Hi, all. It’s been a while since I’ve jumped in with a My Sexy Saturday post. But with BEAUTY AND THE BALLPLAYER set to release in mid-March and SLIDING INTO HOME in mid-April , it’s high time I get back in the habit. Blog hops like this are a fun Read more…
Feb. 8-9 was a weekend of firsts for me. I attended my first book signing and got my first mention in the Arizona Daily Sun. The book signing was Saturday down in Glendale, at the Chocolate Affaire. From 2 to 10 p.m., I had a spot at a table with at least Read more…
