The release of On Best Behavior is less than one month away! *jumps up and down* Here's a glimpse of what's inside--an excerpt from Chapter 5: "Con Tequila". Lurching awake on the sofa, Sophie scanned the darkened apartment. All was quiet except for the rasp of her breaths as she tried to orient herself. Then there was the noise that must have stirred her from sleep—a scratching at the door. She heard a slight clink of metal, the crunch of a key jamming into the lock, and harsh cursing from the hallway. Was a Barberi thug trying to break into the apartment? She was fully awake now. Soundlessly she crept toward the front door, halting at the clang of keys dropping on the hallway carpet. More swearing ensued, and her heart leaped to her throat. She was almost to the peephole when a soft chuckle floated through the door. Relief flooded her. She’d recognize that sound anywhere. Yanking open the door, she had to look down to find Grant crouching at h...

Thanks to Ciara Knight and Ninja Alex Cavanaugh for this clever blogfest! Here are the guidelines: Post about a book you’ve noticed. You can choose a book that you’ve read, something you saw on a blog or social media site, Goodreads, or a sales website. Anything that caught your eye because of a great cover, blurb or reviews, but DON’T tell the author that their book has been noticed. Instead, shout out on social media sites, and encourage others to do the same, until the author finds his/her book. Leave a blog comment at Ninja Captain Alex or Ciara Knight when the author finds their book.  I've actually noticed TWO books recently (hopefully that's not cheating?) First, I met author Kyra Lennon on the A to Z Blog Challenge in April, when she posted compelling excerpts about a soccer romance (I love sports romances.) Then I blink and suddenly her debut novel Game On had already been released! How could I have missed it? That cover bends it like...
