On page 123…

Their gazes locked for a tense moment as Lara realized just what she'd agreed to. A knot of arousal curled low in her belly and she automatically lowered her gaze from his peircing one. Once her gaze was lowered, Karl's grip loosened and his fingers massaged the back of her head.

New York with Friends!

I had such a good visit to New York last weekend, I had to share. My sister Delilah Devlin and I flew to New York City for the Novelists Inc conference in Manhattan. There we met up with fellow Allure Authors, Sasha White and Sylvia Day. I got to know other others like Jordan Summers, Megan Hart and Susan Lyons. It was a great time and I'm so glad I went.

Sylvia Day, Delilah and I took in a show called Curtains. I hadn't heard of it until someone recommended it, but I'm glad we went. David Hyde Pierce starred in it and it was funny, musical and a total hoot! The best part was going with friends. Sasha, Delilah and I walked to Time Square for a hot dog and cheese cake at Juniors. We shopped a little, talked a lot and had fun.

Delilah and I made the rounds of visiting our editors, stopping in at Avon, Kensington and Harlequin. It's great to see where the editors actually work and the piles of manuscripts they have in their offices.



All in all it was a great trip! Next on is in Pittsburgh for Romantic Times Booklovers Convention!

Fit to Be Tied - March 19th!

Today I'm talking wild west, gun-totin', chaps-wearing, ropin', ridin', sexy cowboys! That's right, ladies, the men that make you hot and sweaty by just watching them ride a horse. What's so sexy about a cowboy, you might ask?
Uh, if you have to ask...well 'nough said.
Who hasn't ever drooled over a man in chaps, wearing a cowboy hat and not much else? I give you a a couple of tasty morsels to savor...

And if you're not drooling, you're crazy! Sun-bronzed muscles, big, callused hands, powerful thighs and a whip! Cowboys have it all. Sigh *** Ah the inspiration!
What's a girl to do? Fall in LLLUUUUUVVVV!

My March 19th Ellora's Cave release Fit to Be Tied is novella about two desperate people, a cowboy and a female bandit-wannabe. The setting? Where else? Texas! The cowboy is as fast as a speeding stallion, stronger than a bull and the bandit as delicate as a prairie rose hefting a revolver. Look out Texas, the wild west will never be the same.

Heath Ledger

I was shocked and saddened to learn one of my favorite young actors died yesterday. I came to love Heath Ledger in the movie 10 Things I hate About You, a remake of the The Taming of the Shrew. I also loved him in A Knights Tale. He was a talented and sexy man whose life ended way too soon. He will be missed.

Ex-soldier and psychic hunter Angelo Devlin has seen evil first-hand.

Passion for Him

Check out what fellow Allure Author Sylvia Day has out this month! ~MJ

Miss Amelia Benbridge is ready to leave behind a past filled with heartbreak for a sensible marriage. Until temptation itself comes calling, with an invitation to seduction…

SHE LOVED AND LOST HIM ONCE…

Amelia Benbridge and the Earl of Ware are the most anticipated match of the Season. Lord Ware is handsome, wealthy, and kind, and he understands that her love will always belong to her childhood sweetheart, Colin. When Colin died, Amelia believed she would never feel such passion again. But her primal reaction to the brooding stranger who approaches her at a masquerade, coaxing her into a moonlit minuet and a single, sensual kiss, proves otherwise…

Colin Mitchell knew a pairing between a peer’s daughter and a gypsy stable boy was impossible. Amelia’s mistaken belief in his demise afforded him the opportunity to return to her as a man of means. But time has slipped through his fingers. She is preparing to wed another and danger prevents him from revealing the truth. Colin can only bid her a secret farewell, but he underestimates her determination to unmask her phantom admirer. A forbidden kiss leads to her ardent pursuit and a soul-scorching affair. Amelia is perfectly attuned to his every desire, every thought–and hungry for stability he can’t offer her. For deception lies at the heart of their love, waiting to drive them apart once again…

What dark secret was she hiding?

When the Otherworld Crime Unit reconvenes to investigate a ritualistic murder, werewolf Jace Jericho can barely set aside his past—and his hatred of humanity—to work with the team's newest member. As far as Jace is concerned, police rookie Tala Channing has two strikes against her: one, she's human, and two, something about her drives him wild with desire.—

Forced to work side by side with Tala, deep into the witching hours, Jace struggles to keep his primal instincts in check. But when they finally succumb to wild passion, Jace realizes Tala has spun a web of lies. And Tala's secret now puts his life—and heart—on the line.—

"If it’s a book by Vivi Anna, you just know it’s going to be good. DARK LIES is spectacular, even better than the first book in The Valorian Chronicles!" - Debbie, CK2KWIPSANDKRITIQUES
