Gentle Reader,
I’m close—so close!—to finishing the first draft of the third book in my The Legend of Four Soldiers quartet. It’s titled To Beguile a Beauty and features that mysterious Scot, Sir Alistair Munroe. I’m rather Pleased with how it’s shaping up. Now if I can just finish it!
I have several Exciting Bits of News to Impart this week:
• I have new FAQs up.
• I shall be participating in the annual “Readers for Life” Literacy Autographing at the RWA Conference in San Francisco.

Every year Romance Writers of America raises money for local adult literacy programs through their multi-author book signing at the national convention. To date RWA has raised almost a half million dollars! The Literacy Autographing is open to the public—you do not have to be registered at the conference to attend—and will be on July 30, 2008, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the San Francisco Marriott hotel. I hope to see you there!
• I am giving away an autographed copy of The Leopard Prince—which has finaled in the RITA—In my website contest this month.
• Bookmarks for To Seduce a Sinner, my November book, have arrived! Bookmarks are free, so order as many as you’d like. I’ve also posted the first scene from To Seduce a Sinner.
Yours Most Sincerely,

Gentle Reader,
Summer has arrived and with it blooms—and weeds—in my garden. I hope that you’ve had time to read To Taste Temptation, but if you haven’t, please check out the excerpt on the Books page. I’ve also posted an interview with the hero of To Taste Temptation, Sam Hartley, on the Extras page, and you’ll also find a new research article on Josiah Wedgwood and Queensware on the Extras page.
Sprechen Sie Deutsch? If you do, take a look at my new German Language Page. The Raven Prince is being released in German this month!
I’m off to battle the weeds in my garden.
Yours Most Sincerely,
