Lord of Darkness is in stores now and I hope you've got your copy. When you do, will you do me a favor and post a review of what you thought of the book on Amazon or Goodreads or both? Apparently, the publishers quite like that sort of thing and since I'm up for contract, well...it can't hurt. ;-)

Meanwhile, you might want to check out the latest installment of my online prologue to Lord of Darkness , I've added Her Grace to the Imaginary Dogs on my Extras page, and finally, the St. John family tree has been added to the Families page in my Maiden Lane pages.

If you're on Facebook, be sure to enter my iPad mini contest!

Last, but far from least, Duke of Midnight is already available for preorder on Kindle. Stay tuned until October. ;-)

Enjoy!

I've promised to post a free online epilogue when my just released book, Duke of Midnight , reaches 100 reviews on Amazon. In the meantime, I asked for input from readers on which Maiden Lane book you'd like an epilogue for...and now the results are in!

Charming Mickey O'Connor and Silence's book, Scandalous Desires was far and away the winner!

Coming in pretty evenly in second place were Winter and Isabel in Thief of Shadows , and Maximus and Artemis in Duke of Midnight .

There were votes for every book in the Maiden Lane series and a small, but quite vocal minority wanted an epilogue for all the books with appearances by all the main couples. Hmm...well, you know Christmas is coming up and if you're very, very good perhaps a small gift can be arranged. ;-)

In the meantime, I just noticed that Duke of Midnight has 74 reviews on Amazon in only the first week of release! I have two thoughts on this:

1. Thank you to everyone who took the time to post a review on Amazon, Goodreads or the book place of your choice! I'm very, very grateful for the support from all of my readers.

and,

2. Meep! I'd better get writing that epilogue. ;-)

Enjoy!

We're over 100 reviews for Duke of Midnight on Amazon!!! Thank you to everyone who posted a review--although it does mean I'm spending my Sunday furiously finishing up that epilogue for Scandalous Desires . Seriously, you guys, I really didn't think we'd get to 100 this fast.

So here's a thought: I have an idea for a Maiden Lane "Christmas Special" epilogue. Would you all be interested if I posted it when we get to 200 reviews on Amazon? Do you think that's doable by X'mas? What do you think?

Oh, and THANK YOU again! I love my readers!!!

Goodness! Duke of Midnight spent a second week on the New York Times bestseller list. Thank you to everyone who bought the book in whatever form you enjoy! ;-)

To celebrate reaching 100 Duke of Midnight reviews on Amazon, I've posted an epilogue for Scandalous Desires .

Enjoy!

I just turned in the galleys for Darling Beast which means we’re on track for release on October 14th. If you’d like to get an alert notice in your inbox on the day of the book’s release, sign up for my The Book is Out! newsblast.

Now for some slightly less fun news: my publisher is Hachette and at the moment Hachette and Amazon are squabbling. Amazon has decided to take down the pre-order links on all Hachette books for Kindle. I’m holding out hope that by the time Darling Beast is released all this will be resolved, but for the moment you can’t pre-order the book for Kindle. You can preorder Darling Beast in all other ebook formats and you can preorder it in paperback on Amazon and every other book retailer. You can also buy all my other books on Kindle—it’s just the preorder books that are affected. I’m sincerely sorry for this situation. I’ll be sure to post to Facebook, Twitter, my website, and in my newsletter to let you know when things are back to normal.

I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that my publisher, Hachette, and Amazon have come to terms! This means that readers can now pre-order all my books on Amazon:

Once and Always

Dearest Rogue

And Darling Beast is on sale for only $5.99 on Kindle!

Enjoy!

I hope you're having a wonderful summer! I've been working to plant my brand new garden--my neighbor looked over the fence and asked if I'd bought out the garden center. ;-)

Meanwhile, I'm putting together an extra-special free story for my readers: an epilogue for Dearest Rogue ! Here's how it will work: when pre-orders of Sweetest Scoundrel reach 1,500 on Amazon I'll be posting the story to my website so everyone can read it. We're at about 1,000 pre-orders now, so I think this is a very attainable goal. If you haven't already pre-ordered Sweetest Scoundrel , now is the time to do it!

I'm pleased to announce that I'll be attending an all-new romance convention next year--just for historical romance writers and readers! The Historical Romance Retreat will be held September 22-25 in Spokane, Washington at the beautiful Davenport Hotel. Reader attendance is limited to 300 people and there's a special Early Bird registration price, so hurry up and register for this fun event!



See you there!

We’re 500 pre-orders closer to the release of my Top Secret, Very Special, free Dearest Rogue epilogue. If you haven’t already pre-ordered my next book, Sweetest Scoundrel , now is the time to do it. When we reach 2,000 pre-orders, I’ll post the free epilogue to Dearest Rogue on my website for everyone to read. Any pre-order in any format counts. Tell your friends, family, and neighbors—the sooner we hit that 2,000 mark, the sooner you can read the epilogue!
