I finally managed to fix my technical issues and updated the Baby Steps podcast. Hopefully we’re going back to a regular weekly posting!

I also received a lovely review for Christmas Magic from Dark Diva Reviews, which was a nice surprise.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! May your day be filled with love and romance!

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, I’m releasing the Fourth Vision of Destiny today, in which after a one-night stand Mike might just find the perfect man in time for Valentine’s Day. Check out the blurb and excerpt at

What else… I posted the Samhain Freebie on my website. The Fertile Moon Festival is no Valentine’s Day, but Kar, Will and Jay do know how to celebrate!

A few more hours to take part in the bet/worst pick up lines contest, and one more day for 25% off my Alinar novels and novellas!

Have a fantastic day!

A couple days early, Samhain released a short freebie today that features the three characters from Moonlust a year after the story takes place.

Starting now and until Monday the 15th, all my Alinar novels and novellas are 25% off. Check it out at

Also, remember you have a few more days to participate in my contest for a free ebook!

Valentine’s Day is coming, and so is the release of Fourth Vision of Destiny, so I thought it was time for a new contest! In Fourth Vision of Destiny, Mike’s vision of his future shows him struggling to flirt with a man he’s attracted to, and he utters a couple of really cringe-worthy pick-up lines.

So here’s the contest – what’s the worst and/or best pick up line(s) someone ever tried to use on you… or that you ever tried to use on someone?

You have until Valentine’s Day to share with us as a reply to this post, and a winner picked randomly on Monday the 15th will get their choice of any one of my Alinar books.

So who’s playing with me?

I finally updated the Baby Steps podcast. Sorry for the delay, I’ve been battling with technical glitches. Always so much fun…

My big news for the day though is the release of Moonlust by Samhain. It’s a bit different from my usual stories, but it was a ton of fun to write… and hopefully to read, too! check it out at

I hope you’ll enjoy!

I’m putting the last touch to the new podcast and should have it up tomorrow but I wanted to point you toward an interview I just did with Blackraven’s Erotic Cafe. There’s a ton of excerpts there, and a contest at the end, too. Check it out at

The contest ends tomorrow so act fast!

Looking back on 2009, I see several things I’m rather proud of – finishing the Out of the Box series and finally releasing Baby Steps after two years of struggling with the story come to mind.

I see some not-so-good things, too. The sequel to Blurred Nights was supposed to come out in October, but I’m still working on it as I write this, and hope to see it finally released in the first trimester of 2010.

Looking forward to 2010, I can only be excited by what’s to come. In January, my first sci-fi novella will be released by Samhain. I will continue working on the Visions of Destiny. I’ve got a couple Pacts and Special Enforcers stories planned, too. And yes, the sequel(s) to Out of the Box that I know some of you have been waiting for. So much to write…

I can only hope that you’ll enjoy my stories as the year goes by, and that only success, love and happiness will come your way.

Lots of love,

♥ Kallysten

With family coming in for the Holidays, I’m going to be mostly offline for the next couple of weeks so I’d like to wish all of you the best possible end for 2009, and a fantastic, romantic and sexy 2010!

Last update – I just posted a new chapter of the Baby Steps podcast, and Third Vision is available on Alinar and Kindle; it should be available on Fictionwise on Monday.

Take care everyone!

Third Vision of Destiny is now up, my last release for 2009. It feels nice to be working on a new series like this one, with characters I can follow from one installment to the next.

Now on my writing list – Blurred Bloodlines. It has been giving me much more trouble than I expected, but I’m slowly getting there and I’m going to focus on this story until it’s done.

Next release mid-January – my space opera threesome, Moonlust. I can’t wait!
