Also, new formats http://tessadare.com/2012/03/20/one-week-until-wicked-also-new-formats/ http://tessadare.com/2012/03/20/one-week-until-wicked-also-new-formats/#comments Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:25:05 +0000 Tessa http://tessadare.com/?p=1760 Release date for A Week to be Wicked is just seven short days away! Encouraging reviews keep popping up at sites like The Romance Reviews and All About Romance. At midnight on release day, I'll be posting a special little contest called "Colin Kept Me Up All Night" for those excited to read the book right away. Stay tuned for more info.

Psst, did you notice the cover for A Lady by Midnight has been posted? Whew! Hot stuff. :)

Lastly, I'm excited to announce that some of my titles are available in new formats. For the first time, one of my books is available in hardcover large print--A Night to Surrender. (A Week to be Wicked will eventually be available in this format, too.) And One Dance with a Duke is now available as an audiobook from Audible!

I'm doing the reverse--emerging from the writing cave (and there was precious little sleeping going in there, trust me :) ). I've turned in the manuscript for my next book, hurrah! And while I wait for revisions from my editor, I finally have some time to gear up for the holidays and, oh yes, update the website. A few sneak peeks at the new book are posted here! I wish you all a wonderful holiday season with your loved ones.

Fall is my favorite season, even with the milder version we get here in Southern California. I've updated the blog with some answers to readers' questions - namely, How do you solve a problem like Claudia? and What's Next?

To say it's been a whirlwind year would be a vast understatement! I fly out today to cap it with a wonderful week at the Romance Writers of America conference in Orlando, where Surrender of a Siren is a finalist for the RITA award. Unbelievable. I feel blessed and so grateful to all my family, friends, and readers. Thank you!
