I hope you've noticed the gorgeous cover for Duke of Midnight --scroll over the cover to see the stepback. I hope to start posting excerpts next month.

Meanwhile, conference season starts officially for me with the RT Book Reviews Convention in Kansas City next week. On Friday I'll be accepting the RT Reviewer's Choice Award for Best Historical Romance of 2012 for Thief of Shadows .

Firelight by Kristen Callihan
Callihan is an amazing new author. Her Victorian London is mysterious, weird, and exciting. Her heroine is kick-ass, her hero dreamy and forbidding at the same time, and the romance singes the pages. Can't wait to read the rest of this series!

“A man once asked me ... how I managed in my books to write such natural conversation between men when they were by themselves. Was I, by any chance, a member of a large, mixed family with a lot of male friends? I replied that, on the contrary, I was an only child and had practically never seen or spoken to any men of my own age till I was about twenty-five. "Well," said the man, "I shouldn't have expected a woman (meaning me) to have been able to make it so convincing." I replied that I had coped with this difficult problem by making my men talk, as far as possible, like ordinary human beings. This aspect of the matter seemed to surprise the other speaker; he said no more, but took it away to chew it over. One of these days it may quite likely occur to him that women, as well as men, when left to themselves, talk very much like human beings also.”
