Audiobook news!

I have four, count ’em, FOUR series coming out in audiobook over the next couple of years! Bodyguard Shifters, Westerly Cove, Bears of Pinerock County, and Fated Mountain Lodge have all been signed to be produced in audio.

I’m incredibly excited to finally have some of my books available in audio, and I look forward to keeping you updated as more details are available!

Website updated – here’s what’s new!

My website update is done, much sooner than expected! I decided not to completely overhaul the general look of the site, because frankly, I couldn’t find a site layout/theme that I liked better than the one I’m using now.

What’s new?

  • There is now a printable book checklist with all my books arranged by series.
  • New & Upcoming page shows you what was just released, my last couple of releases, and whatever is currently up for preorder. I will also add information on in-person events when I have anything upcoming.
  • The FAQ has been updated to answer the question of what I’m currently working on.
  • The Books page should be up to date and also includes a link to the printable checklist.
  • The front page of the site now shows blog entries, so you’ll see the latest news as soon as you arrive.
  • Updated the sidebar, mailing list signup, and “about me” page, so that everything is current.

What’s upcoming?

Other things I’m planning to add later (but they’re less important):

  • A series timeline for Bodyguard Shifters, similar to the one I already have for Shifter Agents (linked from the Extras page).
  • Some sort of landing page or list of the side stories and freebies. That’s currently on hold because I need to figure out what all I have first, what’s in KU and what can be put up elsewhere, etc.
  • Some other things I’m thinking about adding include an archive of my older mailing list posts, landing pages for each series, and more.

You can subscribe to my site to get an email when I post something new!

Announcing Dragon’s Luck, Shifter Agents #3!

Okay, so technically it came out last week – I updated everywhere but here, but I forgot to add it to the website!

Dragon's-Luck-cover-300px

Dragon’s Luck is the third book in the Shifter Agents series. No knowledge of the previous books is needed to read this one.

Gecko shifter and infiltration expert Jen Cho teams up with sexy dragon-shifter gambler “Lucky” Lucado to win a high-stakes poker game. Now they’re trapped on a cruise ship full of mobsters, mysterious enemy agents, and evil dragons, and it’ll take all their wits and luck to get out of this alive!

Advance Reader Copies

I am finally putting together an ARC team! ARC means Advance Reader Copies, and if you are interested, you can get free ebook copies of my books 1-3 days before they are released, in return for an honest review on Amazon (and probably Goodreads soon, but right now Amazon is the only place I’m sure about).

If you’d like to sign up, please click this link to go to the form: http://eepurl.com/bZR6aD

This is separate from my regular mailing list. You can be on one, both, or neither, as you like. If you’re on the ARC team, I will send you two emails for every book release: the first will have instructions and download links for the ebook, and the second (after the book is released) will have links where you can leave your review.

Also, I know my books are long, so it’s totally fine if you don’t get a review up for a couple of weeks. I know some ARC teams have a very tight deadline, but I’m a long-winded author so I won’t do that to you. ;P

Lauren has a website!

Hello, and welcome to the all-new LaurenEsker.com, v. 1.0!

I will be updating my Facebook page more frequently than this site, with pictures and chatty bits of news as I work on my books. But I needed a website as a place to put things like preview chapters and free short stories, since Facebook really isn’t good for reading long blocks of text. And I figured I was going to need a central location for information on my books — less important now, since I only have two of them so far, but I have more in the works.
