My book is a finalist!

RomCon is a pretty darn big convention of romance writers and readers, so I figured it was worth entering Persephone's Orchard in their annual contest--and am now delighted that it's been announced as a 2014 Readers' Crown Finalist in the paranormal category!

All the sub-genres have fairly long lists of finalists, and paranormal is no exception, but I'm still stoked to have made it into the company of these fine writers. Here are all the finalist titles for the paranormal category, in case you'd like to look a few up for fun summer reading:
