Karen Kelley became very adept at how things worked in the publishing world. You write a book, you mail it off, you get rejected, you write another book. She did this for six years until one day she talked her husband into mailing her manuscript for her. She couldn't take one more look of pity from the postal workers. Being the loving husband that he is, he mailed Bachelor Party to Hilary Sares at Kensington to be considered for the Precious Gem line on a Tuesday. On Friday of that same week, Hilary called to offer a contract.
Wow! Wouldn't it be great if everything in life was that easy? Publishing can be a rocky road with lots of highs and lows but, oh, what a fun trip!
When Karen's not writing, she loves doing crafts, and she'll try just about anything. At present, she's scrapbooking and making necklaces. She's country all the way. She loves antiques, embroidered scarves, crocheted doilies and quilts.
Karen met the love of her life when they were kids, they married when they were still just kids even though everyone said it wouldn't last. That was almost 42 years ago and Karl is still her very best friend. They have two fabulous children who married fabulous people and gave them four wonderful grandchildren that they can spoil--then return to the peace and quiet of their home.

salvation—her sworn enemy...
When Eirik, the only living dragon shifter, and prince of the Ean, killed her
brother, Ciara was left alone to face her prophetic dreams. Now, in order to
find the wolves’ sacred stone and save all the Chrechte from destruction, she
needs her enemy’s help.
Eirik was only protecting the children of his people, but that day in the
forest left a mark on him as well. Controlling his dragon’s fire is the most
difficult thing he’s ever done—until he and Ciara are forced to face not only
their shared tumultuous past, but a hallowed bond stronger than they realize. As
avowed enemies and predestined mates, their quest ushers them into a world of
great danger, and a passion hotter than the dragon’s fire.

The colonists on Chorillan had secrets. Their mistake was hiding those secrets from the Scout Corps, especially when children were in danger.
The Present Era, Commonwealth Universe
Scout Captain Ian Fieran and his team are hunting Gen’gineers—genetic terrorists that decimate entire colonies in the name of “improving” the Human race. When the Scouts land on the planet Chorillan, they plunge into the midst of a deadly mystery. Children are vanishing into the wilderness, driven by a sudden sensory overload that strikes without any way of predicting who could be affected and when. The Azuli, mysterious, sentient creatures, are targeted for destruction. But are they friends, helping the children through the disease of Phase, or enemies, luring innocents away to their death?
Miranda Riallon, the daughter of a politically powerful family and a teacher, has been researching Phase, hoping for a cure. But will her discoveries come in time to help Ranny—the orphan she loves and hopes to adopt? And her own brother, who is missing?
When Ian and Miranda join forces on a desperate mission to unravel the mystery, they discover more than just a common cause to bind their hearts.
She was trained to be a hero among the active-duty Scouts.
It’s all she knows. But will it be enough to finally bring
justice and rescue for the Wildings on Chorillan?
The Present Era, Commonwealth Universe
For moons, the Azuli have been warning the Wildling outposts that danger is approaching. Now the outposts have completely vanished, and Scout Captain Ian Feiran can’t find any clue as to their whereabouts. He suspects officials in the Chorillan government—or even his wife’s wealthy brother and mother—of fueling the rising prejudice and hatred against the Wildings.
But the stakes are ratcheted even higher when his daughter, Kay’li, is at the right age to go through the pain and confusion of Phase…and risk becoming a Wildling. If he leaves Chorillan to save his daughter, everything he and his wife, Miranda, have worked so hard to establish will fail. Hundreds of Wildings might die every generation.
What Captain Fieran doesn’t count on is the passionate mission of a daughter, who is more like him than either of them could imagine.
Deadly secrets. A Scout Corps’ mission. Passion and justice.
Fall into the world of the Chorillan Cycle.
