Continuing the Kat Holloway series

I realized this summer that my publisher has scheduled the Below Stairs Mysteries books quite far apart (next one, A Silence in Belgrave Square, is August 2025), so I decided to write two new novellas to fill in the gap.

The first one: A Measure of Menace, is finished and ready for release over the next two weeks.

E-books ordered directly from my web store drop on September 23: https://geni.us/QUfe

Jennifer Ashley answered Jericho 1-4's question: I've really enjoyed your unbound shifter series as it has some of the most unique characters in the shifter romance genre, is Connor and Tiger girls the last one or do you plan to write books for some of the secondary characters who have appeared in the series? Bear Facts (about Shane and his mate, a new character called Freya), came out this January: (https://jenniferashley.com/jennifer-a...). I am indeed writing more! Stray Cat is next.

Quotes by Jennifer Ashley (?)

“I loved and adored you, but I drained you like a thirsty man at a spring. I loved what you could give me - your admiration, your acceptance, your love, your forgiveness. I forgot to love you for yourself.”
― Jennifer Ashley, Lady Isabella's Scandalous Marriage

“We don't fit in, you and me," he said. "We're both oddities no one knows what to do with. But we fit together." He took her hand, pressed her palm to his, then laced their fingers through each other's. "We fit.”
― Jennifer Ashley, The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie

“Ian closed his eyes. Beth watched emotions flicker across his face, the uncertainty, the stubbornness, the raw pain he’d lived with for so long. He didn’t always know how to express his emotions, but that didn’t mean he didn’t feel them deeply.
When Ian slowly opened his eyes, he guided his gaze directly to Beth’s. His golden eyes shimmered and sparkled, pupils ringed with green. He held her gaze steadily, not blinking, or shifting away.
“I love you,” he said.
Beth caught her breath, and sudden tears blurred her vision.
“Love you,” Ian repeated. His gaze bore into hers harder than Hart’s ever could hope to. “Love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you…”
― Jennifer Ashley, The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie

First--so sorry I'm just seeing this--alerts sometimes show up; sometimes they don't. I don't always have a choice about bundling the books--the publisher has to decide to do it (though I ask them, trust me). In March, two novellas, Lone Wolf, and Feral Heat are coming out bundled together in the print book, Shifter Mates. In September, a print bundle of Scandal and the Duchess and Untamed Mackenzie is releasing in a book called "The Scandalous Mackenzies." In E- I have a boxed set called "Shifters Unbound Boxed set" (original name, LOL), which has Hard Mated, Bodyguard, and Shifter Made. See my website (http://www.jenniferashley.com) for links to all of those (click "Jennifer's books" on the top menu).
