Happy Spring News!

Happy Spring!

How’s it going? Good, I hope! I’ve been writing like a beast. In fact, five Leanne Banks books will be published within 13 months starting in April 2008! I’m thrilled to announce that I’m launching a scandalicious new series from Silhouette Desire called “The Billionaire’s Club”. (Because a million just isn’t what it used to be.) The first title, BEDDED BY THE BILLIONAIRE, features a pregnant shero, a billionaire hero, secrets and forbidden passion. The book hits the stands April 8, so I hope you’ll read it and tell me what you think of it!

To celebrate the release of BEDDED BY THE BILLIONAIRE, I’m holding a Leanne Banks book and Godiva chocolate a day giveaway starting on April 1 (no fooling!). Isn’t that a great combination? Billionaires and chocolate? Don’t forget to enter. I’m also giving away a scandalicious t-shirt and Leanne Banks book for my monthly contest.

For those of you waiting for TROUBLE IN HIGH HEELS, I have more great news! I told you I’ve been working hard. I mailed the complete manuscript for this long-awaited book on December 31. Yes. New Year’s Eve. TROUBLE IN HIGH HEELS will hit the stands in March 2009. Before that, in August, another Billionaire’s Club story, THE BILLIONAIRE’S MARRIAGE BARGAIN, comes out in August 2008. In January, I’m launching a juicy multi-author continuity entitled The Hudsons of Beverly Hills. The third Billionaire’s Club book, BILLIONAIRE EXTRAORDINAIRE, will appear in May. Whew!
