My Latest Interview (and Giveaway)

Stop on by today at Moonlight, Lace and Mayhem where I've given a blog interview. Make sure to go leave a comment, which will get you entered for one of two free copies of FRIENDS IN DEED which I'll be giving away. I'm headed off to work at the moment, but will be back to answer questions and respond to comments later today.

Enjoy!

Reviews!

Just discovered that Coffee Time Romance has given Friends in Deed a 5-cups (their highest) review...woo hoo!
Another excellent Aston West Tale from Mr. Hunter. Aston is a complex type of guy who usually has too close a relationship with both the bottle and his onboard computer. The twins are a twisted and vicious pair, which comes across clearly from the first time you meet them. I would recommend this space tale to any sci-fi fans.
