Happy Fall, Everyone!
As the leaves change and the mornings get chillier, all I can think of is what great books I can curl up with in front of a fire this winter. I’m happy to announce that my latest book will be available just in time.
This book is a new venture for me, into the new and exciting realm of e-books! I hope to share more about the process of getting an e-book published in the near future, but for now I’ll just say that Harlequin’s Carina Press is putting out some fabulous novels.
Check out the exciting excerpt!
Coming, October 11, 2010, from Carina Press, THE KISS TEST:
Margo Gentry’s life is perfect. She loves her job as a country music DJ, and she has a great boyfriend who accepts her need to avoid marriage and tolerates her Elvis obsession – even the velvet Elvis painting in their bedroom.
But then it all falls apart. The radio station changes formats and fires all the DJs. Margo’s boyfriend decides he wants kids and a house in the suburbs and kicks her to the curb. And to top it all off, her Mom is getting married — for the 11th time! — and expects Margo to be there as maid of honor.
With no job and no place to live, Margo has to bunk on the couch of her best friend Chris, whose revolving bedroom door has played host to half the women in New York – at least, the ones that pass his “kiss test.” Worse, he’s insisting she attend her mother’s wedding, and is personally driving her cross-country to ensure she shows up.
Forget about surviving the road trip – can their friendship survive The Kiss Test?
