The first,&nbsp;<em>Sex and Candy<\/em>, is a short story set in a club called Hard Candy. I wrote a prequel,&nbsp;<em>Candy Rain<\/em>, to accompany this story, and the collection will be available March 28th! :D The set will&nbsp;include both the original short story and the prequel, which shows how&nbsp;the MCs met in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>You can get all the details, &nbsp;plus the preorder links, on the book&#8217;s page here:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/index.php\/books-2\/sex-and-candy\/\">Sex and Candy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The second story that I&#8217;ll be rereleasing is&nbsp;<em>Into the Deep<\/em>, which was originally included in the&nbsp;<em>Goi<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Into-the-Deep-Final-Cover-New-Edition.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-239\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-239 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Into-the-Deep-Final-Cover-New-Edition-642x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Into the Deep - Final Cover (New Edition)\" width=\"100\" height=\"160\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Into-the-Deep-Final-Cover-New-Edition-642x1024.jpg 642w, http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Into-the-Deep-Final-Cover-New-Edition-188x300.jpg 188w, http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Into-the-Deep-Final-Cover-New-Edition-768x1226.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Into-the-Deep-Final-Cover-New-Edition.jpg 1410w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>ng for Gold<\/em> anthology. This story is pretty special to me because it was my first time being published. It definitely holds good memories, and I do hope you all enjoy it. I&#8217;ve always been a huge fan of London and have traveled there many times, so I had a great time visiting the city in my story, which is set during the 2012 London Olympic games.<\/p>\n<p>I anticipate releasing this story in May, but who knows? I just might surprise y&#8217;all with an early one. ;) You can get all the details on the story here:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/index.php\/books-2\/into-the-deep\/\">Into the Deep<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Also, as a bonus for everyone who manages to find these blog posts, firstly KUDOS. YOU ARE AWESOME. And secondly, here&#8217;s a sneak peek of the cover. I still haven&#8217;t updated the book page, so you&#8217;re getting the first look at it. Isn&#8217;t it pretty? ;)<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, I&#8217;ve been writer&#8217;s caving a bit, working on a fantastic cowriting project with Cate Ashwood. We bonded when we collaborated with&nbsp;the&nbsp;<em>Heartsville<\/em>&nbsp;crew on that project&nbsp;and came up with another story idea that we&#8217;ve been cowriting over the last couple of months. It has been so much fun, and I really can&#8217;t wait for you guys to read it. If all goes well *crosses fingers*, it will be out for the holidays this year. :)<\/p>\n<p>I also have started writing the long-percolating sequels to&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nicojaye.com\/index.php\/books-2\/hes-just-knot-that-into-you\/\">He&#8217;s Just Knot That Into You<\/a>. I&#8217;ve known for at least a year what happens in this universe, but I just haven&#8217;t felt like writing shifters in a while. There&#8217;ll be an interlude story, in which I&#8217;ll introduce the next main character and also revisit with Tanner and Jon. Then there&#8217;ll be two full stories after the interlude. I&#8217;m crossing my fingers there are readers who are still interested in these shifters. :) In my head, the series is called Knot My Type.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, that&#8217;s it on my end. I have a feeling these blog posts are a little hidden, so we&#8217;ll see who finds this one. I&nbsp;<em>think<\/em> there&#8217;s a way to set up the blog to post directly to the Blog tab on my website, but um&#8230;.*sheepish look* I&#8217;m not tech savvy or patient enough to figure it out. *hides*<\/p>\n<p>Hope everyone is doing well and having a fabulous year so far.
