#sixsunday OnceUponASecondChance the Muslim #1NS: Meet Khalid, the unwilling hero of this tale #samplesunday

Hey peeps!

Finally got the sun back after weeks of thunderstorms and quasi-torrential rain. And luckily, for once, the temps are not scorching (at least, not yet! It's 28C this morning, just warm enough to relax).

And I'm planning to relax with some good reading and catching up on some awesome snippets posted by Six Sunday Refugees. Lol, we still haven't decided yet what to call ourselves other than SSS Refugees, but I like this name. What do you think?

So, for a few weeks now, I've been highlig...

Reading is like dating: A Guest Post by author Alissa Baxter

Hey beautiful people!

Absolutely thrilled today to welcome up-and-coming South African author, Alissa Baxter. Mark my words, this girl's gonna cause a stir when she releases her upcoming chick-lit story, The Blog Affair. Set to release this summer from the Ubuntu line at Decadent Publishing, this little gem is a rollicking, funny read about serial dating and the blogger behind the 'analysis' of this phenomenon, one young woman named Emma. Bringing Cape Town to life in her story, Alissa upholds...

And OnceUponASecondChance, the Muslim #1NS, is on sale! Read Chap 1 & come see the characters!

Hey peeps!

Absolutely thrilled and over the moon right now!! My first release of 2013 kicks off today... and it's none other than the story that's been garnering quite some attention lately, becoming known unofficially as 'the Muslim 1NightStand'.

Why's that? Well, because the characters who meet on a blind date set up by Madame Eve of the 1Night Stand agency are Muslims. Yes, who'd have thought, eh? They need love and fall head over heels, face their share of romantic upheavals and doubts and...

#sixsunday From OnceUponASecondChance, the Muslim #1NS. A bit more into Leila's mindset...

Hey beautiful people!

It seems like the sun is coming back out again after a week of cyclonic weather (again!). I've had it up to here with the humidity and rain; wouldn't say no to some scorching sunshine right now. For things to return to 'normal' this summer.

And speaking of normal, many of us feared Sunday would no longer be the same, after the official demise of Six Sentence Sunday last week. But thankfully, a group of SSS refugees have gotten together on Facebook and we are upholding our...

Louise Rose-Innes tells us a little about her latest, The Italian Inheritance!

Hey beautiful people!

Delighted to welcome a fellow ROSA here today, and seriously, how can anyone NOT feature a book with such a gorgeous cover???

Louise Rose-Innes is one more of those fabulous authors from South Africa, the kind who bring romance to another level while giving you a glimpse of foreign lands and flavour.

Check out her latest... and again, I need to point out... What a fantabulous cover!!!

Welcome on board, Louise! Pull up a chair and grab a virgin mojito (sorry, no alcohol here....

Author Alexa Bourne drops by with Simple Treasures!

Hey peeps!

It's a pleasure today to welcome an absolutely amazing author and a wonderful lady I'm honoured to call a friend. She's... Alexa Bourne! And lol, with a name like that, no wonder she writes dead-sexy Alpha heroes for the Honor Guard line at Decadent Publishing. *grin*

She's here today to tell us a bit about herself, and talk about one of her books. So grab a coffee and pull up a seat.

So, Alexa, welcome! Tell us a bit about you, and something we don't know/wouldn't expect about you.

I’...

Love & Curses: LJ Garland & Debbie Gould answer some questions!

Hey beautiful people!

I'm a little down with a cold (which is why I didn't post yesterday. Had to concentrate too hard on not chopping my fingers off while I was making dinner... and all my energy went there), but anyhow, I redeem myself today... hopefully.

Guess what? Interviews on this blog are back on again, and my first victi-- I mean, guests, for 2013 are fellow Decadent Publishing authors, Debbie Gould & LJ Garland (aka Laura). They're here to tell us a bit more about themselves (reva...
