It's Release Day! Bound to a Devil is LIVE.


We've finally made it to the big day. A release day takes far more time than just the day. There are months (sometimes years) of work leading up to the big day. And it's always worth it when the book is finally handing out to the public. I love these moments!

Bound to a Devil is the first book in the Devil Family Series. I had a lot of fun writing this story and can't wait to jump into the next book. In the meantime, if you preordered your own copy, it should already be waiting for you in your eReader. If you haven't, go pick up your copy at whichever is your favorite retailer. :)

Carina is a half-breed angel being educated in all manners of becoming a proper angel, is plagued by nightmares of her own murder every time she closes her eyes. She does anything she can think of to cloud the dreams and get some rest, including going to Earth and partaking in all the human drugs and alcohol to dull her senses.


When her leader discovers the treachery, he sends Carina with the yearly Angel Delegation to Hell, though she isn’t actually assigned to be one of the delegates. Instead, he’s condemned her to become the official concubine to Devon Devil, the middle son of THE DEVIL.

Devon Devil is a bachelor, enjoying the limitless rewards his last name carries. A different creature (or two) in his bed every night, and always gone the next morning. Drinking, drugs, carousing with his demons. What more could a single Devil ask for? He certainly doesn’t want a concubine mucking up his playtime and slowing him down. And now his father is shoving the family business down his throat too! He has two older brothers in line for the throne before him. Why should he worry about it now? And how can he get rid of that meek angel they’re trying to thrust upon him?

A war is coming, and it’s sooner than anyone thinks. A demon lord hasn’t bothered hiding his desires to hold the Devil’s throne. He’ll do everything in his power to take control, and that includes snatching Carina from Devon’s grasp. Only he knows she’s the daughter of the most powerful angel soldier in history. Unbeknownst to her, she holds more strength than she ever knew. Malvis wants to control that power, and he intends to use it to ensure victory over the Devil family.

The big day is right around the corner!

Happy Friday, everyone. This has been a long, difficult week around here, but with the end here I have a moment to breathe and share some good news with all of you.

Monday, March 29, 2021, is the day Death Comes to Us All (Liz Baker, book 8) releases! I'm so excited about this release, yet again, I get excited for all my book releases. Those moments allow me a sigh of relief. Whew! Another project done and out into the world. πŸ˜€ 

I was just telling the hubby it took me a moment to realize this is my 17th book. Wow! There are many authors out there with far more books than me, but that doesn't take away from the sense of accomplishment I felt when I realized it. 

With all that said, even after all these years and 17 projects, I still get hit with the nerves when it grows closer to a release day. Did I do the story justice? Will anyone like it? How many people will hate it? Did I give too much detail, not enough detail, show or tell? The list goes on and on until I overwhelm myself and have to take a deep breath. It's that moment I do the one thing I do every single time this happens.

I say, "F*ck it!" πŸ˜‚

There will always be people who hate it. I say, "The story wasn't for them." I told the story the way I always tell my stories. The characters don't hate me, so that's a plus. The book already has pre-orders, and considering it's book 8, those people know what they're in for. LOL! No turning back now!

That makes me feel better. This isn't a brand new series (though I do the same talk-up for those, as well), so readers are already well-established and know the characters, making everything a little easier on me.

In the meantime, I wanted to share all the purchase links with you. The book is on pre-order for $0.99, and will stay at that price until April 3rd. After that, the price increases to $2.99. If you're interested in this book, you can save some $$ by pre-ordering it, or buying during release week.




The book will be picked up by more stores soon, and I'll post as soon as the paperbacks are available (those take a little longer). Honestly, I can't wait to get my hands on this beauty. The cover is stunning.

If you're new to the Liz Baker series, book 1 is always FREE by visiting my website http://www.christiesilvers.com and signing up for my newsletter. It's also free on a few retailers, like Apple Books. I'm still working on getting the other sites to cooperate and reduce the price to free.

In the meantime, I'm off to play with the grandbaby and just breathe before getting started on book 9.

Happy New Year! It's cover reveal time!



Isn't she lovely? I fell head-over-heels for this cover the moment I saw it. It's beautiful! I used the same cover designer as the entire series and after all these years she has amazed me yet again. This is actually #2 out of 3 designs because she wanted to get it just right. Even after the 3rd one I told her I just couldn't pass up this one. I love it!

Next up will be the release date announcement. I'm hoping to let you all know about it in a couple of weeks, after I get everything in order, so be on the lookout for that one. :)

Best wishes and a Happy New Year to you all! I hope 2021 brings you peace, happiness, health, and love. Fingers crossed for a better year than 2020 provided. Love and hugs to everyone!

Finders Keepers

An Almost Gothic Love Affair

Sometimes it takes a wrong turn to get you to the right place.



A bride is sent off into the unknown to marry a stranger on All Hallows Eve, October 31, 1749. What she finds on her arrival is enough to make her skin crawl.
Limping footsteps, blood-curdling screams, smoking torches, and a house on a cliff... A man she only sees in the dark, his breathing labored behind a mask.
“A betrothal is as good as the wedding vows. You cannot leave.”
“Am I your prisoner?” 
"You shall stay here until you bear me a child. Then you
can stay or go, the choice shall be mine!"





The how and why behind Finders Keepers

Finders Keepers was my contribution to the Soul's Day Boxset, which released on October 20th, 2020. The Boxset achieved No 1 bestseller status on Amazon. After running its course, it has now been disbanded, and the rights reverted to the authors. I thought 22 December 2020 a good date for a relaunch, after another round of edits, and sporting a new cover. The old one is on the left.

Then the Boxset came up. I sat down with all my notes for Darkest Midnight. It didn't take much to change the theme from Christmas to Halloween, and so Finders Keepers came about.


About me

I am an international bestselling author of spooky paranormal romance. The ghost stories had not been planned - I wanted to write an ordinary romance - you know the kind - boy meets girl, they fall in love, then boy loses girl and wants her back, bla bla bla. But that was not to be. Before I knew it, there was a persistent ghost on the page. But if he wanted to be part of my story, he was going to have to work for it, so I gave him a job.

The trick is to combine things that can't be explained, sweaty bodies and
rumpled beds in a way that will make the reader's toes curl and hair stand on end.


The Other Me

I love cooking - being married to a chef, the passion for food must have rubbed off. The result is that I am nearly as passionate about creating new dishes as I am about creating alpha heroes for every woman to fall in love with, just like I do, every time.


My Cats

And I love cats. At one time, I had eleven! Now my husband, Gareth, and I have only two as we're living in an apartment. The black and white cat, Thom, was a Tuxedo cat, but he was killed by a car. His sister, pure black - unfortunately I don't have a picture of her handy - is called Nightshade. Get it? The tabby is my baby, 14 years old, called Felix.


How I became a Bestseller

I have several books published, but my WIP pile is growing instead of getting smaller. Sometimes I worry that I won't have enough time to publish them all.

All my books feature ghosts, and they have varying levels of heat. There is the Bridesmaids, Weddings and Honeymoons series, 3 out of 5 published so far. Then there is the Moragh Saga trilogy. The first 2 books are out, and the last and final one coming mid-2021. Roxanne's Ghost duology is a complex ghost story of identical twin sisters' love for the same man. Have a look here:
