Back from RT! What a fabulous time I had. I’ll put up some pictures later on.

In the mean time - SWORD AND CROWN is finally out! I’m so thrilled to say that. This story was my first attempt at fantasy writing and it was really fun to write. It also is connected to Anya Bast’s upcoming menage, Whisper of the Blade and I loved working with her! There’s an excerpt up on the Sword and Crown page if you’d like to take a peek.

I’m leaving for the RT Convention very early in the morning so if you’re going to be in Houston or will be at the con, please come and say hello!

I want to announce that I’ve contracted a new novel with Ellora’s Cave to be released later this year - Fire and Rain. This is the story that follows my June release, Ascension and is also paranormal romantic suspense. More on this one later!

New reviews up for Thrice United and Chased so check em out!

I’ve put up excerpts for Making Chase and Ascension on their respective pages and added some new reviews for Taking Chase and Chased. Not a lot going on except for the all encompassing preparation for RT! I’ve got several manuscripts out on desks and it’s all just a matter of waiting. I’m done with the first draft of Battlefront (futuristic, erotic, menage with D/s elements) and I’m finishing the synopsis and I’ll pelt my agent with it after RT.

I’m going to be chatting tomorrow, April 14 at 5 pm Pacific/8 Eastern at Romance Reader at Heart! Please come and say hello and grab a chance to win print copies of Giving Chase and Taking Chase!

RT is two weeks away and I have so much to do! Still, lovely things abound. As you can see, this is a new website design by the ever so wonderful Frauke at Croco Designs. Be sure to stop by my blog and enter the contest!

Making Chase is now turned in to my editor and the last and final went out on Sword and Crown so that’s all good. The release date for Making Chase was moved to June 12 - just discovered that when it showed up on the Coming Soon page at Samhain. Still, June is a good month for me - two releases I’m thrilled about. Ascension on the 8th from Ellora’s Cave and then Making Chase on the 12th - wrapping up the Chase Brothers series.

Just now I’m working on Soul Deep, a speculative fiction romantic suspense title and also Bound by Magic, an erotic paranormal. These are both for my agent and I’m hoping to get the partial of at least one of them done by the end of this month!

I’ve put up an excerpt and blurb on the Sword and Crown page!

Fabulous new reviews! RT Magazine gives Tri Mates 4 1/2 stars and PNR reviews Chased - check out the individual book pages!

Check out the coming soon page to see the beautiful new cover for Sword and Crown! It’s totally gorgeous!

I also got word that Reading Between the Lines will be coming out October 3 from Samhain, which is fab as I’d thought it wouldn’t be until November so Yay!

I finished up Making Chase and got it off to my editor (Angie the Magnificent) and I’m working on something for my agent, a follow up to something I introduce in the second novella for Spice!

I’ve put a recap and pictures of last night’s signing up at my blog! It was great fun! I’ve also got a few new reviews for Chased up on the Chased page.

There’ll be short readings from each of us and then a Q&A and a signing at the end. I’d dearly love to see some familiar faces as I say naughty words out loud!

The Maverick Authors (me, Anya Bast and Megan Hart) are having a chat in our chatroom tonight (march 10) at 5 pm pacific and our guest is Laura Bradford of the Bradford Literary Agency (AKA, my agent and Anya’s as well). She’s an exceptionally open and friendly person so if you have questions, come on out and ask them!
