As many of you may know, I have a little series going in Dragonblade Publishing’s shared world of The Lyon’s Den. I’ve got three titles in that series so far: Pride of Lyon’s, The Lyon’s Paw, and The Dandy Lyon.
This summer I’m working on a fourth novella for that series, title yet to be determined. But it’s going to be Anthony’s story, Anthony being the brother of Marcus Dandridge, hero of The Dandy Lyon, who is now working as the manager of Marcus’s club, The Dandy.
I’ve begun plotting this next Lyon’s Den novella and I have the hero’s name, but I don’t have a name for the heroine and I want your help so I’m devising a contest. To enter the contest, enter a name suggestion in the comments of this blog post. If you want to give me a desription of her as well, that’s great, but not a requirement.
So far what I know about this heroine is that she’s an heiress who is at the Lyon’s Den to try to marry a titled lord who needs her money, because she has money but no social position. She’s young, rather petite, but that’s all I know about her for now. I do think that she’s not quite a spitfire, but she knows her mind and is very tenacious.
The person whose name I end up choosing as the heroine’s will receive a $25 gift card to Amazon, B & N, Starbucks, or Bath & Body AND a signed copy of the book as soon as it is published (I think in February 2027).
So with that information, let the naming begin!

I would say the name Aer’ika Ayers.It sounds like she knows her mind because she has had to spell / explain that name since childhood. That right there will get you to petite, knowing her mind and tenacious.
