New Contract!

On Friday, my new editor at TWRP's Scarlet Rose line, Diana Carlile, let me know she wants to contract the followup to Full Disclosure. Much squeeing commenced in my corner of the universe. ;) Once I have a confirmed title and more information to share, I'll post it here.

Here's the tentative blurb:

As the webmistress for one of the Northeast’s hottest dating sites, Hunk Du Jour, Jenny Talbot is no stranger to reading the applications of potential clients. But when the latest application that crosses her inbox belongs to the guy she broke up with a mere twenty-seven days ago, Ty Randall, she does a double take. Reading what Ty wants in bed doesn’t only get her hot, it also makes her rethink ending their relationship. All she longed for was a little more spice—okay, a lot more spice—in the bedroom, but he let her go without an argument. Now she’s determined to get him back once and for all. But will telling Ty exactly what she needs allow her to finally experience ultimate pleasure or will she drive away the man she loves for good?

I'm excited to dive into edits and see this one on the virtual shelves. Jenny and Ty aren't necessarily the "typical" couple you'd find in an erotic romance and I really hope their story is well-received.

I'm also thrilled to not be a one-trick pony, LOL. Ever since Full Disclosure's release, I've longed for another contract. Sometimes you can't help wondering if you'll ever release another book. Nothing is guaranteed in this business, that's for sure. But I'm very happy with where I am at the moment and intend to keep striving for more.

Now bring on the bubbly!

Thursday 1.22 progress...and a great book!

I finally critiqued the chapters I owed one of my CPs tonight, so I met one of my Bonus Goals for the week. Just one left - my synopsis for VT - but I left the icky one for last. While I kinda like doing query letters, I'm not a fan of synopsises. But it's only 2 pages, so I'll get it done. Then I'll probably collapse, although I'm hoping to see the third Underworld movie this weekend before I do so. ;)

Instead of a picture of Henri (sorry!) I'm featuring my friend and CNYRW chaptermate's debut release from The Wild Rose Press. Meltdown by Susan St. Thomas is going on my must read list, and it comes out tomorrow, 1.23!



If you need something to warm up your chilly winter nights (and we sure do here) be sure to pick up a copy!

Want to know more about Meltdown? Here's the blurb:

Reliving the magical night before his deployment when he and Cassie Hamilton were lovers had kept Evan Jorgenson sane while fighting in Iraq. Years later, when they meet again at a Lake Placid bar, he's immediately drawn to her. He's still seeing the ghosts of his soldiers and hearing the enemy approach. She deserves more than a shell-shocked soldier, but Cassie's in danger. Before long, he's protecting her from a stalker, dodging bullets, and jeopardizing not only his job as a NYS police officer, but a dream promotion. And he's more in love with her than ever. If only she'd trust him and talk about what happened in L.A....

After a year with no calls or letters from Evan, a disheartened Cassie moved to L.A. There she met a dangerous man, and more than dreams were lost. Now back home, she opens a chocolate shop to rebuild her life, but her troubles in L.A. have followed her to Central NY. And there's only one man that can help her out of this mess. But Cassie has a secret bigger than nibbling Hershey's chocolate kisses while she works.

When Evan discovers her real secret, will he put aside his pride and follow his heart, or will he leave her again?
