Burning Questions Of The Day…

Why did I click on that article about bedbugs? Now I itch….

If my littlest dog escapes from the backyard, but runs around the front and sits at my feet, can we really call it escaping?

Why is my house dirty within an hour of having it cleaned? (See dogs and husband for answer to this question)

Did anyone watch Project Runway last night? Oh Tim Gunn, I love you.

Does anyone really care whether Mariah Carey is pregnant or not?

Does anyone really care whether or not Bristol Palin will be on...

Disturbing Behavior

Biker Dude and I like to go to the casino near our house. Mainly because we're frequent fliers at this casino, and twice a month they give us free buffet coupons. And hey, we like to eat for free. So when we're there, we gamble.

We play the slot machines. We're not heavy gamblers, but obviously we've showed up there enough over the past few years to get free buffet coupons. But we're pretty low key. We're not rolling in money. We bring the amount of money we're willing to lose, and when the...

Awesome News!

Yesterday I found out that NAUTI AND WILD made both the NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY Bestseller lists!

[image error]

This is the first time one of my books made these major bestseller lists. I whooped for joy, and then I cried. It's the pinnacle for a writer to make a list like these, and I couldn't be happier.

First, huge thanks to Lora Leigh, a blockbuster of an author and a great friend. It's because of Lora that I was able to realize a dream come true.

And thank you to all the readers who bought the...

RIDING THE NIGHT'S Great Review!

I barely got Nauti and Wild out the door and already it's time to talk about RIDING THE NIGHT, because it releases next month! Oy on these back to back releases, huh?

[image error]

But RIDING THE NIGHT received an amazing review from RT BookReviews and I just have to share, because RIDING THE NIGHT received a Top Pick!

Burton stands out in this genre not only because she can write super-steamy sex scenes but because her plots, characters and subplots are engagingly complex. This latest work is a prime...
