THE THEORY OF ATTRACTION has won the 2012 Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice Award for best e-book erotic novella! “Theory” is also in the finals for a Colorado Romance Writers’ “Award of Excellence” and the Desert Rose RWA’s “Golden Quill” award. 
The “sequel” to THE THEORY OF ATTRACTION, THE SEDUCTION HYPOTHESIS, is available now! Order it on the Carina Press site, or from Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
Look for book three in the “Science of Temptation” series, in late 2013 or so.
I have a surprise Quickie (best kind!) out from Ellora’s Cave. INTERMEZZO is a short, sweet tale made of creamy vanilla fluff and disappointed ballerina dreams, featuring a broody composer hero and set in Paris. Fun for everyone!

And finally in news items: GOSSAMER WING, my new steampunk romance, will be out in November, 2013 from Berkley Sensation; it’s the first of my Steam & Seduction series. Click here for more details on the world of Steam & Seduction, and pre-order GOSSAMER WING today!
