Happy New Year! I’m thrilled to report that TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS has been nominated for best novel (other genres) on the popular online reader site Preditors & Editors. If you have a spare second, please click and vote for the book. Yippee!

Yippee! TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS has received a Recommend Read from Joyfully Reviewed. Here’s what they said:

“Tempt Me with Darkness is a delicious cocktail of passion, romance, and mystical power with a twist of evil goodness. It’s intoxicating. I can’t wait for the next Doomsday Brethren novel!”

Also, DANGEROUS BOYS AND THEIR TOY’s cover recieved a nomination for the best erotic cover of the year from Erotic Horizons!

Happy 2009!

I conferred with my Berkley editor, and it’s official! The title for my September 2010 erotic romance (Hunter Edgington’s story) will be SURRENDER TO ME! I’m very excited because I think it totally fits. Hope you like it too!

My first Doomsday Brethren novel, TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS, has been nominated by Rhapsody Book Club for Best New World! Voting will continue through November, I believe. If you’re a Rhapsody member, PLEASE VOTE!!

I finished! SEDUCE ME IN SHADOW is now with my editor after I finished it last Wednesday. This hero and heroine are quite different from Marrok and Olivia. The story itself is totally different. For those of you who have written to tell me your Doomsday Brethren favorites, they’re all here, so you’ll see more of Ice and Bram. Shock has more tricks up his sleeve. Lucan and Anka…yes, you’ll get more on that situation too. As the book winds its way through production, I’ll keep you posted. Currently, we’re on schedule for a 10/09 release.

In other news, DECADENT is now available in a Kindle version! It’s only been a year since the book released (LOL), but for those of you who have been asking for an ebook, here’s one version. I haven’t seen any others yet, but if those come up, I’ll post about it.

The reissue of STRIP SEARCH is also available here for pre-order at Amazon.com. The book will be re-released next July with a spiffy new cover, which Berkley is currently finalizing.

Stay turned. More to come!

The site changes are all over AND there’s also a change to one my booksignings. The October 18 booksigning at the Lewisville, TX Barnes & Noble has been moved to November 1. The October contest is up. Don’t miss out! Also, on the Shelley Bradley side of things, the print version of THE LADY AND THE DRAGON released yesterday!

If you’re an avid e-book reader, like I am, here are a few new versions of TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS for you:

Amazon Kindle version available here
MobiPocket version available from Fictionwise
Sony Reader version available here.

If e-reading is your thing, go forth and enjoy!

TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS is out today!! I’m already hearing from folks all over who say it’s stocked on the local bookstore’s shelves. Yippee! I’ll be celebrating today…by working on a few blogs, interviews, and the next book. Look for me today on author blogs from Lara Adrian, Sasha White, Melissa Schroeder…and moi! Also, I’ll be chatting at Romance Junkies tomorrow. Stop by and wave at me. There are likely to be prizes involved too.

Oh, and speaking of Lara Adrian, she gave me the most fabulous quote for TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS:
“Tempt Me With Darkness is a hot, exciting romance filled with intriguing characters and a great storyline. I can’t wait for more in this imaginative, sizzling new series!”

Lara’s Midnight Breed series is one of my favorites, so this is a huge thrill for me!

Squee!! Now off to get busy.

I’ve posted the first chapter of TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS for your reading pleasure. Click here to read it. I hope you enjoy! Only a few days until the book releases…

O.M.G. Publisher’s Weekly reviewed Tempt Me With Darkness! Wow.

For those of you who don’t know, Publisher’s Weekly is a trade magazine for the publishing industry. They don’t review many genre novels, and I don’t know this personally, but I hear they aren’t always glowing in their reviews. But I got a great quote! “This orgasmic paranormal…will have Black’s fans panting for the next installment.” Yippee!
