Happy Monday Everyone!
Can you believe it's August already? This year has zipped by like a comet on a mission!
Did you read anything great last week? Can't wait to hear about it.
Now for some news. Putting on my Ella Grace hat for a moment to let you know that my publisher is giving away 50 copies of MIDNIGHT LIES over on Goodreads. (U.S. residents only) Be sure to enter soon as I think the deadline is 8/31. Here's the link: Midnight Lies Goodreads giveaway
Also, I'll be having some giveaways on my Ella Grace site soon, leading up to the release of MIDNIGHT LIES on September 24. Lots of books, gift cards, and a few surprises. Stay tuned!
Last week, on my Facebook page, I shared an excerpt of both NOTHING TO LOSE and RUNNING ON EMPTY, A Last Chance Rescue Novel. I don't think I posted the link for the LCR novel, so here it is. Let me know what you think. (It's the top post. And please ignore the typos!) Running On Empty excerpt
This past weekend, I filled out the art sheet for two books. I'm going to change the cover for CHANCES ARE in preparation for the upcoming LCR books as I want them all to have the same sort of look. If you love the current CHANCES ARE cover and haven't purchased it yet, be sure to do so within the next few weeks. Also, I'm preparing to choose the cover for the first book in my new series. I'm so excited about these two series and the plans I have for them. Can't wait to share more soon!
As you know, last Thursday, SWEET JUSTICE released in the UK. Congratulations to Lisa Parker and Ashely (who entered from the Goodread's blog link). Ladies, I'll be in touch with both of you on prize delivery.
No recommends from me today. I am about to dive into a new book that I believe will be a recommend. Hope to share it with you next week.
Okay, that's it for me today. I'm headed to Dallas to see what's up with Kennedy and Nick.
Have a great week all. Now tell us what we should be reading!

The
seventh novel in New York Times bestselling author Christy Reece's
addictive Last Chance Rescue series of sexy suspense and thrilling
adventure.
Honor Stone is a young, idealistic FBI agent when her path collides with Seth Cavanaugh. For a girl who has never walked on the wild side, the dark and dangerous Seth is a temptation she can't refuse. But then Seth walks out the door and out of her life.
Five years later, Honor is an operative with the elite Last Chance Rescue organization and Seth is a desperate ex-cop searching for his missing niece - one of many young women who have mysteriously vanished from college campuses. Going undercover, Honor will attract the maniacal cult leader behind the kidnappings and find a way to work with Seth.
Seth knows he had all the right reasons for the wrong he did five years ago. And from the moment he sees her - and takes her in his arms again - this former undercover man will risk everything for one more chance with Honor.

Good Monday Everyone!
Hope you had a great weekend. Can't wait to hear what great books you read last week.
As you know, I attended the RWA Conference in Atlanta last week and what a fabulous week it was. Seeing old friends, meeting new ones, and attending wonderful workshops were the highlights. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and learned so much.
I returned home, excited about so many things, including what lies ahead. Can't wait to share more with you!
Since the conference and other goings on occupied me from morning till night, I didn't have a chance to read anything. However, I did collect some amazing looking books and can't wait to dive in to them.
This week I'm making lots of different plans and writing, writing, writing. NOTHING TO LOSE is coming on strong. I've just met Grey Justice (I refer to him as the Noah McCall of the new series) and he is everything I wanted to him be and so much more. I cannot wait until you meet him, along with Nick Gallagher, who stole my heart five minutes after I met him. Sigh. :)
Sorry about another short post but hopefully you'll forgive me knowing that I'm concentrating on getting a new book out to you asap!
Have a great week all. And now, tell us what we should be reading!

Hope you had a fabulous weekend. Did you read something great? Can't wait to hear about it.
Today's post is a short one. I'm packing for RWA Nationals...leaving tomorrow morning. Don't forget if you're going to be there to stop by my table at the literacy signing Wednesday night and say hey. I'll have chocolate and books! Here are the details: Literacy Signing
I always get so energized and excited about the conference. A thousand or more people who love the written word all together in one place. Such fun!
Last week I mentioned that I was reading Kill Shot by Liliana Hart and was loving it. Well I finished it over the weekend and let me just say it was one of the best romantic suspense books I've read in a while. I love this author's writing style and her characters are wonderful. I highly recommend this book to all romantic suspense lovers.
Okay, that's it for me. Clothes to pack, nails to paint, and words to write. Still working on and thoroughly enjoying NOTHING TO LOSE. Can't wait till I can share some snippets with you.

Hope you had a fabulous weekend and in the U.S., a fantastic Independence Day. And thanks to those who commented on the blog about your favorite way to celebrate the 4th. Congrats to Laurie for winning the following: NO CHANCE, SECOND CHANCE, LAST CHANCE, a digital download of CHANCES ARE, a signed copy of Ella Grace's MIDNIGHT SECRETS, $15 Amazon gift card, and surprises! Yay, Laurie! Will contact you soon for prize delivery.
My family had planned our usual 4th get together but postponed it because of rain. We're still hoping we can get together but every single day, we've had rain. I think we might need to get together and start building an ark!
Since I couldn't be with my family, I spent most of the holiday with my new characters. NOTHING TO LOSE is coming along very well. And I'm almost to the point that when I read over what I've written, I don't sob. LOL As you might guess, this book is not a comedy. However, I do see an HEA on the horizon. But you know how I love to torture my characters. :)
I didn't read a lot last week, but did start a new book yesterday and am already enthralled. I think it was a book that someone recommended on my Facebook page--Kill Shot by Liliana Hart. Anyone read it? It starts off with an incredibly evil villain (which you know I love) and then introduces a tough but vulnerable heroine and a super sexy hero. Sigh... I can't wait to get back to it.
I'm going on a major writing binge this week. Next week I'll be at the RWA National Convention in Atlanta and I know I won't be able to write as much as I want. Will any of you be at the conference? If so, I hope you'll say hey if you see me. Would love to meet you!
Okay, that's it for me. I'm headed back to Kennedy and Nick in NTL. Can't wait to see what they're up to now!

Happy Birthday America and Happy LAST CHANCE Release Day in the UK!
Hey Everyone! Hope you're having a wonderful week and if you're in the United States, a fabulous Independence Day!
Since today is such a special day, celebrating America's birthday and the release of LAST CHANCE in the UK, I wanted to do something special to celebrate. Before we get to that, take a look at this gorgeous cover. Is it any wonder that McKenna fell in love with Lucas Kane? Sigh...
.jpg)
McKenna Sloan saved Lucas Kane's life and then vanished. Lucas moved mountains trying to find her again, and finally McKenna relented - for one fleeting night. The truth is, McKenna's life is all about the dark, deception-filled world of Last Chance Rescue, and for her, there's no hope of love or Lucas. But fate, and Lucas's determination, soon change everything. A kidnapped young woman, a lure to out a killer and the fierce need to bring a criminal to justice combine for one explosive event. For a woman who specializes in staying away from relationships and staying in the heart of danger, this is the most impossible mission of all. Because the odds are deadly, and the passion won't die.
So let's celebrate America's birthday and LAST CHANCE's release with a giveaway! And with such a large prize, will have to make it for U.S. residents only.
Prize includes: a signed copy of NO CHANCE, SECOND CHANCE, and LAST CHANCE, a signed copy of Ella Grace's MIDNIGHT SECRETS, a digital download of CHANCES ARE, a $15 Amazon gift card, and some surprises!
How to win? Just tell me your favorite way to celebrate America's birthday and your email address. Winner will be announced here on Recommend Monday, July 8. Please don't forget to leave your email address so I can get in touch with you!
Have a fabulous 4th everyone!
