Is it Tuesday yet?

Julie James's latest book Love Irresistibly hits bookstores this coming Tuesday, April 2. I've been looking forward to this since around last April, when I finished her then just released About that Night. Her books are seriously addictive. Every new release finds me rushing to the bookstore and snatching it up the day it comes out and devouring it the same day, followed by days and months of berating myself for reading too quickly that I have to wait another year to get a fresh story.

Luckily, I'm in love with all of her books and they are some of my favorite re-reads. Last week after I posted about Something about You on sale in e-book form for $1.99 here, I snuggled up with a glass of wine and my Kindle and re-acquainted myself with one of my favorite romance heroes, Jack Pallas. Of course I couldn't stop there and downloaded Practice Makes Perfect immediately and fell in love with Payton and J D all over again.

Now I'm bouncing around plotting how I can make it to the bookstore Tuesday and when I can have some quiet time with Love Irresistibly. 




HE’S USED TO GETTING WHAT HE WANTS…

A former football star and one of Chicago’s top prosecutors, Assistant U.S. Attorney Cade Morgan will do anything to nail a corrupt state senator, which means he needs Brooke Parker’s help. As general counsel for a restaurant company, she can get a bug to the senator’s table at one of her five-star restaurants so the FBI can eavesdrop on him. All Cade has to do is convince Brooke to cooperate—and he’s not afraid to use a little charm, or the power of his office, to do just that.

AND WHAT HE WANTS IS HER.

A savvy businesswoman, Brooke knows she needs to play ball with the U.S. Attorney’s office—even if it means working with Cade. No doubt there’s a sizzling attraction beneath all their sarcastic quips, but Brooke is determined to keep things casual. Cade agrees—until a surprising turn of events throws his life into turmoil, and he realizes that he wants more than just a good time from the one woman with whom he could fall terrifyingly, irresistibly in love . .

And the winner is....

Congratulations to Alisia for winning a hardback copy of An Echo in the Bone by Diana Gabaldon!

Thank you to everyone who entered!

Happy Spring!

Happy First day of Spring! Have you signed up to win a copy of Diana Gabaldon's An Echo in the Bone yet??

Since I've been gone so long and it's coming up on my one year blog anniversary, I want to have some fun and do a giveaway.

Around Christmas time, I was out shopping with my brother and as I always do, I stopped at the discount book table in a store. I was shocked to see hardcover copies of Diana Gabaldon's An Echo in the Bone  on the table and only selling for $2.99! Although I have multiple copies of this book, I couldn't just let it sit there so I snatched it up, planning to give it away. Now here's my chance.

Outlander fans everywhere are anticipating the release of Written in My Own Heart's Blood sometime later this year and many of us will be re-reading the series before the release date so I'm giving away a hardback copy of An Echo in the Bone ( Book 7 in the series). If you are already a fan and just want a new copy, don't have a copy, or you haven't read the series and would like to, sign up below!

Romance goodies

Here are two nice treats on the day before Spring starts:

Julie James' novel, Something About You is currently priced at $1.99 for the e-book version only. Even if you already have a paperback, for $1.99 it's a steal to load onto your Kindle or Nook. This is my favorite JJ book so I already snatched my e-book copy.
Here's the link from Julie's Facebook page.

Fate has thrown two sworn enemies...

Of all the hotel rooms rented by all the adulterous politicians in Chicago, female Assistant U.S. Attorney Cameron Lynde had to choose the one next to 1308, where some hot-and-heavy lovemaking ends with a death. And of all the FBI agents in Illinois, it had to be Special Agent Jack Pallas who gets assigned to this high-profile homicide. The same Jack Pallas who still blames Cameron for a botched crackdown three years ago—and for nearly ruining his career.

Into each other's arms...

Work with Cameron Lynde? Are they kidding? Maybe, Jack thinks, this is some kind of welcome-back prank after his stint away from Chicago. But it's no joke; the pair is going to have to put their rocky past behind them and focus on the case at hand. That is, if they can cut back on the razor-sharp jibes—and smother the flame of their sizzling-hot sexual tension.

Synopsis from Goodreads.

Jill Shalvis continues the fabulous Lucky Harbor series this Spring/Summer. The first book in the new trilogy is titled It Had to Be You. Right now when you pre-order an e-book version of the book, you will get a bonus copy of Blue Flame(part of an old firefighter trilogy). Available from Amazon and Barnes and Noble (not sure of other retailers).

Ali Winters is not having a good day. Her boyfriend left her, everyone in town thinks she's a thief, and now she's about to be kicked out of her home. Her only shot at keeping a roof over her head and clearing her name is to beg for help from a police detective who's as sexy as he is stern....

After a high-profile case goes wrong, Luke Hanover returns to his hometown for some peace and quiet. Instead he finds a bombshell brunette in a heap of trouble. As he helps Ali put her world back together, the pieces of Luke's own life finally seem to fall into place. Is this the start of a sizzling fling? Or are Luke and Ali on the brink of something big in a little town called Lucky Harbor?

Quote of the Day

It's so hard to pick just one, so here are two quotes from the Outlander series on this dreary Monday:

He took both my hands in his, then, and kissed them---the left, which still bore the gold ring of my marriage to Frank, and then the right, with his own silver ring.
      "Da mi basia mille," he whispered, smiling. Give me a thousand kisses. It was the inscription inside my ring, a brief quotation from a love song by Catullus. I bent and gave him one back. "Dien mille altera," I said. Then a thousand more.

Drums of Autumn,Chapter 9: Two Thirds of a Ghost

"I love you, a nighean donn. I have loved ye from the moment I saw ye, I will love ye 'til time itself is done, and so long as you are by my side, I am well pleased wi' the world."
The Fiery Cross Chapter 99: Brother

I've barely been plugged into my laptop in the past month. I'm so behind on my books news and writing but I'm back and will be updating more in the next week.
