September 2010

What an exciting summer. Meeting old friends and making new friends at the national Romance Writers' conference in Orlando this summer was just amazing - and I think the picture at the head of this letter goes some way to show what a fun time we had.

I returned home to discover that the second book in my sheikh duet, Master of the Desert had also made it into the USA Today charts, which is a fabulous tribute to you, my readers, for your wonderful support and enthusiasm.

Coming up soon is my exciting Maharaja hero, Ram, in Maharajas Mistress, a UK November release for Modern Heat. This book took me to an exotic land I had never dreamed I might visit, and which proved to be an endless source of wonder with its unbounded riches of art, culture, music, history, culinary delights, and truly beautiful people.

Hot on delicious Ram's heels, comes Gray Quinn, my enigmatic biker boy hero - who may or may not be just as hot, young and dangerous in the sixties as he is the second decade of the twenty-first century.

Gray Quinn's Baby was one of my most challenging and exciting books to write to date - I had an absolute ball recreating that era with the fabulous music, and the way men and women behaved around each other - not to mention the lack of all those little luxuries you and I take for granted—like a phone that doesn't wrap a cord around your ankle, or underwear that doesn't truss you up like a chicken (actually, some of those sixties ideas, weren't so bad ;-)

Can my twenty-first century heroine handle a nineteen sixties unreconstructed man?

Yes.

And I can promise you she has plenty of fun doing so.

It only remains to me to wish you all the very best of success and happiness, and of course happy reading for the month of September,
