I’m currently working on the 2nd round of revisions for THIS EARL IS ON FIRE and the first draft of WHEN A MARQUESS LOVES A WOMAN, and strangely enough, I’m having fun with both (and I’m not even on medication as I say this!).
Yet there are moments when I feel as if the deadline IS a grizzly chasing me, and I wish I could hide in a giant mug of tea and just float there for a while. Then, when I’ve had enough chai, I get back to work and just let the bear breathe down my neck the whole time.
And next week, the deadline grizzly bear and I will be driving to the Hyatt Regency in Shaumburg to attend the Chicago Spring Fling. I’m so excited!!! The bookstore will have copies of THE DEBUTANTE IS MINE, and I’ll have goodies to give away at my table for those who join me at the book signing, Saturday, May 21st, from 3-5 p.m.
Just in case you’ve been waiting to hold THE DEBUTANTE IS MINE in your hands, to breathe in the crisp scent of ink and paper, or even to take a peek at the cover every time Jack Marlowe steps onto the page… you’re in luck!
Do you live near Chicago? If so, I’d love to see you at the Chicago Spring Fling!
The event will be held at the Hyatt Regency in Shaumburg Illinois on May 20-21. And I’ll have a few goodies on hand for the book signing that takes place from 3-5 p.m. on Saturday, May 21st.
The sheltered daughter of a country baron, Miss Adeline Pimm comes to London looking for adventure… and finds it in the form of a bloody, unconscious man slumped in the doorway of her family’s rented townhouse. Though his identity is a mystery, Adeline is inexplicably drawn to the handsome, injured man and vows to nurse him back to health.
Liam Cavanaugh, the scandalous Earl of Wolford, is startled when he awakens in an unfamiliar bed, wrapped in bandages that hinder his eyesight, with no memory of why he was beaten half to death. Although he can’t see the witty young woman who tends to his wounds, her alluring voice—and a single stolen kiss from her soft lips—help soothe his pain. But when he is fully healed, Liam is not ready to let go of the one woman who stirs his deepest longings.
Liam will do whatever it takes to see Adeline again, even if it means giving up his rakish ways. But his disreputable past is not so easily forgotten and his secrets are far more dangerous than he—or Adeline—ever imagined.
I’m stunned over Prince’s passing. He was more than an incredibly gifted artist, but a true original. There was no one else like him.
Like many of you, his music was part of my adolescence, and I knew every word to the Purple Rain album.
In fact, he touched so many lives, that all over the world, purple lights glowed for him last night. Even in my part of the world, the city displayed purple lights on the river to mourn his passing.
YAY!!! Release day is finally here and THE DEBUTANTE IS MINE is streaming through cyberspace to e-readers everywhere. Thank you so much for sharing this exciting day with me!
And my Tasty Virtual Book Tour begins today. At each of the “stops” you can enter for your chance to win a digital copy of ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS A DUKE, the anthology featuring “The Duke’s Christmas Wish” (aka the story that starts the series).
