Super Sweet Discussion Questions
Over the Thanksgiving holidays, I was blessed to attend my first ever book club meeting as the author of the book the group read that month. It was just so freaking cool!
This group is made up of eight women, all from different backgrounds, jobs, and even ages. They meet over dinner, scrumptious desert, and glasses of wine to discuss the books they read and enjoy each other's company. If I still lived in New Orleans, this group would have a new member :)
Along with discussing the industry, my p...

Get Your SWOON On! Mega Holiday Romance Giveaway & Official #UnwrapMe Launch
Who doesn’t love a good romance? I know I do. And when that romance happens to be a holiday romance, set against Thanksgiving feasts, Christmas lights, or New Year’s Eve countdowns, my romance heart gets super happy. I read these types of stories all year long, whenever I want to feel an extra dose of warm fuzzies, but I confess I become a bit of a junkie around this time of year in particular.
And my writing partner, Shannon Duffy aka Samantha Spencer, and I have decided to feed your addictio...

My Words Are Gonna Be In A Language I Can't Read!! *Dances*
Y'all, I am LOVING this week!
This morning I woke up with a headache. I was tired and a bit cranky, even though my wonderful husband who is made of all things awesome surprised me with a year of maid service for our 9 year wedding anniversary. (Yep, he totally gets me!)
And then, I checked my email.

I've been holding onto this bit of good news for almost two months, and I'm sooo excited to finally share it with the world. Like, not just excited, thrilled. Imagine me tap dancing, working the jazz hands, with a big old cheesy, mega-watt smile on my face.
My baby is going to be published!!!!!!
Some of you may be saying, "Um, Rachel? Wasn't your baby published a couple months ago?" And you're right. My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century is my first baby to leave the nest and go out into the world,...

Christmas Comes Early :) #UnwrapMe is Live!
I am addicted to romance.
It's cool, I can admit it. Sweet romance, sassy romance, steamy romance, I love it all. Movies, books, and in real life, I'm just a sucker for a good love story. I love getting lost in it, experiencing two people finding that person that is perfect for them, overcoming whatever odds are in their way and growing stronger together as they face them. I love the flirtatious fun that a new romance brings, and the warm fuzzies it leaves me with in the end. I tell ya, I'm ad...

Super Sweet Winners & Where I Have Been...
It's Friday! Almost an entire week since I last blogged, and even my Twitter and FB feeds have been somewhat slow.
Yes, if you follow me,that was slow. I may or may not have a Twitter addiction....
Ahem, anyway, the reason for my unusual silence is because I have some major news, and some really exciting news, only some of which I can share with you now, but needless to say, it's kept me quite swamped. Well, that and traveling for hours getting lost for field trips with my children a whole day...
