May 2012

My plan had been to take some fabulous shots of the glorious Yorkshire countryside to share with you, but we have had more rain in April than ever before since records began, leading to flooding and misery for a great many people. Thankfully, things are on the up now, but I was stuck for a plan for this newsletter until the Sailor walked into my study and, acting in her usual prompt and efficient way, took matters out of my hands. 'No one wants to see boggy fields and grey skies mother,' she said, snatching up my phone. Snap! Snap!
Job done in ten seconds. 'What readers want to see mother, (I am reliably informed!) is the author at her desk and the author's faithful companion...' So that's what you're getting!
Thank you to the Sailor and to rest of my children for being for sensible and efficient while I sit here dreaming. And thank you, the reader, for giving me the excuse to sit here dreaming ;-)
I hope you enjoy our new Acosta couple, Nacho and Grace on the Acosta pages, realised by the fabulous Jo, and that you enjoy reading more Acosta stories in November and December this year. And while we're thanking Jo, I would like to thank Holly, my web mistress, for tirelessly updating my site - and usually at the last minute. So, three cheers for Holly. And I know Holly will love the shot of my faithful friend, Betty, as Holly is also a great dog lover, and I think she secretly likes these doggie shots best. Not much competition for Betty this month, Holly. I like her shot best too!!!

BOOK NEWS
Nacho and Grace's story, A Taste of the Untamed, will be a Mills and Boon Modern release in the UK in November 2012.
Lucia and Luke's story, The Man from her Wayward Past will be a December release for Mills and Boon Modern in the UK in December 2012, along with a re-release of Laying Down the Law, featuring that lusty legal eagle, Lorenzo Domenico and his lovable, accident-prone heroine, Carly Tate in the anthology, Say it with Diamonds.
And don't forget to revisit wicked Italian playboy, Rigo Ruggiero, and his Proud Miss Prim, in the anthology, Summer Surrender, a June 2012 release. Rigo and Katie's story is entitled, Italian Boss, Proud Miss Prim.
That's all for now. Wishing you all the most wonderful month of May, full of good things - warmth, friendship, companionship, and of course, love,
