Release Day! The Scenic Route

June 1st! While a good part of me is quivering with denial and wants to hide because this means half the year is gone - yes! Gone! The other part is excited because The Scenic Route is now available at Dreamspinner Press.

Summary: It's the first time Ed Baldwin has ever taken his boyfriend Joe Sutton home to meet his parents, and nervous, he keeps trying to pick a fight with Joe to relieve his stress while they drive. When Joe's had enough, they pull over in a very small town where the choice ...

Mid May Updates & a review for After the Storm

Hey world! I lost about a week and a half there. How about you?

How about some Monday Reviews?

Not only a new week, but a new month as well!

I'll start the Monday off with a few new reviews for Start From the Beginning .

4 Stars from Night Owl Romance Reviews: Reading these characters' interactions - from Drew trying to ignore Miles, to Miles having none of it in his own way - and the progression of how their thoughts change, to reading how those changing thoughts translate into actions made this a wonderful little novella.

and, a grade of Excellent from Jenre over at Well Read: It was...

Just what I need, more to think about, LOL.

A new soldier enters the battle

Periodically I've commented across the web that I'm interested in people's view on their various models of eReaders. Never prone to hasty decisions my dithering has been going on for a year or more despite the absolute raves eReader fans have given the devices.
