Busy, busy!
It's been a busy few days since I blogged last. Friday evening and Saturday were full of RWA chapter events with the fabulous Sue Grimshaw of Borders. Sunday, the Dare family trekked on down to the San Diego Wild Animal Park to enjoy the beautiful weather and catch glimpses of rhinos, giraffes, lions, and more. Then on Monday, my eldest dareling…*sniff*…graduated from kindergarten. I can't believe it.
Tomorrow – eek, we all go to the dentist!
But I wanted to come check in and say hello...
One more week!
It's less than a week now until book two of the Stud Club trilogy, Twice Tempted by a Rogue, hits bookstores! You can read the full chapter one here. In other fun news, rights were recently licensed for Indonesian editions of Goddess of the Hunt, Surrender of a Siren, and A Lady of Persuasion!

Work of Art
First, announcements! I'm a guest today at The Romance Dish, where I'm blogging about the importance of books and reading, in life and romance. Please come share your thoughts. My post includes an exclusive excerpt from One Dance with a Duke!
Also, tomorrow I'll be attending my local RWA chapter meeting, and if you're anywhere in the area, I'd invite you to come too! Our all-day guest will be Sue Grimshaw of Borders Group, Inc., who buys all the Romance books for Borders stores. And I...

This is me tempting you…
I can't believe that Twice Tempted by a Rogue will be in bookstores just two weeks from today! I've added to the excerpt available on the site, so it's now Chapter One in its entirety. Hope you enjoy getting to know a bit more about Rhys, Meredith, and the quirky little corner of Dartmoor they inhabit.
And thank you so much to all of you who've read One Dance with a Duke and sent me lovely emails, tweets, Facebook messages, and the like. Hearing from a satisfied reader just makes my day. ...

Sarah's Sizzling Summer Book Club!
How have I not blogged about this yet? I thought I had – but I guess the announcement came out on release day, and the blog was full of recipes.
Anyway, I am completely thrilled to announce that One Dance with a Duke is an official selection of this summer's hottest book club. SB Sarah of the Smart Bitches, Trashy Books blog and All Romance Ebooks are teaming up to bring you Sarah's Sizzling Summer Book Club. This will be going on all summer long, but One Dance is Sarah's very first...

A blogging I will go…
The good folks at Random House have booked me on a blog tour this summer, to travel around the internet and talk about my new trilogy! The wonderful Lisa at TLC Book Tours has industriously worked to set up a schedule, and the tour started yesterday. I will be doing guest posts in some cases, and other times the bloggers will just be posting reviews of the books. However, in almost every case there will be a giveaway!
Yesterday, my guest post went up at The Book Binge, where commenters...

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner
First, I'm a guest today at the Seductive Musings blog, where I wrote about the making of my Stud Club book video. Do come on over and say hi–you could win a signed copy of One Dance with a Duke!
Second, thank you so much to all who participated in the #recitweet contest! It was a fun way to spend release day, and so helpful to get so many easy, yummy recipes. I have all sorts of idea for feeding my family this summer, and I'll let you know how it goes in practice.

One Dance with a Duke in stores today!
It's finally here! Release day for One Dance with a Duke, the first installment in an all-new trilogy. (And if you haven't watched the Stud Club Trilogy video yet, you really should!) To celebrate the book's release, I'm hosting a very special giveaway. Details here.
One Dance in stores today! Contest and giveaway
Woohoo! Today's the big day! The release of One Dance with a Duke, the first installment in an all-new trilogy. I'm so proud of this book, and of course, I want to have a contest to celebrate!
Usually, I just invite you all to comment to win books. That's always fun, but I thought I'd do something different today. I'm going to ask you to help feed my family. And in the process, feed some other families.
Bear with me for a moment. There's a method to this madness, promise.
The heroine of...

One Dance is just One Day away!
I can't believe it! Release day for One Dance with a Duke is finally almost here. To celebrate, I'm working on a fun contest and giveaway for tomorrow. In the meantime, I've at long last posted excerpts for Twice Tempted by a Rogue and Three Nights with a Scoundrel, in case you want to sneak peeks at books two and three in the series.
Until tomorrow…!
