I upgraded my blog but not my template cuz I scared…

New Western! From Zebra! At the really cool debut price! But it doesn’t come out until March 2007.
Straight From The Heart
Cord Tanner has a very simple plan: get paid to be Beatrix Northroupe’s husband for a month so the prim, but sexy, Englishwoman can gain rightful ownership of her family’s stud farm. [...]

Hard Evidence (Berkley Sensation) is the sequel to Extreme Exposure and should be arriving in a mailbox near me soon *g*.
Pamela says:
I have two contemporary releases this year. The first is HEAVEN CAN’T WAIT (June), which is part of the anthology CATCH OF THE DAY. It includes characters from Extreme Exposure and is the funniest, [...]

Please email me your address!

Thanks to everyone for playing and to Sabrina Jeffries (who just has returned from the bus tour and so should give us a recap ) for such a great prize!

It was bad enough when I figured it wasn’t historical… it isn’t even a romance.
le sigh
When a someone asked Susan Kay Law if it wasn’t a romance what was it. She responded
What is it, Kathy? Hmm. I believe the current plan is simply to put fiction on the spine.
“Pissed Off Forty-something Lit” probably sums [...]

I am on very few yahoo groups. I think there are six: three author lists, two historical reader lists and a trade group. Oh and there is the brotherhood list but it is no mail because there is no way in hell I could keep up with it, but I do go check it out [...]

I have to say I think beth and jane of Dear Author are both swell people and personally I like them, even though I have only emailed with beth like twice. (yes candy, I still owe smart bitches a guest bitch)
I also think it is totally cool to dislike them or think they are [...]

Elizabeth does Lori
Tara Marie should be happy to know:
And… (drumroll please) I recently agreed to a two-book contract for a horror series I’m starting. It’ll be written under the name L.L. Foster, but that’s all I really know so far.

Shut Up!
No I am not referring to any authors, message boards or online blow ups. Odd that
There are certain phrases I just don’t see being used in historicals. The nifty etymology online says:
Shut up (v.) first recorded 1840
Now the book in question is set in 1810, so I think the usage [...]

I am half way through and I think I have read this book before. It reminds me of The Seduction. But I recall liking The Seduction.
Does Holt have more than two characters?
Hero – bored rake who takes his pleasure where he wants
Heroine – virgin with no clue what to do down there [...]

This is another new to me, historical author with a book coming out November 2007.
I need to finish the list of upcoming books I want to keep an eye on because man there are lots. I just hope some turn out to be grand reads!
The Earl of Carleton’s sole commitment is to his hedonistic [...]

Gayle Callen will be writing medievals again for Avon. Only not under Gayle Callen… her medieval name is Julia Latham.
Wonder why since ‘Gayle Callen’ has medievals already. I haven’t really liked her last few books so I hope Julia Latham will be a return of what was grand in His Bride.
I [...]

A tease… here have five dollars off a 15 order… then there was the free shipping with 25.
bastards
It gets me every time. Add in a phone call that ruined my day (more on that later) and book shopping was called for.
If secret babies, amnesia, shotguns, mistresses, brides and Diana Palmer can’t fix it, nothing [...]

Another great review

Jo Goodman’s book
One Forbidden Evening
