Well, it's been a bit of a crazy month. I was so glad to get back home and out of hospital - but the convalescence took much longer than I ever expected. And then there was Christmas, New Year, my son's birthday, We celebrated that by going to stay with him and his fiancée and I thoroughly enjoyed walking the brand new family member - the grand-dog - on a freezing, windswept beach. (Yes, I know it doesn't sound like fun - but it was!)
Now I'm trying to catch up in all way - revisions on the latest story being the most important. My brooding Spanish hero is faced with meeting Rose, the woman who turned his life upside down ten years ago - and is now doing that all over again.
Today I'm blogging over at Tote Bags N Blogs - talking about my 'determinations' for 2016. Not resolutions but things I'm determined to do more of in 2016.
Oh, and I'm thrilled to discover that one of my 2015 title Olivero's Outrageous Proposal is
now reprinted in the collection 12 Best of the Year for Modern Romance. That's something that got my year off to a good start!
Important PS - for my lovely Australian readers - with special thanks to Helen (see comments) whose comment reminded me that I need to say this.
The book of mine that appears in the Best of The Year collection - Olivero's Outrageous
Helen has read it already because she had an advanced copy for an unbiased review - and she gave it this wonderful review - and it was posted as a Featured Book on the Australian Romance Readers Association web site - here
Part of that review said:
This is such an emotionally powerful story of revenge, desire and a marriage of convenience as two people learn a lot of truths about family. The setting is just wonderful—a villa in Tuscany, Villa D’Oro, where many sensual nights are spent together and lots of discussions take place. Love grows stronger by the day, but there are still a few hurdles to cross until they reach their wonderful HEA. This is a story that will pull you in from the first page and keep you turning the pages until the end. I loved this one and highly recommend it.
Thank you so much Helen - and the ARRA
