#ThrowbackThursday & ONE LAST NIGHT #Giveaway

Wow, is this week flying by! Today’s Throwback Thursday is to yesterday when I got a surprise and was able to go see the filming of the Rachel Ray show! Actually part of one show and then a whole show. What we taped yesterday will be on air on October 24 and November 6. I must set my DVR to tape the shows and see if we’re visible. Actually, my sis got to ask a question on one of the shows, so I know for sure that she’s visible.

As for the ONE LAST NIGHT giveaway, visit with me at Bitten by Books for a chance to win a $25 gift card! Yeah! I’ll be there until October 25. You can use this link to visit: http://bit.ly/1ykPKSL

#Throwback Thursday #Halloween

I love Halloween and it’s not just the paranormal romance author in me that loves it. It’s the kid who couldn’t wait to dig through the family closets to try and put together an outfit to go out and get some tricks or treats. I loved the fantasy of it, of pretending to be something that I wasn’t.

I love decorating for Halloween and greeting the kids at the door, usually with something costumey on. One of my fondest memories is of answering the door with a wolf paw on one hand and a fake bloodied bandage on the other. An adorable little princess was on the other side and she looked at me wide-eyed and said, “I think you need to go to the doctor.” LOL!

Today’s Throwback Thursday is a shot of my house with the Halloween decorations. We had a lot of kids that year, including that little princess, I think. I’m hoping we’ll have more kids this year. Last year was kind of a disappointment.

#ThrowbackThursday My Very First Book!

As I’ve mentioned, it’s been 15 years since my very first release, NOW AND ALWAYS! It was so exciting to get “The Call” from the editor saying that they wanted not only that book, but a second. Wow!

I was totally doing the happy dance that day. To celebrate today, NOW AND ALWAYS is free at various locations and is part of the specially priced SOUTH BEACH SIZZLES COLLECTION, now only .99 cents for the month of September.

Today’s throwback is to the cover of RT Magazine which featured NOW AND ALWAYS on the cover. I’m told the very sexy man on the cover is none other than well-known cover model John DeSalvo. I remember the first time my boss saw the cover. He said, “It’s very . . . pink.” I guess he didn’t know what else to say although he’s been a good egg about my writing gig over the last 15 years.

Thanks to RT Book Reviews Magazine! All rights to this cover belong to them.

#ThrowbackThursday My Best Friend

There can be no doubt about it. My best friend is my daughter! No matter what we do together, we have an awesome time and I’m blessed that she’s a part of my life.

This is a photo of the two of us at a Mets game. Baseball is one of our favorite things and the Mets are our team. Yes, it’s tough, especially in the last few years, but we hang in there!

We also love many of the same things, like cooking, traveling and writing. I think I’ve mentioned that my daughter wrote her first book, FOLLOWING JANE, and we published it last year. She’s finished a second book and I can’t wait to read that one!

#ThrowbackThursday Caridad & Selina SINS OF THE FLESH #FreeRead

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve re-released SINS OF THE FLESH and please remember, if you bought the print book from Amazon, you can now get the e-book for FREE!

SINS OF THE FLESH (and the other novels in the Sin Hunters series) would not have been possible without my fabulous editors at Grand Central Publishing, Selina McLemore and Latoya Smith. THANK YOU!

This is a photo of Selina and me at the 2012 RT Convention! Selina was a wonderful supporter of my work and if you’re wondering if she inspired the name for Adam’s mom, you’d be totally correct.

#ThrowbackThursday My Fan Girl Moment with Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts is one of my favorite writers, not only because she is AMAZING, but because she is such a nice, down-to-earth individual. I’ve always seen her treat her fans like friends and never ungraciously.

I got my most amazing fan girl moment when I was invited to take part in a book signing at the Turn the Page Bookstore where I got to sit next to Nora!! OMG! It was all I could do to contain my squee of excitement.

And being a gracious lady, she was willing to pose with me and Spottie who was hanging out with me on my way to the 2012 RITA party where I was a finalist in the paranormal category for THE LOST.

You can see more photos from that book signing weekend here:

#Throwback Thursday #JerseyShore Inspiration

So sorry to miss you yesterday, but it was a crazy day! I’m getting so many things ready for you, like ONE SPECIAL NIGHT, the next novella in the Take a Chance series, the SOUTH BEACH SIZZLES boxed set with all 4 books set in that location and last but not least, a re-release of SINS OF THE FLESH. Whew.

So today is kind of a mix of Write Wednesday and Throwback Thursday! The throwback is photos of these Jersey Shore homes pre-Sandy. During my strolls along the boardwalk, I got ideas for the locations and homes for all of the SIN HUNTER series as well as the beachside mansion in ONE SPECIAL NIGHT where, as you can guess, something very special is going on at the start of the book. I won’t say what and spoil it if you haven’t read JUST ONE NIGHT yet.

To see some more of my Jersey Shore inspiration and throwback photos, you can check out this album!
