I’m very pleased to announce that I’ve just signed a new contract with my publisher, Grand Central Publishing for three more books! They will be a continuation of the Maiden Lane series with characters I’ve been getting lots of reader mail about! ;-) The first book of the new contract will be released in summer 2012 and will feature Winter Makepeace and is tentatively titled Thief of Shadows . I hope you enjoy it!

Romance Writers of America’s conference is coming up at the end of June and with it the annual “Readers for Life” Literacy Autographing. This year it will be in New York City at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square, Tuesday, June 28th from 5:30-7:30 p.m. There will be over 500 authors signing their books and all proceeds will benefit literacy in New York.

Finally, I’ve donated three items to Brenda Novak’s Annual Auction for the Cure of Diabetes: Luncheon with moi in NYC, a signed setof all my books, and a signed advanced readers copyof my upcoming November release, Scandalous Desires .

Enjoy!

I'm just chuffed to announce that my publisher and I have come to an agreement on a new three-book contract! I always feel like chortling when I stop and think that I make my living as a romance writer--it seems so very unlikely. Thank you to all of you who have bought and read and reviewed my books over the years. Without you I wouldn't be doing what I love most.

The Maiden Lane series is well and truly over but I've received some rather pointed protests about Joseph Tinbox and Peach, so if you've been waiting for their story I have good news. In 2018 I'll be serializing their story in my monthly newsletter as Once Upon a Missive. I do hope you enjoy it!

A lovely press release from my publisher:
