____________

The things I do for you guys. Today, I went on a daring raid and *borrowed* Curran from Ilona Andrews' Livejournal. Under no circumstances is anyone to tell Ilona. We'll give him back...maybe *grin*

Oooh, look at those eyes.

Branded By Fire featuring another hot and brooding male, officially hits the shelves on Tuesday, woohoo!!

To celebrate the cyber-launch, today I'm giving away a copy of Touched By Light by Catherine Spangler, and a copy of Just the Sexiest Man Alive by Julie James. We chatted about Just the Sexiest Man Alive at this Friday Book Club :)

Entry rules are the same as Monday! Leave a comment answering the day's burning question and you're in. Bring a friend or spread the word about the party and I'll give you an extra entry or entries. Also, don't forget to let me know if you've already got one of the books.

And today's burning question - well, with all this testosterone on the blog today, it can really only be this: Who do you consider the sexiest man in the world?

Rugby Players & Links

Yes, rugby players. Swapping jerseys. Go forth and watch.

No need to thank me *grin*

Also, we've announced the winners of Yvonne Lindsay's giveaway (see the top of her guest blog).

And there's still time to enter the Branded By Fire ARC draw, so scroll down and drop your name in the hat if you haven't already.

Edited to add: Debut author and fellow Kiwi, Maree Anderson is giving away a pdf ARC of Even Demons Get the Blues (an erotic paranormal romance from Red Sage), over here.

Wednesday Wake-Up

I'm writing my heart out... But here's long, lean and gorgeous to keep you company :-)

Weekly Catchup

Sorry for being a bit AWOL on the blog the past few days, everyone. But, to make up for it, I have some photos to take you into the weekend. Thanks to Eva, I've discovered Luca Toni - I may now have to start watching football *grin*
Hope you all have a fabulous weekend! And don't forget to drop you name into the Meljean Brook giveaway if you haven't already.

Weekly Catchup

It's Friday already!! This week has just zipped by (though lazing in bed suddenly seems like an excellent option *grin*). I've been working on the proposal for the next Guild Hunter book (Angels' Blood will be the first one), plus the first draft of the next Psy/Changeling book. I'm also looking forward to the Oct 7 release of The Magical Christmas Cat.

What've you all been up to? Any weekend plans?

Galleys

I'm going over galleys today, so once more, here's the beautiful Eduardo to keep you company. Anyone for a swim? *g*

Look Into My Eyes

Or if you prefer, you can look into Eduardo's instead.

Gosh, I wonder what he's thinking? What do you all think?

Copy Edits / Message Boards

I'm doing copyedits for Caressed By Ice at the moment so if you email me and get no response, that is why. I also have three thousand other things to do but that's okay, because I have a list. I love lists. You can cross things off and feel a great sense of achievement.

Right, moving on - I've noticed lately that a lot of authors have message boards. Or maybe I'm just slow and people have always had them. I considered getting one myself for a while but then realized that timewise, if I got a board, the blog would have to go. I decided in favor of the blog, but what are your thoughts - blog or message board? Any preferences? What do you like about each/both?

p.s. The hunky picture of NK has nothing to do with anything except his gorgeousness. Happy Friday!

Covers Cont'd

Talking about covers, have you all heard of Nathan Kamp? Over the past year or two, he's been on so many covers he's become very well known.

Think you can spot him a mile away? Check out this fan site of Nathan Kamp Covers - you might be surprised at some of the covers he's graced.

Books Are Good For You ;)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope you all have a wonderful day filled with happiness.

I wanted a romantic topic for this post and as we've recently talked about favorite heroes from books as well as favorite movie songs, today I thought we'd talk about leading men.

Which leading man sets your heart thumping? Me? Ever since I saw him on Remington Steele, I've always had a crush on Pierce Brosnan. Those blue eyes, that smile...

Okay, your turn!

p.s. Here's a link to an interesting article in the Observer about The 50 Men Who Really Understand Women.
