Hot Date is out now -- feels like it's been a while since I had a book on the shelves! Here's a peek.



NEEDED: ONE HOT MAN...

Soon-to-be ex-husband in the rearview mirror. Hometown straight ahead. Grace Lamb at the wheel, beginning a whole new life in an about-to-drop-dead old VW bus. She plans to start a gardening business in the charming hamlet of Wrightsville, PA, and put her green thumb to good use. Hey, why not? Flower, ferns, even plain old grass like her…they really like her. What could go wrong? Everything, once the bus breaks down and a local cop pulls over to help. One luck through the windshield and Grace is feeling lucky again. The man in blue is none other than Nick Griffin, her former childhood crush, all grown up and looking incredibly handsome and sexy. Yes, officer, there is a problem…

WHO'S READY FOR ROMANCE     

At last. Something to do. Wrightsville isn’t the most exciting beat, despite nabbing the hardened criminal who stole the library’s Harry Potter collection. Nick can’t take his eyes off the drop-dead gorgeous redhead with the broken-down VW bus. Grace’s looks may have changed for the better (way better) since she was a kid following Nick and her big brother around, but he’s about to find out that she still gets into the strangest scrapes. And from messing with the mob over a bunch of vintage sex toys (don’t ask) to making Nick forget that he has a brain when she happens to touch him, Grace still drives him crazy. Except now he’s falling crazy in love…

Stay tuned for reviews, what I was listening to when I wrote this, why Hot Date is the wrong title (heh), and excerpts...

Oh, man. I really want to read this.

(In fact, have added it to my Amazon cart.)

OMG, it really HAS been forever, hasn't it? I remember reading your proposal for this.

I'm so glad it's out, babe! When I can breathe again, it's off to the bookstore with me.

Damn, I suck -- this post reminded me that, though it is on my shelf 10 feet away, I have yet to read "Room Service."

We leave for vacation 2 weeks from today; I'll bring it to the beach with me, along with [livejournal.com profile] snurri's Superpowers -- it'll be a Buffista-author-tastic vacation!

Aw! I think I replied by email instead of here earlier. The heat has fried my brain.

You wouldn't believe how many unread books I have sitting around. I suck MORE. (I still haven't finished HP7, for god's sake.)

I know nothing of this "Superpowers"! Now I have to go see what it's all about!

HOW DID YOUR CHILDREN GET THAT BIG?!

So cute, babe, oh my GOD. Hope is all well -- I've been a terrible correspondent, I know.

I think I asked about it a while ago, because I wanted to read the book based on the cover! I think you said the cover was better than the content, though. :-(

Ah, The Calligrapher, yes. I am tempted to send you my copy but the damn cover is just sooo pretty. Maybe I should keep the dust jacket and let the book come visit you. It was ... not as good as the cover and I wouldn't honestly rec *buying* it, but you could *read* it...

Well ... they don't actually go on a date! They go out to dinner at one point, with friends, but it's not really a date, you know? Not a getting-to-know-you, nervous and wondering and attracted thing. So.

But hey! It's a title.
