Fire Wolf, Book 1 of the Hunters of Evil paranormal fantasy series, is at my editors. Since she is working with other clients, she must delay her critiquing and editing until the end of December. Because she involves her authors in the process, it takes four months to complete the project. The expected publication date is April 2023.
Clandestine hunters Rayne Parker and her partner Liam are experts at killing the supernatural. But when they’re tasked with taking down the infamous demon Marchosias, the Marquis of Hell, the pair must travel back in time to the moment when he’s at his weakest. There’s only one catch: they’ll both lose their memories. Due to circumstances the director and ancient witch cannot divulge information concerning the reason for such a drastic measure.
With no other choice, Rayne and Liam are catapulted into 1990s America, where they have one chance to kill the demon lord before it’s too late. Struggling to remember their mission and dragged into a dangerous cat-and-mouse game with life-threatening consequences, Rayne and Liam must unravel the secrets behind Marchosias and learn how they can destroy him.
But killing the Marquis of Hell is no easy task. Rayne is desperate not to put her loved ones in danger, but it may already be too late. The fate of the world is in her hands – and if she succeeds and stops him, it may cost Rayne her life.
As a dark and thrilling urban fantasy novel that draws on real-life demonology from the 1500s, the first book in the Hunters of Evil series is an action-packed supernatural thrill ride that’s perfect for fans of authors including Andrzej Sapkowski and Jim Butcher.
Author Stephanie Colbert recounts the true story of the horror she endured after waking up from a coma. The vivid nightmares, delusions, paranoia, and other psychotic episodes left her trapped in a world that threatened her sanity
Even though Stephanie didn’t know her husband, Quinton, and accused him of being an imposter, he stayed by her bedside every waking moment as he struggled to help her find her way back to reality. It was the toughest battle he’d ever fought, as he feared he’d lost his beloved wife forever.
Someone plagiarized this novella in its entirety in paperback format. I published an ebook. Even the title remained the same, but he added a subtitle. After a lengthy, tiring battle with Amazon, they removed the paperback and banned the person.
Three private investigators meet in colorful, eccentric New Orleans and join forces as they try to stop a sadistic killer, whose victims all die after being stabbed through the heart. Why romance novelists? Has the killer been hurt by someone he loved?
They must stop this madman before he strikes again! But are they willing to risk their own lives to do so?
I wrote this novella with two other authors, Schuyler Pulliam and Rebecka Jäger. I met them at an on-line workshop, and we hit it off. It was a fantastic experience. Rebecka became my critique partner and dear friend.
Rayne faces her biggest challenge when Liam disappears before her eyes. The only one that can help her rescue Liam is a legendary hunter who doesn’t want to be found.
When someone asks Stephanie where she is from, she replies,
“Everywhere and nowhere.” She credits her nomadic childhood
for her ability to write in many genres.

Stephanie opens her soul to the world by telling of her Covid-19 recovery experience. She was in a coma for 18 days, and her family thought the worst was over when she woke up, but even worse was yet to come. Stephanie didn't recognize her husband of over thirty years. She had nightmarish experiences that felt real to her at the time. I'm grateful that Stephanie recovered and is well enough to share her story with the world.
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2021 Most are familiar with the havoc that this virus reeks on the body but this book is a disturbing look at the impact COVID-19 has on the brain. Those recovering from the virus have a long road of physical recovery but we don't know the long term impacts this has, including the mental and emotional toll it takes on all those impacted. It can be difficult to stomach the hell the author went through while hospitalized but thankfully she was able to tell her tale. Helpful Report abuse
Verified Purchase Splintered Reality is far more than a true-life story. From the first page, I was caught up in a roller-coaster of emotions. The ups and downs, twists and turns, powerfully entice you into the frightening world of psychosis where you are presented with a bizarre barrage of non-sensical questions that were followed by answers that seemed all too easy. It is difficult to make sense of how traumatic it must have been. And on the other hand, this book also beautifully demonstrates just how important love is, how a partner can be truly dedicated, always ready to lend a hand or a word of comfort. When I had finished, I felt like a sponge that had been well and truly wrung out, and it left me asking the question? How can the human spirit possibly survive such an ordeal? Splintered Reality is a book of discovery in the best possible sense. Thank you for sharing such a personal journey on your road to recovery. Everyone needs to read it.
A very good book, I enjoyed it a lot. The relationship between Stephanie and her husband, even in moments of despair, is one of the best parts. A sweet picture of what true love is like in real life. Also, the dissociation, the fear, and the doubt sometimes made me feel like they were living inside some horror movie. Knowing that this is a true story amazes me.
This is a great read with great detail. Without spoilers, I will just say that the three writers did a great job. It’s difficult telling a story from three viewpoints. Weaving the plot lines together was skillfully done. The three individuals were written with precise detail that didn’t detract from the enjoyment of the story. The story also has some great humor and I would love a series with our protagonists again. At the end, there is a spectacular twist which left my heart pounding. I highly recommend Romance Kills!
