In this post: cover reveal and a GIVEAWAY!! Covert operative Kazi Faron is tasked with reassembling Nightshade—the black ops team someone dissected. Breaking Griffin out of a federal penitentiary amid explosive confusion may turn out to be her last assignment. What will it take to convince the fugitive that whoever set him up has also dissected the Nightshade team?
I am super excited to share this cover with you for FIRETHORN, Discarded Heroes #4! The design team really captured Griffin and even Kazi on this one. They are the closest to the actual characters in the book of all the covers. I will be sending Firethorn in to my editor soon, and it's been one of the hardest stories I've ever written. And I'm a little blown away that this is the fifth book that I've written for a publisher (my twenty-somethingth all together).
So, there's a giveaway...but ya gotta read all the "fine print" first--that is, read the full post! :-D
ISBN: 978-1-60260-785-9
Dismantled and blown,
Nightshade is ready to repay the favor.
Here's a short blurb for this final installment:Former Marine and current Nightshade team member Griffin Riddell is comfortable. So comfortable he never sees the set up that lands him in a maximum security prison, charged with murder. How will he ever prove his innocence stuck behind iron bars?
A drawing will be held next Friday (4/22) and one lucky winner will receive: Nightshade 
Grab your gear and join the mission to save Nightshade.
Will anyone make it out alive?
Wow, Ronie....wow. What an author you are, and what a gift you've given to our military heroes. Showing them they are NOT discarded, but beloved and honored. And what a gift you've given readers everywhere. You are a writer extraordinaire!! My blog is at your service...just say the word.
Scuttlebutt has it that you will be honoring Tea & Tales Book Club at Holly Lake Ranch with a visit next month. We are very excited and looking forward to meeting you!

I have to agree, the hero is cute!!
I went to the bookstore tonight and I went and searched out your books. I held Nightshade in my hands and I was so proud of you I almost cried. Keep up the good work!

Love the cover, Ronie! Your publisher did an excellent job on it. And your story sounds fabulous.
Congrats on all of your success, Ronie. Remember when we were still struggling, hoping, and praying we would get published. It finally happened for both of us. God is sooooooo good! No, make that fabulous!
Firethorn is a very SHARP cover as well as intriguing. I have loved all the covers of your books, and the stories inside more then back up the gorgeous covers.
I'm impatiently waiting for the next installments and will be sorry to see this series end, but am also excited about the new series you're working on. Thank you for sharing your creativeness and patriotism with us. Your books are on my "permanent-will-be-re-read shelves"!
Your fan since reading Dead Reckoning,
