\"IMG_2496\"<\/a>Hope you’re all having a wonderful summer (or winter if you’re Down Under!). It’s been lovely here in Cambridge, although it was super-hot in New York, when I was there for the Romance Writers of America conference.\u00a0Aside from having a great time in our home-away-from-home city, it was wonderful to meet so many readers in person and to hear how much you enjoy my Ice Cats<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You’ll be pleased to know that the next book is now revised and scheduled for release in Feb 2016<\/strong>. It has a title – A Perfect Compromise<\/strong><\/em><\/span>. And it is already up for pre-orders on Amazon. Here is the blurb:<\/p>\n

\"IMG_6135\"Theirs is a game of give-and-take\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Schoolteacher Issy Brandine has a plan to build a stable, secure future for herself. No settling for second-best. Anything more than a sultry Caribbean fling with hotshot hockey star Jean Baptiste Larocque isn’t part of the plan. A New Jersey Ice Cat with the ultimate hockey trophy in his sights won’t fit into her low-key lifestyle. Except a surprise pregnancy changes everything.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Issy knows her child deserves more than a part-time dad. With JB’s eyes on the championship that will redeem his career, compromise is out of the question. But love\u2014and the baby between them\u2014might prove that nothing is impossible.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Can’t wait until February? Don’t forget that you can still download my FREE<\/span> New Jersey Ice Cats<\/strong> shorts, A Perfect Party<\/strong><\/em><\/span> and A Perfect Lucky Charm<\/strong><\/em><\/span>, in the For Readers<\/strong> section of my website. A Perfect Lucky Charm<\/strong><\/em><\/span> won’t be available much longer, so don’t miss out.<\/p>\n

\"Cover2a-APerfectStorm\"<\/a>The reason I’ll be taking down A Perfect Lucky Charm<\/strong><\/em><\/span> is that I will have a series of new shorts soon. I plan to have one new short for you to download for FREE<\/strong><\/span> in October, November, December and January. Each story will only be available for that month, so be sure to download it while you can. There will be further details here soon\u00a0and also a full release schedule in my next newsletter – which you’ve already signed up for, right? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

To whet your appetite, here is the lovely cover for A Perfect Storm<\/strong><\/em><\/span>, the December short, which features hot Russian Vladimir ‘Vlad’ Ralinkov. Yes, the Russian Rocket gets his own short story!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"The_Carla_Award\"Last, but definitely not least, I’m thrilled and honoured to announce that A Perfect Trade<\/strong><\/em><\/span> is one of four finalists in the Carla Crown Jewel of Books Award for 2015<\/strong>, sponsored by the Mid-America Romance Authors.<\/p>\n
