killer. All the victims are packless Beasts, like Lowell, and the vicious nature of the killings stir up old prejudices in the praeternatural community, Beast and otherwise. Throw a personal vendetta and some ugly family history for Lowell in the mix, and the trails are as muddy as ever. 

This case will test Kanaan & Tilney's strength, both as a PI team and a couple. It'll take all they have to keep each other alive—and stop a serial killer.

Come and get it at Loose Id--to take advantage of their epic, yearly "What I really wanted for Christmas" sale for the last time--or these awesome retailers.
