Good morning to Bev and all of you this last day of August. Yesterday Mistress by Marriage officially hit the shelves. It’s the next-to-last in the Courtesan Court series, and the last “Mistress.” (There’s a “Master” coming in April—Master of Sin—but I don’t want to get ahead of myself, LOL) Marriage starts at an unusual place for a romance: Baron Edward Christie and Caroline Parker are already married, but they sure haven’t found their HEA anywhere but in bed. Here’s the back cover blurb:
Limecello, a fellow blogger runs a blog review site. She’s great people and she’s doing a wonderful thing by raising awareness about the famine in the Horn of Africa. Here’s her post and her mission is to help raise money for the Save the Children organization. Please comment on her post to help her in that effort. To that end, The Season will donate 50 cents for every comment on this post (maximum $50). So comment to help us reach our 100 comment goal. 
In other news, I’m still on tour and today I’m over at Petit Fours and Hot Tamales interviewing my hero, Viscount Derek Creswell (prideful, stubborn man!) and giving away a $15 eGift Certificate and a Grand Prize entry for the December 17th drawing to win an iPad 2. Would love it if you dropped by and said hi. Or talked some sense into Derek!
I’m popping in–I’ll be back to post something new this evening–to let you know I’ll be guest blogging at:
I hope you’ll stop by and say hi! I’ll be giving away $15 GC and a Grand Prize entry for the iPad 2 drawing December 17th.
Congratulations, ladies! Please email your snail mail address to me at contests at theseasonforromance dot com and don’t forget to include the title you won. You have one week to claim your prize.
In other news, I’m over at Romance at Random with Sue Grimshaw chatting about why I write and read historical romances. One random commenter will wina $15 GC from an etailer of choice.
I’m touring!!! Boy, I haven’t done this since…um…JANUARY!!! I’ll tell you this, not only is it hard work writing a book, it’s hard work marketing and promoting a book. But it’s all worth it.
Okay, so so far I have 7 Grand Prize entries for the iPad 2. These readers all accurately answered July’s 4 questions on my website. I’d like to increase that number significantly and to that end I’m going to raffle off 2 entries a week on this blog. I’m also going to raffle off entries at each of my blog guest posts as well as giving away other goodies. Here’s my schedule for this week:
July 14th (today) – The Romance Dish
July 16th (Saturday) – Romance at Random
I hope you’ll stop by and say hi!
Just popping in to say I’m over at Ashley March’s Blog chatting about the lure and lurve of series. She’s giving away 3 copies of A TASTE OF DESIRE–what a doll!!
I’m over in the Lair aka Romance Bandits today chatting about The Art of the Back Cover Blurb–how accurate or how inaccurate they can be sometimes. Stop by if you get a chance; they’re a terrific bunch of ladies.
I’m also way behind in posting reviews, so I’ll try to get one up today.
I had no idea I would be on 3 blogs today–but I am. 
The more the merrier, right? 
So here’s where I’ll be today, giving away my books and a Amazon GC.
1. Dear Author – First Sale – Giving away a $15 Amazon GC and both A TASTE OF DESIRE and SINFUL SURRENDER
2. Lynette’s Two Cents – Inside the Author Studio – Giving away a copy of A TASTE OF DESIRE
3. Book ♥ Soulmates – Giving away a copy of A TASTE OF DESIRE

I can now say for the next couple weeks I will be doing much guest blogging as I promote A TASTE OF DESIRE. Here’s a list of the days I’ll be blogging where. If you’re inclined to drop by and say hello, I’d appreciate the company. I’ll be giving away copies of my books.
