Hello, Readers and Friends!
This is a very special update to tell you about Entangled, a Paranormal Anthology!
I'm so excited to be part of this project with my short story "Medium Rare," partly because 100% of the proceeds go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF)!
"Medium Rare" is not a Cesca story, but it is a peek at a brand new series I'm writing!
Of course, the roster of anthology authors is amazing! See below for more details, check my website for info, and please support our cause by buying a book if you can! The e-book is available in all formats at Amazon, B&N, Smashwords, and other online retailers. The price will be $2.99 through October, $3.99 thereafter. It won't be on the e-shelves forever, so get your copy soon!

From the Press Release
Eleven authors have banded together to support breast cancer research with their writing. Authors4theCure, which includes award-winning and New York Times bestselling authors, as well as two breast cancer survivors, is donating proceeds from the sale of their paranormal anthology, Entangled, to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF).
BCRF-funded research has helped save lives and improved the quality of care and rate of survival for tens of thousands of breast cancer patients in the past decade. Their research has revealed that the "cure" is a mosaic made up of as many approaches to diagnosing, treating, preventing and surviving as there are different types of breast cancer. The anthology is also a mosaic made up of many stories donated for this worthwhile cause.
Entangled includes ten suspense-filled paranormal stories from authors Lori Brighton, Michelle Diener, Cynthia Eden, Jennifer Estep, Misty Evans, Nancy Haddock, Liz Kreger, Dale Mayer, Michelle Miles, and Edie Ramer, plus a novella by Allison Brennan. Stacia Kane contributed the foreword. Cover art and formatting were also donated to the project by Laura Morrigan and Lori Devoti.
