I have to admit that I've not been quite sure how to introduce Heidi Rice to you all. She's written some great books - and they all seem to have appeared in differently (named) lines!
So do I say she writes for Modern Extra/Modern Heat/RIVA/KISS . . . or Modern Tempted! (I think the last two are the current USA and UK names for the lines - so we'll go with those!)
I first met her at an RNA Awards lunch and I've been reading her work ever since. It doesn't matter what you call the lines she appears in, though though - whichever line she writes for, Heidi's books are great fun and sexy as can be.
So I'm delighted to welcome Heidi to my blog to tell you about the new name for KISS in the UK - and the special mini-series - The Wedding Season.
So here's Heidi:
First off a big congrats to Kate and the Babe Magnet... 40 years of togetherness is so AWESOME.
Have to admit I'm not quite there yet with my OH, but given our exceedingly low-key wedding - involving a weekend elopement to NYC and nuptials at Manhattan City Hall - I'm pretty impressed with how long our marriage has lasted.
As it happens, a very similar low-key wedding at Manhattan's wonderful Art Deco marriage bureau provides the setting for the big resolution scene in my next book for Harlequin KISS, Maid of Dishonor - the third book in The Wedding Season quartet which I wrote with the fabulous Aimee Carson, Amy Andrews and Kimberly Lang.
It's not my hero and heroine - gorgeous Southern hottie Carter Price & British bad girl Gina Carrington - who are getting married... But rather geeky astrologer Cassie Barkley and hunky ex-quarterback Sam Tucker - the hero and heroine from Amy Andrews super-sexy second book, The Girl Least Likely to Marry. But I couldn't think of a better place for Carter and Gina to finally declare their Happy Ever After - after their very rocky road to love and romance - than the place where I found mine!
If you want more info on the other books in the series you can check out our Wedding Season fanpage on Facebook.... Or our Wedding Season boards on Pinterest, featuring all sorts of fabulousness inspired by the stories of four former college roomies and how they found love, and re-found each other during one very eventful summer. And to get you in the mood you can also download Aimee Carson's FREE prequel novella, The Wedding Dress Diaries.
If you're not in the US, the books will be coming out in Modern Tempted (the new home of RIVA) starting in September!
I'll be giving away a copy of Maid of Dishonor to one lucky commentator on this wonderful Kate Walker Anniversary blog. All you have to do is answer the following question:What is the MOST romantic wedding ever and why?
It could be yours, a friend's, one you dreamt of doing one day, or even one you've seen on TV, in a movie, or read in a book. I'd love to know, as it might be great inspiration for my next book!
