I can hear some of you saying, “Who cares?” LOL. But for those who do or are just curious, I’m guest blogging (like I don’t blog enough, right?) over at Petit Fours and Hot Tamales about where I get the ideas for my historical romances and I’m also giving away a copy of SINFUL SURRENDER and an advance copy of A TASTE OF DESIRE.
Come back tonight, when I’ll be posting an actual blog and giving away more great books and posting the winner of the 3 Historicals for the Holidays.

In other news, wouldn’t you love to plot a Regency novella without actually writing it? Well you can and win a $1000 American Gift Card while you’re at it. What’s going on?
Four stories, four authors, one theme: that was the idea behind the bestselling anthology It Happened One Night. Now, Stephanie Laurens, Mary Balogh, Jacquie D’Alessandro and Candice Hern return to write four stories ultimately chosen by readers, in IT HAPPENED ONE SEASON.
Interested? Please visit www.ItHappenedOneSeason.com to suggest your story. It must take place during the Regency social season. And you must include three specific plot points (such as these used for the anthology It Happened One Night: (1) a couple meets at an inn 2) they had met before but not within the past ten years 3) the whole story takes place within a 24 hour period.)
