CellaNox’ debut novel, Out of the Flames, releases this week!
We are so delighted and proud that CellaNox joins BenMac as a published author who got their start here on LesFan!
The novel started at lesfan.comas a wildly popular Bette & Tina fanfic story. Many of you are very familiar with CellaNox’s fanfiction. She has taken those stories and is crafting them into a three-part Manhattan Sloane Series. Manhattan Sloane, the hot protagonist, is based on the Bette Porter character.The second book in the series will release December 2020. The third and final book will release Spring 2021.
The Manhattan Sloane Series
Set against the backdrop of present-day San Francisco’s drug world, you’ll meet police detective Manhattan Sloane who believes law and justice don’t always mean the same thing. This romantic thriller series will make you feel the enormity of grief, ache at the pain of betrayal, experience the healing power of love, and learn as Sloane does, the real difference between law and justice.
Stacy Miller
CellaNox is Stacy Miller. From her bio: I golf, drink wine, and write romantic novels with thrilling and suspenseful twists (sometimes all three at the same time) featuring strong, capable women who love women. With multiple series in store, I have something for everyone. But, if you enjoy stories where the heroine defeats the bad guy and gets the girl while beating back her own demons, theManhattan Sloane series is tailor-made for you. My debut novel, Out of the Flames kicks off the series.
Where readers can purchase Out of the Flames:
Bella Books (Available April 15, 2020)
Amazon (Available April 21, 2020)

CellaNox says
Oh, Sassy Gran, I miss your regular comments. You’ll have to forgive me for the small cliffhanger at the end of Out of the Flames, but don’t worry, the followup book, From the Ashes, will be out before the end of the year.
DumplinT says
We’ve been waiting . . . Talk about a release being perfect for the moment!
CellaNox says
Dumplin T,
Here’s to hoping social distancing and self-isolation means people have more time to check out a debut author. Spread the word (not the virus).
DumplinT says
K. … but shewww, I’m tryna read!!

Congratulations! I wish you success with your new career.
Manhattan Sloane – fancy name, I like it. I’ll be reading it soon :-)
I’m sad though that you removed your Delayed series on this site. It was one of the all-time-best stories that I regularly returned to for a re-read.
I hope you got to enjoy some kind of release party!
Take care and stay safe
CellaNox says
kiwipit,
Thank you! The name Manhattan Sloane has a special meaning that shall remain kept under lock and key.
The launch party was supposed to be at ClexaCon in Las Vegas this week. Sadly, no party for this book. Perhaps a big party next year when the third book in the series, Beyond the Smoke, releases in the Spring.
I’m so glad that you liked the Delayed series, but don’t fret. While I’m in a holding pattern for the next two books in the Manhattan Sloane series (drafted and ready for the editors), I’ve started re-envisioning the Delayed series. While I’ll tweak a few plot points, the basic storylines will remain intact. The series will be rebranded under a different name, to be announced later this year. If all goes as planned, you might see the first book in that series released late next year.

Congratulations on your success! May there be many more books on your horizon!
CellaNox says
Thank you, majicspider60. Another two are already under contract and cross your fingers, another three within a year. Hope you enjoy the books.
BAT2012 says
Totally enjoyed your fanfic stories. Some of the best written and thought out on the site. Not surprisingly you are now a published author. Looking forward to reading the series. Wishing you all the best for this new release and all the subsequent books to follow. Stay well and be safe.
CellaNox says
BAT2012, I’ve read no less than nine of your stories, and I’m a true fan. I found fanfic as a way to heal my brain from a series of strokes. The more I read from incredible writers such as you, the more I was inspired to start penning a story of my own. So, thank you for serving as an inspiration and for coming along for the ride as I spread my writer’s wings. Stay safe.
