Idols and Enemies (Amplifier 4) is one week and one day old! Yay!! Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to read, review, and share. It is so, so appreciated (and helps with visibility). I’ve pulled back from email/social media a bit to make more time for writing new words, so I’ve been a little quiet, but next weekend is my birthday! And, as you probably already know, that means a lot of random, flash giveaways will be happening (usually over on my Facebook page)!!!

Kader transferred his smile to me. “Just magnificent. Though I wouldn’t expect anything less from you, amplifier.” 

“You don’t know me well enough to make that assessment, sorcerer.” 

“No?” He arched an eyebrow. 

The expression was disconcertingly reminiscent of Aiden’s. I’d seen a disturbing echo of the sorcerer I loved in his brother’s face as well. Thankfully, the feeling of familiarity quickly faded, because I was already feeling off. I wasn’t remotely acting how I’d assumed I would react to meeting one of my makers  — specifically, with my blades in hand and that maker’s life blood marking their edges just moments afterward. 

“I suppose not,” Kader said despite my silence. “It has been over eight years.” 

He hadn’t noticed that I’d just been trying to decide when I was going to murder him. 

When. 

Not if.

Of that, I had no doubt.

  1. Almost finished with the book! I love that there are so many avenues and stories that can be told by all of the characters. That’s what I love about your writing. The depth of the characters. Well, and also tons of other stuff too, lol! Thank you for writing. Looking forward to your new creations. 😊
