The End and The Beginning

by

Today is the release of the third and final book in the Baal's Heart Trilogy, Fated: Blood and Redemption. How do I feel about it?

I feel good. Excuse me for a moment while I give myself a little pat on the back. I love the story, I love how everything worked like I was hoping for, I love the cover (I mean  look at it... isn't it nice?). I did good. Yay me! :)

I'd like to thank everyone who has been with me on this crazy, amazing adventure. I couldn't have done it without the friendship and support of my fans and friends. Look, guys! We made it!

Baltsaros, Tom, Jon would also like to thank you for being there to share in the voyage.

Captain Baltsaros, Tom, and Jon stand on the stage as the curtain lifts. Jon turns his head and smiles a little self-consciously at the man to either side of him. Baltsaros returns the smile with a little head nod, and Tom winks with a cheeky grin. The three of them link hands, face the audience and smile wide at all the fond hearts that followed their journey, who shared their laughter and tears, their passion and pain. As one, the three take a deep bow, and as they straighten, they unclasp hands and press their palms to their hearts.

"Thank you."

Now... is it the end? Certainly not. It's the end of this journey, but it's not the end of the story.  There's more left to be told. When? I don't know. Let's see how long I can stay off the ship *grins*.

Release day for Fated is going wonderfully. So much is going on! There are blog reviews up in so many places. You can find guest posts that I did for the release as well as interviews with both me and the pirates here. If you're looking to listen to the soundtracks or learn more about the world where Baal's Heart sails, you can go on over to baals-heart.com to check out the soundtracks for the trilogy, learn some pirate lingo, peruse the maps, see details about the ship and specifics about the fictional world.

Want a chance to win the books? There's a giveaway of an ecopy of Caged over at The Blogger Girls and a giveaway of the trilogy over at Sinfully... Addicted to All Male Romance.

And finally, be sure to join me on Facebook for a chat hosted by Bike Book Reviews tonight, April 11 @ 8pm EST.

Bring some drinks and be merry!

Amazing review of Sacrificed by Monique and Macky at Sinfully…

by

Macky says:

"Let's just admit it, we're hooked on these bloody pirates and everything about their vivid, exciting, adventurous existence. Sacrificed didn't disappoint us one bit, in fact it exceeded our expectations. I loved how Bey cleverly used flashbacks to follow on exactly from where Caged ended. By using teasing hints of what happened between the trio six weeks after they were reunited, it set the tone of the story to come perfectly. Talk about intriguing. There's no doubt, Bey is the king of keeping you tantalized and enticed. Once again it was a matter of love at first sentence!"

Sacrificed: Heart Beyond the Spires (Review & Excerpt) at The Smutsonian

by

Shurrn from The Smutsonian says:

"I loved the first book, Caged: Love and Treachery on the High Seas, and I was jumping at the chance to continue series… I was completely blown away by this follow-up. It’s quite possible that it was even better than the first, and that’s no small feat."

Guest Blog Post, Review, and a Giveaway at Sinfully…

I have to say that I am floored by this review. Absolutely floored. Thank you so much, Monique and Macky!

"Monique: Macky and I have no words for this series… we were both completely awestruck with the superb writing of Bey Deckard and blown away by the brilliant story line he so cleverly captivated us with. If you like a sexy pirate or two… well actually three, with an unconventional love story and adventure on the high seas, then this book is a MUST READ. Occasionally, we come across a book that totally outshines even those five star reads, or those that sit on our favourites shelf, because there is just something about them that sits head and shoulders above all else… and Caged is a shining example of just that. "

Fated: Blood and Redemption, Baal’s Heart III

by

Available for pre-order now at Amazon!

With the captain’s mind in shambles, Jon and Tom set out to find the passage home through the black mountain range, hoping to find a cure for Baltsaros’s madness. However, when the men are forced to part ways, darkness takes root in the schism created; fate, lust, and vengeance become obsessions threatening to tear apart the fragile bonds holding the three together.

Following on the heels of Sacrificed, Fated takes the pirates on a quest to find those responsible for the captain’s bloody beginnings. But can they survive what awaits them where past and present meet?

The Smutsonian Reviews Caged + Excerpt

by

Shurrn says:

This was beautifully detailed with an almost cinematic quality. It’s the kind of story which keeps you absolutely absorbed in the pages. This is a fabulous blend of adventure, romance, suspense, action, and erotica – it bends genres and keeps the reader on their toes.

Review, Interview, and Giveaway – Caged & Sacrificed featured at Carly’s Book Reviews

by

Carly says:

"Honestly, it was the amazing cover art that initially caught my eye, but the character dynamic is what kept me reading late into the night. Deckard has a unique writing style that utilizes varying points of view to slip back and forth along the timeline. This works brilliantly, and gives readers a global perspective."

Review, Excerpt, and Giveaway of Sarge at The Smutsonian

by

Shurrn says: "Sure, the alien planet might be unbearably hot, but the setting barely holds a candle to the heat being generated between our main characters…

You will not believe the amount of brilliance crammed into this little book – This short story combines so many amazing elements it will make your head spin – the fact that the author managed to write such a complex tale in a short amount of space while allowing for seamless continuity and perfect pacing is nothing short of astounding."

The Lone Fool’s Lament

by

If there was any doubt whether there exists a beating heart in this chest, the wretched pain you see in me from watching you fall in love should be enough to prove otherwise. Like a clumsy moth you beat against the meagre flame that is my soul and leave your dust inside me—it pollutes me.

You know... I can feel you.

Every motion, every eye blink and intake of breath turned into a game of mirrors with your shadow mimicking mine. Alas, when I look, chancing to catch those bright chameleon eyes, your head turns away.

It cannot be both. You are mine, or you are not.

I call myself too good to play this fucking game of yours, yet here I sit, the caustic fool putting pen to paper in the twisted parody of a love letter.

Oh, that my words were spikes I could drive deep to carve my name onto your bones. Instead, I dull their sharp edges on my own flesh and sit here a wounded thing, unable even to rail at the villainous treason of my own heart.

Wondering which retailer pays me the most?

#1 is Payhip. Not a retailer, but an online shop that I've set up myself. This is where I make the most return on my books.

Then after that it gets a little complicated, but these are the three best choices:

At Eden Books*, I make 70% royalties for all titles.

At Smashwords, I make 60% royalties for all titles.

At Amazon, for books OVER $2.99 (USD) I make 70% royalties and for books UNDER $2.99 I make 35%

So... if the book is under $2.99, buy from Eden Books or Smashwords.

If the books is over $2.99, buy from Eden Books or Amazon.

But best of all, buy from my Payhip store :)

Questions? Contact Me!

*Not all my titles are available at Eden yet as of 25/09/23 - I'm working on it.
