Please welcome Haley Whitehall and her historical interracial romance, Midnight Caller, which is FREE on iTunes through October 1!

I’d like to thank Libby for having me on her blog today. I’m here to talk about the very first historical romance I’d written Midnight Caller. I can’t believe it has been published for a little over a year.

Midnight Caller is currently free on iTunes as part of Apple’s 1st in series freepromotion. Now is your chance to check out my Moonlight Romance series. It won’t...

First Look: Sweet Imperfection

I’m super excited to share the news: I’ve signed a contract with Decadent Publishing for the second Weston University novella. This one is titled Sweet Imperfection, and it takes place at the same reunion/commencement weekend that Passionate History did. These are connected novellas in that they have the same setting, but we’re visiting a whole new set of characters. Emma Chen-Delvaux is a successful creative advertising executive at Weston for her ten year college reunion. There she meets Na...

“Can I be of some assistance?” he asked, his voice mild. She jerked up at his words.

“Professor—Aidan,” she said, sounding embarrassed.

Good. “What are you doing?”

“I’m trying to find my rental car. I think I parked it somewhere around here, and I can’t exactly remember what it looks like.”

“Can’t you click the remot...

To-be-read

My reading pile is out of control! I brought home so many exciting books from the RWA conference, and my favorite local used bookstore closed this month, so I had to take advantage of their closing sale. Needless to say, I’m running out of bookshelf space. The books pictured here don’t even include all the ebooks I’ve got stashed on my various eroding apps. I’ve been reading a couple of books a week lately, which should get me through all of these in about…7 months!? Do you have a to-be-read...

2014 RWA Conference Gallery

I had so much fun at the annual RWA national conference in San Antonio last week. It was my first national writers conference, and I tried to wring something out of every moment (with some breaks to rest since I am six months pregnant). Here’s a visual diary of the week, in which I met so many interesting people and learned something new what seemed like once a minute. Looking forward to next year’s conference already!

The RWA Nationals Drinking Game

Some might argue that quite enough imbibinggoes on at the RWA National conference without introducing a drinking game into the mix, but here’s my proposal.

Take a drink every time:

Someone mentions Tom Hiddleston, Robert Downey Jr., or Sherlock.
A romance author declares Lord of Scoundrels herfavorite romance novel. Take an extra drink if they mention the prologue.
You hear the phrase “save the cat.”
Someone tells the manuscript shoved under the toilet stall story.
You get asked “How’s your confere...
