Release Day!
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.

Tempt Me With Darkness in Publisher’s Weekly!
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!

FAQ Section
The promised FAQ section is now at the bottom of my About Shayla page. I’ll add to is as more FAQs come my way. In the meantime, I answer burning questions like, why such a long wait for Luc, when with DANGEROUS BOYS AND THEIR TOY be available as an eBook and who sang the song in your DECADENT trailer. Enjoy!

DB&TT PRINT BOOK?
I’m receiving new inquiries every day about a print book for DANGEROUS BOYS AND THEIR TOY. I’m thrilled at the interest! I had such a wonderful time writing the story and want to share it with the rest of the world. Unfortunately, I don’t have a print date for the book at this time. The sole discretion to print an eBook rests with the publisher, and their decision to do so is based on eBook sales. As soon as I receive new information, I will update my site. In the meantime, you’re always welcome to contact the publisher directly at Paperbacks@ellorascave.com.

Yesterday, my Pocket editor and I hammered out new titles for Doomsday Brethren books 2 and 3. October 2009, you’ll have SEDUCE ME IN SHADOW and November 2009 will bring POSSESS ME AT MIDNIGHT. I’m really thrilled with the new titles. Um…now I just need to start writing.
