New Year, New Release

Today sees the release of The Diamond Virgin from Wings ePress. This was my very first contracted book, so it's very special to me.

The Diamond Virgin tells the story of Paige Frasier, an English photojournalist. Rebuilding her career following her father’s death, Paige is blackmailed into covering the latest tabloid scandal involving a press-hating billionaire. She isn’t prepared for the secrets of the past that threaten her fragile peace, or for the devastating attraction to the one man who holds the key to her future.

Happy New Year to all.

Phew!

Life has been hectic. I'm eagerly awaiting the final sign-off for The Diamond Virgin which releases from Wings ePress in January 2008. This was the first book I had contracted and so it's very special to me.

I've also just finished galleys for my forthcoming release with The Wild Rose Press. Now all I'm waiting on is the release date for A Temporary Arrangement - very exciting.

But just in case you think I'm getting some slack-off time ... I've already received first edits on the May 2008 release with Samhain, so now I'll need to get cracking on Satin Lies.

Strange woman that I am, I just love the editing process. Revisiting the story is always fun, but it's the strenthening of the work, the tightening, the stripping down to the basics that really lights me up. There's always so much to learn. Plus, I've been incredibly lucky to work with such awesome editors who really know their stuff, and yet are patient, kind and understanding. I hope they're all planning on taking a long and relaxing break over the holidays. They deserve it.

Beside the sea ...
