I have one today – with Kate Pearce and Crystal Jordan. I’m so excited I can hardly stand it! I don’t get to hang with writer-types in the flesh much so this ought to be fun. And I love Kate and Crystal. As Crystal might say, they’re made of awesome.
Have a great weekend!

I believe it’s all good to announce I just signed my eighth contract with Samhain for a novella that will kick off a sexy new series about couples who meet in unusual ways.
The first one has the same title as this Rhianna song:
“Under my umbrella…ella…ella…ella…”
Would my readers like another book in the Playing With Fire series? I’ve been toying with an idea in my head that involves Austin’s sister and Austin’s former boyfriend and his current boyfriend (yeah, more naughtiness). Oooh, and the book would start at a wedding reception. What do you think?

I rarely post on the weekend but there are a few things going on too good not to mention.
All Romance Ebooks is offering a 50% off discount on all of their books this weekend. And they’re not taking that 50% away from the author. I bought three books last night. I plan on buying more today. Check out my author page here (yes it’s all about the shameless promotion).
The discount code to use at checkout is SBTBARe1 and was offered over at the Smart Bitches website. Offer ends tonight (1/31), 11:59 p.m. Mountain Standard Time.
I’ll also mention that Fictionwise has their books available at 45% off. Including mine. Check it out!
I also got a mention on the Kindle Review, Kindle books for free website in the $5 and below romance novel section. Yeah me and Debbie Macomber (wowza!). I haven’t really mentioned it but both Forbidden and Tangled are kicking major butt on Amazon. Forbidden has been in the top 100 romance books bestseller list for over a month. Tangled has been there since it released on January 12th. I find it thrilling to be on a bestseller list amongst authors I’ve admired for so long. The one that made me silently squee inside was when I hovered right next to Jude Deveraux. JUDE DEVERAUX. She is seriously one of the authors who inspired me to want to write. So cool.
That’s what’s going on in the world of book selling for me! Not bad huh? Go forth and check out those deals. Some really good ones out there for you!

Yes indeed – don’t forget to go to yesterday’s post if you haven’t already for a chance to win a copy of Luck of the Draw. Today’s post giveaway is a copy of the print book Better With Age, featuring my novella Too Tempting.
I don’t always fall in love with characters when I write them (though it does happen quite often, trust me) but man, I really enjoyed writing this one. It brings a smile to my face just thinking about it and I wrote this a little over two years ago. Such fun! But who doesn’t love an older woman/younger man story?
So answer me this: What is the oldest/youngest combination you’ve ever seen with a couple you know? You don’t have to get specific, we don’t want to name names or anything but yeah, let’s dish. I’m two years older than my husband. No biggie but he sure loves pointing out that I’m that much older than him. The jerk. LOL
Leave a comment today and you’re entered into the drawing for a copy of Better With Age. One lucky winner will be chosen and announced this Saturday. One comment per person please.
Want to read something for free? The Twelfth Night stories are almost finished – my friend Emma Petersen’s story All I Want For Christmas is availabe so go check it out!

More freebies are available! I didn’t blog yesterday (my bad, sorry) but first up is Light My Fire by Alisha Rai. Love that title…
Today’s free story is available from the lovely, hardworking Jackie Barbosa, entitled Ephiphany. I really hope you’re enjoying these free reads and don’t forget – they will soon be available as an anthology via Kindle, still for FREE. Man, I love free.
Speaking of free, I have a print book (Luck of the Draw) coming out this Tuesday from Samhain and well, I plan on doing a contest. A print-themed contest. Where I will be giving away print books by both myself AND a few of my favorite authors. Oooh yeah. Watch for it! I’ll announce it tomorrow.
