✧ ALERT ✧ Title Change ✧
Call me crazy, but I'm changing the title of "Toppling the King" to "Dethroning the Tyrant"
The reason for the change is because I have a memory comparable to a rock. I had forgotten that the son of two of the characters is named Kian and he is frequently called 'King' throughout his book. Last week, I pulled Kian's book out of the Scrivener dust pile to get it ready for publishing and gasped in horror. (Well, horror is a bit extreme.) Actually, I just threw an f-bomb out there then debated on new titles for book three.
✧
Kian's book will be 4th in the Sardensky series. I didn't even think about Kian's nickname when creating the title of the third book because it's been so many years since I'd worked on Kian's book.
Note: I'm still not 100% that I'm going to publish Kian's book because it's got a LOT of spice and I may have to tone it down. (Wrote a lot of it while pregnant so my hormones were typing for me.) But I have seen spice much hotter than this book out there in the WattPad universe, so *insert shrug here* we shall see.
This is why I love WattPad so much; I can make changes whenever I want to without many repercussions.
✧
Anyway, just wanted to let you know about the change.
But then, is anyone even reading these posts? *insert another shrug and a laughing emoji* There are TWO of you that I know for sure read them, and I appreciate you so so so much!
Have a fabulous Sunday everyone!
Hugs and love to ALL of you!!! Even the friends that don't read this. *insert hundreds of heart emojis in all shapes and colors here* Love all around!

Oh wow. That post was really long.
Sorry about that! (Haven't finished drinking my first cup of coffee yet.)
Anyway, here's a little bit about Kian's book (the working title is 'Orchid and King' but the final title will probably be 'Staging the Orchid' not sure though. Let me know if you have any ideas for me. https://www.wattpad.com/1607459881-jacquie-kaye%27s-reading-room-orchid-and-king

Devil of the Rising Sun will be officially C.O.M.P.L.E.T.E. on Friday, August 28!
I wrote this book many years ago but updated and edited it this past year to publish here on WattPad. It's based on the song 'House of the Rising Sun'.
(Note: There are spicy scenes and some violence, so read at your own risk.)
Have a great weekend!

Hello readers and fellow authors!
I hope you're having a fabulous weekend!
I'm basking in the Florida sunshine. Or should I say 'baking'? (Ready to fly back to New York as soon as possible. Though NYC rain is forecast for today.)
Good News! The forecast for Athens, Greece looks delightful! Which is perfect, since my characters in 'Toppling the King' have arrived there today.
Since I had a few hours of available time (rare moment) in the wee hours of this beautiful morning, I published new chapters for two of my works in progress.
• 'We Wait' in King of the Quarry - told from the POV of 8-year-old Tursh, nephew to the Emperor as he arrives at Dynasty Centre.
• 'Arrival in Greece' in Toppling the King - told from the POV of our four main characters.
Enjoy!
Hugs and Love to you!

Hello readers!
I published the first chapter of ‘Toppling the King’ today!
Spoiler: That rotten villain (their father) is finally going to be destroyed in this book.
Be sure to read ‘Taming the Rogue’ and ‘Releasing the Genie’ before you read ‘Toppling the King’.
Have a fabulous day!

Hello dear author
I wish and hope
That your story has a happy ending for Rogue and Santo
And also for Regina and Gavin.

How sweet of you to mention it!
Yes! The third book in the series (Toppling the King) will feature POVs from Rogue, Genie, Monsanto, and Gavin. And YES! There will be a happy ending.
I have also written two novels from the viewpoint of their children. Kian (Genie and Gavin’s son) will have his own book (fully written) and Anton (Rogue and Monsanto’s son) is halfway written.
Thank you so much for reading their stories! It means the world to me.

Happy Wednesday to my Beautiful Authors and Readers!
'Releasing the Genie' has been fully published and I finally clicked the 'Complete' button this morning.
[*insert celebratory happy dance here]
While Releasing the Genie had been written years and years ago, it has been edited and torn apart more times than I could count.
I will be posting chapters for the third and final novel in the series, 'Toppling the King' soon. The banter and inner thoughts of the characters in 'Toppling the King' have me cackling with laughter. I can't wait until you start reading it!
Happy Completion of 'Releasing the Genie' Day!

I lied to you all! Sorry!
My last chapter of 'Releasing the Genie' won't be published tomorrow as per my announcement.
I didn't like the way it ended and flows into the third book in the series, so I'm making some changes. Hopefully I'll get it worked out by next week.
My sincerest apologies!
In the meantime, I hope you take a look at some of my other books.
Hugs!

Hello readers and writers!
I hope you’re having a grand Saturday.
This summer has been exceptionally busy for me, and I’m absolutely here for it.
Treasure each day as a gift, my friends. Find the joy in the little things.
It’s hard to believe that I’m nearing the end of ‘Releasing the Genie’. Only four more chapters! The final chapter is scheduled to post next Saturday (July 25) at 5:00 PM New York time.
I have the third novel ‘Toppling the King’ nearly fully written, but I’d like to do more editing before publishing it.
In the meantime, be sure to check out my other novels.
I’ve submitted ‘Taming the Rogue’ and ‘One Less Tear to Cry’ to the Wattys. I’m not much of a ‘contest’ person (accolades are not my thing). But I figured I’d throw my hat into the ring and see what happens.
Several of my novels are scheduled to publish regularly.
‘Devil of the Rising Sun’ - new chapters every Friday. The novel is completed and the last chapter is scheduled for Friday, August 28.
‘Bitter Berry Ranch’ - not complete yet. Kind of a work in progress. But I have chapters scheduled to publish every Friday for the next few months.
‘Marley and The Barrington Brothers’ is also a completed novel, but I’m struggling with the books that follow it, so that’s going to be a slow release.
‘Empress of the Moon’ is a ginormous saga that may never end. (Just call me George RR Martin - lol). I have most of it written but I only publish a few chapters here or there. The companion novel (King of the Quarry, told from the male character’s point of view) is also a work in progress. I really love that one. The plot and banter are chef’s kiss.
Please make haste to enjoy your day!
Thank you for your votes, comments, and reads. Every one is very much appreciated!
Hugs and Love!
~JK~
