LATEST PRETTIES
Playboy Boss, Live In Mistress is a finalist in the Romance Writers of Australia's Romantic Book of the Year Award!
My just finished story With This Fling... will be a launch title in January 2011 for Mills and Boon's new RIVA series romance in the UK (and only in the UK. The story will still market elsewhere as Sexy and Presents Extra). But back to RIVA. Four titles a month. Sourced from current Modern Heat and Romance editorial. Choc full of warmth, wit, and varying degrees of sensuality. Vibrant and gorgeous packaging. And then there's the clincher - an author lineup that reads like a list of my favourite category romance authors EVER. I think I'm in love...
Revealed: A Prince and a Pregnancy is a finalist in Romance Writers of America's 2010 Rita Awards, in the Contemporary Series Romance Section.
Exposed: Misbehaving with the Magnate is a USA Today Bestseller

THE THING ABOUT REVIEWS
I don't usually go looking for reviews. They tend to render me either incandescently happy or decidedly despairing about my story writing skills. Either way, the work of the day does not get done. But I do understand that there's pleasure to be had in discussing book likes and dislikes with friends (and with strangers), and from an author(ly) point of view, book reviews are useful. Think of them as colonoscopies; you know you don't want one but there's information to be gleaned there that might one day save your arse.
Anyway, the Bennett Family books have been collecting a few reviews of late and when the last story in the five book series - Red-Hot Renegade - came online this month and got reviewed by two of the biggie reader review sites on the same day it was time to pay attention. Feedback's been good overall. Some of it's been great. Some of it's been filed away in the brain to be hauled out at a later date in the interests of writing better books. But I digress...
Apparently the Bennett series stories can function as a replacement for chocolate (and if this is the case I am so set for life)! Who knew? But don't take my word for it. Follow the links below. See what the readers have to say about those Bennett boys (and girl!) and then hopefully go and buy a book. Any book will do. One of my books would be better.
