D. L. Jackson's Debut Novel Released Today!


***  OUT TODAY!  *** 

A frequent visitor to Spacefreighters Lounge, D. L. (Dawn) Jackson has a debut e-novel--a Futuristic Romance titled SLIPPING THE PAST--being released today by Liquid Silver Books!

SLIPPING THE  PAST is a soaring love story with some wicked twists and surprises. 

Here's the blurb from the Liquid Silver website:

Some love affairs last a lifetime, others never end.

Jocelyn Miller is a fugitive. She’s blind, homeless and was doomed to spiritual incarceration from the moment she drew her first breath. On the run since her eighteenth birthday, she’s somehow managed to stay one step ahead of the reapers. If she’s caught, she knows she’ll lose her soul, but what she doesn’t expect—is to lose her heart.

Innocent people don’t have warrants.

Or do they?

Gabriel Solaris is an enforcer, a genetically enhanced psychic often referred to as a reaper for his ability to take souls, and he’s charged with collecting Jocelyn’s. When he finds Jocelyn outside the store, he’s sure she’s up to something illegal. Proving it isn’t necessary, he already has a warrant. But the closer Gabriel gets to Jocelyn, the more he begins to question his duty. Her claims of innocence have a ring of truth he can’t deny.

I loved you once.

Gabriel loses control and kisses her. Instead of taking her soul, he gives her a week to prove her innocence for past-life crimes. Now it isn’t only Jocelyn’s soul at stake. If she can’t prove her innocence, Gabriel will go down with her.

Congratulations, Dawn!

Second Sale for D. L. Jackson!

I am delighted to report that D. L. Jackson (who we know as Dawn) has just made another sale--her second in a little over a month!  Her Science Fiction Romance/Erotica titled LAST FLIGHT OF THE ARK will be released as an e-book by Liquid Silver Books.  I'll keep you updated on a release date.  Dawn offered this preliminary blurb to whet our appetite. 

Evolution never happened so fast.

Twelve hours outside of Terra II, Colonel Kaleb Titan, a molecular geneticist and commander of the Ark, faces a life or death choice that could change the fate of mankind.

The Genesis I, aka the Ark, has traveled for eight months with a hold full of wildlife and three crew members to keep her on course and operating. When a wolf bite and genetically-altering gamma radiation transform Colonel Titan, he notices his senses have been heightened and his libido has gone haywire. He can’t keep his hands off his crew and they don’t seem inclined to stop him.

When their sister ship, the Genesis II arrives early, Kaleb’s problems compound. If Earth Command learns of the infection, his ship will be quarantined and the crew will die in space. When the command crew of the Genesis II boards his ship, one whiff tells him they’re not who they appear to be. They might have flown the Genesis II to Terra II, but they’re not from earth and Kaleb suspects they want their planet and cargo.

When he discovers that they’ve kept the Genesis II’s crew of over two thousand alive, he begins to believe their reasons may be far more ominous than anyone could have imagined. However, he also discovers what’s holding them back. The hijackers seem to be allergic to canines.

Now, Captain Melissa Deluzio, the pilot, Lieutenant Jessica Stearns, a wildlife biologist, and Colonel Rivers are forced to employ biological warfare against their own people, but will it be enough to save them?

History is about to repeat and only one species will survive.

Dawn's first novel, SLIPPING THE PAST, will be available soon from Liquid Silver Books.

Congratulations, Dawn!

Primed for Launch!

I've been chomping at the bit to share some exciting news for the last week or so, and I was given the go-ahead today. One of my co-hosts over on Take it to the Stars, Dawn Jackson, has just had a short story accepted for publication in an anthology. Fabulous news, but the even more exciting part is that now a lot of interest is being shown in her other work.

I can tell you from first hand experience that Dawn is a very talented and prolific writer (ticks off novels on fingers, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6...and I know I'm missing several) who uses her military background to write wonderful SciFiRoms, SciFiErotica, and SciFi/Fantasy and YA Sci Fi. I think I'm as excited as Dawn about the sale. Well, almost.

Dawn has been very active on a number of SciFiRom blogs, so many of you may be familiar with her user name.

Please join me in wishing Dawn a spectacular launch on her writing career. :)

Best wishes, Dawn. The Billins is on the house!
