May 2, 2008: Plaza&Janes has bought, Angel in My Bed for
Spanish publication. This is the fourth book of mine they
will publish. I love this publisher. Angel in My Bed (a HOLT
Medallion Winner and a Romantic Times reviewer nominated
book) is the fourth book in my Donally Family series and the
first book in my Charmed and Dangerous, Mission Impossible
series. This book also features one of my most favorite
heroes next to Rory Jameson in Passion and Pleasure in
London.
**************************
March 2008: Wild and Wicked in Scotland has gone back
for a third printing. I am so glad my readers are enjoying
this book.
March 2008: The German edition of In My Heart is now out
and aptly renamed, Forever in My Heart. (Fur immer in
meinem Herzen)
March 2008: The Spanish edition of Must Have Been the
Moonlight is released. For my Spanish readers check out
Autoras en la Sombra ~ Criticas. I thought the publisher,
did a beautiful job on the packaging and the cover. (Plaza&
Janés)
In the meantime you can visit my Charmed and Dangerous
page to read the back cover copy for my upcoming book,
Passion and Pleasure in London. This book will finish this
exciting and fun series in September 2008. I have to say the
art department at Avon outdid itself this time. The cover is
beautiful.

inheritance. Winter Ashburn is sick of the
injustices committed against her and her
people by her aristocratic uncle. Seeking
revenge for the excess around her, she takes a
page from Robin Hood’s book, pilfering from the
wealthy at local inns. When Rory is injured

to face with the consequences of her actions -
and with a man who will change her life forever.
