But there's so much more...Cindy wrote a number of novellas and a full length novel, all published by Dreamspinner Press. While we celebrate Cindy's success with Love Aggression, I think it's important to revisit those other books too. As luck would have it, today is the final day of Dreamspinner's Celebrate Community sale, so you can pick any of these up from Dreamspinner for 30% off if you buy them today (after you've picked up Love Aggression, of course). All are romances of various flavors. Wrapped Up in Chains (BDSM) Cindy's full length novel is an easy entry for readers interested in BDSM. Centering on dom Devon West, the story covers his efforts to bring Chase into the community of safety and consent that the young sub has never known. Terrifying and poignant, I found myself rooting for Chase all the way through. Hunt and Pray (Suspense/Thriller) I love this one for the cover, which isn't typical of the genre. But the story hooks you and keeps you terrified, wondering all the while if Drew can escape his predicament, at the mercy of a madman and the son Chance that is his only hope to survive on the run. Luck of the Irish (Sweet and Sexy) Cian owns me in this one. I confess, I got to read it as Cindy was writing it, and I will say she stopped in some places that made me just want to scream. But I loved these two men together. I wanted to borrow them, either one—both! Setting and character made this one a win for me. Other Stories Cindy also dipped her hand in cowboy stories with Cowboy Way and has a strong contemporary (translated into four languages) with All the Things I Didn't See.

Ty has lived without love. Now he’s ready to protect the purest love of all—his son. I'm so happy to be here to talk to you about Love Aggression today, on release day! Cindy Sutherland has given us a wonderful story, full of suspense and wonder and romance. It's a shifter story, a werewolf story, a story about family and the struggle to find romance when you're afraid and on the run. Ty's little son, Jesse, will steal your heart and run with it at times and you'll wonder if you're supposed to be paying more attention to him or to the romance. But that's part of what makes it great, because Ty can't have a romance without acknowledging Jesse, and the central truth that keeping Jesse safe is the most important thing to him right now—even over his own heart. There's a lot that's gone into this story. It's hard for me, sometimes, as an editor, because I read the early drafts and I remember things that aren't part of the story for the reader anymore. But I've also read the final cover-to-cover three times since the final edit. As an editor, I'm terrified because you always miss things, and I know they're in there, waiting for me to find and chastise myself over. But for me, getting the input from proofs, hearing about what readers wanted more of, hearing that they liked it, just affirmed for me that I'd made the right choice. I've been told in no uncertain terms that we need a sequel for Woof, and I have to tell you, I hope Cindy is up for that, because I'd love to see it. Enjoy the story.
