So how many of you have been a bridesmaid? And how often has the bride told you "And you can wear the dress again!"
Every single time!

Well, today over at Limecello's blog, I prove that you can indeed wear that gown again. And again. And again. Go see where I wore mine (hint: "I'm on a horse").

A Little Bit Tart, A Little Bit Sweet

I was invited to have a book signing at the Paseo Verde Library in Henderson, and with the switching over of the new blog, I never posted about it!

So, here are a few of the pictures from the event.

This is the flyer I stumbled upon one day (I was soo excited!)









And the Day Dreaming book blog devoted a whole week to me!

You can read a fun interview with me here, an interview with some of my characters from my novella Highland Games here, a re-cap of the signing here, and a wonderful review of Highland Destiny here.

Hey everyone! There's a blog hop starting March 17th over at Sam, Elena & Rhonda's Awesomeness and there will be some crazy cool prizes from authors Debra Anastasia, Rachel Firasek, C.J. Roberts, Carolyn Crane, Kallypso Masters, J.A. Saare, EL James Bella Andre,Rosalie Lario, S.C. Stephens, Lisa Beth Darling, and of course, ME! Stop by, join in the fun, and try your luck!




"As passionate readers, every now and again we come across Small Press, or independent authors who are passionate, creative, and are interested in having a fun time exploring. They have such a strong voice to emphasize how much they love to write, and they take the risk of putting their work out here in the world to be loved or criticized.


Readers love a good story, whether it's revealed in poetry, fiction or creative nonfiction. We are interested in fresh, fun, quirky voices. We have a huge soft spot for writers who haven't been accepted by major publishing companies, but we recognize their talents. So here, our goal is to make a difference and share with other readers / bloggers just how awesome "Small Press" and "Independent" authors truly are.

Here at SER's we have had the distinct pleasure to read some really fantastic books by these authors, and we are excited about this hop, and putting the spotlight on them."

So now that the new site has been live for about a week, now, what does everyone think?

I'll have to think of a fun giveaway or something to do.

In the meantime, you can find me at Got Fiction for What Makes a Hero? and there's also a giveaway of Highland Destiny and Donna Grant's newest Shadow Highlander over at Why we Love Highlanders




My Author Override is still live at Under the Covers, so there's another chance to win Highland Destiny there too.

The book signing last night was a blast! thank you to all who showed up, and stopped by my table. I'll post pictures here as soon as I download them from my camera, but you can always go to my facebook page if you want to see the ones I posted there.

 

Here is the direct link to the hop: http://samsawesomness.blogspot.com/2012/01/small-press-treasures-blog-hop-giveaway.html?spref=tw

Hi guys,

On January 23rd, 2012, I'm doing a booksigning at the Paseo Verde library in Henderson--
280 S. Green Valley Parkway
Henderson, NV 89012
(702) 492-7252

I am so excited, and would love your help spreading the word. This is only my second booksigning and I'm nervous as can be, so come support me so I don't look lonely at my table. I'll also be selling copies of Highland Destiny there as well. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

And in just as exciting news, there's a great new review of Highland Destiny over at Day Dreaming which you can read HERE



My favorite line is "Two simple words can sum it up—LOVED IT! Connor MacRae is a wickedly sexy highlander who knows how to make me purr..."

As some of you guys may have noticed, on twitter, I've been the "Fabio Hussy" for the past couple weeks. I thought I'd share why. I found this book for cheap and cracked up at the fact that Fabio is the author. Well, I just had to read it. My friends teased me to no end, I still get random Fabio tweets (I'm lookin' at you, Ren, Ang, and Annie). So in case any of my lovely followers were wondering about the Fabio avatar, this review should sum it all up:

Dangerous by Fabio

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


Oh Fabio, Why oh why did you decide to write?



The front page says "In Collaboration with Wendy Corsi Straub" so we know Fabio didn't actually write this book, but the best part is that he wrote more than just one book!



I can't do this book justice in a review, so I'm posting all my tweets and status updates as a review for you guys. (I saw this review here and had to pick it up when I saw it for a dime)



My review, sort of:



The cover: The bike and leather tells me he's Dangerous, but the sexy Fabio abs tell me he's sexy too



I see nothing but the smoldering look he's giving me..read me, love me, I am Italian studmuffin Fabio



Fabio thinks Fabio has sexy abs. You want to touch Fabio. Come here and run your fingers on Fabio









*yes all that mane of hair that blows in the non-existent wind.



*I think Fabio's manly sexiness was too much and she swooned



*this book is so awful, but soo funny



*No! I haven't met him, but if I ever see Fabio I will talk to him in only third person "Laurie loved Fabio's book. Laurie would like a pic"



*anyone who thinks Fabio actually wrote this is crazy. We all know he stood around looking all Fabio-ish in his open Pirate shirt, showing his man cleavage and wearing leather pants while some poor woman tried to make sense of his words.



*I can't take Fabio seriously, I just can't!



*I'm sad, not once has anyone said "I can't believe it's not butter"



*Fabio thinks Fabio has sexy abs. You want to touch Fabio. Come here and run your fingers on Fabio



*it reminds me of a Saturday night live skit. It's like the book makes fun of Fabio and he's so intense and serious about it!!



*Fabio knows romance-I give the ladies not just 1 but 2 Fabios! because if 1 Fabio is sexy, 2 Fabios are double the sexy



"please, let me make love to you." her reply was a single heated word:"Yes." oh the cheesy Fabioness of it



This was a super fun read. Oh, don't get me wrong the writing was awful, and Fabio's ideas of what passes for a romance novel + romantic suspense plot were just crazy, but it was so fun to read. If you see this one for cheap, pick it up for the tongue-in-cheek entertainment value.



Dont' take this book seriously, you will be disappointed.
