What I'm Reading Wednesday

Before I talk about the books I read this week I want to mention one of my books - Lost and Found. I'm going to hold a book chat about Lost and Found this Friday, August 13 (Lucky Friday!!) on my Facebook page . This will be for anyone who's read the book (since there will be spoilers you might want to miss it if you haven't read it yet!). I always like to talk about books after I've read them, especially if it was one that made me think about it, so I thought this might be fun. I'm going to ...

WIPs and Chains

After last week's technological disaster, I had a pretty productive week! I wrote 4000 words a day, several days in a row and dayum, this baby is over half done! Then I had a little slow down as I realized that my hero's back story isn't sufficently heartbreaking. I need more motivation for him. So I got doing some research and brainstorming as opposed to actual writing. Which is okay, because that's all part of the process, right? Then things got busy with an all day chat on Friday with the ...

Release day!

Power Struggle is out today!
 
Here's a teaser snippet but I'm posting more excerpts and talking about the book all day today with the Nine Naughty Novelists at the Latte Lounge at Coffee Time Romance, so come on by - I'm also giving away a copy of Power Struggle there!

In the dark bedroom, she paused to admire Dev stretched out in her bed, taking up nearly the whole damn thing he was so big, on his stomach, arms beneath the pillow, head turned away from her. The sheets were around his waist, ...

What I'm Reading Wednesday

Wednesday already! A long weekend always messes me up.

In the last week I read two books by fellow authors from Nine Naughty Novelists - Edge of Heaven by PG Forte, and Just Like That by Erin Nicholas.

Edge of Heaven is such a unique story, set in Limbo. I can honestly say I've never read a story with that kind of setting! I loved the two characters in this story, loved the story, it made me laugh and made me cry (damn you PG!)

Just Like That was another awesome story! I loved how these two cha...

Review for Lost and Found!

My wonderful Samhain editor Tera Kleinfelter alerted me to this review today for Lost and Found, from Joyfully Reviewed:

"Lost and Found stayed with me for hours after I finished reading. Nate and Krissa just worked for me and I wanted their happy ever after in the worst way! Kelly Jamieson now has a permanent place on my keeper shelf and I can't wait to see what she writes next."

Thank you to reviewer Talia at Joyfully Reviewed!

WIPs and Chains

It's holiday Monday here, a long weekend and looks like a gorgeous day. And it's the last week of my four week vacation from the day job. It hasn't been as productive as I'd hoped, but I have crossed a lot of things off the "to do" list, many of which were polishing and editing older manuscripts. Late last week I finally got back into writing mode only to encounter a technological tragedy. Thursday I sat down and whipped out 3800 words on my "chef" story. Friday morning when I opened the docu...

What I'm Reading Wednesday

Well I just finished Raising Kane by Lorelei James. You know what you're going to get with one of her "rough rider" books and I loved it. Lots of hot sex and tough but tender cowboy love. She writes great cowboy heroes. Next up on my reader (though I've already had a sneak peek at this story!) Edge of Heaven by PG Forte.

WIPs and Chains

Well another week has gone by without much writing, but I have continued editing and polishing, which was on my list of things to do during my vacation from the day job. I'm getting two manuscripts ready to submit.

And I did do some writing, but it's on a sooper sekret project I'm working on with the Nine Naughty Novelists - keep your eyes out for more news on this, it's coming this fall!

TGIF

Actually since I've been on vacation the last two weeks, I almost forgot it was Friday! So I can't really say TGIF!

For today's little sneak peek here's a snippet from the manuscript I'm currently polishing up and getting ready to submit. It's called Power Exchange:

She awoke to sensation — dark, erotic, electric — her body stretched out on the bed, hands above her head. She sank into the touch of hands, hard but gentle, and Cole's mouth, warm but greedy, as he kissed and nibbled and sucked.
