Bright's Ferry, ebooks, Friday, romance

There’s nothing better than a weekend of reading.

I’ve got a stack of books to get through – in no particular order, Gena Showalter’s The Darkest Warrior, Joanna Shupe’s Mogul, Nalini Singh’s Wolf Rain, and Jennifer Ashley’s Death in Kew Gardens.

Here’s to a weekend of reading! And by that I mean doing laundry, taking the furballs for their annual checkup, dealing with a leaky bathroom faucet, and some frantic cleaning for the houseguests arriving on Sunday. So, I will be snatching ten minutes here and there in between errands, in waiting rooms, and in the tub to get through a few pages.

What I really need is a treehouse, a stash of Girl Scout cookies, and no adult responsibilities.

What are you reading this weekend? If you’re looking for some steamy romantic suspense, here’s my suggestion:

Hope your weekend is relaxing and full of uninterrupted reading time!

xoxo

A polite little Death.

Like all of you, I’m a voracious reader, and I have a tendency to choose a direction and just go go go until I run out of steam or something new and shiny crosses my path in a way that can’t be ignored. Then I change course – I’m a serial monogamist when it comes to romance genres. For the last few months, I’ve been obsessing over Regency, which has never really been absent from my life, but wasn’t a focus, either. So, I’ve been devouring Sarah MacLean and Joanna Bourne and Sherry Thomas and Ashley Gardner like they’re deep, dark chocolate, and pondering the intricacies of corsets and Polite Society.

I’m finally diving into writing this genre, which is both an exciting challenge and something I’m deathly afraid of – the bar is set pretty high! However, the best part about a new project is the research, and because I tend to lean toward the dark and creepy, I had to start with death customs. One of the things I find so interesting about this period is the strictness of society rules – particularly when applied to women – that were the norm when it came to funerals and mourning.

Here are a couple of links you might enjoy if you’re curious:

Heaven forbid a lady step out of mourning too soon!

More on what I’m writing in a few weeks, when I have a blurb and some excerpts. I’m tempted to write a romantic suspense set at the dawn of BRIGHT’S FERRY, in the colonial era – but that’s a whole new kettle of fish.

Have a lovely Thursday!

It’s 2016!  Thank goodness.  Looking back over my pages, 2015 was not my best effort.  No excuses, just bad scheduling!  But it’s a new year – I have a fair amount of reorganizing to do on this blog, but more importantly, this is the year to finish the unfinished goodies that have been driving me batty for weeks if not months. Take a look:




Fun, right?  All of these are in some state of “somewhat done” to “nearly done” to “polish, polish, polish.” And they don’t include the Regency series I started last year as well!  So, my New Year’s resolutions are as follows:

  1. Update the site!
  2. An excerpt for you all every single week.
  3. Publish, publish, publish!

Hope your year is productive and full of sexy, wonderful reads you just can’t put down! I’m going to stock up on energy bars and coffee and get to it.  Stop by tomorrow for an excerpt!

I know, I know – I was supposed to have an excerpt last night.  Instead I got a little teensy bit obsessed with this…not until January, but now I have something to motivate me…LOL…:)

I’ll try to have an excerpt of something tomorrow, but enjoy!

Bright's Ferry, romance

Good morning!  

This week is all about finishing up MORE THAN A NIGHT and getting through a large chunk of SAFE FROM THE STORM!  I should have an excerpt of some sort up tonight, so check back. MORE THAN A NIGHT is almost there – I’m pushing to have it up this weekend, fingers crossed.

This morning I started poking around for a luscious cover hottie to use for SAFE FROM THE WILD, which is my winter Bright’s Ferry book – you’ll meet Eden and Rafe in SFS.  Unfortunately, the stock sites were making me grumpy this morning – Rafe is a Daniel Craig-esque Bond in my head, and finding just the right pic is going to be a challenge!  I will happily take any suggestions.

Meanwhile, lots of typing to do, and stop by later for an excerpt!
