What a Surprise!
When I typed in BDSM Auction in Amazon, I was sure I would find a book that started off well and then deteriorated. What a pleasant surprise The Trafficking Consortium turned out to be!
I have totally neglected the things I should have done today because I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait to read Perfect Prey. When will it be available? Thank you for delivering an excellent read from cover to cover.

Well worth the read
I know it says this is a stand-alone but I do hope there is a sequel. This book was a very disturbing read that played havoc with my emotions.
I found myself hating all the members of the Consortium. It definitely takes you to some dark places and messes with your mind. Somehow I was left with the hope that Avril would take revenge on The Consortium at the end, but at the same time, it was left unclear, leaving me with the feeling that she was content with her situation as it turned out.
Well worth the read, but not for the faint of heart.Marsa, 7/17/2017

I truly am excited to get my hands on Book 8 of the Consortium. Depending on how the book goes (like the thoughts in my head) I LOVE the title! I think it will be perfect. Please keep updating on the “print” date.
Thank you, for all you have been going through, to be able to write another book….THANK YOU!!!

Hi Richard,
I read the 6 books in the Consortium Series and really liked them. As soon as I finished one, I was on Amazon purchasing my kindle-version of the next one. I’m very glad to read on your site that you will be working on book 7 as there are so many intriguing story lines from the first 6 books that I was disappointed to find unresolved – especially as it seemed book 6 was the final of the series. I don’t see a book 7 on Amazon yet, so I hope you are still working on it. I’ll keep watching for it to be released and purchase it just as soon as I see it. Cheers!

I’m very happy you enjoyed the Consortium books so far. I’m happy to say that Book 7 and a prequel story before Book 1 are in the works. If you read my blogs over the past year, my life is twisted right now, making working on my writing very difficult. The good news is that I’m figuring things out and am starting to make progress. I expect the prequel story will be out before Book 7. Hopefully, both will be out by the holidays. Thank you for your support. I appreciate it.
