Guilty Pleasure Monday – Tom Welling

First of all, I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving weekend! I had a wonderful time seeing family and friends as well as getting in a ton of writing on the new books that are due soon.

There has been a lot of talk about who should be the choice for the new SUPERMAN movie that’s in the works and for me, there is only one choice: Tom Welling.

He’s handsome and nicely built. He plays Superman in the SMALLVILLE series and it only seems about time that he be allowed to grow up and become the adult Superman. He’s perfect for the role.

How do you feel about a possible new Superman movie? Any thoughts on who you would like to fill the shoes of the super hero?

Wicked Wednesday – THE LOST and some good news!

Today is a very exciting day! I’ve got some good news for all of you who like my Nocturne novels. Nocturne has just acquired three novellas from me for their BITES collections. Even more exciting, one of the stories will feature Diana Reyes and Ryder Latimer, two of my favorites. For those of you who have read FATE CALLS in HOLIDAY WITH A VAMPIRE and FURY CALLS, you may have a clue on what might be happening in this story.

Other good news in case you’ve missed it is that the SINS series will be expanding with the addition of the Hunters, a unique race locked in a life and death battle to survive. The first book in the SIN HUNTER series, THE LOST, will be available in August 2011 and will have some exciting new characters for you with wickedly interesting powers. (You’ll get to see just one of them in this little teaser I’m posting for you today!). You will see some familiar names, including another member of the Carrera family – Bobbie – a Marine who has been wounded in Iraq and has come home to heal both her physical and emotional wounds.

So without further ado, here’s a little wickedness from THE LOST.

Fun Friday – Go Elf Yourself!

Yes, it’s back and while I normally make it a point to not leap over Thanksgiving to get to Christmas, for some reason this year I find myself doing just that. Getting the e-mail announcement about ELF YOURSELF returning did not help.

So please pardon me for jumping the gun, but I just could not resist! Hope you enjoy this Fun Friday rendition of me having a little holiday fun, surfing style. Seemed somehow appropriate since both SINS OF THE FLESH and STRONGER THAN SIN are set down the Jersey Shore.

Wicked Wednesday – ARE YOU STRONG ENOUGH?

To that I have to say – today I am not! Sorry not to have an excerpt for you, but I am swamped with work and writing deadlines. I will be back tomorrow. In the meantime, I’ve been busy hopping around the blogosphere and there are a ton of places you can visit for more info on STRONGER THAN SIN and some giveaways here and there. Take a moment to visit one of these spots on the ARE YOU STRONG ENOUGH BLOG tour.

Wicked Wednesday – Wicked Dangerous Women!

Today is a slightly different Wicked Wednesday since I’m going to be offering you up some news and excerpts from my wonderful friends at www.dangerwomenwriting.com!

So first up in no particular order is:

Lisa Renee Jones‘ contribution – AMBER FIRE – to the SEXY BEAST 9 anthology hit shelves in September! Here’s a sexy little teaser from that novella:

Determined to defend her late father’s work, Amber Green heads into the heat of the Nevada canyons to prove the existence of the Yaguara, a shape-shifting race of jaguars. There she meets the one man more hell-bent on protecting the jaguars than she is: Jareth, a force of raw male nature to be reckoned with—an animal worth pursuing…


Jennifer Haymore
‘s SEASON OF SEDUCTION is on the shelves now! Congrats on 4.5 stars from RT BookClub. If you can’t see the excerpt below, you can click here to read more.


Want to be a little naughty for the holiday season? Then check out Cynthia Eden’s contribution – All I want for Christmas – in THE NAUGHTY LIST. Here’s a little teaser for you!

Good girl toy inventor Christie takes a walk on the naughty side when she sparks a no-strings fling with Santa—actually, sexy cop Jonas in a Santa suit. She loves her new “bad girl” persona, except as the holidays approach, she starts falling, and hard, for this known’ “love ’em and leave ’em” ladies man…

Last, but never least, a big WOO HOO to Donna Grant who received an RT BookClub Top Pick! and 4.5 stars for her November release, WICKED HIGHLANDER! Donna did a wicked trailer for it that you can watch here. If you can’t see the video below, you can click here to see it.

As for what’s up with me, you might wonder? Well, the countdown is on to STRONGER THAN SIN and I’m happy to say that RT BookClub gave it 4 stars and had this to say about it:

This second book in the SINS series follows SINS OF THE FLESH with an equally compelling and scintillating tale of mad scientists, devoted doctors and wounded warriors. There isn’t a thing missing in this imaginative and fast-paced love story.

Here’s a big THANK YOU 🙂 to RT for taking the time to review STRONGER THAN SIN!

I hope you loved learning a little bit more today about my fellow Dangerous Women! We have a great website for readers at www.dangerwomenwriting.com as well as a fabulous loop where we share all kinds of tidbits, contests and other goodies. Dare to be dangerous?
