Many thanks to CataRomance for choosing The Millionaire’s Misbehaving Mistress as one of its Reviewer’s Choice winners for 2009!

I’m still floating from the news that Magnate’s Mistress…Accidentally Pregnant! hit the USA Today Bestseller List at a very respectable #93! Added to the great reviews this book is getting, I have to say I have the goofiest smile on my face most of the time these days.

Oh, I’m so excited it’s finally February and Magnate’s Mistress…Accidentally Pregnant! is on sale now! Yay! And, like that wasn’t enough, it debuted at #5 on the Borders/Waldenbooks bestseller list this week! I’m giddy. (Now I must roll all that excitement over into writing energy and get the new book finished!)

Boardroom Rivals, Bedroom Fireworks! is still available at the Mills and Boon UK site, and just went on sale on the Mills and Boon Australia site. Brenna and Jack will make their US debut in October. (I don’t know if I can wait that long…)

Happy New Year, Everyone! I hope you had a happy holiday season and that you’re off to a fab start in 2010.

2010 is already a great year for me! Boardroom Rivals, Bedroom Fireworks! is out this month in the UK. This is my winery book, and it really challenged me as a writer. I can’t wait to hear what you think. In the US, Magnate’s Mistress…Accidentally Pregnant! is available now on eHarlequin.com and will hit the bookstore shelves in February.

Both books are guaranteed to warm you up in this cold season!

And I’m running the January/February contest for the Writing Playground. Click over to the Playground for details and how to enter.!

I’m so excited to officially announce that the follow-up book to The Millionaire’s Misbehaving Mistress has been accepted. So many of you fell in love with Evie—the sister of my hero, Will Harrison—that I had to write her her own happily-ever-after. Evie’s story is called What Happens In Vegas… and will be an August 2010 release in the UK (US date is still TBD).

For those of you in the UK, Boardroom Rivals, Bedroom Fireworks! is now available on the Mills & Boon website! Yay!

I love seeing the covers of foreign translations…

The Millionaire’s Misbehaving Mistress is out in France this month as Liaison Sous Tension in a 2-in-1 with Yvonne Lindsay. The cover is very pretty, but I think it’s really for Yvonne’s book, as MMM is set in Dallas and no one is pregnant!

The Secret Mistress Arrangement is out in Germany as Und plötzlich ist es Liebe!, which my German friend tells me means “and suddenly it was love!”

Should you find a translation or a release of one of my books somewhere, please let me know!

After a long absence (sorry!), I’m back with news and updates.

First of all, a big thanks to everyone for putting The Millionaire’s Misbehaving Mistress on the Borders/Waldenbooks Bestselling list for two weeks in October! I love that book, and I’m tickled so many other people do as well!

Magnate’s Mistress… Accidentally Pregnant! is now available in Australia. And here’s the cover for the US edition (Feb 2010). I also have the cover for my January UK release, Boardroom Rivals, Bedroom Fireworks! Bikinis seem to be a theme for my covers… as are the gorgeous men!

I just turned in my fifth book—a sequel to The Millionaire’s Misbehaving Mistress starring Evie, the hero’s little sister and the heroine’s protégée. No title or specific release date yet (sometime 2010), but I hope to have that info for you soon.

Harlequin, though, has all kinds of exciting things going on for fans of fabulous romance. Harlequin is looking for Ambassadors to provide feedback and promote the genre. It’s a free program — with free books!. It’s also time for the annual Harlequin Romance Report and they want to hear from you! Harlequin has a new blog, where you’ll get all the latest news about all the Harlequin lines and lots of great contests. AND as part of Harlequin’s anniversary celebration, they’ve joined with FlowerPot Press to reproduce vintage covers on notebooks and postcards, and they are re-releasing six vintage Harlequin books from the 1940s.

It’s out! It’s out! The Millionaire’s Misbehaving Mistress is officially on shelves in a bookstore near you! Squee!

Perfect, polite… and passionate!

As Dallas’s most eligible bachelor and heir to his family’s fortune, billionaire Will Harrison knows how to handle the paparazzi—but his little sister Evie is a worry…

Miss Behavior, etiquette expert Gwen Sawyer, has only three weeks to work her magic on Evie before a society ball, and so moves into Will’s luxurious penthouse. However, she discovers too late that etiquette is the last thing on devilishly handsome Will’s mind…

I’m out in a 2-in-1 with the fab Robyn Grady this month in Italy. According to Google Translate (which is rapidly becoming my best friend on the internet) the duet is Seductive Agreement and The Secret Mistress Arrangement becomes Seven Days of Desire. Foreign editions are so cool!

It seems I’ve spent most of the summer either on the go or deep in my cave writing. The current manuscript is due to my editor at the end of September, so I think I’ll plan a couple of weeks in October to just relax and recharge. That’s the plan; we’ll have to see how it works out! I’m very excited to have been invited to some great places this fall – I hope you’ll be able to make one of the events (and if you do, please make sure to say hi!) — so I’m already thinking extended vacation time may be out of the question.

Magnate’s Mistress… Accidentally Pregnant! is officially out in the UK! Yay! I love this book, and I had so much fun writing it. I can’t wait to hear what y’all think of Chris and Ally’s story.
