Congratulations, MicheleAnn!
I know a number of you were hoping to win the memory box, but don’t fret. I’ve made two others! You’ll have a chance to win one during the Brenda Novak Auction and starting on May 1 for the release party for THE CLAIMED.
Wow was the first word that came to mind when the representative from the Romance Writers of America® called to say that THE LOST was a finalist for the RITA in the Paranormal Romance category.
Wow! The RITA is the equivalent of an OSCAR in the romance world and my book is a finalist. Wow.
(Can you tell I am still in disbelief and shock and sooooo excited!)
Thank you to RWA and all the judges who took the time to read THE LOST. Thank you to all the final judges who will take their time to read the book.
Many thanks to all of you who have read it and let me know how much you liked it and also, a big thanks to my editors. I hope you will like the second book in the SIN HUNTER series, THE CLAIMED (May 2012), as well.
Wow. A big congrats to all the other RITA finalists as well as all the Golden Heart finalists. I see the names of many friends on both and am totally excited for you! If you want to check out who else is nominated, you can click here to see the list.
Anaheim, here I come!
There’s a new face I’ve been seeing around lately – model David Gandy! I could so picture David as Christopher Sombrosa from THE CLAIMED.
It’s a shame it’s in black and white and you can’t see his amazing blue eyes. I just love dark-haired men with light eyes. Sigh.
Thanks to Technical Director Regan Hall for sharing this with us on Youtube.
