Wild Nights Release, Plus ARC Giveaway

Posted on May 7, 2013

Happy Tuesday! My novella, WILD NIGHTS, has released in digital format. WILD NIGHTS was previously available in the now out-of-print Exclusive anthology, but is now being made available as a stand alone digital novella. WILD NIGHTS features Mike Nottingham, who was one of the oh so hot characters in WILD, WICKED and WANTON.

Grace Wilde owns Wild Nights, a Las Vegas swingers club that provides a fantasy-come-true for strangers in search of total pleasure. Rarely indulging in the fun herself, Grace knows it’s best to never mix business with pleasure—until pleasure comes in such an irresistible package like Mike Nottingham. She wants more of him.

Wild Nights is perfect for Mike, a newcomer to the club accustomed to relationships ending when the sun comes up. Mike is pure country, all animal, and up for a good time. But it’s Grace who has fired his engines. Her intellect, her free spirit, and her beauty arouse him like nothing ever has before. He wants more of her.

But can two people who thrive on independence find a compromise between commitment and absolute sexual freedom?

You can purchase WILD NIGHTS at the following locations:

or at your favorite online retailer.

In addition, there’s an ARC giveaway for ONE SWEET RIDE over at RR@H Novel Thoughts, so head on over there to enter for a chance to win one of the 15 ARCs being given away!

RT Recap! With Photos!

Posted on May 6, 2013

I’m back! I had such a wonderful time at the RT Convention. I met the most wonderful people, from readers to bloggers to booksellers and authors. Everyone was incredibly friendly and amazing, and I can’t wait to go to the next conference.

How about some pictures?

With Julie James at the Carina Press cocktail party.

With Sylvia Day at the Fan-tastic Day event.

At the Book Fair. Thanks so much to everyone who stopped by my table!

I met THE Jude Deveraux and had quite the blubbering fangirl moment. It wasn’t my finest moment, but I got her to sign A Knight In Shining Armor for me, which is one of my favorite books. It’s already sitting pretty on my keeper shelf. Meeting her was a conference highlight for me.

Jaycee Clark, one of my long time friends, a great writer, and Biker Dude thinks she makes the best cookies ever.

I was so very honored to receive a Career Achievement Award this year for Erotic Romance. Here I am trying not to completely blank on my acceptance speech. (Those lights are bright up there, y’all.)

And here is my amazing award. Thank you again to RT BookReviews for this incredible honor.

Had a great convo with Leigh, Angela and Francesca of Under The Covers Book Blog. They were so much fun to hang out with.

The Erotic Romance Panel – Me, Lauren Dane, Maya Banks, Tiffany Reisz and Sylvia Day. We had a blast.

Me and Biker Dude. This is me in flip flops before the temperatures dropped into the 30′s and it freakin’ SNOWED in Kansas City! It was a little cold there, y’all.

On the bench with my friends–Maya Banks, Lillie, and Shannon Stacey.

Me with my bff, the awesome Shannon Stacey

With Shannon Stacey and Lynda Ryba (@FishWithSticks). And we have tiaras! (Shouldn’t everyone?)

I sat and visited with so many more people I didn’t get photos with, like the super amazing Jill Shalvis and the awesome Alyssa Day, some of my Twitter friends like Young Librarian. I’m bummed about that. But I had a wonderful time. Now I’m exhausted and need to sleep for a week, but copyedits for Hope Flames have arrived, and I have a book releasing tomorrow. It’s time to get back to work.

I also brought home a lot of books and swag to share, so look for a giveaway soon!

On the road again…and Wild Nights coming up!

Posted on April 29, 2013

Those two things in the blog title are unrelated, because I’m long past the age where I go on the road and have wild nights. Heh.

I’ll be at the RT convention this week, so if you’re going, I hope to see you! I’ll be posting pictures to my Twitter account, so look for them! Otherwise, I’ll post some pictures here to the blog when I get back.

Next week is the release of Wild Nights, my digital novella that was formerly part of the now out-of-print Exclusive anthology. Wild Nights features that hottie Mike Nottingham from Wild, Wicked and Wanton. I thought I’d leave you with an excerpt from Wild Nights. More info, another excerpt and ordering info for Wild Nights is here.

Hope Flames Cover

Posted on April 17, 2013

HOPE FLAMES is the first book in my new small town contemporary romance series. It’ll be released September 3, 2013.

Here’s the cover! And back cover copy.

When it comes to love, they already know the rules…by heart.

Thirty-two and finally setting up her veterinary practice in the town she once called home, Emma Burnett is on her own and loving it. Independent and driven, she’s not letting any man get in the way of her dreams. Not again.

That’s fine with Luke McCormack. Divorced and hardly lacking in female company when he needs it, he’s devoted to the only faithful companion in his life—his police dog. Still, there’s something about Emma he can’t shake.

When a series of local break-ins leave Emma vulnerable, she seeks help from the one man who sparks her desire for the first time in years. And now they’re giving each other something they thought they’d lost forever…hope.

HOPE FLAMES is up for Preorder. It’ll be available in mass market paperback, and digitally.
