When I was getting ready to publish the Mannix Dragon Shifters bundle, I started thinking about the series and put together a few thoughts:

A few “Fun Facts” about the series

1.  I wrote the first scene in the series on October 17, 2014.

2.  I wrote the last scene in the series on September 9, 2018.

3.  Jasmine’s name was originally Jessica.

4.  Zale’s name was originally Jaxon.

5. In the first publication of Their Runaway Mate, Garryck and Ryder were known as Yannick and Rolynd. When I tried to write Snowbound at Solstice, however, the characters refused to accept those names… so they were renamed and Their Runaway Mate was subsequently corrected.

6.  All the heroines are named after plants. (I’m guessing that most people picked up on that.) I love gardening and plants and flowers, so it was like bringing all my loves together.

7.  There are over 220,000 words used over the five stories.

8.  Snowbound at Solstice was written specifically for inclusion in the multi-author holiday box set, Sugar, Spice and Shifters. That is why their story is more standalone than the others, although the books have all been written so they could be read independently.

9.  This series has sold copies all over the world including: Canada, Great Britain, Australia, Germany, Denmark, Indonesia, Ireland, South Korea, Netherlands, New Zealand, Philippines, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Brazil, Mexico, India, Japan, South Africa, and the United States.

10.  Montrose is named after the town in Scotland where my father’s family originated.

11.  The fictional Montrose is (very) loosely based on Banff, Alberta, while the human settlement areas are (very) loosely based on Calgary and the surrounding foothills.

12. I had the idea for the series after I participated in a Facebook event. Readers seemed especially interested in my contemporary MFM book (which is now retired) and my paranormal wolf series, so I thought “Hey, what if I combined MFM and paranormal?” And the rest, as they say, is history… 😉
