Dear friends and family~
Happy Valentine's Day!
And congratulations to Barbara Kaufman from Bowie, Maryland, the January winner of my TEMPTING JULIANA sweepstakes. Barbara, your sterling silver quizzing glass is on its way to you.
All entries are being held until the end of the sweepstakes in April, so if you entered but haven't won yet, you still have three more chances. If you still haven't entered, hurry on over to http://www.LaurenRoyal.com and click "Sweepstakes" on the menu to get your name into the drawing.
Last week I received the back cover text for my upcoming October book, THE ART OF TEMPTATION, so I thought I'd share...
-----------------
Lauren Royal delivers the highly anticipated conclusion to her acclaimed Sweet Temptations trilogy, starring an unconventional couple who are about to be tempted by the most conventional emotion of all--love...
Although he has a bevy of beautiful admirers, all Sean Delaney cares about is securing a divorce--for his sister, that is. That's why he's impersonating John Hamilton, her famous painter husband. It's the only way the rotter will agree to a divorce. Little does Sean realize that duping Hamilton's dying uncle will require the help of the very woman who can inspire him to get down on one knee...
Budding artist Lady Corinna Chase never had an interest in getting married. But as the only person privy to Sean's secret, she's more than happy to help him pull off his hoax. Until, that is, she realizes she's met a man who might actually tempt her into tying the knot...
------------------
I hope all of you find that "tempting" (ha!). Next month, I hope to have the actual cover to share.
Valentine's Day has me thinking of romance, which has me thinking of...Jane Austen. (Probably because I'm currently writing romance novels set in her time period. <grin>) My "Website Find" for this month is the "Jane Austen Heroines Quiz" at http://www.strangegirl.com/austenquiz/. Take it to see which of Jane's heroines you're most like. According to the quiz, I am Elizabeth Bennet. Somehow I'm not sure my family would agree!
This Saturday, February 17, I'll be signing books at the Queen Mary Scottish Festival in Long Beach, California. For more information and a link to the festival's site, visit the Calendar page at http://www.LaurenRoyal.com. I hope to see some of you there!
I wish you a Valentine's Day filled with love, laughter, and dreams come true...
Hugs,
~Lauren
