Welcoming Amazon Kindle to the UK!

I'm so excited about the Kindle and all it's goodies being available to UK readers! This is such a leap forward in international book availability for UK readers. Woohoo! A little birdie told me I might be getting a reader (or a place in the queue for one) for my birthday! :-D

When I checked out the store, most of my own Kindle books are already there, and I have a couple of newer publications that will pop up there soon. Exciting stuff!

Lovely review for SORCERESS!

More smiles from unexpected sources here today! This lovely commentary was written for the Total-E-Bound newsletter by fellow author, Rachel Randall.

Epic love, epic lust, epic action. That's how I'd describe Saskia Walker's Sorceress. Yet at the same time, Walker's world is incredibly intimate and I was fully immersed. Alongside the Empress Elishiba, I could smell the exotic incense from the braziers, feel the breeze through the jewel-like courtyards and yearn to touch my lovers (and there...

Italian Romanzi Passion

This made me smile! It's the banner for Spice books in Italy, and something looks familiar... :) (Yes, I am still very excited about the Italian translaton, thank you. lol!)

US versus UK covers: Mammoth Book of Threesomes & Moresomes

Here's a fascinating one. The Mammoth Book of Threesomes has just been published in the UK. Yay! It publishes Stateside in November. I'm excited, I have a story in this collection! (More on that another day.)

Check out the yummy covers. The US is on the left, UK on the right. Personally I like them both, but I do think the US cover would be more likely to haul me across a shop to look at it more closely. That's because of the bold eye contact, (always draws me in) the full cover layout, and th...

New excerpt online, and other news

MONICA'S SECRET has left the building. Yay! Now I begin the anxious wait to see what my editor thinks of the final version. :)

In the meantime, I've put an (unedited) excerpt on line. Go here if you'd like to check it out.

I'm taking the rest of today to clean house and stare at my to-do list (decadent behaviour, I know.) There will be partying tomorrow evening, I believe. We do like to celebrate every milestone in this house! On the immediate writing front I have galleys to proof and then I'll...

Sharing yummy cover news

I've been knocked back by some sort of evil lurgi these past 2 days, so it was even more of a treat than usual to find a totally yummy cover in my mailbox when I crawled out of bed. Nothing like a sexy book cover with your name on it to chase away the sick bay blues! :) Check it out.



Two men have walked in to Monica Evans' life, and it isn't ever going to be the same. Owen Clifford and his lover, Alec Stroud, are investigating fraud at Monica's place of work, a luxurious London hotel. From...

The Harlot is now resting...

Well, that's it…I think I have a complete first draft of THE HARLOT. Can't quite believe it! I've loved working on this book. It's been exciting and it's also been a tough job at times. I took on new challenges with the characters, especially their background and personalities, and it's been a real learning curve. The relationship between the hero and the heroine is definitely the most intense one I've written to date, and I'm excited to see what my editor and readers will think of it.

I don'...
